TF2's Custom (and Cursed) HUDs
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 тра 2024
- A video I spent too much time finally comes out. I look at some Custom HUDs I like and recommend, and check out cursed HUDs from all around.
This content really is a first for me and I hope you all enjoy, let me know how it was. This more than likely will be the only type of video I make for a long time, this project was somewhat a passion project and a test for my own editing skills.
The usual content coming soon, especially since my 2TB hard drive is nearly full after this video.
(If I ever do a vid like this again, I'm going to line up other videos to post while I work on it. Sorry for the big delay)
Credit to @Aarmastah for the last Cursed HUD in the rotation

Hey everyone! Thanks for such a great response on the video, I was really worried about how it would turn out considering this is so far off from my usual content but I'm glad to see the time i put in was worth it. I'm gonna use this pinned comment to kinda "respond" to a bunch of comments I've gotten.
"You sound just like Soundsmith!"
I personally don't hear it but I appreciate that a lot, SoundSmith is a super cool dude and a great content creator so I take that as a big compliment.
"You forgot [insert HUD here]"
There was a lot of HUDs I could have added into the video for sure but I really didnt want to make the video 30 minutes of just listing HUDs and repeating the same "it looks like default HUD but different" statement. I boiled it down to HUDs I was familiar with along with MiddleMann that had come out somewhat recently at the time of script writing. I do love seeing people talking about their favorite HUDs and giving suggestions so keep recommending some to everyone!
"MaidCore was (broken because/looks inspired by/layout like Cruelty Squad)"
I didn't actually know about most of what everyone has been telling me, I only noticed the Cruelty Squad thing because a friend of mine pointed it out once the video went up. I also didn't see anything about minmode having to be either off or on in the hud description and didn't think to check so if it was all broken because of that then that's totally my bad. Also if you haven't, you should play Cruelty Squad, the game is blacksuppositoried and debased.
To cap this off though, when I put a hud in the "cursed" category, that is not to throw shade or any harassment towards the creators of any hud. I think if no one decided to make huds such as MaidCore, Shrek HUD, etc that the world of TF2's huds would be a more boring place. I love seeing huds like these despite me saying they are "cursed" because they are fun to play with and experience even if it's only for a short time. So it should go without saying but don't send any harassment to any creator of any hud you see here, this video was purely for fun and to talk about (while probably niche) a topic I enjoy when it comes to TF2. Thanks again everyone!
you sound more like uncle dane :troll:
edit: upon further inspection i have determined you sound like a strange love-child between soundsmith and uncle dane
good content, but i need to know why ur original for soilder is green
try the scizod hud
Uncle dane and Soundsmith collab coming soon?
You sound like what happens when SoundSmith and Uncle Dane combine their voices.
Uncle Smith.
Unironically, that shrek hud is a labor of love and should be cherished
It really is, I was blown away by how much work was put in. Even though its in the "cursed" huds part it really was fun to use
Yeah, it may have been made for the memes, but it does actually manage to look good and not really interupt gameplay at all.
I want to see a youtuber use it fulltime XD
after all, shrek is love, shrek is life
Shrek hud is a labor of love...
Shrek hud should be cherished for life... .
Idk what’s a more cruel fate, having to use that last hud or being forced to watch morbius until you genuinely enjoy it
Unfunny
I laughed
I’ve watched Morbius and genuinely enjoyed it lmao
Top 3 comments are just the stupidest shit I have every seen
@@rebelfriendlier6082*funny
I see a severe lack of cruelty squad hud in this video, I will never recover
Didn't he show it at the end??
funny how the closest we got to the cruelty hud was maidcore hud since both are brosel hud edits
Same i want to play TF2 while surrounded in the Power in Misery border
@@denzy_lololIs Cruelty Squad Hud the combination of Maid Core and Seizure Hud?
@@redactedoktor no, brosel hud edit
no combinations
just a cruelty squad hud thats built off brosel hud with custom elements (even the borders) and the original cruelty squad health / ammo placement
Using Shrek HUD as a daily driver, I can say that it is the best. I'd say I even got better at the game. PS: I've been using it for 3 months
Perhaps all of our true callings are to use Shrek HUD
I'm sorry.
ive received a divine inspiration from watching this video.
a true centered hud, where every ui element is centered on the screen, on top of the crosshair, no more zipping your eyes over the screen for anything.
i must go forth and craft this hud, tweaked for optimal competitive play.
