Notepad, Photoshop mainly.................... but we also need to use the FX Editor that comes with the modding tools, and the batch file that comes with them too to compile the mod.ff

once you get the hang of using the mod tools then theres quite a lot you can do that IW barely touched on. The Fx editor is also surprisingly open with both realistic and unrealistic effects (yay energy cannon)

Well, in theory what you had should have worked. We have bloodsplats, blackout and the dying elements all working at the same time. Did you try calling them in two separate functions?

lol, Yes i have tried nearly everything i could think of. Placing them in an array, separate functions, placingthem inside the globallogic's onStartGametype, re-installing cod (wouldnt change a thing but it couldnt hurt to try), formatting (computer needed a format anyway), compiling with vista admin privalages off and now for my last attempt, trying on a different computer  . The most annoying bit is all coding works perfectly, but looks crap ingame due to no custom HUD elems....
EDIT: Ive also tried localizing the text inside them...

You made the 2 HUD elements signifcantly different (size, colour etc) and placed them in a central location to test?

This is what i tried:
self.hudone = newClientHudElem(self);
self.hudone.alpha = 1;
self.hudone.x = 256;
self.hudone.y = 256;
self.hudone.alignX = "center";
self.hudone.alignY = "middle";
self.hudone setText("^6Haha");
self.hudtwo = newClientHudElem(self);
self.hudtwo.alpha = 1;
self.hudtwo.x = 64;
self.hudtwo.y = 200;
self.hudtwo.alignX = "center";
self.hudtwo.alignY = "middle";
self.hudtwo setText("^2Oh no");
The Haha one appears in pink, but guess what? no "Oh no" text....
The script is fine, because one is appearing, i then tried this by calling it through a different function and still no luck.

Try making them images rather then text, make one really big pink square, and other really big blue circle.
Also switch em around and see which one prints.

Try playing with your use of self. Try hudone = newClientHudElem(self); or self.hudone = newClientHudElem();

Just to butt in here - the reason your HUD elem's arent showing is because they are text, without a font size. Add "hudname.fontscale = 1.4;" to each one and they will show. Also the biggest you can do is 1.4, otherwise it will just fail and you'll get a runtime error.

Nice, thanks for the tip Ghost. Haven't actually used text for HUD's so I was just wildly guessing  Let us know how that goes Topgear, hopefully it should work.
