and the l4d1 style healthbars are seemingly hardcoded. if you want to use your own textures, go to the .res files you wanna change, go to the "Health" control and paste the following block inside, between the brackets:


"new_material_style" "1"
"healthbar_image_high" "vgui/hud/avhud3/health_bar_high"
"healthbar_image_medium" "vgui/hud/avhud3/health_bar_medium"
"healthbar_image_low" "vgui/hud/avhud3/health_bar_low"
"healthbar_image_grey" "vgui/hud/healthbar_withglow_white"

"healthbar_image_high_ticks" "vgui/hud/avhud3/health_bar_high_temp"
"healthbar_image_medium_ticks" "vgui/hud/avhud3/health_bar_medium_temp"
"healthbar_image_low_ticks" "vgui/hud/avhud3/health_bar_low_temp"
"healthbar_image_grey_ticks" "vgui/hud/healthbar_ticks_withglow_white"


and change the texture paths to use your own

is healthbar_bg_1,2,3,4 in materials/vgui/hud not what you're looking for? if not then i have no idea what you could be referring to. it should be all there if you dig around.

as for the weapon panel, it's composed of scalablepanel_bgmidgrey and scalablepanel_bgmidgrey_glow, also in materials/vgui/hud.

I would like to do a texture edit of this mod's UI elements, but it doesn't seem like they're all present in the vpk (the grunge hud backgrounds, the weapon panel, the health bars.etc.etc), could you help or explain why that is?

why the incap icons makes the survivors red? in the original they we're just black and white
Eery Jan 8 Mar @ 1:17am 
I wanted to edit all of the UI textures for personal use, the background for the survivors, the item boxes, even the versus stuff, but half of them don't even seem to be present in the VPK (the versus panels and the healthbars most importantly). Why is that?

it even turns blue when you use colorblind mode! nice!

Is possible to make this with default incap panels like on the original L4D HUD ?
El Rubio_Gaming 24 Sep, 2024 @ 6:26pm 
I want a side HUD just like l4d1 but in l4d2 HUD

I know this is a tall ask and you don't have to do it, but could you make a version that removes those splotches along the edges of the HUD, making them smooth lines?
.fswssp 12 Jun, 2024 @ 8:50am 
hi! thanks for great hud mods, rly love these!

can you make it compatible with this mod? avhud 2 works, but this not

have you heard about "best vanilla hud"?, can you do something to put your own name down?

Is it possible to update this with a merged Xbox HUD?
xScruffyDaSasquatchx  14 Apr, 2024 @ 2:39am 
Great mod, can you make a version that is L4D1 campaigns only? Would love to be able to play both unique huds but also with both having team health
Samy 24 Mar, 2024 @ 2:35pm 
just wanted to tell you btw, the game does crash when playing on fullscreen when you're playing with it, which is a problem with the vulkan renderer. windowed & windowed borderless work fine. and you should test your hud out on varying resolutions too, i'm not completely sure about l4d2 but i remember on half-life 2 using -gamepadui on 1366x768 would have the health text clip into the health number but on 1920x1080 it wouldn't do that.
tomaz  [author] 20 Mar, 2024 @ 12:20pm 
oh wow... didn't know that, thanks for telling me! i'll make sure to update my huds when i get the chance
Samy 20 Mar, 2024 @ 10:49am 
the command line will enable the vulkan renderer aswell, just in-case you can't run games on vulkan.
Samy 20 Mar, 2024 @ 10:44am 
it might not be completely accurate to how it looks on the steam deck, but you can try the -gamepadui command line to see how it could look on one.
Sam The La Pofum 3 Mar, 2024 @ 9:29am 
Please plese can you make a vertical version for the survivors?
I love this hud man:steamsad:
tomaz  [author] 15 Jan, 2024 @ 7:30am 
or you can try right clicking on l4d2 in steam > properties > workshop > and drag this hud all the way to the top
tomaz  [author] 15 Jan, 2024 @ 7:30am 
you most likely have another ui/hud addon that is conflicting with this, such as a custom crosshair or something similar.
make sure that isn't the case.
Markiplier 14 Jan, 2024 @ 6:59pm 
For me, my characters hud is in the top left, and doesn't have the L4D1 look, while all of the other survivors do. I don't get it.
КПТ-8 22 Dec, 2023 @ 5:12am 
nice hud)
tomaz  [author] 11 Dec, 2023 @ 7:18am 
unfortunately there really isn't much i can do since the m60 ammo counter is hard-coded for whatever reason.
Medicman 10 Dec, 2023 @ 7:18pm 
is it possible to a just the M60 ammo counter? Goes out the box

I suppose not ALL elements are not possible to replicate? E.g: original player's HP bar decor, removal of survivor's portraits when dead. black & white survivor's portraits when spectating and DEAD text.

Back to old school.
tomaz  [author] 25 Oct, 2023 @ 8:29am 
idk what to tell ya, i don't think i changed anything crosshair related on this hud so i'm afraid that the problem is most likely on your end.
Apollyon 25 Oct, 2023 @ 8:13am 
It worked properly yesterday
tomaz  [author] 25 Oct, 2023 @ 8:09am 
works for me. make sure you don't have any UI related addons that might be conflicting with this hud
Apollyon 25 Oct, 2023 @ 8:04am 
Crosshair .dot small cyan
tomaz  [author] 25 Oct, 2023 @ 8:03am 
which custom crosshair are you trying to use?
Apollyon 25 Oct, 2023 @ 7:58am 
Now it's incompatible with Urik's custom crosshairs :(
tomaz  [author] 24 Oct, 2023 @ 2:30pm 
@heyitsduke, sorry it took an awful lot of time but splitscreen should hopefully be fixed now
Nick "Gaz" Garrick 4 Oct, 2023 @ 12:53pm 
Maybe you can make another version but without the life numbers of the teammates, if you can't, no problem.

The best HUD on the workshop. <3
marcelismyname 22 Aug, 2023 @ 9:47am 
cant see crosshair (crosshair 1 is enabled in console)
HeyItsDuke 18 Aug, 2023 @ 9:36pm 
Thank you! The fact you have even decided to consider it means a lot to me. I appreciate it.
tomaz  [author] 18 Aug, 2023 @ 3:09am 
I can try but I can't guarantee anything
HeyItsDuke 18 Aug, 2023 @ 2:54am 
Would you consider adding proper splitscreen support? It *almost* works in splitscreen. But the healthbar of the second player doesn't render. I play splitscreen pretty often, so this very small feature would be greatly appreciated! Thanks for the mod, it's my favorite HUD mod.
it's reeyon not ryan 15 Aug, 2023 @ 1:04pm 
is there a way to disable the team health counters?

Jucian 4 Aug, 2023 @ 10:30pm 
It's funny because i genuinely prefer the L4D1 hud over the L4D2 one.

tomaz  [author] 1 Aug, 2023 @ 10:21am 
i have no idea what i did that fixed it but i'm glad it's fixed for you now :steamthumbsup:
TheFoxMan94 1 Aug, 2023 @ 10:14am 
wanted to let you all know that the mod is now running smooth again. the update fixed it. thank you creator for updating it for us.
kukuhorny 1 Aug, 2023 @ 2:09am 
it looks so good, but why are the incap icons so big compared to all others?
Big Boss 30 Jul, 2023 @ 12:16pm 
The best HUD indeed :steamthumbsup: honestly this is just perfection with the L4D1 font
