Drivehud is much easier to use and also has a note app that's coming out soon. It already has a built in free badge system, and the hud designer blows hm2 or pt4 out of the water.The good thing is there's free trials for hm2/pt4 and drivehud. But the future is going to be drivehud.
I have PT4 and DriveHUD and you're making some pretty bold statements there. I love DH but it's new and has a long way to go before you can just replace PT4 with it in a difficult cash game. I might do just that on WPN later on (use the heat maps and DH) but the thing is that without notes, I feel a bit naked. I guess they're calling the upcoming note app Player Xray or something to that affect. I can't wait because a good auto note program is absolutely critical. Even though I think PT4 > HM2, NoteCaddy is still the best note tracking program out there. Let's see how Player Xray comes along.
Ok, so I put in a BetOnline session earlier, then tailored and customized the HUD more, and then played another session. It's pretty sick, yeah. I guess I see what you mean by saying it's more flexible than PT4 and HM2 but with all of the addons and things you can get for them now that they've been around for so long, I still think DH has work to do to catch them but it's definitely new wave and innovative. Further, it's absolutely PERFECT for the BetOnline network.
It's definitely not the most user friendly right now when setting up the HUD and without the 2p2 forums I wouldn't have figured all of it out yet. They helped me get a few days ahead in a few hours the other day. Now I'm starting to have things laid out how I want, color coded, etc. It's working out well.
The heat maps and charts/graphs are really, really sick. People who don't like HUDs can say whatever they want but it is definitely NOT stunting our growth as players to physically see villain's full range on a heat map. The entire time we're playing we're being trained on how to categorize players, interpret playing styles and frequencies, and visualize their full range by position. It's pretty invaluable stuff.

This one helped me more than a few time, especially that you can let it pop-up in the middle of the game. its easier to know the range of your opponents
