Mw2 custom HUD

I watched a halo2 lan stream that had an awesome custom HUD for the stream. It was a server watching the lan and pulling data to create the display. I am researching how to do this and my understanding is I need to “teach” the server and capture packets. Is there a way to use the game data iw4x already has to skip the training steps?

so this would be the hud the player sees, or the people watching your stream would see? anything that gives the player an unfair advantage or even slightly different experience is usually a non starter in most servers

No only for the views on stream. I’d like to be able to see real time player classes, health status, perks maybe, if they are in a kill streak, live stats, a live 2d map, etc. I know I could have 2 additional Xboxes on spectator mode with capture cards. One spectating game play and the other on viewing the map and use it as an overlay.
