About This Mod

Toggle all HUD on/off with a single key press in HELLDIVERS 2! Also includes keybinds for toggling fog, bloom, capes, datapad, some armor accessories, and more!

Note: You must install this manually, do not try to throw it at a mod manager like HD2A.

Note 2: I avoided binding anything to F2, F5, or F6 because the game uses those three keys for showing performance info.

Note 3: You can set any of these toggles so that they're active when starting the game so you don't even need to press the keybind each time you play. See instructions how to do this further below.

This mod allows you to quickly toggle all HUD elements on/off with a single key press (Right Bracket 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, plus this mod has evolved into more than just a HUD toggle now.

Other toggles:

  • []Capes (including their shadows): F1[/] []Datapad that's on your character's waist: F3.[/] []Minimal-ish HUD: F4[/] []Various arm and shoulder accessories on some armors (see the example using the SC-37 Legionnaire in the images above): F7[/] []Some shoulder and leg accessories: F8[/] []The screen on your left arm in case you're using an outfit mod that looks weird with the screen floating there: F10[/] []Democracy Officer's head (very buggy, also hides some NPC models and dropship): F11[/] []Less Fog (two seperate toggles which can be combined together): Minus, and Plus[/] []Bloom and Lens Flare: Backslash "\"[/]

Update 1. 73: The Galactic Emergency update (Patch 1. 003. 000) sadly broke the Sample Container toggle, it's no longer possible to hide as it's tied to many other models.

Update 1. 74:Β Removed the weapon accessory toggle since it became very buggy with this patch, and you can just customize your gun officially now anyway.

WHAT YOU NEED:

  • []Just my .zip file, everything is included![/]
INSTALLATION:
  • []Extract the contents of my Toggle HUD for HELLDIVERS 2.zip into: 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 A 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 the toggle you want[/] []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.