I loved the part where Morbius said "We have to go to TF2!" and proceeded to morb all over 2Fort.
Morbius is back?!?!
It is the end of 2023 my god
You're a champ for enduring that last one for more then 30 seconds.
I just watched the cursed hud review gameplay, and I genuinely thought it was Soundsmith playing
the last hud is like playing while being overstimulated and your brain is screaming and you're also screaming
Thanks for mentioning my Maidcore Hud. I made it because I was completely bored with most huds and also Saw the layout brainfog used for his hud really inspired me for it. (also yes fuck damage numbers 😎)
I definitely get being bored with most huds now, theres a lot of very samey "minimal style" huds so even if I considered your hud cursed its way different than a lot of the huds that get made now. I did see comments either saying I broke it because I didn't have minmode set to 1 or that it had a similar layout to Cruelty Squad which I didn't even notice until those comments. Thanks for watching and commenting! (how dare you insult damage numbers, i love seeing big number go up it fuels my ape brain)
@@Remox_ I have a version fixxed for comp but it looks identical and I use it in HL
the best hud ever
Labak
THERE YOU ARE. You maid the hud! Is that a real genre of music I happened to stumble into over the course of the past two years, Maidcore? All of the people in your hud are on my spotify playlist!! How frickin' weird to stumble across this in the tf2 community!!
The Shrek Hud is really good! The red Shrek head that appears when you have low health is a great way to quickly notice your health is low without having to focus on looking at your health as much.
Maid Core using the Cruelty Squad font flashbanged me, its style is definitely inspired by that game's HUD (which is to say deliberately hideous)
Thank you for covering my work. Up keeping flawhud, rays, fixes and the editor is all my TF2 time is spent on so it’s really nice to get recognized for that effort. ❤
No problem! You've put in tons of work to all these projects so you definitely deserve the recognition. Thanks for watching the video and keep up the amazing work!
I don't even play TF2 and I watched this whole video and learned so much. Maybe too much.
The cursed HUDs section was mwah chef's kiss 10/10 A+ great editing, very informative, would recommend to a friend
Glad I was so informative, always here to educate (not really)
@@Remox_ I was injected with so much info, but I also definitely went blind from one of those HUDs : ) guess which one
@@kitbeary im so sorry Morbius HUD blinded you
AYYYY thanks for covering budhud! it seems you were super thorough throughout this entire video too, which can be pretty rare when it comes to videos that cover custom huds.
I know a lot of people lately have gotten tired of minimalist huds, so it's nice to hear when there's people who are still enjoying budhud (even if you're using xhud now..but I don't blame you, peaches makes great huds). I'm just a LITTLE biased, but I've tried swapping to other huds to see how the experience is different/what I can improve/etc and I really do just find myself getting pulled back to budhud lmao. I guess using it for like 10 years does that to you.
I think your point about the simplicity of the hud enhancing the TF2 experience is something I've unknowingly been going for with budhud ever since I made it (especially because it was made when I was playing tf2 competitively). I've always leaned more towards minimalist huds instead of artistic huds, so I guess that's why budhud ended up being how it is :D
nice video overall!
Whoa hey, thanks for checking out the video! Huge honor to know you have seen it and enjoyed it! I'm still a sucker for minimalist huds and I'm probably a bit biased as well especially with a lot of the TF2 content creators I watched when I was younger tended to use custom huds. I did try to be as thorough as I could for this video especially with the knowledge I already had on some of the HUDs so I'm glad I could bring that to the table! Thanks again for watching and for the super nice comment, keep up the great work!
I liked it when Mobius said is HUDing and HUDed his way into becoming the CEO and killed John Crueltysquad but ultimately died to Shrek by DMCA strike and got reincarnated as sans lowercase
If you guys want a classic HUD for your big monitor I highly, HIGHLY recommend getting the Quakehud. It's sleak, it's simple, and the text is better to read with the aftermentioned big monitors.
this video is really well made, im a big fan. i am SHOCKED you don't have more views and subs, you really deserve it
Honestly, underrated video.
I love the editing and commentary.
The fact you only have 908 subscribers is criminal.. this was such a fun and interesting video to watch. Very happy to see the MiddleMann hud get some love, and great job
Yo man, this editing is way too good for someone with only 650 subs! I'm definitely liking and subscribing. Your channel is no doubt going to blow up if you continue with this level of quality
Thanks for the compliments! I spent a lot of time on this video, especially with it being the first of it's kind I've ever made. I deliberated on it a lot so I'm glad to hear people enjoyed it. Thanks again!
ive been pondering getting a custom hud but the options always overwhelmed me. thanks for the vid!
