User Interface Status

I put some content on the About menu screen that we might want to add to later...

And there is a place holder for the map.

The scope is fixed! Yay... And I added a player icon in the upper-left corner that can be Johnny5 or the alien when we get there.

We also have some artwork for the background with an apocalyptic UCSD scene that people seem to like.

We now have a menu that users can move around in and will eventually let users select various things, such as the background music, screen resolution, and player (hopefully). It's possible to change the background sound but the resolution is a work in progress. Player models won't happen until we have more than one model.

Unfortunately the scope is still broken. Attaching the Johnny5 model to new parent somehow interferes with it. This hasn't been a very high priority this week...

The HUD at the moment consists of status messages in the lower right corner (health, weapon, ammo) and a scope in the middle that I think I just broke. Although I might blame Noah...

Jarrod also added frames per second in the upper left. The status messages don't really reflect anything yet, but as soon as we keep track of these things we should be able to display them.

Now I'm working on the menu and graphics for the opening screen, though it won't be checked in before our meeting.
