While trying to install the Bumper Cars file, I screwed up the basic HL/TFC dl files. Ended up reloading HL from the CD, upgrading TFC to current version, and got the game working again. But I have lost the information displays at the bottom (health/armor) and note that the icons for weaponry (upper left) and carnage (upper right) are not right. Names are in color but not the method of death.

Any thoughts?

Yeah, your hud either got deleted or replaced. Probably the latter, considering that the .pak file in TFC contains the deault one. Look in your TFC/sprites folder for a sprite and/or text file/s that name's have something to do with HUD. Delete those. Be sure to check your valve and halflife folder's sprite folders as well.

If that doesn't work, then either download a custom hud, or download a program that can open and extract files from a .pak file (HLMV for instance). Open up pak0.pak in the TFC folder. Go to the sprites section, and extract all the hud files (hud.txt, tfchud01 etc., tfc_dmsg) to your TFC/sprites folder. I doubt that tfhud.qc and the hudbitmaps will be necessary, but do the same with them if you have to. If the files you just extracted don't have or have an incorrect extension, then change them properly. Add .spr to the end for sprites, .txt for the text file, blahblahblah.

If THAT doesn't work, then you need serious help

Yup, that fixed it.
Had to search a bit for the file but got one to work.
Tks VP.
