warp2ukew · #1 06-11-2002, 09:42 AM

Ok posted in the screen below is the new q selection for maloria by Jagen. He gave me permission to post a screen of it. It is not released to the public yet, but when CyberX and Gastly see it, if they like it, it will go public (lots of commas lol) anyway heres the screenie

warp2ukew · #2 06-11-2002, 09:42 AM

NPCs don't show up on an alt+1 (full screen) shot
here's a pic:
I will probably have gastly improove the images first before it's released to the public

that looks HORRIBLE however it does become a little more pleasing to the eye everytime i look.
trouble is, u need tomake sure each gif is in the centre for each item on the sevrer otherwise it looks crappy to one side of the boxes

making a Q menu is complex enough, centering EVERY image would be kindof hard because I would need to set about two more arrays just for each image width and height, it would probably lag more than help

i know its hard, thats why i havent made on

and thats my point, its hard and pointless.....

warp2ukew · #10 06-11-2002, 10:28 AM

Well not pointless, they are pretty cool.

sure they re, if like isaid they are done right and every image is in the centre and it doesnt lag, which is ALOT of work....

warp2ukew · #12 06-11-2002, 10:31 AM

True, but with a good team and a lot of work it will turn out pretty nice. Jagen did you do this alone? I am sure Gastly can help a little with the alignment (sp?) of the items.

Falcor · #13 06-11-2002, 10:33 AM

What are you talking about? It is incredibly easy to center an image!

konidias · #14 06-11-2002, 10:33 AM

For crying out loud, all you have to do is make all the icons 32x32 pixels or something.. you can center them in the actual image.

in my case, going through hundreds of npcs in u.n and centreing the image, then reuploading is not EASY as im sure it isnt for maloria even with there few npc's.

Pith · #16 06-11-2002, 10:44 AM

ugliest crap ever!

Python523 · #17 06-11-2002, 10:49 AM

I probably could have someone redo all the weapons for the 30 x 30 pixel size, i thought you ment use a script to center them

Wouldn't be to hard with script, just some math.

Faheria_GP4 · #19 06-11-2002, 11:51 AM

That looks Horrid.......Please re-do.........No wonder all the Maloria staff hates me lol. They put up ugly npcs like that, I talk trash about the NPC they yell at me when i get on. Its all good.

azuretek23 · #20 06-11-2002, 11:57 AM

good scripting ugly graphics dont bash on it, it works great just the graphics need some heavy changing

Python523 · #21 06-11-2002, 12:04 PM

I'll have a maloria gat work on a new graphic when I wake up tomorow morning

I believe with that answer this thread should stop. Everyone carry on.

Btw it doesn't look that great, if you are going to do one. Make it look pleasing, if not, the plain one will be fine, because it's what we all came to love.

THat is my 2 cents, take it for what it's worth, then again I think more work should be spent on it :P

konidias · #24 06-11-2002, 02:30 PM

Question, what happens if you have more than 35 weapons? There are only 35 spots...

Xbob42 · #25 06-11-2002, 02:44 PM

Well if there's more than 35 NPC's then they will probably have to make a second menu, which means a lot more scripting.

The normal Q menu is the best it cant be beaten its simple but also fits into the graal scene and ppl like it and find it easier to use

warp2ukew · #27 06-11-2002, 08:17 PM

I have made one I might send in later today. It is pretty simple but I like it.

Aknts · #28 06-11-2002, 08:34 PM

It fell like marry new frogs.

I think graal needs a refresher of new graphics I dont like the "old style" try to make cooler tastier stuff

They have about 20 (max) npcs?
They all seem to be under 32 x 32.

All they do is...
Open some graphics software.
Resize any images that are more than 32 x 32.
Center the image in a 32 x 32 box.
Press the save button.
Drag into RC file manager.
Wait.

Altogether it should take 15 seconds max to do each image.
Thats 4 in a minute.
Thats 5 minutes.
Then 1 minute uploading them for a total of 6 minutes.

Easy and quick.

As for the inventory screen.
Its a good idea but the graphics could be changed to look a but nicer. Also a description of each object would be nice.
7.5/10

jeff335 · #31 06-11-2002, 10:47 PM

It's cool scripting, I imagine, but in reality using the default Q menu is better if all you want is weapon selection anyway. Saves a lot of trouble.

azuretek23 · #32 06-11-2002, 10:57 PM

well some people like perty lookin stuff if it had better graphics it would be awsome and everyone would use it

Pir · #33 06-12-2002, 12:21 AM

*vomits*

least you guys could have done is mke it match the rest of the HUD

SinNetherwind · #34 06-12-2002, 12:34 AM
