Larzuk Posted April 17, 2013 Like the title says, is it possible to change the alternate hud in gzdoom? I would really like to turn off the weapons that are shown on the right side of the screen but I can't seem to find an option for it. If possible, all I want to be able to see is the health, ammo, and keys. 0 Share this post Link to post
Gez Posted April 17, 2013 There is no blanket option to hide weapons. What you can do is use the ALTHUDCF lump to define a blank icon (TNT1A0 maybe?) for all weapons. Create a small file named althudcf.txt, write that code in it, and add it to your autoload. But of course, the drawback is that this won't work with modded weapons. 0 Share this post Link to post
Enjay Posted April 18, 2013 You don't actually have to specify an invisible graphic. Empty quotes does the job. e.g. Pistol "" 0 Share this post Link to post
Larzuk Posted April 19, 2013 Thanks for the help. I got it to work by following Enjay's post. The only issue I have right now is getting the icon for the bfg to go away. I currently have tried bfg "", BFG "", and Bfg "" but none of these have made it disappear. Any idea what I should be putting down for the bfg? 0 Share this post Link to post
Blue Shadow Posted April 19, 2013 As a class, it's called BFG9000, not just BFG. So try that. 0 Share this post Link to post

I do have another question since it doesn't work for modded weapons. Does it not work because the modded weapons are under a different named class? If not, does that mean it impossible to get this to work with modded weapons? 0 Share this post Link to post

Modded weapons do have different names from default ones; all this means, though, is that you'll need to make a new "patch" for every mod you intend to use with it. 0 Share this post Link to post

It only takes a minute or two to type it out so that doesn't really bother me. How would I go about searching and finding what the classes are for modded weapons? 0 Share this post Link to post
Gez Posted April 20, 2013 You can look at the mod's DECORATE lumps. Alternatively, you can load the mod and type in the console "dumpclasses weapon" and you'll get a list of all weapons known by the engine. (This will include all the vanilla Doom, Heretic, Hexen, and Strife weapons in addition to the mod's weapons though.) 0 Share this post Link to post
