New User Experiences - Menus, Closed Captioning, and other non-substantial tweaks
Hello! I'm going to words.
* Menu stuff!
* Scrolling menus when there's lots of options instead of doing lots of nestling!
* Video Options, Server Options, and Screenshot Options have been updated to take advantage of this.
* Headings are prettier in general to match the level platter's headers!
* Expose a bunch of stuff Mystic wanted exposed, without iundating the player!
* Little arrows!
* Better, clearer control menus!
* I know this is probably related to the above, but whatever.
* Very organised with lots of renaming and magical clarifying context headings!
* Killed the analog-only Camera L/R keys in favour of merging them with the regular turn keys in that context!
* Also little arrows!
* Statistics!
* One page instead of two, loses a lot less info than you'd expect!
* The benefit of having them on one page is greater than the loss of being able to individually discern which of your Score/Time/Rings is incomplete.
* ALSO also little arrows!
* Secrets checklist!
* Scrolls vertically!
* Allows for autogeneration of conditions based off conditionset, which allows for names of required levels to be hidden if you haven't played them yet!
* Still allows overriding condition string per traditional checklist.
* This allows us to show every secret's condition without letting it be spoiled or overflowing the everything.
* Also ALSO also little arrows!
* Closed captioning!
* Console command "closedcaptioning on/off".
* Shows stuff in the bottom right hand corner of the screen.
* sfxinfo[sfx_name].caption = "Butt.".
* S_StartMusicCaption(string, tics, optional player) allows for a caption to play without being anchored to a specific sound.
* Color Profile!
* Using only the best in advanced cube-based majyks.
* cv_gamma now goes from -15 to +5!
* cv_saturation - from 0 to 10!
* A new menu for modifying the hue, saturation and gamma of specific corners of the cube (RYGCBM) independently of the master options!
* Screenshots/Video Mode now supports turning on/off circumstantial color profile alterations (cv_screenshot_colorprofile).
* Spring cleaning!
* cv_allcaps is dead.
* Sudden death and old match scoring (25 points for shield damage as the only change??) is dead
* A few things are taken off the menu because they're not that relevant to have.
* cv_competitionboxes now applies to race as well.
* Failed teleports go nuh-uh.
* Question mark boxes don't have doomednums anymore, so they can't be placed in singleplayer and used to get free lives by playing with the tv_extralife etc stuff.
* Other tidbits!
* HUD offsets are tweaked to give one digit less space to score and one digit more space each to time and rings to match up the right edges.
* Emerald tokens show up on the level complete screen and are loaded into a coin slot at the end of the tally.
* Speaking of Emerald tokens, they now give score all the time, and continues instead of 50 rings when you have all Emeralds.
* Moved Race HUD down, and made it go bing bing bing BONG.
* V_DrawCroppedPatch now properly handles topdeltas.
* Minor tweak to GFZ3 eggmobile's pinch to be more lenient.
* Hudnames for skins now replace full stops with katakana dots. We could make it replace a different character instead if we really wanted to, but I figure this matches what is desired.

A less memetic message: On permission of Mystic, rejiggered a few things such that Race uses cv_competitionboxes, allowing the menu to be nicer.
Also:
* disabled the doomednum for ? boxes
* made A_MixUp play sfx_lose if you're in a gametype that can't use it
* Removed the all-teleporters option from cv_competitionboxes. It could just be done by tweaking the random monitor toggles, anyways.
Basically in preperation of supporting colourblindness modes I implemented the following link when loading palettes.
http://http.developer.nvidia.com/GPUGems2/gpugems2_chapter24.html
This basically means I can do whatever the hell I want to the colour profile of incoming paletties, and nobody can stop me. Muahahahaha etc.
Also, I added a saturation feature to show off its full potential, converted gamma from a table to a factor of the calculation, tweaked some menus and made the default value of cvars show up on sliders. Because that's how I roll.
* Provides a helpful description for the hearing impaired, whether permanent, temporary or situational.
* Consvar "closedcaptioning", with on/off values available.
* Only works if sounds are on. This is frustrating. I will see what I can do to allow it to work with sounds off in future, but for now it's dependent in order to properly accept or decline sounds.
* Thanks to MI for making that wiki page a lot more comprehensive a few days ago.
* Weapon ring is now a seperate sfx_wepfir instead of doubling up on sfx_thok.
* Also, made V_StringWidth work with V_NOSCALESTART.
* Made it possible to switch statistics pages using left and right arrows. Their previous functionality has been given to Page Up and Page Down.
* Swap over header style to the new version for everything.
* Move Master Server into Data Options, since it needs to be exposed somewhere.
* Show resolution on main Video page.
* Optimise by using V_RightAlignedString instead of V_DrawString with V_StringWidth.
* Revamp sliders. (Requires a new patch.dta I'll upload in a little bit in order to be perfect, but does pretty well w/o replacement graphics too.)
* Revamped base video menu and moved all the relevant stuff from the Game Options Menu onto it. Still mulling on where to put the Master Server reference.
Revamped Level Select (platter view)
Seriously revamped every level select instance in the game to use a more attractive and easier to navigate platter view, including:
* Game CLEAR! save (Title/Pause menus)
* Secrets Menu (including custom ones)
* Record Attack/NiGHTS Mode
* Server creation (Online/2P)
* MP Pause level select (Online/2P)
As a result, the layout of the last three above menus has been changed to varying degrees of difference.
Also, bonus feature: using level select (or MAP MAPxx without -force) in Co-op multiplayer won't reset your score, will keep any lives you have above the startinglives variable, and will not take away all your emeralds. The -force thing prevents both warping directly to special stages to rack up the emeralds AND ensures there IS a way to start a new game.
Check out <root>/!LatestSRB2Files/srb2win_branch_levelselect.exe with the latest patch.dta to see more.
Also, LF2_WIDEICON lets you do this. https://gfycat.com/MenacingClearAngora

Simple port of something I made for a 2.1 exe mod that Mystic mentioned
needed doing on the 2.2 Priorities topic
(http://mb.srb2.org/showpost.php?p=790613&postcount=4). Adds emblem type
"map", which gives you an emblem upon beating the map it's for. Var sets
more specific conditions; 1 for all emeralds completion, 2 for Ultimate
mode completion, 3 for Perfect Bonus completion. (These can be easily
removed if requested; these were added simply because it was easy to
implement for modders.)
Criticism on the way it's coded and/or how it is implemented is highly
encouraged. Test wad is <root>/TehRealSalt/levelemblems.wad,
pre-compiled exe is <root>/TehRealSalt/levelemblems.exe.
