    `hoodie` is markup language that compiles into Valve KeyValues and simplifies developing huds

    https://github.com/telephrag/hoodie

    Hoodie's main purpose is to reduce amount of repeating code by adding inheritance in face of reusable code blocks called traits. To start using hoodie take a look at README.md and look through files inside example/

    It's called hoodie because initially I though of making it primarily for making TF2 huds but r/SourceEngine showed a lot of interest in this as well. It's more of a pre-release as, I only can sorta-guarantee that it'll work if you write code correctly and yet to write tests to make sure it produces correct output in all error-cases.

    You can report bugs or make suggestions through Reddit or add me on https://steamcommunity.com/id/trofchik/

    Example:

    trait T {
        T_k T_v
        k   v1
    }
    
    B T {
        B_k   B_v
        k$tag v  
        k     v2
    }

    Will compile into:

    "B"
    {
        "T_k" "T_v"
        "B_k" "B_v"
        "k"   "v [$tag]
        "k"   "v2
    }

    Does anyone know what this HUD is?

    Basically i used this hud alot back at a toaster desktop before the desktop crashed and broken. A year later i got a somewhat alright pc as i do not really play much anymore and use it for academic purposes. Wanted to tryout TF2 on the pc that i got to test it out as the previous one gives me 12-50 fps maximum. Thanks and much help would be appreciated :))

    Item background fix

    So I want to remove the colored backgrounds of my items and turn them into the default, gray backgrounds (like for stock weapons) while still retaining the colored text. Does anyone know how to possibly do this?

    For context, I am using HypnotizeHud v1.7

    Is it possible to have teams status (health, classes etc.) with "tf_use_match_hud 0"?

    My intent is to have both old pre MYM round timer along with team status.

    From what I understood team status bar is defined in hudmatchstatus.res in blocks TeamStatus, BlueTeamPanel, RedTeampanel. These I put into hudlayout.res into seperate block but, the game just refuses to draw it. I suspect that related information (team composition, players' health etc.) is hard coded not to be passed to whatever responsible for rendering hud. I've tried to look up how tf_use_match_hud convar is handled in source code but search gave no result.

    Any bit of explanation of what I encountered would be welcome even if you won't respond with exhaustive solution to my problem.

    Difficulties with huddemomanpipes.res (The Shield Charge Meter)

    I'm new to messing around with HUDs, and I get the feeling this ask is going to be silly, but...

    I've finally come across a custom HUD I liked, but decided I wanted to run some personal tweaks on it.
    Notably give centered meters some small backgrounds (I know it's technically worse for visibility or w/e, but I'm not looking to optimize every last pixel out of TF2. I don't like floating numbers/meters).

    However, I've found that The Shield Charge Meter is... stubborn.

    I've been able to give it a background successfully, as seen here...

    https://preview.redd.it/cidq2vlog2pd1.png?width=595&format=png&auto=webp&s=8321f90858504fc429e7369b07260817dc0732db

    ...the problem is when the Sticky Launcher is equipped instead.

    https://preview.redd.it/8i3kyr2rg2pd1.png?width=511&format=png&auto=webp&s=09d04703db64c46c5b21ef4eb9eade2d7e067a5d

    I just cannot get this thing to disappear with the meter.
    I've tried nesting the background's parameters within the meter's or the label's, but to no avail. It decides to not show up period when I try that...
    ...even though this HUD seems to add its own nested BG graphics to the counter for stickies on the field just fine.

    I do not get it. Bizarre to me.
    I've tried looking up tutorials and whatnot, but whatever I sift through never illuminates me on this specific matter.

    (Here's what I've tried doing)

    "ChargeLabel"
      {
      "ControlName"  "CExLabel"
      "fieldName"    "ChargeLabel"

        "xpos"         "-2"
        "ypos"         "-2"
        "zpos"         "-1"

    Does anyone know a hud like this one?

    https://modworkshop.net/mod/13010?tab=images

    A memehud for sure but not without filling the screen with pointless clutter more like, if you let a 2 year old design everything.

    Custom hud fonts

    This was in my \"Clientscheme - fonts\", Searched for \"health\" and brought me to this so I did not hesitate to change the font

    I thought this was the main thing that controls which font the health will be so I didnt hesitate to change it.

    same goes for this one

    I have change the \"font\" to the custome file name but I forgot to take a new screenshot.

    This is the clientscheme whereas I have added the 2 fonts in the font list.

    I have inserted both the two custom fonts

    I had followed Raysfire's tutorial on how to change fonts in a custom hud. He changed his whole hud's font but for me I am only focusing on changing the font of my health and ammo. I have changed the health's font, but when I tested it, it showed me a regular and small text as if the font was not installed even though it was. I'm not sure what mistake I did so I am now going to ask some experts on what to do.

    Is there any way to center the Vaccinator's resistance without centering the meter itself?

    I'm looking to center the Vacc's resistance, but not the bar. I like the bar being off to the side but I wanna see the resistance in the middle, is this possible?

    Little update here: Editing the position of the resist icon in hudmediccharge does nothing in game, so I'm still at a loss. I'm not experienced with HUDs at all.

    Need help making target ID larger.

    Hi all! When playing medic, I always swear by the solemn vow for allowing me to read enemy medic uber percentage. One small issue; the number is too damn small for me to consistently read! Is there any way I can make the number bigger? Preferably without breaking everything?

    Repeated server collection error

    Lately when I’ve been playing TF two, I get the red letter message in the top corner of the screen that says I am losing connection. This has been happening every 12 seconds or so. It has never completely disconnected me, but it’s been happening so often that gameplay is impossible. Has anyone else had this issue and or knows how to fix it?
