HP (& radiation) bar disappeared from the screen!

[OneMug]

While revisiting the cleared Federal Tunnel to pick up some items I had to leave, I noticed that I no longer had a HB Bar on the screen. I went back 6 saves and, altho' I had the bar when I saved each one of them, I now didn't. On the 7th save back, I had a bar, so started over from there.

Then I exited the game & validated my data on steam, which reported nothing had to be fixed. I restarted Steam and FO 4. Tried my glitched saves again. Still no HP bar.

So I wasted all of last night's adventuring (mostly re-saving settlers (groan!) and lost about half a level up that I had achieved.

Has anyone lost the HP & Rads bar or other parts of their HUD? If so, were you able to fix the glitch and regain your progress?

The HP bar dissapears when you are at full health.

Its part of the 'immersion' that having no ability to see what your stats are at a glance is supposed to bring. Same thing as in Skyrim.

[OH]

lol OP, have you not played Skyrim?

Incunabulum...that's a book, printed before 1500 or so!. Your name kinda rolls off the tongue melliflously. I like it.

Thanks for the info. I didn't notice that. Not in Skyrim either! How unobservant of me.

I sneak around without my full HPs quite a lot. I can frequently find beds to heal me up rather than use stimpacks. I clean the bad guys out a ways, then go back and take a nap. Havent been killed yet. Not like the old timey RPG/D&D games, when you could sleep in a dungeon but could be attacked any time at great disadvantage to your party.

It'd be a heck of a lot more exciting waking up to ghouls or radiers..
