I messed arround with the .res files and created a smaller less intruding HUD. Here is a screen....



And here to download:

http://rapidshare.de/files/5733188/JohnWolf-HUD.rar.html

to instal simply decompres in:

SteamApps/day of defeat source/dod/

overwrite if prompted, but back up your originals just in case....

I hope someone likes it :D :D

Awesome. Do you know how to delete the HUD completley? I really want to know how to do that.

Great job John, you got my download.

Nice.. I'm using.. Thanks

To delete the hud completly, open this file with a text editor:

dod/Resource/UI/HudPlayerStatusPanel.res

find every entry wich sais:

"visible" "1"
"enabled" "1"

and change it to:

"visible" "0"
"enabled" "0"

That will disable all the lower hud, to disable the icons, and death mesage, open:

\dod\scripts\HudLayout.res

find this:

HudCapturePanel
{
"fieldName" "HudCapturePanel"
"xpos" "c-75"
"ypos" "c80"
"wide" "150"
"tall" "90"
"visible" "1"
"enabled" "1"
"icon_space" "2"
}
HudObjectiveIcons
{
"fieldName" "HudObjectiveIcons"
"xpos" "0"
"ypos" "0"
"wide" "600"
"tall" "200"
"visible" "1"
"enabled" "1"
"iconsize" "24"
"icon_start_x" "5"
"icon_start_y" "5"
"separator_width" "2" // distance between the icons (including their backgrounds)
"CornerCutSize" "0"
"BackgroundOverlap" "-1" // amount the background overlaps the icons (width and height)
}
HudDeathNotice
{
"fieldName" "HudDeathNotice"
"visible" "1"
"enabled" "1"
"xpos" "r640"
"wide" "640"
"tall" "480"

"MaxDeathNotices" "4"
"LineHeight" "20"
"RightJustify" "1" // If 1, draw notices from the right

"TextFont" "ChatFont"
"CTTextColor" "CT_Blue"
"TerroristTextColor" "T_Red"

"BackgroundColor" "0 0 0 0"
"ActiveBackgroundColor" "HudBackgroundActiveSolid"
}

And change every enable and visible to 0, that should do it, i have not tried it....

/Using.

Excellent. Definatly going to use.

Thanks a ton.

Thanks john the HUD is finally gone!!

Excellent work!

Excellent.

Perfect! Just what I've been looking for.

Good Job.

This is nice! kinda has the old-DoD feel...in a sense. Either way, good job =)

ok so i have a simple question:) how do u change the colors and stuff in the hud. What programs do u use. Cuz source is way different then the old dod where all u needed was a sprite explorer and photoshop:) If i know how to modify the hud ill be making the original dod hud to source.

Check this tutorial

http://www.dayofdefeat.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=55151

Nicely done, glad my tuorial came in handy, you chould post this in the tutorial thread too.

There's some swatstika stuff in these packs..

Ok, I am happy with the HUD at this point save a couple of tiny items.

1) How do you turn off background to death messages

2) In last pic, notice I am pointing at teammate. How do you turn off the text to show their name and health.

3) How do you turn off background to objectives. (does anyone have american flag obj icon?)

4) I put fire select all to zero, but I still see it, WTF? Someone clue me in here.

Here's your US objective icon.

http://halflife2.filefront.com/file/DoD_Source_Replacement_Icons;47966

The other stuff I have no clue.

To turn off the background in death messages, open dod\scripts\HudLayout.res and find this:

HudDeathNotice
{
"fieldName" "HudDeathNotice"
"visible" "1"
"enabled" "1"
"xpos" "r640"
"wide" "640"
"tall" "480"

"MaxDeathNotices" "4"
"LineHeight" "20"
"RightJustify" "1" // If 1, draw notices from the right

"TextFont" "ChatFont"
"CTTextColor" "CT_Blue"
"TerroristTextColor" "T_Red"

"BackgroundColor" "0 0 0 0"
"ActiveBackgroundColor" "HudBackgroundActiveSolid"
}

This line sets the background for other people death messages, if you set the 4th number to 0, you make it transparent:

"BackgroundColor" "0 0 0 0"

This line is the same but for your kills/caps:

"ActiveBackgroundColor" "HudBackgroundActiveSolid"

To make both transparent these lines should look like this:

"BackgroundColor" "0 0 0 0"
"ActiveBackgroundColor" "0 0 0 0"

For objective Icon background find in the same file, this:

HudObjectiveIcons
{
"fieldName" "HudObjectiveIcons"
"xpos" "0"
"ypos" "0"
"wide" "600"
"tall" "200"
"visible" "1"
"enabled" "1"
"iconsize" "24"
"icon_start_x" "5"
"icon_start_y" "5"
"separator_width" "2" // distance between the icons (including their backgrounds)
"CornerCutSize" "0"
"BackgroundOverlap" "-1" // amount the background overlaps the icons (width and height)
}

In "BackgroundOverlap" set it to -1, 0 could work too, i dont remember....

About the Name of the teammates, i have no idea, its driving me mad :mad: :mad:

About fire select, try this. In HudLayout.res turn fireselects enable and visible to 0, and in this file:
dod/Resource/UI/HudPlayerStatusFireSelect.res
Turn all enables and visibles to 0.....

If you go to advanced options and uncheck "center player names" it will display the name of the player at the bottom of screen,

It was behind my HUD on Source after i unchecked it, but i'm sure it was bottom center on DoD :confused:

At least it gets rid of the huge writing center screen.

Ah, Thank you both very much. This game is starting to look good now.:D Same proccess every major release...

Agreed.

You don;t need to delete the hud just type cl_drawhud 0 in console, it might be cl_showhud, one or the other . . .

I really want this hud, it looks great. But i cant use rapideshare, it sucks ass.
can some one put up a different mirror?
:)
