RE: Menu - jaykay - 07-22-2010
this is just a concept, not an actual ingame-screenshot. so, there is nothing to include. if you want to write the code for this menu to be included, go ahead
RE: Menu - rainerzufalldererste - 07-22-2010
I know that it is only a concept! the game menu has the old style! I can only code in C#, and Visual C++ ... and a little bit of normal c++, but not in quakeC
that's the reason!
RE: Menu - master[mind] - 08-04-2010
It was a concept by me, but just that, a concept. I planned to take a hack at it and Quake C but other priorities overcame it(school and a job). I agree with the previous statement. Random demo's in slow mo would be awesome in the background. Keep that instead of programming a camera...too much work and no benefit. The actual menu itself would be a little out of my reach. The dev's working on Xonotic have been deep in the DP and N source for a long time. Just catching up is almost impossible. They do a good job. As for the IRC, hope that works out. Awesome addition. Meanwhile, I'm gonna do mapping and maybe some music, but only once X is released. I have to repractice some of my "aiming" skillz in FPSing. Haven't played for about 6 months.

The problem with making it realtime is that you have to add load times to the menu. I personally find that quite frustrating (like when q2 had demos as menu background, or HL2 which loads map scenes). A video is streamed so it virtually adds no extra loading time. The bad side is that video filesizes can get very big easily.

Great !
About the "main" menu.. It looks like Nexuiz 2.3, but with the buttons on the right instead of the top.
RE: Menu - rainerzufalldererste - 09-26-2010
...is now anyone working on a different menu?

Although loading lots of game data at the menu stage means that load times for joining a server are shorter.
