  1. Works fine for me. But I liked the pixel version! :) I've always been a fan of pixelart, heh.

    As for the animation, looks fine to me.

     

    And for all you people who can't watch it, just download ffdshow or something. It includes all the divx and xvid codecs. Never had a problem with it.

     

    (Oh, and it doesn't work in Windows Media Player for me. But I use Media Player Classic for video playback, and it works fine there.)

  2. I like the gold one best too. I kinda like the "welcome home" tagline as well. But I don't know anything about Silent Hill so it might be totally inappropriate. :)

     

    This was a fun contest, I wish I could participate! I made one anyway, just for the hell of it. Turned out more like some bizarre modern piece of art ala Stanley Donwood than a movie poster though :)

    artsy

    and a variation

     

    After looking through the photos, I think they should go with this one myself. Not so much horror but it's got a great deserted/spooky feel.

  3. I have had no problems whatsoever with any games with my LCD. Everything runs perfectly smooth. It's also a lot easier on the eyes (as in no eyestrain), and it fits on my desk. :) Honestly I would never go back to a CRT again, even if they have slightly better image quality.

  4. The current ones are crap, but honestly I don't think these ones are that much of an improvement. (Even if there should definately be some rustling like you added). I know you just said they where made to ease the annoyance :) but I'm not gonna bother commiting them to CVS. If people wanna use them just download/replace ok?

  5. I have no problem with it visually. Only logically :) Nah, it's not a big deal. It might add some programming work to have more lists, and it will probably be trickier to make the gui if the lists are supposed to size-adjust based on how many items are in them etc. But other than that there's no real problem with having the lists separate. Only a matter of personal preferences.

  6. @Pak: I don't necessarily agree with being able to sell defaulted items, in general. I'd prefer not to make it a marketplace where you try to acquire as many items through a mission in order to sell them for money.

    That's why you should only be able to sell them for very little money. I'm not saying this is a great idea, but I'm not sure if it is actually nessecary to have both a "purchased items" and "starging gear" list. It's more logical to me to have a "inventory" and a "for sale" list. And the selling starting equipment for 1 piece of gold is just a way to eliminate the need of programming an extra button.

  7. Yeah I suppose. Then we'll need a list of all the items in the game I guess. (I realise some aren't even designed yet, like the arrows)

     

    Napalm, where are you hiding? Can you confirm that all the ideas we're having here can be done? (Scaling text, scroll arrows etc)

  8. Well, we could certainly scale the font smaller. I'd planned to do that regardless. I think if there are more purchasable items than can fit on the page, we could just add two small arrows that move the list up and down. Like a scroll-bar, basically, but it wouldn't look like one.

    Oh, if we can do that I suppose it's no big problem. Scaling the text would be preferable, since a "scroll-bar" would be, as I think I said before, a little out of place. (But I have no problem doing them if the scaling turns out to either not work, or looks like crap)

     

    If it's possible to flip a page then we could do that, but just leave the left side the same.

    And what if you purchase all the items? :) Then the list on the left page would be too large. Plus leaving one page the same when you flip is.. wrong.. :D But, if we can do the scaling/scrollbar thing, this is unimportant.

     

    About the 3D-model, again it would be unwise to include painted pictures (even if it would look better) since FM authors would have to create pictures in the same style if they add their own objects. But if this was (is?) not an issue, I'd personally go with only painted pictures.
