When looking through .res files, I have a limited idea of what each configuration is for. Are .res settings documented anywhere, or is everybody just doing their own trial and error?
The reverse would also be nice -- It'd be amazing to have an image of a HUD and have some indication of where edits to that element live.
I'm just trying to edit the y positioning of the healing target... I have no idea what to edit.

Yeah, it's way out dated and is not comprehensive at all.
Where in huds.tf can I find this info? Or are you suggesting to go on the forums there...

try messing with those fields within hudlayout.res
Also as far as a collection of stuff from what different hud things do, I personally have done one of 3 things:
- Do the painful trial and error process of attempting to have things work and eventually I'll get an idea of what I'm doing even though there are a number of things that I'm still not very knowledgeable about in the field of hud stuff
- Ask a question within this thread
- Look through some of the resources that flatline listed alongside some other ones that weren't listed

allows you to edit res files and the do hud_reloadscheme to see the changes, for most .res files at least. without it you have to restart the game every time you want to see the changes

I have vgui_cache_res_files 1 and I've always been able to use hud_reloadscheme, literally didn't even know this was a command

Doesn't raysfire have a bunch of videos on how to make/edit a hud on his youtube channel?
