Project Reality Forums

Dont let this die, any updates? still workin on it?

This is not dead, just had to push it to the side due to a huge professional project. I will try to do more with this in my spare time but it may remain more of a concept as I just don't have time right now to learn the BF2 menu system.

I have been having a lot of fun with these designs and have even thought about doing a whole "rebrand" concept for PR from these menus and logo to website, HUD and even the manual. But it is just going to be a little slow for a bit.

In the meantime, feel free to put up your ideas on concepts if you have any. Write up what you like dislike about Project Reality's (or any other game's) menu. Tell me about any game menu that you just love. Lets take this thread and make it something more. If you all would like.

Though, Red, I did take some of your logo suggestion and actually made one small change to the 'R'


I played with a lot of things but that really does make it feel much more "solid", so thanks!

Must... not... die!

Ideally you could get someone who has knowledge of the UI and pass it onto them. This would really give PR a more professional look, similar to the awesome Assassins Creed II UI.

i think this is awesome mate. id love to see this in the release

Holy necro batman. But this really must be done as this guy did it. Sleek and modern, resembles the core of PR.

Ive read it all (3 pages in i realised it is 2 years old ) and it looks really awesome. Shame he dropped it, most probably.

However, there is a hope. AncientMan has something in making for 1.0. Seems like not only a new design, but a whole lot of functionality, like integrating mumble or better adjustability to different screen resolutions...

What would be nice would be in-game videos popping up across the menu at the locations they were shot at, showing the action there.

EG A background video pop-up pointing to a location on the minimap image, showing, foresay, a gunfight happening there.

I very much liked the PR logo screen as well

it just needs some tweaking font perhaps
the red really stands out makes the mod look like a full blown game

but it looks very BF3ish( in a good way) if you know what I mean


good luck

edit

oh wow didn't realize this was 2 year old

maybe someone should contact the guy

i have already, but i had no reply so far

its incredible how simple design can change things quite dramaticaly, im glad Rivers remembered this thread and made me look at this, it sad that probably it nots going to make it

AncientMan's doing a new menu anyways.

cant wait to see it once its done

Wow, I thought this was lost and forgotten. Thanks for the interest!

Haven't really progressed beyond what is seen here, but I could easily pick up where I left off.

I've written you back Rivers, hopefully we can figure something out.



Oh and for anyone interested, here is a 1920x1200 wallpaper I had done with my version of the logo.

its great to hear you are still active,
i love that background, could you possibly do one without the lens flare, they are the only thing slightly bugging me
i think you should try to get your work into 1.0

Saw the post, saw the date, saw the stuff he had done, sadface. Then he replied, successful necro is successful
Nice work

Thanks! Here is a version without that flare

As for getting it in game, I'm seeing what we can do.

You should contact AncientMan.
He started working on a new UI for v1.0. -> Flowcharts are fun! - Project Reality Forums
Maybe some of your assets could be for use or you could help him out with the current work.

My new wallpaper!

dead.pixel wrote:Hey All,

So I am learning how to create a user interface for BF2 and I thought I would practice by making what I think PR's UI should look like. Now I am very very new at modding BF2 and have no real idea of the limitations of the UI. But if all goes to plan I hope to have a nice high-resolution UI that hopefully kicks ***!

I may be overly ambitious and fail many times but this is something I have always wanted to get into, game UI design.

I have built out some concepts for multiple screens to get a good foundation if you want to see:

So far it is just a few hours of work. I want to sit on it for a while and see if there are any glaring problems I missed. Please give any feedback or suggestions!

Superbly done, sir! This should have been added for PR v1.0!
