Hello again, I just wanted to throw this out because I haven't been able to find a solution yet searching around in forums.
I created a new class to display a background texture basically. I have done everything properly, that I can see in creating the new class and added it to the project. I have the DECLARE_HUDELEMENT( MyHuDElement ) call, as well as DECLARE_CLASS_SIMPLE( MyHudElement, vgui::Panel). This file compiles fine. However, if I try to create a new instance of that object in another file, i get errors saying that MyHudElement is undeclared. I am confused because this is what DECLARE_HUDELEMENT should be taking care of. Am I missing something about implementing a new class? Maybe I'm calling it from the wrong place, but where is the best place then to create/initialize new hud elements? (the gHUD.AddHudElement(m_pMyHudElement); call) Also, on a complete tangent, I am trying to correlate all the background stuff with res files with the code. Does someone know a simple explanation of what the difference between PaintBackGroundType 0, 1, and 2 is?
