[hlcoders] Hud positioning/scaling help
--
[ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ]
Im having trouble positioning and scaling some of the images I have for my
hud. I know that im supposed to position them in 640x480, but when I do
that, if I then take it up to say 1024x768 then some of the images now
intersect with the text, because the text is now bigger.
And, since in the hud I have a health bar, in 640x480 it is really big, and
in higher resolutions it is just fine, how would I scale it down only if the
resolution is 640x480?
This is my hud:
http://img529.imageshack.us/img529/6661/newhudpi2.jpg
And I have it all worked out in the code, it is just the images are not
scaling down or up, which is really frustrating me :(
I tried doing something like:
#define RES640 113
engine-GetScreenSize(m_iScreenWidth,m_iScreenHeight);
if(m_iScreenWidth == 640){
healthBar-SetSize(m_iHealth * (RES640 / 100),8); //Update the size
of the Health Bar
}
The size of the healthbar is not 100 pixel's across, so I have to multiply
the current health by a certain fraction. So I take the width it should be
(RES640) and divide it by 100, which should give me a fraction and set it to
the write width, which it doesn't it is alway's to big for it, though it
should be just right.
Thanks to anyone that can help me :D

Try using the XRES() and YRES() functions, and base your code off that, this
way you will get correct placement for any resolution, even if it is changed
while in game.

[hlcoders] Fundamental Source engine question
Hi all, I have a fundamental question, and maybe this is not the right forum. If so, please direct me elsewhere. So, how can I build a game using the Source engine (not necessarily a MOD) so I can later deploy it without requiring the end user to have HL2 installed? Requiring the end user to have Steam is ok, but I don't want to require them to have HL2. Is this possible? I figure it must be possible I'm just not sure how. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: [hlcoders] Font size glitches after hud_reloadscheme
You may note that my fix does not re-initialize the whole HUD though.

[hlcoders] Impossible Assert
I built a bullet_manager system similar to the one featured on the SDK for bullets with a simulated velocity, but with a few modifications. It is currently using a temp ent to send the bullets to all clients (except the local client, where it is predicted). The temp ent contains an EHANDLE to pAttacker, which is assigned a player pointer. The pointer is NULL checked serverside before transmission of the bullet and players are not entities which will get randomly removed during normal play. However, during play testing, we routinely get an Assert( pAttacker ) message which comes up during bullet creation coming from the temp ent. I don't think the player entities are being suddenly removed, so I'm starting to wonder if it might be a networking error of somesort. If someone could enlighten me on this, would be great. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
[hlcoders] Shadows and Prediction
I've been having some trouble recently with shadows (light-casted shadows, not VPhysics shadows) and predicted entities.
