Hi!
Now that HUD editing has gotten a bit more popular, I've been receiving many friend requests/emails from others wondering how to do one or two specific things with or in their HUD. While I'd like to accept all of the friend requests, my list has gotten quite full over the past few months, and I've been struggling to keep up with them all.. So in order to alleviate the influx of requests/emails and potentially help a larger audience all at once, I've decided to do a type of impromptu-esque HUD workshop thing on my stream at some point in the near future (maybe this weekend?) where I'll essentially stream nothing but HUD-related questions for a solid time block (2-3ish hours, maybe?) By doing something like this, I hope to potentially clear up a lot of things to upcoming HUD creators/editors, and educate those that might have never had a chance to mess with HUDs before.
To speed things up a bit on the actual day of the workshop, I'm going to leave the rest of this thread open to both HUD-related questions that you've always wanted answered, and feedback on how I could potentially make things more efficient on the day I decide to do it. I know there are at least a handful of core things that a lot of people all want to know how to do, so hopefully I'll see a lot of names there.
In order to determine which questions I'll answer/not answer, then please provide feedback to me by +fragging a question you'd like to hear the answer to yourself. On the day of the workshop, I'll order all of the questions based on which ones have the most/least frags, and just go down the list. If I run out of time, then I'll either save the others for a potential future HUD workshop, or maybe see if I can make youtube videos on them later. If we make it though the entire list before time runs out, then I'll start taking questions from people in the chat until time runs out.
Also, don't worry about the level of difficulty of your question! Even if it's something as simple as "How do I even open HUD files?", I promise I'll do my best to make things clear! :3

What files are used to edit the motd/sizzling stats panels?

Maybe at some point you could do a stream where you create another custom hud. It doesn't even have to look good, it would just be to show viewers pretty much everything to do with hud editing.
I realise making a hud can take ages, so maybe you could split it up (or maybe don't even stream it live, just upload to youtube in your own time?)

Not sure where the vods are but mangachu made a hud from pretty much scratch on stream. Would be interesting if you just want to watch, not sure how much of the process he explained.

How to balance the practicality and aesthetics of a hud.
How to change the shape of health buff or hurt cross into something else (e.g square, circle,etc)
Is it possible to substitute the marked icons (bleed, marked for death) with words instead.
Many thanks in advance
