I finally got my HUD back to normal. Ran into two errors though.

My radio text is displaying wrong. And my TNT icon is cut off.

Can anyone help me out with these?

Here's a pic:

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Its a custom hud thats why, uninstall it. Then you will get everything.

Yea i have the same, only I'm using the Bazooka Hud.

Bazooka, if you read this, could you tell me how to move the TNT icon to the space below the ammo icon on the right? Or even better, update your hud and release it to us! :)

I know..thats why I'm using it. It just needs to be tweaked out and that's what I'm asking help for. Or they may have to be re-done, I dunno.

Here's another problem with the scoreboard at rounds end:

I'm pretty sure this is Insane's hud found here:

Thanks for any help!

LOL!

I love update time :)

I have not had a look at the new files yet... just uninstall the custom stuff and use the standard one for now is my advice :)

I'll have a look at my custom huds soon... a day or two, right now... I want to play!

Sorry I can't be of more help... but new gameplay must come first :D

EDIT: I just played it with a standard lay-out... they have made some nice maps.

I was really hoping for some HUD improvements ... but it seems the hud just got a little more cluttered :(

Looks ok, easy to read, just a bit big.

agreed. is there any easy way to resize elements?

Also, can you get rid of teh kill indicators in teh top right by the map? I dont really need those.

thansk!

Yea, I've been using a custom HUD since I started DoD:S and now that it's become default again, I'm finding that I'm having major problems. When there are lots of kills (which is all the time) I lose the top right quarter of my entire screen to kill and capture messages. It's seriously bad.

I'd like to know how to scale them down and / or remove the backgrounds.

My hud tut's will have to be updated, but for the kills / deaths area it should be the same for the background see this page (http://dodbits.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=28&Itemid=37&limit=1&limitstart=4) and for the text in the kills / deaths area it is the same as the chat text if you need smaller text both the chat text and the kills/deaths will go smaller, see this page. (http://dodbits.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=28&Itemid=37&limit=1&limitstart=5)


There is also some config/console commands, but I don't know if they still work....

kills / deaths icon size Height and Width...


Off... "cl_deathicon_height 0; cl_deathicon_width 0"

small.... "cl_deathicon_height 6; cl_deathicon_width 19"

medium.... "cl_deathicon_height 12; cl_deathicon_width 38"

large... (default) "cl_deathicon_height 18; cl_deathicon_width 57"



You can also adjust the background Transparency with commands....

OFF... "cl_deathicon_bg_alpha 0"

light... "cl_deathicon_bg_alpha 3"

medium... (default) "cl_deathicon_bg_alpha 1"

Dark... cl_deathicon_bg_alpha 2


The time they display can also be adjusted....

OFF... "hud_deathnotice_time 0"

low... 0.5 seconds... "hud_deathnotice_time 0.5"

medium... 4 seconds.... "hud_deathnotice_time 4"

High.... 6 seconds... "hud_deathnotice_time 6"

Just create one. Whatever you place in there will over-ride the defaults.


Thanks for the help INsane. I'll give it a go :)

anyone been able to get a working No-death icons? its not working for me:(

Insane..i'm beggin ya! Please remake your awesome hud!....at your earliest convenience of course..:)

Thanks for helping peeps out with some resizing n such.

I have a feeling what I'm experiencing is going to probably need to get fixed in a remake. It's worth the wait though.

No problem Strafe I am free from work at last.. it is the weekend in Australia... friday afternoon.

Now, need Pizza... Pizza Hut has a meal deal with a copy of BF2.

Need Beer... got Fosters.

Need "Bundy" Rum and Cola Chaser.

Need not to play new DoD;S maps and make HUD....... :confused:

Oh well ... at least I have more beer.

odin318... "No-death icons?"

You doing that in a file or a console command?

email me if you like at ... insane@dodbits.com

ah wicked, looking forward to your new hud. I was playing without any hud at all, but now that doesn't work either:(

I love you INSane!!!

*Kisses HAWHAW*

Time for a BETA test anyone? ... this is not finished but all I have time for ATM.


Test this please guys... MOH HUD VER 2 (http://www.dodbits.com/downloads/HUD/MOH_VER_2.zip)

Thanks :D

Excellent! Tested quickly in Colmar, everything seemed to work fine.

Thanks a lot. Game looks good again. :D

Works a treat, thanks very much!

small hijack
i seem to have a problem with the added time on jagd, it isn't appearing anymore
(the +2:00 below the round time)
not that big of deal but it's still strange :)

i did add the new lines into the hudlayout.res and i can't really see what's wrong
anybody got a clue?

Could be the new entry in the ClientScheme.res file?

"TimerFontSmall"

See this page for details... Line 944-1006...

No not at all, place your ideas in a email :)

You could get a screenie and just do a rough guide in Microsoft Paint.... can be just a very rough lay-out of item positions.

Can you do your v5 hud too? That's what I used, I only ask because I'm trying to keep my DoD swastika-free.;)

Yes, going to sit down soon and do it... got some house work to do yet :)
