Disable HUD
- The HUD and mini-map are extremely large and intrusive for this game. Ubisoft is reportedly working on a patch to allow incorporate optional settings for disabling UI elements; however, at this time, the only way to disable the HUD is by editing the .dll file with a Hex Editor program.
