Go to the RPG snippet, Tifu, has helped me to make a very good one, that you can hopefully incoproate into your game.

I didn't mean RPGamer's I meant Tifu's snippet, did you even bother to look through the whole thing, becuase Tifu's health bar was a perfect one.

I shall cry

It was far from perfect, simply two boxes creating a health bar... Using images and stretching or cropping it would create a much better graphical effect than this. But it does the job :p

It actually looks pretty neat if the two corners in the top of the bar is a bit darker than those in the bottom... Im going to use this one! Thats for sure!! THX!!
