Welcome!

Alright, since your mind is set on this UI changing thing, the program is a good idea. But, instead of changing the UI, it could be a file in the mods folder.
For example,
Human: mods/Predator/view1.vpp
Predator: mods/Predator/view2.vpp
...remember that the mod that is running, the files in its folder have priority over the UI.vpp, so anything that is in the mods' files instantly gets read instead of the same files in the UI.
So if you want to be a Human, and have that view, your program can tell it to put in view1.vpp, and vice versa for the Predator view.
Also, did you think about team sizes? The only way this mod can possibly work properly is if you have it as Deathmatch-only. If not, what if everybody wants to be Predator and one person decides to be Human? 10v1 wouldn't be liked by the Human 
Reconsider using the things I have said and help make this mod work better!  |

What about Red Doom  Can it be "foxed" since it uses Doom
But seriously, how about we all agree on 1 thing, help with the idea. |

It doesnt matter what game you use. You could make a Simpsons mod, or AvsP mod on Duke Nukem and still face being foxed. I've been spending most of my forum time at moddb.com and have read many articles about modders being sued for using copyrighted material (particularly stuff owned by 20th Century FOX).... at least you would receive a Cease and Desist order, which would demand the immediate stoppage of all copyright breaching work.
Some websites have also been closed down for hosting files/mod which are breach of copyright... this is one of the reasons I've completely abandoned the Simpsons mod, as I would hate for Levels4you to be closed just because I want to make a simpsons character mod.
Anyway, obviously you can still work on a mod which uses copyright characters, but its risky, espeically if becomes well-known. Better to make a mod based on your favourite characters, but not actually use their proper names. i.e Predator Mod could be called "stalker" or something... and the "stalker" could look a bit different from the predator... then you still get to make a mod based on those characters but you dont have to worry about getting e-mails from lawyers |

Well if i change the name of mod to lets say "Hunt Mod" or something like that. Because Predator is invisible i dont use his skins or models. I could stop use pics of Predator in the mod. But the weapon models, are making them ilegal too?
If i wont use things i montioned mod will suck! |

Actually, Predator, can be used in the fact that an animal is a predator Also, what are the chances something here will get foxed?!
Just make it |
