I'm almost done with a 10.6 compile, Yours is 10.7 correct?
[EDIT] never mind, the classic buildscript isn't detecting Apple [rez] or the dev tools....despite HD one finding them...It's not like there is anyone really using 10.6 anymore since evreyone else is dropping support for it. Even firefox.

You're right! gcc compile worked  . My laptop is clearly slower then your machine (and I have to workarround VirtualBox quirks), but we did eventually get the same result.
[EDIT]
There is one minor thing that annoys me, but I can fix it myself. The "Quit" icon for the 3do style pictograms, doesn't quite work with the rest of the pictograms, Especially with the white highlight. How about I edit those and you can put them in one of the remix packages?

I had already checked the images, It's the same size as the rest of them. The only difference is the content with the image cutting into the Grey/Text area. I would think I could put anything there so long as it was the same type/size.
At least that's the theory. Maybe I'm wrong...

What a pain...
Well, I made 2 fixed images. The 2x one is sized differently then the other UI ones, because the original one was and the game was made to work with it. Fortunately everything needed fit.

[EDIT]
UGGGH, I found out my gcc compile crashes on windowed mode...Is yours the same? And the old clang one worked fine... This is bad...
[EDIT]
Great yours didn't crash, so whatever you're doing, lets keep with that

Between Remix and your work, so far we got all the things I noticed over the years (which freaking is fantastic btw!). But I'll keep an eye out. What do you think with the pictogram UI stuff, does that all the text look centered to you? Maybe it's just me, or where it's located on the screen, but some of it looks like it's to the right a bit.
Great Idea with the bevel! I'll give it a shot. I think It's quite possible with what I have to work with.
Animated QS portals would be great If you can manage it!
The best part your work is that it CAN be up to date with what UQM people are doing.

Well it's not like the remix pack will be that large or cumbersome to download. I mean if it's easier for you to work with, then that's a good reason. But splitting them up for their own sake I'm not sure is necessary.

Splitting them up would afford me more breathing room in the code.
I can simply set each pack to load depending on the resolution instead of having to add in 1x, 2x, 4x values in the code and use if,then,else depending on the resolution and package loaded.
You'll see. I actually think it'll be easier since most people will go for 4x anyways.
EDIT:
So far so good with splitting them up into resolution packages.
My first fear was that I was going to lose the 3DO videos again. Last time I tried this no matter what I did it always used the PC slides.
EDIT:
Well I'm going whole hog on something I've been wanting to do for quite awhile.
When it comes to the 3DO style pictogram menus, I feel, the person in charge didn't really grasp what the
3DO version was doing.
It's not supposed to be a styled frame around an image, it's supposed to look like it's popping out of the HUD like a button.
Same with the font above the pictogram. So I'm going to try to recolor the frames so they fit with the gray background, worse comes to worse
I'll redesign the frame.
One of the reasons why I don't play in 2x or 4x. Catches the eye too hard.
EDIT:
Oh, I didn't realize I would have to overwrite your hard work on the quit pictogram.
I'll add mine as a separate thing and keep yours as a hard fix for the rmx-graphics package.

Hey, if it looks good, I'm all for it
The reason why I like UQM-HD is that I happen to really like DCZanick's interpretation of the original art. It's not just HD versions of the sprites, it has this 50's style to it that I feel really compliments the nature of the game (particularly as it is an old game in style not just in age), as well as really flesh out the character represented in the original sprites and voice work. Which is what I feel an HD remake should do. It's not like the HD remake of monkey island, there is some real artistry displayed there. And I just love looking at it. The UI elements I think you are right, could use a little fine tuning.

I wonder if the flash is all code...and if all our images are one pixel off horizontally....
I can't wait to see your new frames. I can't say I'm absolutely in love with the old ones either, but they were serviceable.
