Samples - WIP - GUI For AOC - Opinions - Comments

Postby Sulla » Mon Dec 21, 2015 11:00 pm
Hi Guys

We are busy on many aspects of the game, tying strat / battle maps, production, vehicles, animations and a ton more.

We have several WIP GUIs that I would like opinions on. Please bear in mind these are not final, these are WIP to find a slick, intuitive, easy to use GUI. I feel this is critical to AOC and would like some honest opinions on these.

Please feel free to mix and match, cut the up in your fave program etc. Or you may like one as is. If you are of the opinion that we should know and therefore should not ask for opinions, you are in the wrong place! AOC is designed to be moddable, with as many things as options as possible.

While in certain areas, I feel community input is very valuable so we are asking for it

Use the link above to view the samples, there are 9 or so very different in several aspects.

Hi Werf,

We are trying really hard to make the UI as unobtrusive as possible and to have as much info shown and easily accessible all the time.

Its critical we get this right. We went through literally dozens of games but found very few really good UIs. That's why we have put it out to the community, if they have the chance to have a say in what the think will work well.

Even cutting and pasting bits together from the samples A thru H we posted.

Its like the game itself, the more info we get, the more community input we get the better. Its pointless the community moaning and bitching about not having any info on a game or not enough, but then also bitching and ignoring things when they are asked for advice. Nembo, Luer, GW_Tim are all working on the game. You show nothing, you are wrong, you show bits you are wrong, you show items and ask for opinions, you are apparently asking the community to build your game! If asking the community is wrong, then the community has changed an awful lot since I started CSO in 97, way before there were anything but small clan sites.

Glad you like them mate, any ideas, comments you have are very welcome!

Cheers - Shaun
