Skywind main menu

Submitted by LASentry on

So, I'm pretty sure this has been mentioned a lot before. I was thinking, should we use the normal browny-yellow Morrowind background on the main menu or should we use the silver crest and moon? Personally I like the crest and moon but it's up to you guys :P

I think the Moon and Star in place of the Dragonborn/Empire Emblem would be nice.

Hmm, I think I actually prefer the crest and moon too! Besides I feel like we should keep the game's layout very close to Skyrim's so it wont be too alien. I prefer the original loading screens as well, just with updated morrowindy images and texts. :P

ok so there is no stretching now, but it's still low resolution... i saved at 1024 so i'll try 2048.

so that worked... unfortunately the moon and star is pretty small now in the middle of the screen. i can't find a high resolution one anywhere :|

You need the plugin for photoshop in order to be able to save as dds:

I like the gold one more. Morrowind isn't a cold stony place like skyrim. Just my two cents though.

I prefer the metallic-looking screen, but still am not very fond of it.

The problem with the paper-looking ones is that they look like ancient and crappy-looking paper (and thus remind me of Morrowind textures in general).

Skywind should have a more modern tone, but grey on black with a single object isn't quite right. Perhaps there could be that brown Daedric rune from Morrowind in the background behind or around it?
