Title: Main Menu Customization
Post by: MZslayer11 on October 03, 2014, 01:23:27 am

Just  few questions about changing the main menu!

1. How do I change the mouse pointer? (I'm assuming its just an image that i can edit)
2. How do I change the Main menu Background? (I'm also assuming its just an image that i can edit)
3. How do I change the Main Menu Music?
4. How can i change the color/design for the buttons? (Another image to edit?)

Any help is appreciated! Thanks :)

1) Mouse = 3_cursor3.iwi (should be located in localized_LANGUAGE_iw00.iwd)

2) Main Menu Background = Placed in main_text of main.menu (ui/main.menu)

		itemDef
		{
			style			WINDOW_STYLE_SHADER
			rect				FULLSCREEN_WIDE
			background		"nzr_main_menu"
			forecolor		0.6 0.6 0.6 0.7
			visible			1
			decoration
		}

background is a 2D material.

3) Music, create the soundalias then put it through ModSound, get the converted sound and place it where soundalias reference goes then in menu file replace soundLoop with the new alias.

4) Specify what you mean by buttons, if you mean when you highlight something that's handled by menu file function. (CHOICE_XXX_XXXX) in there's a group that leads to it, no idea what it's called I'll check it out.

Yeah that thing is done by background hover in the CHOICE_ function I can't seem to find the actual define of it so :/ someone probably has done it before. I don't think it's by an image but it may be since I think it 'fades' away like it has alpha.

Also you probably have to clear the background video just look for some bik play or video something then remove it (being remove the entire itemDef).

How to do it? I mean it's fairly straight forward.

I know it is. I could do it anyway but I was just asking
