A 4-digit HUD is almost a necessity for the playback of this run I’d say. I’m not worried about people thinking the extra amount of HP is a cheat, since it’s quite obvious how and when you get it, though some people might point out that knowing your exact HP while playing could count as a cheat. I don’t know if you actually play with the 4-digit HUD though, or if you just used it for the video?
We play with the 4-digit HUD and it does look much better when doing so in my opinion.
To be honest, I think using the 4-digit display during play is almost tool-assistance…
Yes, it sure is. But it doesnt save any time or change the game at all.
To use it while playing is more like a insurance to prevent us from taking bad damage (like an explosive “nuke” bug which can do 300dmg, different trigger_hurt’s along the game ect.) Else you might not notice you’re low on health until the end of game, and is forced to redo 100 segements.
Meh. Aesthetically I like it. As for running with it there’s nothing against just checking what your health is by other means so what’s wrong with it while running.
r_drawhud 0
problem solved.
Fixed.
Fixed.
cl_drawhud works too.
no, we’re not talking about half-life 2.
We’ll probably end up using the 4-digit hud all way through. Feel free to post your opinions though.
i vote for 255 for the video
I vote for 255 too
I vote for those two to shut up and agree with the 4 digit hud
255: [/b]2-1 :4-D[/b]
lol, I added a real poll instead ;>
Though it is a modification to the game, it files itself under visual and only aids in the video and not the run. I say do it, it would be a pretty nice addition.
4 Digits makes following consistency easier.
