Tempust85 Posted January 19, 2014 Author Posted January 19, 2014 The backgrounds I stole from DF2, except for the main menu which I made. Circa likes this
minilogoguy18 Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 Did you only make a 4:3 ratio menu? What about widescreen? Most people are probably going to be running widescreen now a days, surprised there is still support for 4:3.
eezstreet Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 Did you only make a 4:3 ratio menu? What about widescreen? Most people are probably going to be running widescreen now a days, surprised there is still support for 4:3.It should be fine except for the text and background image, which could be subject to stretching.
Tempust85 Posted January 19, 2014 Author Posted January 19, 2014 Everything is made in 4:3. I had a look and it stretches everything. I may make a widescreen patch, but not until everything else is finished.
minilogoguy18 Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 IMO these days it should just be made in widescreen and ditch 4:3 altogether, who the F is still using a square monitor these days anyway? That's like saying cassette tapes are still relevant. Circa likes this
Tempust85 Posted January 20, 2014 Author Posted January 20, 2014 Would be great if OpenJK supported 1920x1080 & 1280x720 using new r_mode's rather than having to use r_mode -1 + r_customwidth + r_customheight.
GPChannel Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 The menu is perfect,BUT i think create a new cursor,because this lighsaber is Kyle's JK:JO hilt.Create Kyle's old DF2 saber hilt.I think..... (Sry for my English) hhunter6 likes this
Tempust85 Posted January 20, 2014 Author Posted January 20, 2014 Yeah I noticed that too, will fix later on.
katanamaru Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Really nicely done! Ah the memories... 1998 was a fun year in gaming for me. I know JK came out in 97, but I got to play it in 98. Stoiss likes this

hhunter6 Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 Looks awesome!! just wondering is there a way to convert the saber hilt to the df2 hilt? I think that would look pretty sweet instead of the JO hilt.
minilogoguy18 Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 Of course, it's a simple image file, he's already planning on changing it I believe.
Trank Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 Wow man, great work on the main menu. I think keeping in faithful to how the old one looks is the best idea but making it look better. Which you have cleary done so far. Great work. Tempust85 likes this
Tempust85 Posted January 29, 2014 Author Posted January 29, 2014 I'm wanting to redo all the backgrounds at some stage. If someone here at the Hub would like to try their hand in the recreations, by all means.
DarthPhae Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 Had a few ideas how the menu could look so I made this concept. Thought that green lightsaber looked good in the orange menu so I threw in some more green. I think it looks good, but I might of over did it. Also as you can see I traced the drawing of Kyle from the new game menu and placed it in the main menu. That sketch was always my favorite part of the original DF2 menu. Perhaps it would be cool to create a new original sketch for the main menu using the same kind of style. Maybe Kyle and Jerrec fight along the rocks with the Crow flying overhead. Or, something like that. Anyways had these ideas just running around in my head so just thought I'd share them. Love what you all are doing with this mod and wish you guys the best of luck.

Stoiss Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 Really nice you should get it to look like this DT
Trank Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 That does look nice, but the one DT is doing fits more. Too much green in my opinion. But that is awesome nonetheless.

I'm liking this but it is a bit too much green. Maybe a different menu button background color?
Archangel35757 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Rather then green rectangles... try making menu text letters glow with green border.
minilogoguy18 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Yeah, that would be much nicer, only the selected one at that. Archangel35757 likes this
