In the game setup menu, you will find the following options which allow you to configure various aspects of the game, including special multiplayer-only features and control over the different types of information the game can display on-screen.

Crosshair

The crosshair option allows you to configure whether or not you want the in-game crosshair to be displayed. Available settings are off, on (100%), on (50%), and on (25%).

Level Stats

This option allows you to view your level statistics while ingame, including your number of kills out of the total enemies, the time elapsed, and the number of secrets found.

Screen Size

Don't confuse this with the screen reslution. Rather, this option adjusts the size of your field of view (FOV) and enables you to switch between three modes for your heads up display (HUD). At the third to maximum size, a detailed hud will cover a complete portion of the bottom of the screen, while a more compact display containing only your health and ammo is available at the second to maximum size (which also gives you a better view of your weapon). Finally, if you increase your screen size as much as possible, you will receive no information at all, implying your HUD is completely hidden.
