CenterID

I really want to get rid of that centerID, because my crosshair doesn't even have to be on a player before it shows up. I find it frustrating and annoying to have on, because I don't use crosshair and I therefore end up relying on the centerID. It destroys my longdistance aim.

How can I remove it completely?

Not sure if theres a command but I know this works.
What you need is a file called hl2mp_english.txt
http://rapidshare.com/files/178269122/hl2mp_english.txt

Search for the following items in the test file.
"Playerid_sameteam" "Friend: %s1 Health: %s2"
"Playerid_diffteam" "Enemy: %s1"
"Playerid_noteam" "%s1 Health:%s2"
"Team" "Team %s1"

Now add 2 slashes // to the begining so the game knows to ignore those entries e.g

You may still want to know who is on your team so I didn't comment it out.
"Playerid_sameteam" "Friend: %s1 Health: %s2"
//"Playerid_diffteam" "Enemy: %s1"
//"Playerid_noteam" "%s1 Health:%s2"
"Team" "Team %s1"

The file goes in C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\username\half-life 2 deathmatch\hl2mp\resource

Thank you so much! It has really helped.

shit, If I had known this before I could have used it on the frag vid I'm working on...
Thanks a lot anyway, it will surely come handy on any future one hahaha.

just found out there is a cvar for this.
