So yea, this was my saturday afternoon project. There are so many parts that can be tweaked.

This sort of interface is going to be used a few places throughout the game...


Here is the video link.....

[ best to watch fullscreen because of the compression artifacts etc. ]

">Link to YouTube video

Link to .avi download [ higher quality ]

Bleh it's really hard to see things @ youtube quality...any ideas on interesting things to add into the background, or background settings would be appreciated.

Backgrounds like the one in the video will be used for the weapons market, etc. Or maybe just for a weapons viewer so players can check out the 50+ weapons in the game.

I guess they look kinda different than the last screenshots where they were bright as hell :-o HDR fixes all of that lol.

A bit off topic I know... but have you considered using Vimeo instead of YouTube? Considerably better quality (and just generally a much better site all round...)

Also off topic, but if I stand next to you will some of your talent leech out into me? I'm seriously impressed by the quality of all of your work. Wow.

Two different backdrops come to mind while watching that sequence:

1. Rolling flames in the background, showing off all your HDR goodness
2. Rain and lightning in the background, letting the scene wash out in overexposure from the bright flashes

Keep up the good work!

i've dropped back for the the first time in a while to gd. it's good to see the progress u've made mate...however if this is not intended for the promotion of the game then ur concentrating making everything shiny instead of making the gameplay great.
i'm a gta:vc veteran so i have an idea for what will make it fun..do u still have any beta invites? :P

Thanks for the comments guys.

It took a few minutes to code that display scene up, it's used for the weapons selection screens, etc. so it's needed for the gameplay. I'm constantly changing the UI,etc to be better.

If you want to be in the BETA just click the link at the top and send me the information and I'll get up with you when it starts.
