Changes to Round Timers
Round Timers have been heavily changed in this update, and as a result, will not show up unless you update your files. resource/ui/hudobjectivestatus.res has been basically wiped as a file (which makes me wonder why it exists anymore), and has been replaced by resource/ui/hudmatchstatus.res.

It's not all bad, however. You can actually copy the entire "ObjectiveStatusTimePanel" element inside resource/ui/hudobjectivestatus.res and replace the element with the same name inside resource/ui/hudmatchstatus.res. However, you may have to adjust the timer accordingly to the new Matchmaking UI.

You also need to add hudmatchstatus to your hudlayout.res file

HudMatchStatus
{
"fieldName" "HudMatchStatus"
"visible" "1"
"enabled" "1"
"xpos" "0"
"ypos" "0"
"zpos" "2"
"wide" "f0"
"tall" "f0"
}

Popped right back on after I added hudmatchstatus to my hudlayout so I think people are skipping that part.

You can go into tf2_misc_dir.vpk inside the tf2 tf folder and search for hudmatchstatus.res and use that or get it from rayshud or flamehud or another updated hud.
