Removing Weapons, HUD

[Mayaboy]

I guess this is more of a game question than a mapping question...

But I've just made a map that is meant to be walked through and appreciated, not used as a deathmatch arena. Is there a console command to remove everything from the display (hands, guns, the entire hud) except the map itself?

 

[Slainchild]

Yes, there is a command.

Type this into the console:

togglescreenshotmode

People will still be able to fire and kill and such, though ;p

 

[Mayaboy]

that's for UT2003 and/or runtime?

I just type "togglescreenshotmode" in the console during gameplay?

Doesn't seem to work. Any thoughts?

 

[Slainchild]

I know that it works for UT2004, I expected that was the game you're mapping for...

I never heard of "togglescreenshotmode" in UT2003, so it might be UT2004 specific. Alternatively, you can type "showhud" without the quotes to remove everything but the crosshair. You'll have to remove that manually.

you can do "killall hud" and then it will get rid of crosshairs, etc. if the weapon doesnt go away do "killall weapon".

Thanks everybody.

<showhud> worked very well to get rid of the entire HUD, but leaves the gun. So, I tried <showgun> and that worked perfectly as well. The combo gets rid of everything except the crosshair (which can be turned off in the game options browser).
