help with HUD

[Rakiayn]

is it possible to change the size of a text on the HUD?
besides changing its fonttype
if so how can i do this?

its a hud mutator btw

there's no other way than changing with the current font, except for rendering a texture that holds that text -> normal texture with that text or scripted texture with dynamic text

ok.
how can I get the script to know what the player has as a resolution. so i can base the hud on that?

[Shadow]

when you deal with hud/mutator coding you'll come across functions that have pointers (my c++ influence) or references, as it is called in unreal script, to the canvas object :

Like in PostRender(Canvas C), RenderOverlays(Canvas C) etc.

with reading c.*Function / c.*Variable you access functions and variables of the drawing canvas

So the canvas has the variables SizeX and SizeY which stand for the Width (SizeX) and Height (SizeY) of the current screen resolution.
When you have 1024x768 both variables return:

SizeX = 1024
SizeY = 768
