Quick Tutorial on CodMenus

[Nekoneko]

Hello.
Is there any tutorial out there on making menus?
Or can anyone give a quick tutorial.
I was going to make a menu, but the beginning and all the commands/funcitons seem hard to understand
Help is appreciated ^^

My advice is to look at stock menus.

So, if you want to make an ingame menu that will popup, look at the quickmessages, else if you want a full screen menu, check the options and similar.

There are a lot of things regarding menus, that I have never seen covered. I have not got time to cover even the basics of a menu, but if you want specific help, then ask a specific question.

Also, might be worth checking modsonline.com but I dont remeber anything ever being posted.

Here is a nice guide to making a custom quickmessage menu on Black Ops. I'm guessing CoD4 will be similar, can't guarantee it though.

Very very nice, just what I was looking for.
Most should be doable in Cod4.
Tyvm ^^

I have never thought about it before, but I have used the cj menu for scripts.
So you can give any response you like to a menu?

/openscriptmenu portal banana
and if i have my menu portal, without regarding its content, it should still notify( "menuresponse" , "portal", "banana" ); right?
If so, what's the minimum i need to stick in a menufile.

Only this?

Code: Select all

{
	menuDef
	{
		name            portal
        }
}

Not sure, but this is the CJ menu

Code: Select all

#include "ui/menudef.h"
{
   menuDef 
   {
      name "cj"
      rect 0 0 1 1
      visible 0
      fullscreen 0
 
      onOpen
      {
         close cj;
      }
   }
}
