[Bertyball]

Is it possible to add somekind of main menu instead of the direct play thingy?
sow, when you start assault cube, the menu popsup instead of loading a map (:

learn c++ , then it is possible :P

[Bullpup]

text edit the autoexec.cfg
add the line:
showmenu main

or:
showmenu multiplayer

the map will still be loaded, but now you dont need to reach for that pesky Esc key!!!!
Boy you are lazy OP
so am I

[Bertyball]

:D hhe thank you
it's not that i'm so lazy (a)
it has to be user friendly :D people who have never played a game or whatever starts in direct action XD it's not for me, i just want to experiment (:

i'll make a mainmenu.cfg and add showmenu to autoexec (:

is it possible to set the main menu fullscreen? or that the game pauzes meanwhile?

text edit the autoexec.cfg
add the line:
showmenu main

you dont need to make a new cfg :)

the game starts you on an empty map, there is nothing to pause :)
I dont believe you can make the menu full screen but perhaps there is a %var i am missing.

[Bertyball]

Thanks again :D

it works, and perhaps any idea how you can replace the empty map by a map of your own?
Or eventually don't open a map? just the menu

Not possible to not load a map, but you can just make a really small map and set AC to load the map on startup with the --loadmap=maphere switch.

Yea, i was thinking the same, with some costum textures, sow it looks like a commercial room or whatever :D Ty
