Class switch stays default #53

I have had FrankenHUD in the past and loved it, particularly how clean and non-intrusive the class switching menus were. After the past few updates and a hard drive replacement, I'm installing TF2 and all my previous mods/HUDs. For some reason the class switching menus are the default ones. I have downloaded and re-downloaded several different versions of FrankenHUD and none of them seem to do the trick. I have made absolutely sure the HUD is correctly installed each time.

If I remember correctly, TF2 refuses to load certain HUD files if the HUD's version info doesn't match TF2's (as in https://steamcommunity.com/app/440/discussions/0/365172547948814948/ )

It's possible that this is what's happening.

Thank you for the comment! According to that thread as well as some further reading I've done, the UI versions are compatible. Unless the version number is different than 2 since Jungle Inferno, this should not be the problem.

Update! After searching around a bit more, I discovered that the files were organized in such a way that TF2 did not recognize certain files to be there. Resources, scripts, and a few other folders/files were put into a folder called "hud_src" and all I had to do was move the contents of that folder into the HUD folder.
