I have to focus the tf2 window to reload the hud, tf2 resets the mouse position and 4Hud sets it back to the value before. But that only happens once when you reload the hud, I'm not really sure what happened there, maybe tf2 was in focus or something.

v0.1.2

I changed the way highlighting gets triggered so switching tabs of large files is significantly faster and scrolling really fast does not keep the editor from redrawing.

This is the future. When are you going to upload that?

The thing is that it still needs a lot of work. Right now it only loads custom main menu controls and moving objects doesn't really do anything. I'm currently focusing on other things, it'll take some time.

Here is an updates screenshot of the main menu editor, it'll be included in the next version, it will only work as a main menu viewer right now!

Ok. Using this, im trying to make a button, that, when pressed, connects to a server, but its not working. Im using ZIMHUD.

copy from "gamemenu.res"

 "KOTPConnectButton"
    {
        "label" "kotp"
        "command" "engine connect 80.232.169.233:27015"

    }

Button is made in menu, but it doesnt work. What im doing wrong?

EDIT: IT WORKS.

update v0.13

- Added file icons

http://puu.sh/4lbWb.png

- Changed some default actions for files
- Filelist: If a expand a folder that contains only a folder, that folder will also be expanded (please understand me >.>)

Check out the steam group here!

I'm having some trouble getting this downloaded, I can only get about 86kb of the file before it decides that it cuts off and says it's done.

I'm not sure why that happens but the download is also weird for me, it instantly downloads which is impossible with the servers bandwidth I'm gonna check that.

hm, two months since the last update

v0.14

• You can make lines that overlay the embeded tf2 window via the gray new bar, left click creates lines, right click deletes all, you make/delete blue lines if you hold the control key.

• Colors now get highlighted with the... colors (only work if the color is completely on-screen)

• Instead of selecting the path to the hud you can now select the path to your tf/custom directory and 4Hud will scan it for huds.
  
• 4Hud finally uses the new folder chooser if you're running Windows Vista or higher.

how usable is the main menu editor? I had issues last time I tried to use it.

It doesn't work at all

The hud editor won't launch. Im on windows xp if it helps.

It keeps crashing when i select a place to locate the HUD files. Anyone got a fix?

I'm having some trouble getting the files into the editors. No matter which side I instruct it to go on, it doesn't load any files. Am I doing something wrong?

EDIT: You have to put the HUD in your custom folder to work, attempting to open the HUD outside that directory will cause it not to work.

Download the installer from here

After that should work.

any future updates to this? was really excited to see this and just want to know if anything else is coming

I have a bunch of projects right now and this editor is the least important for me to finish since it is already a proper application and I don't see any features that would be easy to implement and at the same time be rewarding. When I started making this editor I wanted to parse the hud files in order to provide autocompletion for color names, font names etc. but I ended up not implementing autocompletion at all. The line thing and the color highlighting were things that interesting and easy to make.

If someone has any suggestions that'll improve this tool, post them here or even better add me so I'll get the message for sure and maybe we can discuss it :)

If there are people who want to contribute to this project I could also release it as open source...

I quickly copied the theme system from 4Script, I don't really wanna spend my time editing color sets tho. So here is a modified version of 4hud, the colors in "4Hud theme.txt" are mostly gray and don't fit at all, it'd be nice if someone could make a proper theme and post it here or send it to me <3

yup, I can do that

v 1.0

• Fixed the editor not loading files when a direct hud path is selected
  
• Added themes
  
• Changed some misc stuff

It'd be nice if an admin could remove the "beta" from the title :>

Done. Looking forwards to using this.

Hey four, it's been awhile since anyone's posted in this thread, or since you've updated the program.

Do you still plan to add the main menu editor into the program by chance? I think it would be an awesome feature, since the menu is the biggest pain the ass, since you can't hud_reloadscheme on the title screen, and have to reserve to starting your game over and over and over until you get it right.

And again, thanks so much for making this!

No, it'd be too much work and I have a ton of projects that I wanna work on. sry :x

Hi, four. I'm not sure if this is a bug related to your program, but sometimes when I open up 4HUD, it doesn't appear. The alttab scrollthrough shows its existence and that Aero peek thing, the taskbar, and the task manager says it's there, but it is not. It's as if it is running invisibly. I run one monitor.

I'm not sure why this would happen but if it doesn't always happen and you can deal with it I'd say that I can't do anything about it

I mentioned to four about this before. It seems like it occurs extremely rarely. What i did to fix it was to redownload 4plug and delete the one that you currently have. Seems to fix it.

Update v1.01

4Hud is now Open Source ^.^
Check out the repo here: https://github.com/fourtf/4Hud

Changes:
- Added "select" text to the buttons in the Hud Select Menu
- Added Settings item to the menu again
