SD-Userbar


(Joe999) #21

i did, but lost the spikes. maybe because it was too small. have to repaint it manually.

anyone got a tut how to make a fluorescent blue light? maybe with some animation of the halo.

OK here’s my first three attempts at making userbars, animated together to form a message:

“ouroboro: Enemy Territory player; happy little tree”

:clap:

i got the image off the splashdamage website. just copyed the image


(Joe999) #24

lol, i just wanted to create a neon-tube like userbar and had to realize that not even in 2006 this is possible with the current web-image formats. jpg is too lossy for fonts, gif has too few colors and only 1 transparency level and png, the obvious format which should be used, has good compression, full color support and 256 transparency levels, but it doesn’t support animation. and i refuse to use flash. would be about time to introduce a new image format 4 ze veb.

You can choose the compression rate of JPG’s.
But I think JPG’s aren’t animatable.

Well, there are some guys working on APNG, but I haven’t found an application to make them.

And the transparency is not shown on Internet Explorer.

You can fix this with a script easily, or alternatively dont use that *$%&ing pile of £$it that is Internet Explorer (wait for the new version)!!!


(Ragnar_40k) #29

And how many use IE and use such a script? Or even know about it? They will just see your pic with an ugly gray border (when you’re lucky, can also be pink) and will blame you for it.

i had too much time, so here it is:

my english is getting rusty is it “from” or “of”?


(digibob) #31

“from”, though “by” would possibly be better, “of” would only work if you had written “the games”, but that wouldn’t sound very good anyway.


(Joe999) #32

thanks. here it is if someone wants to use it on the EA forum or wherever :smiley:


(kamikazee) #33

Ah, finally a proper ocasion to use a rarely used smiley:

Hell yeah! :rocker:

PS: It’s even true for me, haven’t played any games except W:ET for a long time.


(ouroboro) #34

It doesn’t qualify as a proper userbar (350x19), but I realize that adhering to the userbar criteria would be difficult with the transparent external bits. I love the sentiment though!

On that note, does anyone play Q3F? There are no public servers showing in ASE, but perhaps there are in the in-game browser? (Such a problem is known to exist with Q4.) I’ve been meaning to download it again; it might be a fun way to satisfy those SD cravings while waiting for ET:QW. :wink:

http://www.q3f.com/ - Requires Q3:A


(Wils) #35

Nobody plays Q3F any more - the mod was ported to ET as ETF, and what was left of the community moved over with it.

There’s some rumblings of continued support in the forum.

I got a little bored this evening:


(nUllSkillZ) #37

Hmm, is there already something like an ET:QW userbar?


(madness) #38

can’t use QW…so… :frowning:


(kamikazee) #39

Some people did create one, though it could have been a userbar cycling that member’s favourite games.
