Make the lobby menu background semi-transparent

[late wing]

Exactly what the title says

Make the lobby menu background semi-transparent

[lofty tiger]

i mean why not

[late wing]

it looks neat . . .

also i will delete messages saying "make it a toggle"

[lofty tiger]

god dammit

[stray rune]

i like this idea

[tender dagger]

[short saffron]

I’m down

@late wing make a 1.8 pull request 👀

ez contrib

[late wing]

I don't know how they work yet 😭

like how do i make a pull req for just one file change hh

[subtle bone]

I approve

It looks nicer

[late wing]

ok i'll figure this out ipod

watch me

wait nvm!!!!

i was just gonna make another fork

[subtle bone]

tho i wish the Game Settings text had a shadow but that's a minor thing

[late wing]

HAHA

[short saffron]

You have to checkout to 1.8

oh you could also do that

[late wing]

i can't

you can't make more than one

[short saffron]

then commit what u have rn then checkout to nightly

git pull from mine, make the change, push, make pr

[late wing]

okok

[short saffron]

idk how to pull from my remote with desktop tho

[late wing]

I accidentally overwrote my fork's folder

rip whatever changes i had the last few days

thank god i didnt lose anything major

[short saffron]

you didn’t commit ..?

[late wing]

nope bc i only had small things

[short saffron]

first thing I said

[late wing]

i was already doing it when you said that so i didn't see it HAHA

i just lost minor edits in levels + text changes

Got everything restored in a bit then I'll try making a pull req after I'm done downloading that Unity ver, that's apparently required

[night nebula]

i do really wish it was a toggle

i personally like the regular background than the semi transparent one

[late wing]

https://github.com/ipodtouch0218/NSMB-MarioVsLuigi/pull/154 @short saffron does this work

[brave hill]

We can see the details from behind I feel like it might get implemented

wait ipodtouch talked here?

Nice.

[late wing]

he asked me to make a pull req

which i did

so if i didnt fuck up anything

then it should be added (?)

[brave hill]

hell yes

Are you gonna get contributor role?

[late wing]

W.

accepted i guess?

[short saffron]

actually

@late wing thoughts on a blur instead?

[late wing]

imo the blur is a bit excessive

I think it was fine to have the simple repeated texture transparent like I did originally

Blur just makes it hard to focus for me, idk

[short saffron]

could do both

[short saffron]

for me its hard to focus on the menu because it ISNT blurred

cuz so much detail in the level behind it on top of text

[late wing]

This one looks good

[late wing]

Slightly more opaque also works

[short saffron]

with without the blur

see what i mean

[late wing]

Looking good

[short saffron]

this area for example

[late wing]

I think without blur is fine too, but I can see the argument that others could have trouble reading it

Blur is definitely the way to go

[short saffron]

yeah it can just be visually cluttered

[late wing]

could be hard for dyslexic people 😔

Can't wait for 1.8 🙏

[short saffron]

hm..

very tough

[late wing]

is that uhh

1. less transparent
2. more transparent
3. more transparent but blurrier

?

[short saffron]

brightness

[hexed parcel]

i think the one in the actual game lobby menu is looking great but uh this hurty eyes

[short saffron]

actual game lobby menu?

[hexed parcel]

this looks good (yk the actual game lobby memu)

[hexed parcel]

this hurts eyes

[short saffron]

...the one with no blur?

you think the top is better for readability? lol

[hexed parcel]

yes

im not even kidding

[short saffron]

u crazy

[hexed parcel]

tho ipod i am legally blind so take my crazy thoughts with a grain of they stupid

but that does look better to me dunno why

[short saffron]

readability of the text

not of the background

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1057317362291974144/1057425723977105500/image.png

i cant see how the one with more intersecting lines is more readable tbh

[hexed parcel]

oh stupid alert!💀 if we are talking text i see literally no difference really

its all readable to me regardless

[short saffron]

...yes lmao

the blur of the background is on purpose

[hexed parcel]

i guess i am nuts i have zero idea why also

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[late wing]

without blur there's a lot going on

the blur just shifts the focus back to the text

[stray rune]

isnt blur heavy on gpu or something

[hexed parcel]

i think but i kinda love how that one looks LOL

[short saffron]

it’s in a main menu bruv

[stray rune]

[brave hill]

I thought the transparency would be only for the lobby menu and not for the main menu

