Various Cover Images
- pontiac 05:59, 13 Mar 2005 (PST) Until the Upload to the wiki has been discussed you can use the Wiki-Manual section in the gallery:
- http://vegastrike.sourceforge.net/gallery/wiki_manual
- I already put some needed sdcreenshots there, but they need to be scaled/finished/cut to be used in the manual.
Base Interface/ Computer Screens Discussion
- pontiac 15:00, 14 Mar 2005 (PST) Would it be a good thing to merge the Manua:Base interface pages with the single pages such as Manual:Cargo computer and Manual:News screen. IMHO it is. What do you think?
- silverain I agree - it's what I did in the .pdf.
- Sources in the phpwiki:
- http://vegastrike.sourceforge.net/phpwiki/index.php/VsManualBaseInterface
- http://vegastrike.sourceforge.net/phpwiki/index.php/VsManualCargoComputer
- http://vegastrike.sourceforge.net/phpwiki/index.php/VsManualMissionComputer
- http://vegastrike.sourceforge.net/phpwiki/index.php/VsManualWeaponsRoom
- http://vegastrike.sourceforge.net/phpwiki/index.php/VsManualUpgradesScreen
- etc...
- silverain 03:01, 15 Mar 2005 (PST) Since the Information Screen and Game Menu screen are common between several areas (Cargo Screen, Upgrades etc all access these two screens, would it be worthwhile extracting them and showing them as 'Common Menus' at the beginning of 'Interface'? I started to do this to the manual page, but its now gone.
- pontiac 03:36, 15 Mar 2005 (PST) At first i imagined to have all the non-baseart (== Computer Screens) locations under the the "Base interface". And only the rest (bar/hangar/etc...)
- Missions
- News
- Cargo
- Info (Ship + Player)
- Upgrade
- etc...
- The 'real' locations would be listed extra
- Hangar
- Concourse
- Bar
- etc...
- pontiac 03:36, 15 Mar 2005 (PST) At first i imagined to have all the non-baseart (== Computer Screens) locations under the the "Base interface". And only the rest (bar/hangar/etc...)
- pontiac Also the info pages are aren't gone, they just moved to Manual:Base_interface:Info_screen (no content except for images right now though )
- pontiac 09:05, 15 Mar 2005 (PST) Ok, here is what i had imagined (some things be be missing). I just changed the name from "BAse interface" to "Computer" to make it more clear. Better suggestions are welcome.
- Manual:Trading
- Manual:Accepting missions
- etc...
- Manual:Locations (description of the various locations at a base/ship/planet/... and what they normaly show)
- Manual:Computer (description of the various Computer pages)
