    Nice idea, but I don't know if the SDK allows overriding of the main menu layout. Perhaps we should have a look at the Vampire : The Masquerade : Bloodlines Revival code, because I remember them having a custom main menu

    ya it must, nuclear dawn has a competely redone main screen and i've seen others with it moved around.

    glad you guys like it, hope we can do it, it means noobs that watch the empires startup video (wow i forgot we had one) will transition nice and smooth into main menu. :)

    Well, Nuclear Dawn had full SDK access, which we don't. It's better to find other mods that redid it instead.

    NS2 is an entirely different engine, Alien Swarm a different SDK.

    There's loads of other mods out there. PVK II for example. Just make sure they use the SDK Base 2007 and you're away.

    I suggested that the commander texts which appear in green be removed/made toggleable.

    Why would you not want your teammates to hear your taunt? that's a fun part of empires is hearing a slew of taunts come out when youre all close together... or just when you see a teammate do something funny and you go "hahaha" (the BE taunt ofc) or .... a million other cases when teammates taunts make me smile...

    I completely don't understand your reasoning bitchslap.

    SURVEY QUESTION: does anyone else who commands find that frequently a building you select will not attach to your mouse?

    so

    click menu - ml turret
    back to map - no turret on mouse
    click menu - ml turret
    back to map - no turret on mouse
    -etc
    -etc
    -etc
    -etc
    -etc

    sometimes happening half a dozen times before it registers you've selected it?

    compound this with even trying to place 3 or 4 turrets and it gets really old...

    but hard to say if it's a bug if it's only me.

    eventually I will just hold the mouse VERRRY still when selecting my building and that usually registers. any ideas?

    Never had that happened to me, you sure you click the turret? ;)
    Perhaps you have a bad mouse?

    I find it hilarious, because the taunts are hilarious.

    Besides, the idea is that your character is saying it aloud. It makes more sense for everyone nearby to hear it than not.

    ....yea that... plus how are you gonna know when it lines up perfectly?

    some scout jeeps to your base gets killed instantly followed up by "you came all this way to die like that?"

    why you wanna miss out on that lol
