Post Topic: [Download] Custom main menu
Posted 03.03.2012, 20:38
Hi guys,
since Crytek did not ship a .fla menu file, we have to build our own menus from scratch. To give you an idea on how to accomplish that, I publish my own custom menu right here. To use it, just move the .zip content to yourcryenginefolder\Game\libs\UI\. Immediately when you open the editor the menu should start. Just keep in mind, that not all the necessary functions are defined and the menu looks crappy. This is just to give you an idea of how you can make your own menu. For further information just take a look at my Explanation Video, where I explain, how all the UI stuff works:

I keep getting a blank screen. Are you sure all files are correct? Tested on a fresh SDK install.

I am pretty sure that those are all the necessary files. Does it work in the UI-Emulator?

Your menu doesn't work in the UI Emulator. And Flash is enabled with sys_flash = 1.

and one more thing: if something in the flash file is not clear (what the actionscript does where, why), just feel free to ask

since I will make a new one anyway, everyone can use this for their games - it just would be nice, to show me, what you made with my menu^^

I downloaded it yesterday and added two things:
- tooltips
- seperators (without captions, just simple free space)
i changed a few texts in the fla itself to make it more understandable fon non-germans
Download attached, credit mainly goes to Taxel except for the few changes i did
