Truly Custom HUD?

(Kiddles) #1

Hi there, I’m here to ask a question regarding making a custom HUD for DB

Is there any way to directly edit the HUD elements to add to them?

I’m not meaning in the sense of the positioning of the elements, since there’s a tried-n-true program for that sort of thing. No, I’m meaning in the sense of editing the elements of the HUD themselves. An example would be super-imposing an image over it so that it shows with the rest of the elements.

I’m wanting to do this mainly because I’ve made the image to be imposed already for streaming, but do not want to continually be shifting it on and off between loading screens and such. I’ve looked into the files, but have yet to find the HUD elements anywhere under the names you’d expect to find them under. Anyone got any ideas?

I believe you can’t hide nor add elements to the hud. I tried to remove the minimap once (don’t ask why) and the only thing that worked was reducing its scale to 1x1 pix

[spoiler]I’d rather see a whole UI overhaul (redone objective markers, IFF markers of downed teammates for medics maybe, main menu overhaul too).[/spoiler]

You can hide the minimap just fine.
