[HUD] New HUD [Update2 read first Post]
type: item
description: Hi everyone, Maybe you remember the serverside HUD project of campa and me. It wasn't never really finished and it can't be released only for our RenCom Server (not of technical reasons). I decided to finish it for you all and made nearly finished version but you some points to know: 1. It uses a modified version of the shaders.dll. It contains a handfull of bugfixes and new features (and maybe some new bugs^^). I remember all of them some important ones are mentioned below. 2. I doesn't include the Building-Bars but everys other change we made. 3. I didn't inlcuded any mapoverviews - I'm going to release them seperatly. Maybe you use canadacdn's ones from renhelp. 4.This HUD supports every screen resolution but maybe if you use a too small resolution some boxes will overleap. This screen-resolution independence was not made by us! It can already be made with a pure 3.4.4. shader.dll 5. A last information to the skilled programmers here: I made the last changes on the shaderhud.cpp code and I'm a programming beginner. I just copied existing code and modified it for my purposes. Maybe you will notice that in some way when you use it or when I give the source to some of you. *Major Changes/Features: -HUD shows active mines of your Team -BulletBar shows the current number of Bullets in your weapon -fixed some issues with the radar and the mapoverviews -every number depends now on these fontXxX.tga's except the Weaponsdescription -Added BulletIcon (like the HealthIcon) I attached the hud to this post and you can download it at my site at the others-category (if you can't see the entry press F5 reload). http://deathlink.ut-ccr.de/ Have fun with it. Edit3: So here is the release compiled version including the source. Merry Christmas!

description: Wow! This looks really good! I especially like the 'basic' look of the HUD, not too much eye candy, but a basic, good looking HUD. Will sure try this HUD out PS: I'm using a couple replacements/mod(s) from your site, like the 'leet sniper rifle' and the 'blood mod', really cool stuff! The only thing is that most of your weapon replacements are missing first person stealth views (First person view for weapons, while being in 'stealth mode') + strange reloading, but next to that, they are awesome work!

description: Hmm, It seems my computer hates the new shaders.dll, because with the modified shaders.dll, my Renegade crashes instantly after starting Renegade up, but with the basic shaders.dll from Scripts 3.4.4, it doesn't crash. With the basic shaders.dll, it kinda fucks up the HUD :s Edit: Seems Raven has the same problem as me

This isn't his fault. I compiled an unaltered shaders.dll and it crashed in the same manner. The only way is to use the original shaders.dll provided, disable Shaders in BHS options, and run the altered shaders.dll.

description: Anant, that picture you posted shows a desktop with a 1024x768 resolution. I can tell due to the space the taskbar has. Surely you can choose that. If not, there's something up. I don't think a 17" or 19" LCD would have a native/maximum resolution of 800x600. R315r4z0r wrote on Wed, 24 December 2008 13:56 I used to get that. It isn't really that much FPS, it just says that. I would get 300FPS at some points and it wouldn't seem any different than 40. I don't know about you, but when it says I get so many FPS, I'm getting that many FPS. If I disable v-sync, depending on what's going on and how many players are in the server, I can sometimes average about 200FPS (keep in mind that this is at 1600x1200 with 8xAA, 16xAF, and Supersampling AA enabled), and when I do, I can most definitely tell the difference between it (even though it's just 100FPS with screen tearing) versus a comparatively slow 40FPS. Then again, I can see the difference between 60FPS and 100FPS to the point to where, if I've played a game with a constant 100FPS (Renegade hardly ever goes below that for me if I enable v-sync), then 60FPS is just slow to me, so maybe it's just me, and you can't tell that you're getting what it says when it's over a certain amount. If you're used to 40-60FPS, and you have an LCD that won't go higher than, say, 60hz or 75hz, it may really be doing that many FPS, but it may not feel any higher to you since you're used to that range and anything higher doesn't come off to you. Edit: By the way, I'll second the comment that, of all of the HUDs I've seen, this is the first I've downloaded and liked. Nice job! Toggle Spoiler

If i want to start coding (and for Renegade), what would be the best place to start? I presume Renhelp?

All important notes about the settings can you find in the 'bhs.txt'.

description: I'm making my own based HUD out of the HUD atm, thanks for the advice cAmpa. I never ever looked at HUD.ini, but when I opened it, It was really easy for me to understand everything (without opening bhs.txt). I know HUD.ini isn't really coding (for me now), but just replacing/moving parts of the existing HUD, but its cool and easy I'm wondering though, the entire HUD works on a grid with X and Y coordinates, but whats the exact size of this grid? I was searching for the X middle, but couldn't really find it (-690 till -710?). So what would be the lowest and highest X and Y for this Grid?

That's not what I meant. I mean, when it says I am getting 5 FPS, my game is really running at 5 FPS as in really choppy. 20 is playable but still a little jumpy. 30-40 FPS is very smooth and 60 is flawless. Anything above 60, be it 61 or 300, seems exactly the same.

description: Yes Deathlink, I already figured that out I'm only trying to move certain things of your HUD, and then maybe try my own textures (although I can't open and edit DDS files atm). I'm only wondering how big the grid is it uses for values in Hud.ini (X and Y positioning) . As I'm trying to move things (Boxes with icons) to different locations over the screen. I tried to find the X middle, but I couldn't really find it. It has to be somewhere between -710 and -690 (with 1280 X 1024 reso). Next to that, I was wondering what the lowest and highest X and Y are for the grid As it would be useful for moving boxes and icons etc. --- And what Caveman said would be useful, I had the same problem while using this HUD, and turning the value on in HUD.ini that causes the 'thing' to flash when you are below 50HP only results into flashing health icon in the middle of your screen without any value next to it (value for the amount of HP: 1-50).

For other Kombinations: X>0 Y<0 -> 0,0 is in the left lower corner X<0 Y<0 -> 0,0 is in the right lower corner X<0 Y>0 -> 0,0 is in the right upper corner The grid is one pixel of you screen-res. TEST IT! I don't spend more time for this hud and in addition I don't know how to make sth. blink and I don't want to. We've done enough and I'm glad that is finsihed the way I want. There still some bugs left to fix (icons-colorscheme still doesn't work but I don't need that in my HUD). Have fun with source. I'm waiting for your bugfixes and features now.
