does anyone know if %servertimelimit% functions anywhere besides hudobjectivetimelabel hudobjectivestatus and scoreboard?

or is it possible to have 2 objects in hudlayout with the same fieldname display simultaneously? like two hudobjectivestatus's with different xpos's and wide values?

also what does adding 'f' to a wide value change and are there other modifiers you can use? I can't find any documentation for anything anywhere ever

Does anyone know what breaks a HUD for use in OS X? I assume it's related to fonts, but can anyone tell me how to fix it? Also, does it break for Linux too?

of course it is, that's how we have shadows

wrong, nope. having identical fieldnames results in the last-read (lowest in hudlayout.res) instance of the control being the one applied onscreen. shadows are made with modified fieldnames, e.g. AmmoInClipShadow.

So how did you solve the greentext problem?

Is there a way atm to turn the sentry shells and rockets bar to real numbers
I saw something like this: http://files.gamebanana.com/img/ss/guis/23826b.jpg
and i thought why not have numbers instead of bars

Just change the name of the panel/fieldname of the stat value if you want to fix it boys.

Can confirm that it works!

Probably asked before, but couldn't find it..

I put spec_extras in spectator.res, but only the playerhealthbars show up. Outlines and names don't. Are there other files?

Change it to what?

Anything, as long as it's not the same as another panel. Call it "fuckboi", the HUD still reads it. Magic, that.

This was mentioned a page or two back, you need to make sure you have the font defined in clientscheme.res. Can't remember what it's called off the top of my head though.

After I changed the labels, my scoreboard looks like this, but it fixes after I do a hud_reloadscheme (needs to be redone everytime I restart the game). Ideas?

Pastebin your scoreboard, I can't imagine how you've managed that.

Does anyone know how to change the item quality borders in the backpack back to how they were pretty gun mettle? At the moment the quality border only shows when you mouse over the item but I would prefer it to show all the time.

I have tried removing the backpack panel.res from my HUD folder but that didn't fix it.

Sorry if this has already been asked

Thanks, that fixed the playername. Any idea about the outline?
It's not really an outline, but rather overlays the whole playermodel with red/blue and the screen is way darker.

is it possible to edit the size of the vaccinator resist icon that shows up when you're being healed? I can only figure out how to enlarge the one that shows up when Im healing someone else.

It's located in HudPlayerHealth, about halfway in. PlayerStatus_MedicUberBulletResistImage, PlayerStatus_MedicUberBlastResistImage, PlayerStatus_MedicUberFireResistImage for ubered. PlayerStatus_MedicSmallBulletResistImage, PlayerStatus_MedicSmallBlastResistImage, PlayerStatus_MedicSmallFireResistImage for passive.

I thought he was referring to displaying the same values, not using the same object name. Am I getting my terms mixed up?

That is the most beautiful scoreboard I've ever seen

I was aiming for subtle changes, like changing KillsLabel to Kills (being different from other fields) and the result was the one mentioned. Changing to something completely different fixed it. Weird outcome, though.

That's because there's already a Kills label. You've overridden them. Call them KillsLabel2, for example.

I tried Kills*something* several times and left the Kills below as it was by default, but the text would always vanish, unless I did a hud_reloadscheme. Then I tried putting something completely unrelated and it worked. Quite weird.

Either way, thanks for helping!

Has anyone been able to make a horizontal health meter out of a ContinuousProgressBar? Is it possible?

I tried making a new meter element - didn't work. I tried converting HudPlayerHealth from an EditablePanel to a ContinuousProgressBar - didn't work.

For some huds the custom backgroud is high quality when loading at the start but degrades in quality when at main menu, while others like 7hud manages to retain the quality in main menu. What causes this?

Colly did something similar, I'm not sure how he did it though.

Funny thing I asked the same thing to myself yesterday. Found a solution but you need a program called VTFEdit.

Find and open your custom background .vtf file using VTFEdit and make sure you have settings ticked just like the example screenshot below. Save and close it, then it should work!

The background quality changes with respect to your screen resolution/quality of material etc. What this method does it to force the high quality background despite which video settings you use by clamping!

(I don't know how to quote properly so whatever /_-)

Interesting. Changing my vtf files causes it to go complete black background (when on main menu; loads fine).

For some vtf's it doesn't let me to tick the eight bit alpha (format specific) which in some others it's already ticked! Any idea?

8-bit alpha is used for transparency of the material. In this case @rewolf you don't have the correct colour (mostly black/white) for your alpha channel and @Slayer6 you don't even have the alpha channel. Since these are main menu background I guess you don't really much need the 8-bit alpha channel ticked.

How can I add the last damage dealt to a hud? (specifically zhud if it's any different I have no idea)
