Custom HUD anyone?

[Litego]

Anyone making a custom hud?

Would like to have an ammo, mag and health counter as well as the reload bar close to my crosshair. Some nice and big team health bars would be nice too. Wouldn't mind having the ability to quickdrop health and ammo bags either.

thx
I have 2 other questions regarding Custom HUD:

1. I saw a custom crosshair in bounty's videos (eg. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_pY39jssdU ) are there mods which allow that or is it something like replacing an dll which will get lost on an official update?

2. If I play with 8 marines the UI shows only 6 playerinfos on the bottom of the screen (eg. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=914438533 ). Is this normal? Can I resize this part of the UI to see all 8 players?

I can ask Bounty to explain here how he got his hud.
Regarding second question, the answer is a no, not possible at the moment.

Here's the crosshair that I'm using:

And green arrows:

Every other mod are from workshop or it's just a console command.

Thx deluxe to both :)

Tried to make it a bit smaller, however it was a pain to edit and test.

Here another good looking HUD displaying stats for all 8 marines

I have an additional HUD question.

My story:
I got really used to look in the left corner for my reloads.
Which starts to bug me now. I have a really hard time to get used to look in the middle.
My 'rd_fast_reload_under_marine_scale' is 8!
Not that I'm blind but I cannot stop myself from doing this automatic look to the corner, which is a bad move in hectic situations.

My question:
Can I remove the left-corner-reload-bar (or rescale it)?

EDIT: yojimbo suggested trying out
rd_draw_portraits 0
as an temporary solution.
I will test this the next days and write back :)

So I tried this out the last days and yea, I'm getting used to it (reloadbar still 8).
I also realized I should look more on my ammobar under my marine.
One thing is still important and not on the screen: my remaining offhand-items count (same for secondary ammo but that's not really important).

So apart from that offhand-item-thing the whole gameplay-experience is more immersional, I have to concentrate on the edges of the screen less which is very good.

Edit: I build a switch into my autoexec.cfg to turn it on temporary:

// disable portraits toggle
alias toggleportraits toggleportraitsA
alias toggleportraitsA "rd_draw_portraits 0; net_graph 0; echo Portraits disabled; alias toggleportraits toggleportraitsB"
alias toggleportraitsB "rd_draw_portraits 1; net_graph 1; echo Portraits enabled; alias toggleportraits toggleportraitsA"
bind p toggleportraits

Start reducing reload bar size

Then bind it to another key that you never use, such as your LMB (left mouse button)

Because you know clearly that you could have bound it to another key.