Also is it gonna be an option

or a part of the gamr

game*

[brave anvil]

Joris

[Reply to:](#1057317362291974144 message) also i will delete messages saying "make it a toggle"

Bilhal

Also is it gonna be an option

Jump

[Go to message!](#1057317362291974144 message)

[night nebula]

i guess not

even though i would like it to be a toggle

[late wing]

bilhal moment

[brave hill]

mf

I just asked a question

[smoky cipher]

I could also see the background slowly moving to the right

should be really slow though or else it just catches your attention or when way too fast even motion sickness lol

[brave hill]

Well how it is originally

is not bad

this idea is innovative and perhaps being slowly moved to some direction to counter dizziness and effects

could be a good idea

However, the way it is now can be considered as fine enough

We will see

Joris did submit the code and do the work

and got the role of github contributor he so much deserved

[smoky cipher]

It obviously isn't a necessity, but I think it'd be a nice touch that gives the menu a bit more character

[night nebula]

i hate to be the guy but,

[smoky cipher]

I know what comes next

[night nebula]

in a perfect world, it would be a toggle

[smoky cipher]

funnily enough it would work great as a toggle

(also less hud animation as a toggle is not out of the ordinary)

[brave hill]

toggles aren't even a bad thing most of the time, they are just notorious in this server for being the most overused option in most suggestions

[smoky cipher]

and that everyone uses them as a joke

[brave hill]

Yeah

[lofty tiger]

yeah ngl i prefer it without the blur so it'd probably be best as a toggle

[short saffron]

youve gotta be shitting me lol

[hexed parcel]

to be fair this one could actually make sense as much as i hate saying that as its more of a client side visual thing more than an actual gameplay element

feels more like a type of accessibility type visual thing anyways personally to me its all on the players personal veiw on this one ngl

[velvet bone]

I mean does it really matter enough to be a toggle?

[hexed parcel]

as some who is legally blind i will say visual settings matter alot and are not taken seriously as much as they should be personally i do not care about any of these however im seeing how someone could find it bad and annoying and could want it back to how it was before

i know the community shits on haha toggle! but like on a client side suggestion where it could be hurting or annoying someones eyes looking at it im saying it could be rather debatable

[hollow acorn]

Gotta agree as much as I hate saying it

I like the old one better

[velvet bone]

ok yeah I'll be honest when I said this I did not read up enough and I just kinda glanced

but now that I've actually read up yeah I think it should be... toggleable

[hexed parcel]

its more cause its a visual setting thing that effects zero gameplay for me that makes it viable for such a thing

[velvet bone]

uh oh!

[hexed parcel]

i think joris needs to like hear me out on this one not gonna lie bro

[hollow acorn]

My personal Cubby opinion

If it should be anything it should be a slider because I know everyone feels different about this

[velvet bone]

yeah guys I think it should be a togg- optionable

[hexed parcel]

things in regards to accessibility matters!!

[hexed parcel]

that could be even better LMAO

[short saffron]

if we worried about toggles now too 1.8 will never be done

was planning on overhauling the available options later

[hexed parcel]

alright i look forward to it ipod

[hollow acorn]

I mean yeah, 1.8 comes before all things obviously

I'm just sharing what I think would be best because there's quite a debate

[late wing]

this was against the jokes

not me actually REFUSING a toggle

[hexed parcel]

me when i ace attorney toggle

[night nebula]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GbYBq_T2ts

[brave hill]

So uh is it going to be a toggle or?

[night nebula]

i hope

[smoky cipher]

tbh I prefer the blur

[subtle bone]

I hate the blur

It looks out of place imo

[night nebula]

i want the regular brick background

[short saffron]

there's always gonna be someone to complain at the tiniest nonimpactful changes huh lmfao

[subtle bone]

i wonder who

[lofty tiger]

[hasty zodiac]

You can change your music volume in options

[late wing]

?? what

[brave hill]

he's speaking facts

in the options menu you can change the volume

[tired mica]

True facts !!!1

[still briar]

make it a slider

[fickle mist]

I approve.

[brave hill]

He approves.

[wet hearth]

Bro no way

The menu needs a slider?

For real?

I'm on team ipod for this one, at first I preferred no blur but side by side I gotta prefer with blur.

And yeah this suggestion is sick.

[hollow acorn]

I'm not accepting criticism from you

[wet hearth]

That wasn't even criticism but...
