[SOLVED] How to hide the infected hud?
I'm making a video using demo footage from versus games. For a cinematic look I'd like to hide the health bars of me and my infected teammates. Does anyone know a console command (NOT "hidehud 4") or any other way to hide that infected hud?

I have experimented with this vague "hidehud" bitmask command and "cl_drawhud", but I didn't manage to hide these specific hud elements.

My goal is to hide the health bars et cetera while keeping the "hit/incapacitated" info on the left of the screen, just like in this video, which proves that there is a way of achieving it:

Any help would be very much appreciated! :)
Have a good day.


SOLUTION: Finally I found the crucial command: "hud_zombieteam 0". Problem solved! :D

I believe if you use hidehud 8 or so, then cl_drawhud 0, you'll hide healthbars while still getting killfeed/etc. I haven't done this exact thing in a while, so you may have to try different values of hidehud. For reference, type hidehud without a value & you'll get some values that may help you out.

Hi there, Tiny King Trashmouth. Thank you for taking the time to give me some tips, I appreciate it!
This hidehud command is strange... By now I've tried out every possible and reasonable bitmask value but it seems the infected hud can't be hidden through this command unless you use the radical "hidehud 4". I'm gonna stick with hidehud 4 then, it's sufficient for me. Maybe one day I'll find the perfect solution.
Thanks again and good luck with your mods. :P
