I think if you played a demo it would switch to the in-game menu system.  It would also probably remove the menu when the demo loaded.

A demo would take longer to load. It would have to load the map (including textures, models, etc) and then open up the menu. If there was a way to play a movie file (like Bink) in the background, it would make things much easier and faster. I would also need to overlay an image so the menu is still easily readable.

Time flies when you are trying to finish something. :P Sorry. I wanted to be finished by 5:30, because I had a party to be at that started at 6:00. Guitar Hero is so addicting. And I just wanted to go to sleep when I got home (1:30 ish). Especially when I tried to turn the door handle, and found out it was locked. But the sinking feeling came when I looked on my key ring and didn't see my house key.

Anyway, back on topic. I will try to finish it by 3 today (I have work then). If it isn't done by then, it will be done on Sunday.

In my defense, these where done yesterday. I was just unable to post them when I finished. Anyway, I updated the first post.

Oh, and resizing all of my menus took the longest. I resized them in light of this:
For now, though, I wouldn't be able to include Zorch's menus in any standard releases because they don't fit the default resolution.

Enjoy!

menu_bg_silver or something is what it's missing..

and maybe when you make a package w/o a flag, you could make a package with my main menu also...

FRIGGIN CRAP!!

Ugh, I was hoping I fixed that. Sorry. For some reason it works for me, but not for everybody else.

Where is menu_bg_silver?

I cannot believe I forgot that one. Crap. Well, thats what I get for working on this at 2 am.

I'll try and figure out whats going on by 11 tonight (~40 minutes).

Not to be a pain in the neck,  but in the meantime do you mind if I re-upload an older version of your menus so that others can play in-game? The gray box is crazy annoying..

No need to upload my older menus. If this 'fix' doesn't work (I included the missing image files), just delete this file: "\paintball2\pball\scripts\ingamemenu.txt". Anyway, here is the 'fix'. I hope this works.

Just to clarify, this was created 5-28-07, not 06 right? :P
And second, to clarify also, you NEED v3.0 to install this, correct? (It's considerably smaller)

3.1 works good.  Except the bat is different and kind of unnecessary.

I held off saying it this time, at least until you had the bugs worked out, but here it is: Excellent work Zorch, as usual.

Wrong. I left out the Hi-res pics and disabled the batch file used to switch between the resolutions. I also left out a few scripts, etc. That is the 'full' pack. I hope it works.

I've been having a lot of problems with your Menus.
In my back up install of pball, i modified the files to flag2, enabling the hi-res flag.. it takes 15 seconds to load.  I'm glad you ditched it all together in v3.1

But even without that, in my regular pball directory, I've been having lots of problems.  When I hit escape it flickers the flag for a second, then does nothing.  I have no in-game menu (just a flag flicker).  Hitting the ~ console key on the main menu can not be redone, I just get a flag flicker and then it acts like it's loading.
:(
I think I'm just going to have to reinstall b18 and your old menus.

Holy crap! Never thought that would happen with just one animated image. That is very interesting.

Last night I installed a "control" version of pball. After the fresh install I installed my menus from the zip. The only thing that was wrong was the missing in-game menu background. Mmm.  Yea, I'm gonna definitely need to get the 'no-flag' version out soon.
