I need a new HUD

I know there are a million HUD threads here, but rather than mine through their vastness I wondered if you all have any recommendations. I currently use KNhud, but as it is no longer supported it is becoming increasingly buggy and works poorly with MvM (and MvM is the only thing I'm good at anymore).

What I like in a HUD, first and foremost, is clear and informative Medic target ID's/ubercharge/health-bar. I enjoy a minimalist look but am not opposed to something crazy as long as the HP% utilizes some sort of health-bar. I very much enjoy hit-markers . . . the kind that flash red when you do damage to a player. If such a thing is integrated into the crosshair, that will work as I'll just modify it.

I'm not expecting something to fits all of these criteria, but if you have a favorite HUD you think fits the bill, I'd love to check it out.

Thanks, friends!

I use an old version of yahud that I've modified quite a bit. It's very clean and minimalistic. I could send it to you later of you wanna try it (I'm at work right now).

Look at KBNHud. I'm pretty sure it's based off of KNhud anyway, and it's pretty similar. A lot of people seem to like it, and it's updated regularly.

I´ve been using Eve Hud for a couple months now and i still love it, it gets updated really quickly after a tf2 update comes out and its easy to modify ( also has hit-markers). Not really super minimalistic but it still looks nice :)

I switched from KNHUD (r.i.p.) to M0rehud - Gunblade made an updated one that's still getting new updates to fix it for MVM

I like it cause it's pretty minimal yet informative and I think the damage numbers show up better than KNHUD's

Try mine! It fits your criteria and is geared towards Medics, it's a mashup of all of the neat unique things I really liked in some different huds put into one.

And Indust's is pretty fuckin' great.

You could try mine. I really like playing medic with my HUD, nice and minimal to me. All things MVM was also updated/revamped in my latest release.

This topic is inevitably going to turn into "Look at MY hud!". It only works in 1280x800 and lower, but it's fantastic. I play comp and it's been working pretty darn well. I helped Sevin with MvM stuffs, which is why everything is pretty much finished on my HUD.

http://teamfortress.tv/forum/thread/14389-dysthud

I will optimize the HUD for End of the Line, trust me.

But don't look at mine.
PVHud: I see no reason for this HUD. It's the most popular, but I find it terrible. The health is too big, and the target id health is too small. The font choices are also pretty bad.

EVE Hud: Probably a second choice. Can't see disguise HP at a number.

KBNHud: This hud is pretty good for comp, but font isn't my style.

Broeselhud: I dislike it, and I can't tell you why. I know it's another second choice, but many HUDs are modded off it.

TFPlus? Hud: This guy's hud got a bit viral. It is the best of the popular HUDs I've seen, but the avatar location isn't that good.

Garm3n Hud: I love Garm3n's HUDs, simply because, besides the "Skill: 1337" in the scoreboard, they feel immersive and professional.

Yes, my hud has hit flashing circles. You can do it with eve, too, but I just made it look better with antialias. The Medic HUD WORKS, but it's not centered as in "I need to see the uber % freaking everywhere, since I don't ever play Medic." . Minmode is also too minimal.

omphud uses a different mechanic for heal percentages but it's the most uniform, cleanest hud i can think of.

you could probably replace the surface font with the knhud ones too if you dislike the font but eh

Great stuff guys, I've been checking them all!

Speaking of fonts . . . how does one change the size of the DamageAccount. I'm specifically working with KBN atm, have no clue how to make the damage text bigger

I took a look at the file; you should be able to enlarge the text by replacing the "12" in "kbnblack12OL" and "kbnMedium12" with a larger number like 16 or 18.

I miss the days when there were 3 or 4 popular huds that were consistently updated. Life was simple. m0res, PV, flames. These days everyone has their own hud and it's just downright confusing. I use the old standby of broeselhud (PVhud mod) however broesel is terrible about updating and MvM is still broken, as well as the "Streaks" on the scoreboard.

Bloodsire, you need to pick a size at which there is a font. I'd look at the included fonts and pick the number that's closest to what you want.

I don't know if it would work to use another HUD's fonts but i think RaysHUD has three sizes with outlines.
