[ssrp] recode F4 menu (current one) 2 years 2 months ago #1375123

Server Name: ssrp

Suggestion Title: don’t change the hud to the one that’s being developed

How would it benefit the server:
the server doesn’t lose its unique charm
keeping the zarp look going
this can be done by recoding an exact replicate of the current menu but better supported for the extra features, no ifs or buts, it is 100% possible to do and just requires dedication.

Potential Issues/Exploits: Literally none.

Additional notes: this may upset those who are currently developing the newer menu due to the time and effort potentially wasted but fearless, you’d have no upset players.

tbh i understand WHY they need to refactor the code. But i cant think of a single reason they cant keep the same STYLE and color scheme as the current one. Even if it means changing the way you navigate tabs or something. But it just cant be a default UI style like the new one is going too. Its not going to be a quick refactor and im sure they will be pissed off having to do it. But i can only see the current "new" design causing more harm than good.

TLDR: There is no point refactoring so u can stop current limiations if they will cause no one to want to play....

ngl i hate the new menu as much as the other guy but did you guys not read the explanation why the new menu is needed? Xnator clearly said that the old menu is plagued with coding issues & that's why the new menu is being implemented. Personally cant hate on something that actually benefits Zarp in the long run.

THIS!!!

The new menu is just super ugly and not unique, you can buy a look a like HUD on the gmod store which was clearly heavily influenced. Hell it’s even in the comments and Xnator had this up as an addon, just that he put his own touches to it but the general design is generic as fuck

100% agree, new design is insanely boring and generic, looks like every other £4.99 gmodstore menu used on every other copy and paste darkrp server, zarp is fun and unique because its all so original and custom coded, its not something you can easily recreate on your own without skill and a shit load of time - this copy and paste counterpart is a complete downgrade.
i think if it was a new theme entirely with its own charm and its own unique design maybe i wouldnt be so opposed to it, i dont mind change that much, but the fact that its such a tasteless downgrade from what we already have, i dont see the point.

Use the fp reboot one it's such a unique and zarp style design. Literally still looks like the best menu I've seen for a gmod server.

This was actually the original plan, but unfortunately the FP reboot one is also very very old code and would've needed completely recoding too, and still would've had the same issues as the current F4 menu regarding certain ZARP-specific features which have been added over the years not really being able to fit into that design properly.

i think most monkey brains think zarpf4=green so just modify the menu to look more zarpish and people will stop complaining.

it looks awful because u just slapped on green without experimenting with different colour schemes. maybe xnator u could add a theme page on the settings where the user can modify the f4 menu brackets and headers colours and background to their liking.

maybe if the frame and left panel was a bit brighter green and the central panel was like white it would look bit better (like the old f4 colour scheme)
