Experimental Non Flash Menu Mod

reh

It's the single, most useful mod in ns2 so far. :) Thanks a lot.

Would it be possible to add a possibility to bind two keys to one action? I like having jump bound to different keys, depending on what class I play.

This is planned in the very near future I think will probably have to switch saving keybinds using to my own config system to support it

So is anybody else still getting the bug where ammo HUD isn't shown on weapons?

How to get older versions of menumod?
where can i download it?

Wilson

My old autoexec with "ListView.SelectedItemColor = Color(0.8666, 0.3843, 0, 1)" no longer works. Is there a new way to change the colour of the server browser highlight?

supsu

With the newest patch(209) I keep having a bug where I can't join the server at all anymore: Whenever I try to double click from server browser nothing happens and when I type "connect <address>" to the console this error pops up <a href="http://mouhez.net/paska/2012-05-31_00003.jpg" target="_blank">http://mouhez.net/paska/2012-05-31_00003.jpg</a>

I'm not sure at all why do I keep getting this bug because no-one else seems to get it and I have tried everything, even downloading menumod folders from my teammates that has it working and replacing mine with theirs but i just keep getting it.

Thanks.

Can you post your error log or at least a screenshot of the error in the console.

I leave all the old versions up <a href="http://www.fsfod.vivaciti.net/files/" target="_blank">here</a> 031a is the previous version

ServerBrowserPage.ControlSetup.ServerList.SelectedItemColor also look at ServerBrowserPage.lua:259 to see what else you can easily tweak now with the table driven creation system

Steam failed to update your game properly because your ServerBrowser.lua is from build 208 and not the updated 209 version
You need to verify integrity of ns2 right click on ns2 in steam and click properties and then click the local tab and then verify integrity of game cache which.

Also you should update to the new version I just released

Ryne

Found a bug. If you:

1) open a player list for a server
2) scroll to the bottom of the player list
3) hit refresh

It will move the view to the top of the player list, but the scroll indicator stays at the bottom

thx for the old version , please edit your first post and put the link there.

To the error.
I dont get it now, because my PingLimit has now a value.
After the update my settings reseted, and pingfilter value was "nul" or "null", (nothing)
If its "nothing" then you get lots of errors, and no servers

So you can fix it, with forcing to "All" as standart
If nul then All, I think you understand what I mean

Client.GetServerBotCount doesn't exist (anymore?), but you're still using it, and with a server reporting bots through the A2S_INFO-reply it breaks the server-browser completely.

I don't think it ever existed but I should of been setting Client.GetServerBotCount in my ServerQueryHelper module but wasn't.
I was never able to test it before because the server never bothered and still doesn't to fill the botcount field. I'm guessing that you are now filling it in with overmind.

fsfod

0.33 Update 5/06/2012
<ul>Fixed the listen server getting stuck when starting up because the engines new map auto download code fails to handle .level in map name
Fixed bot count handling in the server browser
Change MouseStateTracker to play nice with its evil twin so the games own mouse events work correctly for its own ui
Changed the keybind mod to always pass through mouse click events when the mouse is visible
Fixed the mouse cursor not being visible when in overhead spectator mode
Fixed the scrollbar of list controls not reseting when a new datalist was set also made the the player list of the ServerInfo window not reset its current scroll position when refreshing
Fixed some of the game ui being on top of the menu</li></ul>

Stoop

What would be REALLY cool, is to have the ability to join a server when a spot opened up.

Possible?

Jekt

Has been possible with this mod for a long time.
Right click on the server and click on auto retry.

You should retry extracting the mod if that doesn't work make sure you have the <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=8328" target="_blank">Visual C++ 2010 runtime</a> installed

Yeah just noticed.. sorry for trouble mate and thanks for the great mod anyway ;)
<i>You will also need to install Visual C++ 2010 runtime which the ServerQueryHelper and UIHelper lua dll modules need to run</i>

Are you working on a 210 version? I get alot of CTDs with menumod in B210, cant really reproduce since they happen at random times (at least thats what it looks like for me)
Without menumod its running fine.

fsfod

Are they happening before you connect to a server or while your playing.

While playing, but (at least for me) at random times. Like when i´m spawning, while running, while attacking. Different times too like 2 minutes after starting sometimes it takes 8 minutes.

I'm getting the same issue, but I haven't bothered to check if its due to menumod or ns2. They happen somewhat randomly while playing and since they don't occur often enough (only once every 1-2 games), its hard to say what's inducing them.

XeiZ

fsfod: the game we where both in just now crashed for me, had menumod running. think it was when the hive died no idea if it has something to do with it tho.

fsfod

You could try disabling the sub mods ServerQueryHelper and UIHelper to see if it makes any difference

XeiZ

Finally got to try it : Still crashed, gave me some runtime error (only does this sometimes)

edit: ryne gave me this idea but maybe it has something to do with the new twitter feed ? No clue about this modding stuff tho...

fsfod

You could post your ns2 log file after you crash again and I might be able to find the cause. Its path is %appdata%\Natural Selection 2\log.txt just paste the path into explorers address bar and hit enter to open it

The twitter ticker doesn't get created with my menu.

XeiZ

Trying to use pastebin.com but my browser crashes everytime i paste it in....maybe its too long <-<

edit: over 800k rows wtf.... just for like 10 minutes
edit2: <a href="http://pastebin.com/FaTnvtun" target="_blank">http://pastebin.com/FaTnvtun</a> the last "few" things it logged

fsfod

ouch if its getting spammed that much that client might be creating some resource and erroring in a way that's stopping it from freeing it later and causing the game to run out of memory maybe you could just zip the log and post it on some free file host post a link here. also just a hunch do you somehow still have my sub mod coloredbuildghosts installed or enabled by chance

XeiZ

nope removed it long ago, running out of memory as in my memory is full? If thats what you mean, no. I monitor my memory/cpu/gpu on 2nd monitor and still have >3gb free memory.
If i get the chance i´ll ask beep to post his log because he cant use menumod either in 210.

Is there a way to open older logs or save them automatically? Seems like its removing the logs once you start a new game.
