Scaramanga Posted March 31, 2003 Share Posted March 31, 2003 Just sharing my thoughts: Link to comment
FLiP Posted March 31, 2003 Share Posted March 31, 2003 those suggestions are good imo, only thing that bugs me a bit is the ugly picture thats used as the background for the container, leave it to default gray it looks more profressional. Link to comment
MTA Team Blokker_1999 Posted March 31, 2003 MTA Team Share Posted March 31, 2003 i've always hated default gray. besides ot would be white @ my pc Link to comment
FLiP Posted March 31, 2003 Share Posted March 31, 2003 or atleast a solid color of some sort, it doesnt look very good with a picture as a background tho. Link to comment
CroxyBoy Posted March 31, 2003 Share Posted March 31, 2003 The background image is fine, what i want to know is where do you set your name ?? Is it on another screen ?? I'm asuming your able to Link to comment
Mr.Bill Posted March 31, 2003 Share Posted March 31, 2003 irc man just use/name somethingoriginalhere and BOOM its there so im guessing !kick works too? Link to comment
Gtatari Posted April 1, 2003 Share Posted April 1, 2003 This is how i would view the ultimate user friendly gooey er i mean GUI.: Note: the same game setup thing would be done for CTW as well as any other game modes Also: cool BG pics could be added to add the MTA-ish-ness effect of .02 and .03 Link to comment
CroxyBoy Posted April 1, 2003 Share Posted April 1, 2003 I like the layout but its not as colourful, if you used the origonal background image it would be better. I'l make my own and show you. Link to comment
CroxyBoy Posted April 1, 2003 Share Posted April 1, 2003 Here's my proposed GUI(guey) . My main critism of the current gui is there are to many, buttons/controls on one form it looks overly complicated. The first rule of a good gui is simplistity. Let me talk you through it GTA3:MTA Window :- - Join Game by IP : Shows the IP entry dialog - Join Game with ASE : Launches All seeing Eye - Host Game : Hosts a game and shows the Game dialog - Player Setup : Takes you to a player setup dialog (set name, model gta3 path etc.) Game window, shown as "Hosting game "Croyx' l33t game" mode=Deathmatch" - Players : Lists the players in the game, user can select and kick users by using the kick user button - Server Options : Set all your various game options here - Settings : Shos the player setup dialog, alows user to change there name - Launch Game : Runs GTA3 - Change team : Switchs RED/BLUE or Cops/Criminal, team is indicated by the color of the Players name in the player list. - Chat : Allows users to chat When you join a game the server options will be Grey out as only the host can change them. Hope this was useful ... Link to comment
trx Posted April 1, 2003 Share Posted April 1, 2003 I like the layout on those pics GTAtari, nice work. I agree it would look better like that. But it's all about functionality for now, maybe they should have a look at those pics for future versions, though. Link to comment
Slothman Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 make it all screen-based. we don't need no stinking GUI Link to comment
trx Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 make it all screen-based. we don't need no stinking GUI Go explain that to Rockstar Link to comment
Iggy Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 what is this all "cant edit the gta3.exe" or whatever, is it illegal or something, if so, why? Link to comment
Gtatari Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 Thanks trx CroxyBoy: so are you suggesting a sort-of wizard? Iggy: Editing the original GTA3 exe is illeagle.. techinically the GTA3 exe is proterty of R* and its copyrighted. you can however edit the RAM that gta3 runs in.. thats how it moves the other players in the MOD.. if that was also illeagle, there'd be no MTA Link to comment
Mr.Bill Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 personally.. I like that blokker said.. and his response.. rofl.. oh claissc, smooth.. 39 points for you Link to comment
Iggy Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 why dont u just ask rockstar, i dont see why its not worth a try? also i dont think the'de care Link to comment
xerox Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 [spam] hehe.. thats 49 points total for me. [/spam] [delete]Im officially resetting your points to 0 for spamming =P[/delete] this isnt a race, wait and find out your rankings Link to comment
CroxyBoy Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 CroxyBoy: so are you suggesting a sort-of wizard? Not really a wizard, but breaking it down into several screens would make it more user friendly. Link to comment
-=WeSsW@Re=- Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 Now you may not edit it, but you can make a patch to patch the gta3.exe file. THe only problem is that u can't edit an exe fine without having the sourcecode, so it would be impossible to code. btw I don't see the problem of an external program. You should have a launch game button though Link to comment
