probably been asked before, but what do I need to change to make my low ammo indicator flash sooner?

editing for clarity

Is it possible to recreate the HealthDeathWarning field and value found in hudplayerhealth.res and add something similar to make my low ammo indicator go off sooner?

Does anyone know how to move ALL the building files so they are in a different hud position, but all the buildings are also in order?
Also, does anyone know how to move the voice chat box?

Konceptwhat field within hudtournament.res controls the positioning of the player icons showing if they're readied up or not for pugchamp and faceit?

HudTournament.res > "playerpanels_kv" and various other elements with if_readymode
Editing can be done on a local server with mp_tournament_readymode 1 or from a demo recorded during pregame.

@Dtbr: BuildingStatus_Engineer in HudLayout.res moves everything in one go (and afaik there is no way possible to change building order)
Chat box is moved in HudBaseChat.res and also in a hudanimations file controlling the movement during/after ready up in Casual/MM

I've isolated the file that is affecting my problem on what displays and doesn't display the checkboxes for casual MM to be the clientscheme.res file. I just can't figure out what I should be adding to my clientscheme.res to make the checkboxes show up.
What I have right now: https://postimg.org/image/71mzuldzh/

Can anyone tell me the exact part I need to just turn on checkboxes for map selection? I been looking through it here but can't figure it out.

@Magikarp Check your MatchmakingCategoryMapPanel.res file instead of the clientscheme

Also update your url to this: https://github.com/SteamDatabase/GameTracking-TF2/tree/master/tf/tf2_misc_dir for the current game files

@Koncept I'm 99% sure that is caused by using the high quality item images and resizing them. The skins and festivized weapons don't resize properly automatically anymore since the Smissmas update. The transparency on it is caused by not having "use_item_rendertarget" "0" in the itemmodelpanel section.

Taunt menu is hudlayout.res > HudMenuTauntSelection for positioning and HudMenuTauntSelection.res to customize the look (which would have been easily found by looking for 'taunt' in the default files ;) )

Dunno if it's been asked before, but is it possible to add a hud element that shows the number of alive players on each team? Yeah I know that hitting tab and taking a quick glance isn't rocket science but it would still be pretty neat to have this.

How can I add a health cross to a HUD that doesn't have one (m0reHUD in this case).
m0reHUD already has a health cross, but it's one of those where the health number is inside the cross.
But what I want is one where the number is next to the cross.

Can't seem to figure out what I have to change to get the numbers outside of the cross when I using m0reHUDs health cross customization file.
Also tried copying parts of the hudplayerhealth files from other HUDs that have the kinda cross I want into my HUD, but that didn't work either.

Move the numbers with playerstatushealthvalue and playerstatushealthvalueshadow

If your numbers get cut off you're going to have to change the size of the hudplayerhealth panel (I think you change this within hudlayout.res but I'm on vacation currently and don't have my files in front of me currently)

To add the physical health cross look at the playerstatushealthimage field. You're going to want to change the visible, enabled, and possibly wide and tall valies

@typto try modifying \materials\vgui\damageindicator.vtf to be purple, move it to the replay thumbnails folder and point the vmt for the original damage indicator there and hope it works. I tried color overrides for HudDamageIndicator in hudlayout.res, but they didn't seem to work

Take the font you want, open it in fontforge or whatever font editor you want, edit the - glyph so that it's 0 units wide and completely blank (don't just delete the glyph, because then it once it's actually used it'll default to Arial's glyph instead), and rename the font and save it as something new so you can put it inside clientscheme and everything like normal.

I duplicated the element by changing the field name but referencing the same control name and later changed the font. However, I encountered some issue when trying to put the element close to the crosshair. When I set ypos to -30, the second element began to be cut off and would disappear if I positioned it any higher. I attempted to raise the zpos up to 10, but it made no difference. How do I prevent the percentage from disappearing/cut off? How could I increase the size of the font?

It's not a zpos issue, that just says what should overlap what else. It's an issue with trying to position the label outside the panel's bounds.

In hudlayout, decrease HudMedicCharge's ypos, and increase its tall value by the same amount. Then go into hudmediccharge.res and change everything's ypos by the same amount too. Everything should look the same after doing that, but you should have more room to position your second charge label higher.

I was wondering what's the quickest/easiest way to transfer the scoreboard from some other HUD to you own HUD.
Right now I'm trying to use the scoreboard from Mr_Slins HUD (https://github.com/misterslin/SlinFireHUD) to use it with my own HUD, but when I simply copy and paste the scoreboard.res file, the scoreboard doesn't work properly and I get numbers in wrong sizes or missing entirely.
What else do I have to change to make the scoreboard work?
Had the same problem when I tried to copy different scoreboards in the past, but still didn't figure it out :(

The SLIN scoreboard is basically default hud with default fonts, just some things hidden/disabled. You're most likely messing with the scoreboard fonts in your own clientscheme.res which then causes issues in this file. Them cutting off is most likely you increasing font-size and the default bounding box size being too small for them to fit.
