will this interfere with ent_watch info thats usually shown on the right when maps have special items?
 
Deathnotices will not overlap with ent_watch or voice elements on the bottom right. Their line-height and icon size was reduced to allow for it.

Chat window was resized to give space for boss attack notifications. Still shows more text than vanilla chat, especially due to increased width allowing for less line-breaks. I'd prefer to just move the boss attacks further to the bottom left but I believe it is server-sided or built into the map so I can't change it.

eitherway great work!
I will for sure be seeing myself alternate between this and JanHud
Is there a small tutorial somewhere to see how do i move the ammo counter? I'm not a fan of it being near the crosshair
 
Thank you. The file that stores HUD element positions is scripts/hudlayout.res.
I reuploaded the main directory, it now includes an optional file for hudlayout.res that has all the changes but with default ammo & money.

Super nice that you fixed the Bar for hp and the long score list. I might implement this to my hud, if you are fine with it ofc. Will give you credit ofc :D
 
Sweet! I like mods like this. Where can I get that P90 from (i am referring to 3rd before-after picture, right side) ?
 
Glad you enjoy it. The P90 skin is from gamebanana.

Goes well with ImBrokeRU's Glukes.

any easy way to fix m249 ammo bug. its really that big of an annoyance, but it displays 00 instead of 100
Click to expand...
That or make the font lower in .res file
You can try editing Janhud too. Pretty sure it works fine with ze on 4:3 but its more optimized for 16:9
