C2, no console message. I am using TLK 1.4. Take look at the resource page and see is there anything missing.

Brain, I try your code but engine (TLK1.4) hang up. I try to get to load so I can get to the console to see what going on.

I am not sure why, but this was cause the Torque Engine to lockup. It is this part in game.cs
function GameConnection::onClientEnterGame(%this)
{

+%this.setAmmoAmountHud("0");
+%this.setweapHud("");
+%this.setweappHud("");

}

function GameConnection::onDeath(%this, %sourceObject, %sourceClient, %damageType, %damLoc)
{

%this.setAmmoAmountHud("0");
%this.setweapHud("");
%this.setweappHud("");
// Clear out the name on the corpse
%this.player.setShapeName("");

}
I took this code out, I not sure if it is needed or what is wrong with it. After comment this code out the Torque Engine load up. I have a black square outline, weapon name button and ammo count. If I get new ammo it does count it. I would like get the ammo count working. Thank for any help

Brian, I change the code so you can design bitmap with text over them to use in the game. If you like I can post the code to your thread.
