Change the true to false, since you are using a 2d image.

Change the true to false, since you are using a 2d image.How's that related? You can't use anything except a 2d shader for HUDs either way.
@Topic
Are you calling this anywhere?

Code Snippet
Plaintextself.generator_waypoint = newHudElem();
self.generator_waypoint setWaypoint( false,"generator_waypoint");
self.generator_waypoint SetTargetEnt(self);making that change made me lose my arrow, and now there's nothing.
would this suggest my shader is invalid?

I don't know if you can have waypoint HUDs on triggers. Have you tried a script_model? Worked for me.

I was able to play the arrow waypoint on the trigger fine.
are there other options in AssetManager I need to consider besides setting it to 2d?

shows an arrow when using SetTargetEnt, unlike before when nothing showed up

Where did SetShader() go?self.generator_waypoint_model = spawn( "script_model",self.origin);
self.generator_waypoint_model setModel( "tag_origin" );
self.generator_waypoint = newHudElem();
self.generator_waypoint setWaypoint( false,"waypoint_defuse");
self.generator_waypoint SetTargetEnt(self.generator_waypoint_model);

from Zeroy's script reference
newdeathicon SetWayPoint( true , shader);
<offscreenMaterialName> Material to draw when waypoint is offscreen
newdeathicon SetWayPoint( true , shader);
<offscreenMaterialName> Material to draw when waypoint is offscreen

Yeah, I know that. But I'm pretty sure you still also need SetShader().

Did you try a stock 2D image (waypoint_revive or something) to see if it is the image or the code?

Okay, so then it's likely to be the code. Try switching the order of SetWaypoint() and SetShader(). In my code (which does work), I call SetShader() before SetWaypoint().

self.generator_waypoint_model.generator_waypoint SetTargetEnt(self.generator_waypoint_model);
I even made it so nothing was a trigger. tested with both the revive hud and generator and still and arrow.
this function is an ArrrayThread of multiple triggers, (not trigger_multiples)
