DarthPhae Posted February 19, 2014 Posted February 19, 2014 Okay so this version is much closer to the original DF2 menu. What you guys think? Bek, Barricade24, Grab and 6 others like this

Circa Posted February 19, 2014 Posted February 19, 2014 It looks great. Although the green saber cursor sticks out like a sore thumb. Not sure what to do about that.
minilogoguy18 Posted February 19, 2014 Posted February 19, 2014 Well we just thought it would be a good old+new mix on things, old as in it's Qu Rahns saber and new as in using the JK2 pointer. I like it, it's got a good blend of old and new. I'm also liking that it's already formatted in widescreen since IMO, we shouldn't even bother with 4:3 images for menus, load screens or cinematics since no ones using a square monitor anymore these days. You should make it higher resolution though, my monitor resolution isn't even high (1600x900) and it's still fits easily within my monitor with plenty of space. True PC gamers run high screen resolutions, we wouldn't want the menus to look low resolution because they'd be stretched to fit. Circa likes this
Tempust85 Posted February 20, 2014 Author Posted February 20, 2014 @@DarthPhae That looks awesome! Can you please send me the PSD so I can chop it up and get this in-game? Also, would REALLY appreciate it if you could recreate some more backgrounds for us.
minilogoguy18 Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 ^I was thinking exactly that when playing the latest demo, we really could use all the little screens and loading screens that show in between levels to really make it feel less like playing JA and more like playing DF2.

Tempust85 Posted September 27, 2014 Author Posted September 27, 2014 What does everyone think? Concept atm, not in-game. Keeping more true to the original than the last one I did. Numfast and Bek like this
minilogoguy18 Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 Cool that it's like the old menu but I kinda liked Darth Phae's as it was similar to the original but was more our own. I think it should also be made in 16:9 and not 4:3 unless you think we should include 4:3 menus, 16:9 is a must though.
Ramikad Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 I prefer Darth Phae's version, background and font. Imo it would be nice to have both 16:9 and 4:3 (I have an old 4:3 screen, and I'm probably not the only one)...
Omicron Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 I have a 16:10 ratio o.O I prefer DP's version too, probably because of the simple font used in yours DT. Looks god apart from that though
GPChannel Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 Very good menu, its looks like in dark forces2 , but i think you should use Darth Phae's menu
