Overlays - Yamato - 07-27-2011

Hello

Another tutorial, Nyan Cat

This is about overlays(HUD)

Paste this anywhere in your mod code:

Code:
CreateOverlay( shader_name, start_alpha, color )
{
	overlay = newHudElem();
	overlay.x = 0;
	overlay.y = 0;
	overlay setshader( shader_name, 640, 480 );
	overlay.alignX = "left";
	overlay.alignY = "top";
	overlay.sort = 1;
	overlay.color = color;
	overlay.horzAlign = "fullscreen";
	overlay.vertAlign = "fullscreen";
	overlay.alpha = start_alpha;
	overlay.foreground = true;
	return overlay;
}

Now, to call a overlay, do this:

Code:
	CreateOverlay( "shader,remember to precache it", alpha(put 1, for a good result) , (red,green,blue));

Example of use:

Code:
Mod() // A random thread name
{
	CreateOverlay( "minimap_scanlines", 1 , (0,1,0.2));
}

I hope this helps, Cool

1 question... how can i clear the hud in order to make my own elem? (not recreating textures - just clear the hud showing only the gun and the environment)

HC mode, and set the max health back to 100...

You can also use:

Code:
self setClientDvar( "cg_draw2D", "0" );
