HUD Scoreboard Fix

Recently I have seen many posts about problems with the scoreboards for custom huds where nothing is showing up on the scoreboard. This is probably due to values in the scoreboard.res file that are missing or incorrect. Previously there were similar problems with the medal_width value which was missing, which caused the scoreboard messing up. However, since there have already been two updates (Invasion and Gun Mettle) that have had the medal icon on the scoreboard, this is most likely not the problem, unless of course you haven't updated your hud for over half a year. Instead, it is most likely due to the lack of values for the killstreak_width and killstreak_image_width in your scoreboard.res file. In the Tough Break update (correct me if I'm wrong) the scoreboad was edited, and the way the killstreaks of players were displayed was changed. Custom huds didn't have defined values for the two, and therefore the scoreboards are messed up.

What can you do?

1. Simplest fix would be to check if there is an update for your hud that fixes the scoreboard. If so, just download the update and go on your merry way.

2. If there is no update for your hud that fixes the scoreboard, then you will have to manually add in a couple of values yourself. To do this, open up your scoreboard.res file (yourcustomhud/resource/ui) in some application like notepad++ where you can edit it. Add in these values for killstreak_width and killstreak_image_width. If it still isn't fixed, just tweak those numbers until you find something that works.
