I don't know about the HUD, but Adobe Premiere is a great program for video production. If you can't get ahold of Premiere, then you could always use Windows Movie Maker that comes installed with Windows XP.

the hud is definied by [wphi] and those wphi's are made up of bitmaps, so that should get you somewhere

Is there any way to edit those bitmaps though? Photoshop won't save them correctly...I bet you could do it for CE. I'm gonna have to get CE so I can do all the cool stuff with HEK--then convert it, don't worry I'm not leavin xbox.

If you just wanted to turn off the hud, use HHT and go to biped and Cyborg_mp. Go down to the unhi's in the dependency list and null them out. Then, go to a weapon(w/e one you want to have no reticles and ammo counter)and null out the wphi in the dependency list. You also have to null out the grhi in the matg tag. Now you should have a completely blank hud when you pick up the weapon you nulled the wphi out on.

Thanks Spammy and all. But is there a tutorial for it or maybe a more detailed way to do it?

Beats me, but what Spammy said was like a different language to me

im pretty sure ive seen a ppf to do this for you... take a look around the files forum...

if its not made for the right map you could probably just reverse-engineer it

Spammy was talking about tags in HHT, you click on the tag and a list of dependencies come up, such as hud bitmaps just click on them and hit N on the keyboard and it goes down to nulled out, then click swap its very simple.

Heh, sorry for the confusion. I tend to make simple things sound complicated.
