I prefer the console as well, but I know several of my admins prefer the menu in some circumstances. Some commands are just too simple for use in a menu, and some that have several parts may be easier from the menu (like teleporting). Bottom line is, I think there just needs to be a menuing system for the SRCDS engine that works on all mods and is easily accessible. The old method seems to be popular so I think Valve should consider the massive community outcry here and figure out a way to make that happen. I just with the some of the community approached this matter better. -- - m0gely http://quake2.telestream.com/ Q2 | Q3A | Counter-strike ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux

I may be completely wrong here since I haven't used any admin mods for Source yet, but aren't all the commands in the menus available as console commands as well? I've personally never relied on the menus in AMX since they're slow and cumbersome, and the menuing system for clients in CSS was equally poor, often times getting stuck at a particular screen until I was killed. Are menus so bloody important that you need raise hell like this? Why not instead concentrate on performance improvements and better plugins? -- ironchef http://www.dexworld.org/ ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux

> Well, lets just see, this is not a gripe it's just a little list and TINAEL: Well they did have the time to block it, so apparently it has a priority for them ;) For the people who consider this discussion is filled with "whiners": We all know the saying "If it ain't broke, don't fix it". It wasn't broke, yet it was fixed to enforce a new API policy. No decent alternative (apart from the VGUI menu) has been offered yet, so people are now requesting an alternative. Doesn't sound that unreasonable to me. I remember Paul N todd in the hilarious "My Big Fat Obnoxious Boss" said something like: "Sometimes you really have to get under someone's skin to get something done." Now that's business. Stop thinking people are attacking VALVe. If they hated VALVe they wouln't be on this list on the first place. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