That Maidcore HUD is actually a wonderful relic of ancient image boards. The maids are nijiura maids, a very niche subsect of ancient Japanese 2chan. What I'm amazed at is that this HUD came out like not even a year ago lol. I would unironically use this in comp.
It’s weird finding someone who so perfectly references things you like and jokes like you. I’m lovin this Remox chap
Bro you know that your production quality is good when I don't assume you only have 800 subs.
Keep up the good work this is great!
Great video! I am myself quite new to tf2 (I know very late to the party lul) but this video has helped a ton to select a hud that felt right for me. Really excited to see what other videos that you make relating to tf2 (or other games) in the future if you continue to make more videos. Keep it up!!
Hope you enjoy your time with tf2 !
I thought I could handle the last hud, but I couldn't watch that for more than a minute, holy shit you're a legend for standing that more than a few minutes. I could feel my eyes twitching and thought I was gonna throw up!!
Was not expecting to see a HUD based on a niche low-tempo aggressive metal-breakcore genre with the Cruelty Squad font, but here I am.
Dude, your video is super enjoyable, hope you become a big youtuber
That last hud genuinely made me nauseous just looking at it, thanks!
Remox sounds like a mix of soundsmith and dane
i can’t unhear that wtf
honestly the shrek hud is really nice once you shrink some of the PNGs a bit. having a little pocket shrek screaming at you to get health is the best way to remember you're about to die. I also use it with a "what are you doin in my swamp" killsound and a "donkey" hitsound so I might just be insane though
i deadass went "haha the anime girl health bar is a cruelty squad reference, with the tiny hp next to an obnoxiously big icon/anime girl" then i saw that the subtractions indicator was literally the cruelty squad font and i died laughing
for a less cluttered looking centered hud, I've loved BXhud for years now. super clean and easy to read in your peripheral vision
19:25 Dude, "Ogreheal", it was RIGHT THERE
i don't know how you handled the last one for so long i would of just puked my brains out if i had to deal with that for more than 10 seconds at a time
That last HUD makes me feel an irresistible urge to thank my doctor
Bro wtf is this editing, you should be so much more popular. Great job, and the shrek HUD will be the only way I play this game from now on😂
i love the music you used in this:)
Your laugh is awesome, subbed 😎
Dude the thing where you can't stop switching hud is so relatable i cannot go one day without changing hud
Thanks for your video, glad to know new HUDs
That last HUD is just the definition of sensory overload
very on point for a persona fan to freak out like that
nice seconed channel soundsmith and nice collab with teal opal, it took me a quarter through the video to notice it since your chill voice only faintly match your original voice. At the half-way it confirmed it for me and I know you know how sounds work so you are more than capable of doing this. I only ask why
I'd seen some of raysfire's recent content and had no idea he had deep roots in tf2. Kind of blows my mind to see it actually
yous got yourself a new subscriber. good content man (pyro thumbs up gif)
My favorite quote unquote "cursed hud" is DosHud. It just makes the game look like Doom/Duke Nukem and I love it. It's very difficult to play with cause it covers so much but its very fun.
eve hud is the goat and no one will tell me otherwise
Thanks for using my comic sans hud! Glad you enjoyed(?) it.
Thanks for checking out this vid! I definitely did enjoy using it though I won't lie, there was something really nice about it. Like I've said in other comments though, just because I put something in the "cursed" category doesn't mean I think it's just straight up bad but it's more the fact that they can be such off shoots to what other HUDs go for even in small ways such as font choice. Keep up the great work and thanks again for checking the video out!
Thank you for making the comic sans hud
Speaking of HUDs, I remember back in high school, I used a really nice one called FrankenHUD. It was clean, kept a similar visual feel to vanilla and had a really cool class select screen that looked like a numpad on a keyboard that looked really nice. I don't think it's been updated in years though. It's probably my favourite HUD mod of all time
Currently, I'm using a modified ToonHUD I made called witchHUD which features a custom font I made myself as well as two purple hexagons that spin in opposite directions for a crosshair
It's goofy but I really really like it since it's kinda mesmerising lmao
I unironically have the comic sans hud and have had it for quite a while, i just like it.
I know nobody cares, but some HUDs I’ve liked using:
ToonHUD - the first HUD I’ve ever used. A classic.
