KR Themed Menu

Info
This is a KR-themed menu skin I've been making (WIP). Can't tell from the picture, but the stars in the background are gradually moving. There's also a very big'n beautiful Black Sun that rotates slowly - it was created in Adobe After Effects then rendered and converted into an ROQ video for JKA.

Features
- Works like a normal menu, is non-intrusive to the rest of the game. The only thing that should change is the main menu itself. Now that I think about it, I have no idea what JA+ does since I always start base jamp...
- Buttons for easily and instantly connecting to KR1 and KR2 (you still are required to enter a password for KR2, for obv. reasons).
- High quality images should fit most resolutions nicely. The ROQ video playing on the main menu had to be a certain size though, there's no way around that.

Download
OH! Oh, oh, oh! Click me!!!

Upcoming Features
- Going to finish reworking the rest of the font colors for the whole menu system.
- Maybe change the cursor if the default one bothers me.

How To Install
I forgot to mention this when originally posting, but just download the PK3 and put it in your base folder. If you start the game abnormally, like launching JA+ right away, you'll have to put the PK3 into the JA+ folder inside of /gamedata/ ... etc.

Tell me what you guys think and if you have any issues!! Also, going to sticky this eventually because I will be finishing more stuff and I don't want it to get lost in the ravels of space and time.

heh thanks guys, appreciate it. I'm not 100% fond of the way it looks right now, but the previous version was so much worse ... the only reason I keep using this menu is for the buttons to easily connect to KR1/2. Literally I just start the game, click Visit KR1, and boom I'm there.

I like the way it looks, Key :).

Looking forward to future updates, if you choose to modify and add-on to this menu.

thanks! I'm going to add much more shader detail to the words, giving them more of the hologram look.

it's good for connecting to KR because the server's not on the master list and it makes it easier for people who don't know the IP for the server so good job :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
