HUD Icon

[edub18]

Hey
im trying to place an icon on the players screen. First im precaching it:

init()
{
precacheShader("cardicon_claymore");
[...]
}

Then i create it:

self.infoIcon = createIcon("cardicon_claymore", 64, 64);
self.infoIcon setPoint("BOTTOMRIGHT", "BOTTOMRIGHT", -10, -2);

But its looks buggy ingame. Can anyone help me?

notifyData = spawnstruct();
notifyData.iconName = "rank_prestige10"; //Icon, 10th prestige
notifyData.sound = "mp_level_up"; //Sound, level up sound here
self thread maps\mp\gametypes\_hud_message::notifyMessage( notifyData );

That works for me, I don't think that looks so buggy though it just pops up for a couple of seconds in the middle of the screen. I don't think that is what you want but you may be able to modify it to the corner as you want.


Can you use some of this, it is another way than precaching but i think it works, i'm not sure and you need some more code than this to make it work but you seem to know about GSC coding.

	level.infoIcon = createIcon("cardicon_claymore", 64, 64);
	level.infoIcon.alignX = "right";
	level.infoIcon.alignY = "bottom";
	level.infoIcon.horzAlign = "right;
	level.infoIcon.vertAlign = "bottom";
	level.infoIcon.y = 25;
	level.iinfoIcon.foreground = true;

Thanks but my code work well for some icons. I think some of the icon files are missing :-/

Okey. Here is the code, this works and is taken from the MW2, ff files.

self.carryIcon = createIcon( "cardicon_sniper", 33, 33 );
self.carryIcon setPoint( "TOP", "TOP", 5, 100 );;

And in the

init()
{
precacheShader("cardicon_sniper");

NB: I am not sure about what number is Hight + Broad and X+ Y

createIcon( "cardicon_sniper", 33, 33 );

the 33 , 33 is the size of the icon.

Hight + Broad

self.carryIcon setPoint( "TOP", "TOP", 5, 100 );;

5 , 100 is the place.

X + Y
