You want to look for HudDamageAccount, iirc. I can't remember on the top of my head what it looks like inside the file however. Have a play around with it.

basically when you install custom huds, if you don't include a file that tf2 needs then it just uses the default version of the file. that way you can have a resource/ui folder with nothing but a custom HudDamageAccount.res
"Resource/UI/HudDamageAccount.res"
{
"CDamageAccountPanel"
{
"fieldName" "CDamageAccountPanel"
"text_x" "0"
"text_y" "0"
"delta_item_end_y" "0"
"PositiveColor" "0 255 0 255"
"NegativeColor" "0 255 0 255"
"delta_lifetime" "2"
"delta_item_font" "HudFontMediumBigBold"
"delta_item_font_big" "HudFontMediumBigBold"
}
}
that should work fine, I haven't tested it though

in case you just want a quick way for some different dmg numbers here is the default hud w/large yellow numbers. http://tf2.gamebanana.com/guis/22816

Rambadiliansorry for bumping an old thread, and sorry for the dumb question, but is there a way to make it so it shows the last damage done as well?
