ToggleUI

A guy i know is makin a vid... and he wondered if he could hide the HUD to make it all more neat. So i said "sure u can"... and i told him to use the ToggleUI console command. But errr... it doesnt work he tells me. So i go in a game... press 6 (my old keybind for ToggleUI) and indeed.. NO GO!

Im puzzled... how come... i SURE it worked befor (months ago). So i dig around a bit and run into this:

Changes from version 6497-7710 of Unreal II XMP: Fix for ToggleUI exploit (you can still toggleUI while spectating, but not while playing)


Excuse me.... its an EXPLOIT? I thought it was a feature... how could hiding the hud be an exploit?

Anyways... bla bla bla... to the point. Anyone here knows a way to quickly hide the hud for a movie without runnin old version 6497?
(sure i know there are more then one ways to Rome)

Thanks for any advise in advance...

Nah its ok man... besides i got that far already . Hmm.. so no other 'simple' way to do it... (console command).

Of course there are other ways... i mean one can shift positions on the screen of hud items and all... but thats a bit more complicated (one had to mod the client for this)

It is not "easy" but sertainly doable. Go in the UIScripts folder in U2XMP and open U2HUD.ui <<Backup the entire folder first>> I believe the second section [TopPieces] gives you all elements of the HUD. Test out what does what by commenting them out with ";", like it is already used in the file a lot.
