dx8?

good work on this Cherry, dude's been fixing bugs within seconds of my dumb ass encountering them.

That's true. @June kresnik's solution is probably better: it's also nice to have an alias for your favorite servers so you can just type in console "FirePoweredMGE" or whatever and join if TF2's favorites menu is being wonky (as it often is).

go to gamemenu.res in resource and find the button. the button will look something like this:

"whatever the button name is"
	{
		"label" " X " 
		"command" "engine connect _____________"
        	"tooltip" "join X server"
	} 

just change the IP (where it says "connect" and then a string of numbers) to the IP of whichever server you want to connect to.

i just watched all of them, these are hilarious. pretty sure working service industry is equally shitty in all types of settings, the people buying the binders sounded just like the fuckers i used to need to be nice to working register at a mexican restaurant.

:D

Last I heard there was no way to export the casts to youtube, which is the only thing I can think of getting in the way. The streamer could always local record I suppose.

Sure!

The health cross is being cut off by a parent element. The health cross has two parent elements: HudPlayerHealth in HudPlayerHealth.res, and HudPlayerStatus in HudLayout.res.

To fix your problem you will need to move the cross to the right while moving the parent element to the left by the same amount. This is because you need to move the cross inside of the parent element. However, that means everything in there will be moved to the right. To keep it in the same position relative to the side of the screen, move the parent element to the left. Maybe this image will do it better justice than I can. The red box is the parent element.

Nerd essay below if you want a deeper understanding.
Each part of a hud is called an element. These elements are put together, as you already know, in .res files, but also in groups. For example, if you wanted to move the health around, there are many other things that are potentially related to the health that you might want to move, like the health cross, the background, the status images, etc. These are put together in a .res file so it's easier to find all the relevant elements, and also are put into a parent element so you can move or otherwise edit the whole system without needing to move everything. ~Usually~ any element that has a parent will have one in HudLayout.res, although sometimes there are others.

Your health cross is at the very edge of the parent element.

• You're going to need to make the parent element bigger by increasing wide/tall.
  
• The parent elements in this case are the target ids, which are in HudLayout.res
  
• There are three parent elements, one for each type of targetid, below is an image from Doodle's guide explaining each one.
  
• For each targetid that you want to change, increase the wide value. You will need to also change the xpos in the same element in hudlayout.res to recenter it. Also, you will need to move everything inside targetid.res to the right.

Hope that fixes it.

How does the whole bookmarking ability work? Is there a console command that you can use to output specific ticks to a text file on a mac?

I used to live in Chesapeake, and actually worked at my uncle's burrito place, called Burrito Perdido. If your lan does go through I could ask him if he could give you guys a discount or something (no promises). Hit me up if you want some mexican gamer fuel.
