Can executables be run, or triggered, in-game? If so, I could just add a "check for updates" button that starts up an auto updater.

i say maps to make koth and pong more popular, theres only a few maps i know of that ive played pong on, anthills (somewhat repetitive in design though) and soccer1 i think (flat land..... who would want to play pong on that? D:) and a few others i dont remember, ones called bigarena i think

No and yes. No by conventional means, and yes for anti-cheat measures (won't discuss so don't ask). There is a way to launch a web browser with a specified link, but I thought this was already being used for update (you have an old version, click here to update...) purposes. The problem with an auto-update system is who is going to front the cost for bandwidth? We're pretty lucky to have a sourceforge workspace, after the B19 release SF alone served up 1TB worth of 20MB downloads.

I'm waiting on the next CTP release before I start on the KOTH map.

Lol is the urban pack released yet though I could maybe start it up as a city one.

Indeed been waiting for ages for that also you need to have it put KOTHs in KOTH section CTFs in CTF section etc.

Heh, the second part is gonna take a long while.

You could have something like this so it does it automatically....

Code: [Select]

if gamemode==64 add pongI know that wouldn't work but been a while since I've done anything like that or anything period in C I just made it basic so its easy to understand and (yes I probably did alot of stuff wrong).

That would be awesome if it worked like that. But alas, the menu's scripting language is primitive at best.

Apocalypse · « **Reply #36 on:** November 27, 2007, 04:08:09 PM »

Is there anyway to translate that from C to menu or make it so you can put it in C and the menu understands it I've heard of things that can do this from language to language for other things. Also what language is the menu just its own?

Zorchenhimer · « **Reply #37 on:** November 27, 2007, 05:46:39 PM »

The menu system has it's own scripting language. If you want me to be able to make menus with that kind of stuff in it, vote for it.

Apocalypse · « **Reply #38 on:** November 28, 2007, 03:15:36 PM »

I did vote for new menu format also you never answered is there anything like this.........

Does this menu need 2d graphics, or is it possible to implement 2d graphics? because I could try and produce some if you like
