Wishlist for 'BETA 0.08'

Maybe we can start a "loading screen competition", where everyone here can send in their designs?
Gianluca just needs to say what resolution, number of colors and filetype should be used. For example: 800x600, 32bit colors, BMP format.

Would be cool to have some different loading screens, with some different texts like special keys, tips, ko2 history. Maybe have the texts appear randomly on the different screens?

The loadingtime in next beta will be ev even longer as it seems now..

around 30 s.

of these the match stuff is 15s and menus and such 15s.

For later betas I and gianluca will try to change fileformat from .x to .b3d which will lower the loadingtime with 10s.

I think gianluca will try to lower the loadingtime for menus too.

I have an interesting idea for loading screen but i will not tell you before the official release

About loading time i'm sorry but this beta is even worse.
I can preload things so you have one long loading time at the intro but then each game will require almost zero loading time. However we decided to postpone this preloading process in beta v0.9 because i think we have something more important to do for the next beta

no problem for the future then!
