Yo, heads up!
The Scout being clever

The Heads-up display or HUD, is a system for quickly relaying important information to the player and is an integral part of Team Fortress 2 gameplay. A minimal version of the HUD can be enabled in Advanced multiplayer options or through the console command cl_hud_minmode 1. Players can also modify the game's HUD files to suit their preferences (see custom HUDs).

Scoreboard

Artigo principal: Scoreboard

The scoreboard is a screen accessible with Tab ⇆ (Xbox Button Y.png on the Xbox 360, PS Button Select.png on the PlayStation 3) or at the end of the round, before a map change. It displays player information, server name, team scores, duel score (if you are running a duel), and so on. Information is given about each player including their Steam ID, what team they are on, how many points they have, and what class they are playing as (unless on the opposing team).

  • Mann Vs. Machine Mode - Recharge meter for Sapper, Ap-Sap, Snack Attack, and Red-Tape Recorder.

3D Player Model

When enabled, the player's current class will be shown as a 3D model instead of a 2D image. The model will show what the player is currently wearing and the item they have equipped. This adds a benefit for Spies because a disguised Spy can see what the player they are disguised as looks like, making it easier for them to identify who they are disguised as or to avoid certain identifying items, such as the Hotrod.

This option can be enabled by going to the Advanced Options menu and selecting the option Use Player Model in Player Class HUD.

HUD modification

Team Fortress 2 allows players to modify their HUD from the default layout. Many community members have made modifications that are shared with the public, and many have become very popular. Reasons for using custom HUDs vary widely, but most agree that they are primarily to improve visibility of important information, e.g. health, ammo, Damage Text, or ÜberCharge meters, and move non-vital HUD panels aside. Most custom HUDs only modify the game visually, but some add custom buttons such as a Console button. Custom HUDs can also be used on servers with an sv_pure 1 setting.

  • Note: Custom HUD modifications will often break after major game updates, and for that reason are disabled when you next launch the game. If your current HUD is not displaying properly, check the website of your custom HUD for an update.

Installation

Each custom HUD contains different files and their correct destination may vary (see their individual documentation for exact locations). However, custom HUD modifications generally only modify files in two folders:

  • /tf/resource
  • /tf/scripts

After placing all files in their correct destinations, use hud_reloadscheme or restart the game and play with your new HUD.

Often after using hud_reloadscheme when replacing or copying files from /tf/resource, the HUD will bug out and display fonts and other items incorrectly, requiring a restart.

After editing clientscheme.res, the game will require a restart before changes take effect.

Bugs

  • After switching teams, HUD panels may appear incorrectly colored, with a player on BLU having a RED HUD (but not vice-versa). This can be fixed by opening and closing the Advanced Options or by the console command hud_reloadscheme.
    • A similar bug can occur with the buildings panel, in which the panels of buildings left at the end of the previous round do not get greyed out after a team switch. Bringing out the relevant building's blueprint fixes this.
  • The HUD may load incorrectly if the game window isn't in focus when the map is loaded. The console command hud_reloadscheme can be used to fix this.
  • Inspecting another friendly player can occasionally cause the bottom right corner of the HUD to disappear after no longer inspecting them. This can be fixed by inspecting a player again.
  • Changing loadout from Chargin' Targe or Splendid Screen to Stickybomb Launcher, Scottish Resistance, Sticky Jumper or using the command hud_reloadscheme may result in the HUD displaying "%A" or a blank instead of the number of stickies. This is fixed by dying or placing new stickies.
  • When choosing another class and respawning, you will shortly see a RED Scout on your HUD, and "%HEALTH" instead of your current health.
  • The "Overtime" text can conflict with the text showing server time remaining, should the option be enabled.
  • The Diamondback crits counter overlaps the Spy's cloak meter when the minimal HUD option is enabled.
  • The cash counter in Mann vs. Machines overlaps the player's killstreak counter and current disguise panel.
  • The canteen counter in Mann vs. Machine overlaps the panel used for the Thermal Thruster.
  • When equipping another primary weapon after equipping the Dragon's Fury and touching a resupply cabinet, a "pressure" meter will appear in the bottom right corner.
  • When the "Use player model in class HUD" option is in use:
    • The 3D HUD icon will display your selected loadout rather than your current loadout, which can lead to inconsistencies if you have not yet respawned or visited a resupply locker.
    • Some items that affect the appearance of the character while inactive, such as the Buff Banner and Battalion's Backup backpacks, will not display unless they are active.
    • Dying holding one weapon and respawning holding another may cause the display to continue showing the first weapon until any weapon switch is made.
    • Disguised Spies who change their disguise weapon to a default Shotgun will not see the HUD update.
    • Disguised Spies may see a taunt animation instead of their selected disguise weapon in some cases (an example of this is with the Chargin' Targe). The animation will loop and play any associated sounds.
