Hey all,

Attempting to locate some documentation on HUD scripting. Thus far have had absolitly no luck. Would anyone happen to have a simple basic hud script I might use as a referance to build off of? If not, can anyone point me in the right direction to get started?

Thanks mucho,
Anderion!

AFAIK there aren't any commands specific to HUD matters. What it it you're making? I could probably point you to the right bits of the wiki.

I'm sure something of the like already exists, but would like to make my own. It will be a simple animation HUD. The display will be in the upper lect corner of the screen and a some buttons for basic animations such as wave, laugh, and so on. The part I am stuck on is how to make the 2D HUD appear on my display when I wear it. The rest should be relativly simple to script...

Thanks!

You have to use cubes to dispplay the 2D elements. Then you just attach it to your HUD through the context menu: More>Attach HUD if it's on the ground, Attach to HUD if it's in your inventory.
