I believe there is a command to remove your HUD

Don't know what it is though.

Why? What's wrong with removing them until the next time you close GMod?

If you're doing a machinima. then a sever is not the place to do it.
Especially with the lag.

Nothing fancy you just need to save it as a lua file and put it in lua/autorun. Bascially removes death notices and prints Dead into your console instead
May have to start it using lua_openscript_cl autorun/filename.lua

[lua]
function GAMEMODE:AddDeathNotice()

print("Dead")
end
[/lua]

Might be able to use the camera tool, unless you want your other tools to be visible.

The console command (if you mean killfeed) is hud_deathnotice_time (x) default is 6. Just put 0 to remove it. Of course, you would have to type this EVERY game, but it works.

Just create a file called autoexec.cfg and place it inside garrysmod\garrysmod\cfg

and add hud_deathnotice_time 0 to the first line, this will make sure it automatically inputs the command for you, everytime you get into a server/play singleplayer.
