About this mod

Toggle all HUD on/off with a single key press in HELLDIVERS 2! Also individual keybinds for hiding capes, the datapad or sample container on your waist, as well as three keybinds for various accessories on some armors (like shoulder/elbow/kneepads)!

This mod allows you to quickly toggle all HUD elements on/off with a single key press (Caps Lock by default, but this can be changed).
The game now has an official "Toggle HUD" keybind, but it doesn't work consistently for myself and a few others so I'm keeping this mod updated.

Update: I've also added a keybind toggle for capes (including their shadows) on F1 by default. You can even set it so that it's active when starting the game so you don't even need to press the keybind ever. See further below for how to do that.

Update 2 Electric Boogaloo: There are now many extra toggles available! Now you can toggle off the Datapad (F3) and Sample Container (F4) that are on your character's waist, the screen on your left arm (F6) in case you're using an outfit mod that looks weird with the screen floating there, various arm and shoulder accessories on some armors (F7, see the example using the SC-37 Legionnaire in the images above), and lastly some shoulder and leg accessories (F8). You can rebind any of them using the steps further below.



Note 1: The datapad is sadly tied to other models like the dropship, so hiding one will hide the other. Nothing I can do about it.
Note 2: I avoided binding anything to F2 or F5 because the game uses those two keys for showing performance info.


WHAT YOU NEED:
  • Just my .zip file, everything is included!
INSTALLATION:
  • Extract the contents of my Toggle HUD for HELLDIVERS 2.zip into your game's installation folder, afterward you should have a few new files and a reshade-shaders folder under steamapps\common\Helldivers 2\bin.
  • Boot up the game and use Caps Lock to toggle the HUD on/off
TO CHANGE KEYBINDS:
  • Press Home key
  • Go to "Add-ons" tab
  • Under ShaderToggler click the "Edit" button to the left of the toggle you want to rebind
  • Click the box to the right of "Key Shortcut" and then press the key (or controller button) you want to use instead
  • Click "OK" and then "Save all Toggle Groups"
TO MAKE CAPE TOGGLE ALWAYS ACTIVE WHEN STARTING THE GAME:
  • Press Home key
  • Go to "Add-ons" tab
  • Under ShaderToggler click the "Edit" button to the left of Toggle Cape
  • Checkmark "Is active at startup"
  • Click "OK" and then "Save all Toggle Groups"

A huge thank you to Frans Bouma, the creator of ShaderToggler! This wouldn't have been possible without them.
