Maybe for the health and the blue thing (ammo? or is it jetpack?) you could have it on the sides of the crossshair like on HL2:

{[+]}

like that

I hear you, I hear you,
Just wait until it's actually done before you jump on it.

[edit]

that's an interesting idea..... I'll take it under consideration.

Parsing the Cemetech server list is now operational. Still needs a little work to actually use the info....but we're getting there.

[edit]
Integrated this patch for a script-side performance boost

[edit]

sub-tasks to accomplish:

Fallbacks for login/sax stuff, and the ability to shut off SAX/Cemetech integration (particularly for LAN situations).

GUI for managing Game Modes, and script support for having multiple activated game modes on a server.

Civilian/Builder flag for deathmatch situations.

Hope this goes well. I would have loved to contribute my time to this earlier in the year but I couldn't care much less for the project anymore to be completely honest.

I hope to see some progress on this. Maybe even see a working beta sometime?

Hey guys, not huge amounts of progress this week/weekend as it was parents weekend, and I had a frisbee tournament for a large portion of the day, but I'm digging through the engine code to figure out how to make a good 3D player customization GUI widget for the options menu. I'm also planning on adding in GuiObjectView's for use with the inventory.

What do you mean, Xeno? We would have to give you access to the SVN for you to play. We haven't released anything yet.

GUIObjectView has been compiled in. This will let us finish up the inventory stuff. A more in depth solution will be needed for the player preview, but this is a good start. Using XCode + gdb to track down a particularly insidious bug with Torquescript-variable memory management.

[edit]

If any of you C++ gurus have ideas/investigative routes about the discussion here:
http://www.garagegames.com/community/resources/view/18045/2#comment_form

let me know. I'm happy to provide more code + debugging info.

mmm, so, I cheated a little, but here's a preview of the first generation of the inventory system.

Slightly improved, now I need to handle some text loading and weapon previews. And then modify it to skin things properly.
