Title: Character selection menu
Post by: Khub on January 11, 2013, 01:03:12 PM
Hello everyone.
The new Clockwork character selection menu makes me mad. Having around 10 characters, I need to wait for them to stop moving, click the very right one, wait for them to stop moving again and then click three times, until I manage to hit the tiny tick button and finally load my character.
I'll code a selection menu much same as we had with Openaura HL2RP, if you'll agree.


Do you?

I agree, not much to say, too much eye candy and it isn't really functional enough, looks pretty but takes me forever considering my unit is at the end

+Support as the CW menu is just so slow and lame.

Added a new poll option - keep CW menu but make it faster and make characters display ordered by last time played.

Just dont make them fly stupidly and get stuck in eachother, just make them glide softly

edit:

im fine with scrolling through the current menu, just make this stop: (http://i.imgur.com/baDbw.png)

I don't find the new CW menu slow at all and I prefer it to the old HL2RP menu.

+support to keep CW menu but speed it up a bit anyway

why add extra time to pick your character when the old menu worked fine

because it looks pretty and it doesn't take extra time just press the tick straight away lol

too bad that doesnt work because you need to wait for the character to be i n the middle and not moving before the tick is enabled

It's doesn't matter how pretty it looks, it's still a pile of dicks compared to the simplicity of the last one. I want it back.

As long as the character creation UI stays the same, and you're making the fixed UI fit in, I'll support this. The new character selection is annoying.

IDK about you but I manage to select characters who are off to the side.

I cant select any character for the few seconds after i've scrolled, even if it's just once, the old menu was much better

The voting has decided, we'll be getting rid of the new character selection menu. The creation menu will stay unaltered, I don't see any need to change it.
I will post in this thread when I do some progress on it. Take in mind that this is wishlist priority - nearly everything has priority over this so it might take a while before we get to code this.
