Hi metal_head. I make this menu in Entidad3D. But in RF is easy.
The menu is a BSP level, you can use fixed camera and the 3d objects you use StaticMesh or StaticEntityProxy entities for put is.

That's basically what I said when you asked before...

You still meet the 2D menu when you first start your game, or is there also an option to disable that? In other words, is there a way to disable the menu and immediately load a .bsp?

Sorry Sph!nx,I didn't understand it....and I still can't :D.I just don't have an idea how to do it.It sounds simple,but I still don't see how am I gonna put the menu in the BSP level using static meshes and entities.

You can't replace the menu with a menu like that. You always get the menu that consists of bitmaps when you run RF. You'd have to click 'New Game' and then load a .bsp map that is like the menu in that video. You could add a pawn that you could write a script for. A script that displays the texts and buttons on the screen. But I fail to see any use for this until we can skip the RF's menu and load a level immediately on startup.

You could make it so you can only clic on a button saying something like "Click to begin" or something like that.

Well, yeah. That's possible but what about the stuff that's in the built-in menu? Such as the gamma and volume sliders, controls, or the most important: Save and load game. :? You can't script those... yet. :wink:

I don't think a .bsp menu is worth it right now. It sure is possible but pretty limited. Maybe in the future...

Too bad,it's hard for me to edit scripts yet I can't handle something like this.OK than,maybe I'll put a giant animated GIF for a background or something.
