Summary

In Nexuiz 2.4 there is the option for a more advanced hub as pictured below.



Note: the netgraph is separate from sbar_hudselector. To enabled the netgraph type, "shownetgraph 1" in your console. Optionally, you may add it to your autoexec.cfg in your Nexuiz/data/video (possibly ~/.nexuiz/data/video on Linux/Mac) directory. If it does not exist, you can create it.

Making It Happen

1. Download the last version of Nexuiz (2.3) and extract it if you haven't already.

2. Download the latest Nexuiz engine build and extract it into your Nexuiz directory, overwriting the old ones. (NN Hosted (last updated 12-26-07))

3. Run Nexuiz and drop the console, type sbar_hudselector 1 to enable the new HUD. Optionally, you may add it to your autoexec.cfg in your Nexuiz/data/video (possibly ~/.nexuiz/data/video on Linux/Mac) directory. If it does not exist, you can create it.
Thanks so much -z-!
This is great! I like being able to see the time left and the score without having to bring up the full scoreboard.

Anyone else having a problem with sound though? For me, most of the sounds don't load with the new engine. I tried digging around in the nexuiz folder, but I don't see a sound folder.
I just noticed that the error messages I've been getting when a map loads indicates that it is trying and failing to load the sounds from the server. Does this make sense? I figured the sounds would be on the client side (my computer).

Maybe this is something that changes in 2.4? Does everyone else get normal sound? If so, maybe this is only a problem on Macs.
Can you take a screenshot of the errors? I'm not sure I've ever come across this problem.
Below is an snippet of the errors. I get a long list of errors since it does this for all of the weapon sounds, announcer, etc...

Sound sound/misc/hitground.wav not found
Download rejected: Server does not have the file "sound/misc/hitground.wav"
You may need to separately download or purchase this game/mod to get this file

I'm not sure if these errors are related to the new HUD. I have never come across this error before (or perhaps I just haven't payed enough attention).

After you patched it, the chat isn't in the bottom left??

For a while, the chat messages appeared up with the other console notifications. Just download the latest version again and it will be in the normal place again Icon_wink
