Hi, First, thanks to everyone here at WSGF giving excellent information Second, Super thanks for this fix. One problem I had was that I could not see my own health Solution to this was to edit xpos in CHudLocalPlayerDisplay to "xpos" "r1000" Not perfect, but I can at least see it. Running on 3x1680x1050 (5040*1050) |

If you're willing to make one for 5760x1080, I would be very grateful. There's no rush, though.. as I am fine playing with the HUD on the side monitors.. it doesn't really bother me. However, I'm sure others will be looking for that resolution as well :) Yeah I'm willing...just really short on time now that the holiday weekend is past and I have some contract work due next week. When I started it defaulted back to 640x480 (or whatever) then would not let me select anything above 3840x1024 in the options. That's odd. The game itself wouldn't let you select your resolution in the options menu? Have you tried launching with the -w -h switches? @danielj Happy to help. Care to post an in-game screenshot when you can? Would help as reference data. |

3) The game engine does not automatically see the extracted hudlayout.res file and use it instead of the one in the .vpk file. To correct this you need to HEX edit the .vpk: I tried using two different hex editors and searching for the key, but they couldn't find it. I am wondering if you could detail a little more on how to accomplish this. |

Here's what it looks like in HxD. Some editors display text with spaces so that could be the problem with a search. ![]() |

Works now, good stuff. Glad to hear it. Are you working on a particular res/AR? General note: I've contacted Valve concerning VAC & this mod. Should hopefully have a response in a few days. |

General note: I've contacted Valve concerning VAC & this mod. Should hopefully have a response in a few days. I'm assuming that if you contacted support about it you will get a canned response that they cant tell you what VAC bans for. Skins require the same vpk edit that you are doing and they have never banned for skins. |
