Dear config and hud experts
I want to make my gameclock bigger on my hud because my current one is too small for my liking. Does anyone know how to do this? If you do I would very much appreciate it :)
I am currently running broeselshud (and yes I have tried to edit it without any result).
Take resource/ui/HudObjectiveTimePanel.res & resource/ui/HudStopWatch.res from version 1.0 of my HUD :)
could you please mention some commands to make the numbers BIGGER? :) Or maybe put the numbers bottom mid screen ?
I have been wondering something similar so now that you mention it, I’m gonna use your thread to ask :P
Is there a way to make the “Server map time left: xx:xx” in the scoreboard waaay bigger, and delete the “Server map time left” part (leaving only the numbers).
Thanks for any answer in advance.

Flame’s guide to HUDs http://flamehud.googlecode.com/files/FlameHUD.pdf and broesels directions should give you most, if not all, of the information you need to do it yourself. If you still have questions after reading that and looking up the files, get back to this thread and ask away.

It can be done. Take a look at this ugly timeleft hack of mine for instance. http://img820.imageshack.us/img820/8997/uglytimelefthack.png The text can’t be removed but if you put the element outside the left border of the screen, by giving it a negative xpos, and set alignment to right I’d recon you’d be able to get rid of most of it. I only have it like that because I like the timeleft digits somewhat at the center of my screen. Make sure to make it wide enough, as the string will otherwise have dots at the end, possibly cutting out the digits.
I’ll upload my current hud here so you can see how I did it. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=CJV0SPVM The files of interest are:
team fortress 2/tf/resource/ui/ScoreBoard.res
Search for “timeleft”
team fortress 2/tf/resource/ClientScheme.res
Search for “mini”
This is where you find the custom font specification used in the timeleft element. Install the font by unzipping the content and pasting into C:Windows/Fonts. Good Luck.

thanks!
Removing “server map time left:” is possible by changing your tf_english.txt in the resource folder. I also removed the “Server: “.
Here’s the edited file: http://rapidshare.com/files/444987326/tf_english.txt
I changed lines 73-77.
