[WIP] More quick options, Updated with CTF

turk645 · Post by **turk645** » Tue Jul 04, 2006 5:28 pm

This is a mod im working on for the main menu, it adds more quick options so you can easily make changes to a gametype instead of having to have 3 different versions of the same thing. It's also designed to prevent having to leave a big party of people to make a new gametype.
So far it only has more slayer and CTF quick options.
small glitch is that the bottom option gets cut off but is still selectable.
Also any input on what else besides the quickoptions to add will be used in future updates. And if I'm missing any options in the options that you think i should add, just say so.
This patch can go over your currect menu and wont mess with anything up, just remember to resign the map.

Here is a pic to give people an idea of what the options are after you scroll down.

Now updated with CTF, only about a hundred chunks away from the rest of the menus.

i added all the other vehicle option, including the secondary heavy vehicle. i added the teamplay option along with friendly fire. Added respawn time and made it have an instant respawn option. plus some stuff from the options that u choose when making the game type like the damage resistance, shield type ect.

How are you going to play with people with a modded main menu I mean you cant go on xbox live with a modded main menu since you need to load the halo 2 cd to play on live...
Well its seems like a cool mod I do kind need this so I dont have to go the main menu to make a custom game good job.

yeah this was made for xbc and kai since a lot of the mods now can only be played on those.

Kai
Similar to XBC in its use, but its more convenient. Lots of people use it. The Xbox client is included with XMBC, all you have to do is D/L the engine, register, and configure it.
Quite handy honesty, but back on topic... These extra options will save me loads of time when I
