need help about modding hud.txd

[Gqmwrdpt#]

can anyone tell me how to change the HUD.txd to a script?

[Renkon]

I guess the best option would be to hide it with

showPlayerHudComponent 

After that, you should draw the image with

dxDrawImage

can you please explain more ?

What you should do, is export your HUD to a .png file, or to many png files, and after that, draw them with dxDrawImage.

Drawing just the pictures isn't a good idea at all.

first of all you need extract hud.txd textures into .png or similar format ( I mean weapons, or health bars ).

http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/2108/weaponsx.png ( one weapon is comes in one image ) you can set weapon images names to ID's then just use

dxDrawImage(x, y, x, y, "weapons/"..getPedWeapon(getLocalPlayer())..".png", 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, tocolor(255 , 255, 255, 255), false) 

( put the weapons images into weapons folder )

To draw the ammo, money or time just use

dxDrawText() 

, nowadays MTA supports custom fonts so you can draw text with every windows font by

dxCreateFont()

Pictures aren't magic, you obviously will need a script that will control the HUD. You can't just tell him to draw the pictures and expect them to work as a HUD, magically

Use shaders?
