first one little thing that I wanted to see in 2.0.5_rc2 . > may be its will sounds funny but... Every time when I creat game (MP) there need to fill some fields like game name, nick,.. I noticed that in 2.0.x ver. not like in off.ver. I need to press backspace for each letter but in off I just hold down "delete" or "backspace". I know its trifles but its begining to nervous me(as a player). ::)
ok.Topic is another. wz use like "textures" to shw the text. right ? its lettter are in image/intfac3.png & image/frend1.png. Can we just dont use that pics. Just string data. Only choose a front ? may be not everywhere use the strings to left main menu as is , but to change a chat & sys. message in game (structures names,...).
Sorry I'm not a programmer & cant value a difficulty right of this task, but as for me its sounds easy ::)

Re: Text Strings.
As we use OpenGL we need to get the text (string) somehow into GL.
Currently this is achieved via selecting a portion of a texture (representing a letter) and painting that onto the screen. Another method would be to transform every letter into a 3d mesh and display that. (Much work, needs artists.)
I don't know any method to directly load a font (TrueType or whatever) and display that in an GL window.

Re: Text Strings.
ive noticed that too... i also find in skirmish that i have to select a map each time instead of the game remembering the last played one it would be nice if that was implemented tooTerminator wrote: first one little thing that I wanted to see in 2.0.5_rc2 . > may be its will sounds funny but...
