BlackHUD

Description
CAUTION:
There have been incidents of addon conflicts. Some subscribers reported that the BlackHUD menu does not work properly. It turns out that installing multiple HUD addons is the main cause for these issuses. Please only install one HUD addon, since all HUD addons use the same functions and scripts to retrieve information about the player.

I will try to contact the developers of the conflicting addons to work out a fix for these issues but for now the only option to keep BlackHUD working is to avoid installing it in combination with conflicting addons.


List of addons that are known to cause issues with BlackHUD:


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


This is a HUD that displays every useful information for players with a slim design.

It has imperial, metric, UNIX time and "Source Units" speed indication.

My goal is to provide a HUD that is based on LUA only. People should subscribe to this addon because they like it, not because they see black and pink.

This way only host players and dedicated server need to subscribe BlackHUD or add it to the collection. Client players don't have to subscribe it to see everything and if they don't like this HUD they can disable it for themselves.

You can toggle BlackHUD on and off and select your preferred time and speed measurement type inside the Spawnmenu under "Utilites" and then "BlackHUD".

The HUD color, provided you haven't custom color enabled, and the rank name on the HUD, provided you haven't disabled team/rank display, depends on the team you are in. BlackHUD supports ULX Ranks and every other administration addon that uses the Garry's Mod Team-System to create and manage ranks and their colors.

BlackHUD supports following gamemodes:
  • Sandbox
  • TTT
  • DarkRP

BlackHUD Currently shows:
  • Time and Date (indicated in your preferred format)
  • Your steam profile avatar. Avatar border is colored with your rank/team or custom color
  • Your rank/team and your nickname, colored with your rank/team or custom color (You can toggle rank/team display in the HUD menu.)
  • Your kills, deaths and K/D-Ratio
  • Health and armor
  • Weapon name, clip, ammo and secondary ammo if applicable
  • Your speed (indicated in your preferred format)
  • Your ping (connection latency) on the server in milliseconds
  • A small compass with the cardinal points and bearing you're looking at.

You can choose the following:
  • Toggling the entire HUD on and off
  • Toggling the time and date display on and off
  • Toggling the rank/team name display in your HUD
  • Toggling the weapon and ammunition display position
  • Toggling between rank/team color and custom color
  • Colorization menu for custom HUD color
  • Time display format: american, asian, european, UNIX
  • Speed display unit: imperial, metric and "source units" per second

If you like my work and want to support it you can buy me a coffee[www.paypal.com].
You can donate any amount you want. You don't have to but it would be really nice.

BlackHUD should be pretty stable on its own. However, other addons may collide with BlackHUD and cause problems. I can't guarantee a fix for every single addon on the GMod steam workshop but you can help me finding the troublemakers by looking for addons that cause these problems and report them to me either via this comment section or via chat. When I have collected enough addons which cause problems with the menu of BlackHUD, I will try to work out a general fix to make it compatible with these addons again.

For whatever reason it started working again after a good reset of my addons, but I'm unsure if it's recurring for other people.

It turns out that the problems with the menu not working properly are due to conflicts with other HUD addons. I will try to contact the developers of the other addons so I can lookup their source code and find the colliding code and fix BlackHUD. Until that happens, the only option is to have only one HUD addon installed. I've put a list of known addons that are causing issues on the addon description. If you find another issue and are able to narrow down the addon causing it, please feel free to contact me or report it here in the comments so other people can reproduce the issue and confirm it.
