<div class="IPBDescription">finally being able to play in 640*480 :p</div>Hi Guys!

For the next months I am stuck on a notebook and as everybody knows ns2 is pretty demanding. Now it is the case that the game is close to playable for me in 640*480 (r_shadows 0, r_bloom 0, r_atmospherics 0). The problem is that the game does not really support this kind of low resolution yet (well I see no reason it would have to once its optimized anyway....). For example you are not able to buy weapons at the armory and the commander hud is overlapping. Also things like tooltips are a pain in the ass.

I managed to disable the tooltips (including sound) and scale down the scoreboard. I just started to also scale down the commander hud. There is a variable declared as "kCommanderGUIsGlobalScale", which I assume is some kind of coefficient to scale down the hud as a whole. So far I tried to scale down one element by one(e.g. logout button), but thats pretty time consuming. My problem is that I can not find the place where this variable is declared so I could reduce the number and scale down all at once.
Here a piece of code so you see the variable in the context....
<!--c1--><div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain'><!--ec1-->class 'GUICommanderLogout' (GUIScript)

GUICommanderLogout.kBackgroundWidth = 146 * kCommanderGUIsGlobalScale
GUICommanderLogout.kBackgroundHeight = 92 * kCommanderGUIsGlobalScale
GUICommanderLogout.kBackgroundScaleDefault = Vector(1, 1, 1)
GUICommanderLogout.kBackgroundScalePressed = Vector(0.9, 0.9, 0.9)

GUICommanderLogout.kMouseOverColor = Color(0.8, 0.8, 1, 1)
GUICommanderLogout.kDefaultColor = Color(1, 1, 1, 1)
.
.
.<!--c2--></div><!--ec2-->

My second problem is that I dont find any lau file about the drawing of the marine buy menu. Can someone tell me in which file I can find it? I would also like to down scale that, because I hope I will be able to buy weapons again.

I hope you can help me and sorry if I missinterpret something. I am a noob in terms of programming.
