Default Hud Tweak

#1

So ever since the last update the custom hud I used has been broken. I've been using the default hud and I kind of like it, with the exception of the last damage done numbers (they are really hard to see a lot of the time).

What would be the easiest way to modify only that part of the hud? Can I just copy and paste the damageaccount.res from another custom hud, or is it more complicated than that?

It's more complicated because it would use a different font
I could make a quick huddamageaccount.res file for you which uses a font already in tf2 if you like

All I would really want to have changed is the color to yellow, green, or purple.

"Resource/UI/HudDamageAccount.res"
{
    "CDamageAccountPanel"
    {
        "fieldName"             "CDamageAccountPanel"
        "text_x"                "0"
        "text_y"                "0"
        "delta_item_end_y"      "0"
        "PositiveColor"         "0 255 0 255"
        "NegativeColor"         "255 255 0 255"
        "delta_lifetime"        "2.0"
        "delta_item_font"       "HudFontMedium"
        "delta_item_font_big"   "HudFontMedium"
    }
}

Just put it in resource/ui and call it HudDamageAccount.res

You can change the damage numbers by editing 'NegativeColor', they're in the format RGB Transparency. I made them yellow.

[code]"Resource/UI/HudDamageAccount.res"
{
"CDamageAccountPanel"
{
"fieldName" "CDamageAccountPanel"
"text_x" "0"
"text_y" "0"
"delta_item_end_y" "0"
"PositiveColor" "0 255 0 255"
"NegativeColor" "255 255 0 255"
"delta_lifetime" "2.0"
"delta_item_font" "HudFontMedium"
"delta_item_font_big" "HudFontMedium"
}
}

I think you need to make the font bigger, not sure tho.
