mdta - 3 OoT High Res Text and Menu Project

[mdtauk]

It is a little more complicated than I thought, but its not impossible...

 

[Mollymutt]

I stand corrected

 

[Federelli]

Indeed it's a whole bunch of textures, all of which i'd appreciate if someone could retexture them since i've tried and it's a mess.

TWW Pack

Well I think I am done on the style for the Opening Menus. A couple of button glows need tweaking, the text glow needs tweaking, and all the text needs doing, but what do you think...

The 4th image is just me messing around, I will be sticking with the blue look...

 

[Mollymutt]

Looks great!

TWW Pack

The opening menu graphics are done, now I have started on the HUD graphics

 

[The_Z]

MD, I'm extremely impressed at your file select pictures.

 

[mdtauk]

Is there any HUD Text which appears on more than one coloured button?

Could someone list all of the HUD Action text, in all 3 languages, and tell me what colour button they appear on...

 

[Dysprosium]

Nice job on the menu / interface buttons!

Can't wait to see more shots.

If I recall correctly, there is only one color: white.
English text: Jump, Open, Grab, Attack, Drop, Dive, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, Put Away, lift, next, Return, Check, Down, climb, Faster, reel,decide, and throw.
I may be missing a few, as I am mostly usign my memory and some friends.

 

[mdtauk]

No what I mean is. What Action Text goes on Which button, and are there any which switch buttons? If I make all the A button text Blue, will any of that text appear on the green or red buttons... etc

 

[The_Z]

Ah.. I think I understand what you meant. The text I listed goes in the Blue button.
Red button has Return
Green Button has Save and Stop

To the second part of your question, I'm not exactly sure. Sorry.
By the way, great work!

 

[mdtauk]

Well bad news, i guess, I wont be able to do coloured text. 'Return' is used by both the red and blue button, but I have decided on a style which is slightly different than OoT, still looks like wind waker, but will look nice on all buttons...

 

[[ROLO]]

Yeah man, I was about to suggest you to use black outlines to see which one looked better and now that you've changed it I'm glad cause I think it looks way better (even though you've changed it for other reasons lol)

 

[mdtauk]

The outlines are not completely black, I was never keen on that, but they are the same thickness as in TWW, and are about 55% trasnparent. It isnt "in your face" see-through but the subtleness helps to make it look better.

 

[Googol]

Excellent stuff - you're one to keep an eye on, mdtauk. You've captured the feel of Zelda in each of your interfaces; certainly, your work adds innumerably to the work of others. Keep it up!

TWW Pack

Here are some more tests, this is the Text background, the music score, and HUD imagary. Can someone send me dumps of the signpost text background, and the magic meter...

 

[Tjalian]

Haha, Very sweet!

I assume the WW Style one will be combined with Djipi's Cel Zelda pack once done

 

[mdtauk]

yep, I am working on stuff for his pack, but other WW style projects can use the files providing they ask for permission, and check with me...

 

[Googol]

Good, but I would probably stick with Djipi's text and background. The rest is excellent.