AntsHUD - can customize with enabled_ folder
SkyHUD - very nice background and simple layout
There are probably more I can’t remember so uh yea
The comic sans hud has incredible readability. Prob gonna switch to that once I get into the game again (6 months+ lol)
Thank you youtube recommends. This was gold.
Very well made, watched the whole vid
I remember seeing that maid core one on gamebanana when looking for a hud which I'll edit when I look in my folder for which one it was, but it was pretty nice.
I did think the maid core was a tad odd, but Im sure the concept of seeing anime girls during your tf2 session will be a novel to many.
CONGRATS ON 1K
Very cool video!
i just woke up, went to the bathroom and after i returned you started sounding SUSPICIOUSLY like soundsmith
that last one really was the gorbino quest of video game huds
a side note is that there is a cruelty squad hud called "hope eradicated"
for the maid core thing i was so embrassed that i knew the album the entire hud was based off
HUD's to sever your divine light to
ive been using toon hud FOR YEARS my go-to
Honestly, i think m0re HUD is a really nice HUD to use, as its super customizable within the game itself, making the HUD unique in your own personal way
Congrats on the diagnosis and welcome to the club.
I had trouble just moving and resizing the 2d player class on bud hud and then you say bud hud makes editing the hud easy made myself really dumb. Love the video
I like the editing
I feel like this is soundsmith on another account
great video :)
such a good video
to give some context to the maidcore hud, it's based on nijiura maids, which is a sort of meme or community from the japanese imageboard futabachan. The font in the hud is supposed to be similar to the font used on futabachan which is why it looks like that. The anime girls are some of the nijiura maids, specifically the purple one is yakui, a maid who i addicted to pharmaceuticals, and the goth looking one is ozoi, who is a kind of lovecraft occult practitioner maid. You can maybe imagine the sort of meme that started on futabachan from inventing maids who you would never want as maids.
3:29 I saw that sign, fellow Yakuza enjoyer. Thats a good one
18:14 the legend of fiona breath of the swamp
I can't unhear soundsmith now
My friend really liked that 5th cursed HUD. He liked it so much that he's doing a funny little happy dance on the floor :)
changing the huds also just keeps the game fresh, i’m an avid spy player and we just love changing our view models, graphics, huds, etc, just for fun
13:50 is a really cool cruelty squad reference
HOW DO U ONLY HAVE 864 SUBS???????????????? YOU HAVE AMAZING EDITING SKILLS AND FUNNY BRO HOW???
this is worth a sub
dude, your thumbnail with the cruelty squad border makes me actually want a cruelty squad hud now lol
The fact that most of the cursed / joke HUDs are still semi-minimalist white font HUDs makes them so much funnier than they should be
so, this video has inspired me, im going to attempt to make a ms paint hud.
persona fan having a breakdown? unheard of
Congrats on the diagnosis!
amazing video
the maid core hud is based off of the Nijiura Maids, they make a genre of music called maidcore each their own twist if youd like to know more about them theres a wiki page
Back in the day i used to use the "shellnut HUD" a HUD based on Sr Pelos TF2 In A Shellnut series, it was probably the worst thing i had ever used but i loved it, pretty sure it hasnt been updated since 2015 though so dont even know if it works now
eve hud is the hud i used the most in almost 4k hours, it's clean and not far away from vanilla, yet too good looking, try it!
never heard of flaw hud even though its objectivly the best one
BadTimesV2 is the best HUD i've ever saw, hands down
You gotta see DarHud its actually a pretty good hud i always come back to when changing huds
FUNke hud is lowkey a slapper, i highly recommend it
That last HUD, I think Dante from DMC sums it up best: "What the hell is this?!"
Hey congrats on the diagnosis! It was the best moment of my life personally
Nvm you said that Witcher 1 sucks I take everything back hope you get the wrong medicine
got baited by the cruelty squad thumbnail. now I have to make my own cruelty squad hue I guess
That's it I'm only gonna use the maidcore hud from now on
I need to see a Cruelty Squad HUD now
most cursed video but the shrek hud was the most well made one
good video!
I personally fell in love with E.v.e. Hud. Unfortunately it doesn't see many updates, especially in the past couple years, so it has a few bugs, particularly with MvM, but outside of that I think it's perfect. Looks clean, easily readable, charge bars are above ammo. While I may switch to ToonHud if any future updates break Eve further, it'll remain my favorite for a long time.
