I'm working on a game menu that will start your game run a video before it starts have buttons you can change to what you would like.
A background you can change .
I need to know what would be a good size for the menu window?
What kind of buttons you would like to use( pick some out and show me and then we will pick one) .
Has a html page built in to the window with a index page that you can change to anything you like with flash , etc.
Let me know what you think?
No packing of the exe file and this will just run the game level exe files and anything else you would like added to the menu with buttons.
But I need to know this before you get it so I can compile everything in to the program.

Game Menu is done. You can download it here.
There is a help Doc so read that on how to use and change everything that can be changed.
I forgot to change the background image so just open the image folder and you will see a 630A06967.jpg file. just over right that with your background.( same name)!!
You can use this for any game program you wish.

Wow.

Good idea. I like the fact that it can have flash animations on it to. That would come in handy.

Is it basicly just a webpage?

Neat idea, Keep the good work up!

No not a web page. there is a web page embedded in the window that you can change to hold anything html.

Well done! will def use this with my games =D...only problem I found was that as it uses .avi files you need the Divx codec...there might be another way to do it but saying you were to take your game round your mates house and have to install the codec on their pc they may not be to happy =D....so .wmv is my preffered file type as eevryone uses windows and its always guarenteed to play .wmv =D just my thoughts ^^ well done anyway, thanks alot =D

Well it has the Divx codec as thats what I used but when you replace the avi if you don't use Divx but some other thats what you would need. it only uses what you used to compress the video..
I had ask for feed back on that and no one said anything.
So went with avi.

A few have ask for background music in the game menu so now it plays a ogg file that you can over right with yours and it will loop it till the users toggle's it off and they can turn it back on with a toggle button.
The background music is in the Audio folder.
Grab it here.
