Want a menu like this in your mod?  I'll have code samples available in a week or so when it's all tested and debugged.  Have your coders be checking the coding forum.  :)

Counter-Strike mod?

can't wait!

[sartophiketle]

if a counter-strike mod can be done for half-life and ut why not ss (although it's not called counter strike in ut and prolly wouldn't be in ss either).
i mentioned cs because of the amount of menus in it... for weapons selection, armour and so forth.

i would suggest making the menu on the side just long enough to fit the longest entery, and also be dynamic so when a long word is put it, it will stretch

theres alot of empty space after "red team"

also is the weapon menu just like the one from halflife? (where you press the same button multiple times to move down the list?)

also, double uzis  ahhh :)

I haven't showed you its multi-level capabilities yet, either.  I think rather than trying to measure the strings, I'll just have the width be another variable that you pass along to the HUD.

Yeah, the weapon choices in columns are like the half-life weapon selection.  Or will be, when we finally fix the order of all the weapons.  You'll never have more than 3 weapons in a column, so it won't go off the screen like in that shot.  (If you're a HWGuy, it's possible to have 4... if you're stupid.  And that still stays above the bottom row for stats and stuff.)

You're looking at the lead pipe, knife, .22 pistol, dual pistols, .357 revolver, silenced pistol, shotgun, double shotgun, autoshotgun, uzi, double uzi, tommygun, assault rifle, laser blaster, laser rifle, super shotgun, minigun, grenade launcher, contact grenade launcher.

And the cannon.  Which won't be in the game.  Except for the mortar.  But you can't hold that in your hands.  :)
