David - here, this is what the titlepage script file looks like (well, a section of it anyway)
:state=0:music=audiobank\music\ww2\title.wav
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=50,hudy=10,hudimage=gamecore\backdrops\ww2\gametitle.tga,hudmake=display
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=50,hudy=55,hudimage=gamecore\backdrops\ww2\newgame.tga,hudtype=1,hudmake=button
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=50,hudy=65,hudimage=gamecore\backdrops\ww2\exitgame.tga,hudtype=5,hudmake=button
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=50,hudy=50,hudimage=gamecore\backdrops\ww2\cursor.tga,hudmake=pointer
:state=0:state=2
Should answer most of your questions.
In-game HUD uses a similar file IIRC.
Cheers,
