    Looks good, the only thing that could be a problem is the small video player. I'm assuming the window can't be resized and the video doesn't have a "fullscreen" button.

    No, it has a full screen feature... :D the video can be clicked directly to enter fullscreen mode ;) and click or press ESC button to minimize again.

    Looking cool, not sure if it's included in "tools" but allowing players to edit their game options from the launcher would be neat.

    Yeah, I already thought of that, thats why I made this launcher for easier change of game options. anymore suggestions to be added to the launcher maybe?

    Looks nice and simple.

    I have no clue how difficult this would be but is there any way to hook it into steam friends system to show the servers your friends are playing on?

    might be possible, but It might take a very long time, but I'll try.

    Looks neat. The 4 round buttons at the bottom, different trailers? Perhaps you should highlight them more, so people see them as buttons.

    The credits are understandable, but I'd be a bit more subtle about it if I were you.

    Finally, if you press the "Play" button, you go to the next menu, with the three buttons. I suggest making everything into one single launcher menu. Basically, add the "servers" and "tools" to the main screen. Perhaps "options" too, as someone already suggested.

    Sweet job though, it looks really professional already.

    Yeah, the 4 round buttons at the bottom are different trailers, I was thinking the same thing as you.. I think people won't really see those buttons, I'm trying to find a better way how to match the button with the menu.

    Ok, I'll try everything as you suggested.

    Sorry about the credits though, but this launcher was meant for my NS2 Offline Lan Launcher which I made a few months ago and abanddoned it, this launcher was supposed to be a launcher that enables you to play NS2 offline.. me and my friend played NS2 LAN offline but eventually I abaddoned it because I don't want to destroy the NS2 community. It never got released and never will.

    I respect the NS2 devs for creating an awesome game.

    That looks nice. And i agree with a couple of the stuff mentioned above, like the game options and so forth. Great job.

    You know what I would like to see? A button or tab listing common and useful console commands, such as viewing your fps. Might be going out of your intended function though.

    What do you mean listing of console commands? you mean like:

    cheats 1
    dev 1


    like those commands??

    Like those but useful. Like joining teams without physically walking into the "join team" zone commands "j1" and "j2".
