Simple HUD Template

I made a simplified HUD for myself and decided to turn it into an easy-to-use template so you guys can use it too 🙂
You can find the tutorial for it HERE.

If you use this template, please credit it properly and link back to this post.

If you encounter any issues with this template, you can ask for help on the Killerskins-Discord server.

Infos

The layers (should) have the same name in all of the .psd files.
They are also color coded:

• Yellow: Metal parts
• Green: Background textures (mostly hidden by images, I recommend recoloring them anyways)
• Violet: Main color (usually indicators)
• Red: Indicates areas that are always hidden by something (e.g. abilities). Has to be turned invisible before exporting.
• Blue: Indicates areas that are sometimes hidden (e.g. item slots). Has to be turned invisible before exporting.
• Gray: You do not need to edit that layer at all and they are usually locked, however, you can turn it invisible if you want to, unless it says (Leave untouched).
• Uncolored: Folders containing all the image areas you can drop in your image.

There will also be gray colored folders called “Empty layers for actions (Ignore)”. They are needed in order to not break when batch processing the template.

Required tools

Download the .zip and extract it to the folder “Ui.wad.client”.

• Photoshop + NVIDIA Texture Tools or Intel Texture Works
• If you don’t own Photoshop, you can try editing them with Photopea (no guarantee)

SEASON 12 UPDATE:

Due to a change in filetype to .tex files you now need to convert all .dds files into .tex files after editing:
