i have an idea. make a sonic sprite point to each option (checkboxes, wad files, etc...) and say something, like;

*points to wad adder* Hey, pick This one!
*points to Opengl checkbox* no no no This one!
*points to alternate EXE* lets do This one!
etc etc etc....

Make speech bubbles with his words in them, and make him just warp to each thing, don't have him running inbetween them.

And when you click GO! knuckles comes over, smacks him upside the head, and says, "SHUT UP!"

I'm sorry is that a stupid idea?

So, no offense, but yeah. Plus, I'm pretty sure that'd be a pain to code anyway. >_>
 
You know when you click on the Sonic image, you'll see him say something, right? (Like: Watch where you put that mouse...) When done too much, just change the pic to a angry Sonic. Its always better as him repeating all that stuff.
 
Say, the recent version on the site isn't launching SRB2 at all when I go. It just either says "Runtime error "53" File not found" (which I corrected) or it does nothing. AT. ALL.
Here's the settings I have:
Code: 
Game:
Skin=Knuckles (Gold); Multiplayer [Host (Game Type=Cooperative; Max Players=10; Starting Map=1)].
WAD Files:
N/A.
Main Options:
Windowed Mode; Sound=MIDI Music (w/ SFX).
Network Options:
Don't Advertise Server.
 
Will this ever actually come out? I know it's shipped with SRB2 as source code, but actually a finished binary included in the main folder?

Do you know that command were it launches srb2 with the all the WADs you want to play with? How about you make it so you can start srb2 with socs running too. ^_^

Oh, and also, maek sonci sing and dance to u while u pick optoins.

You can open socs in that. Just choose any file, and select a soc.
Also, make it like a ZDL, IDL combination.

I've been doing some more Win32 programming lately, this time on the desktop, and I may have some extra time to work on a REAL official SRB2 launcher. But I was wondering... what should it look like? What options should it have?

Please no 'stupid' ideas (like "maek sonci sing and dance to u while u pick optoins"), but feel free to post screenshots of GUI mockups, etc.

I don't like those in a launcher for a kid's game. It's ridiculous that you have to watch your language on the master server while the launcher says inappropriate things to you.

Who says you have to watch your language on the master server? That's only for the server names, not the chat that goes on in the server.
