I made this custom menu for a story based game, but I thought I'd just share it instead, for whomever would be interrested, so it's free to use .. It contains fading menus, open/close click on menu, and are fully working in multi player as well.

I really like how "dynamic" the menu look. That overlord passing by really gives a whole lot of feeling to it! 
I think you forgot to activate the UI once the player has made a choice, though it might be intended.
Please make it a Library.
And if possible, would you implement a basic Bank system? I really can't get to understand those.
Along with this system, a Wiki about Banks would be awesome.

Thanks Payne, the interface was not intentionally, I copied it out of my own map, where cinematic started afterwards, thus the not turning interface back on. Bank systems are really simple - I would be more than happy to write a guide on it, but actually making it open source is a bit tricky, since the bank values themself are easy to make, but the actual stats that you want to save varys so much between games. I mean, do you want to save kills? Height, Color, Location, Progress, Choises .. It all depends on what game you're making.
If anyone needs help with making a bank system so it saves/loads values, for this menu or any other map I would be more than happy to help.

Isn't there a general format?
I mean, isn't it just about changing one little variable in the whole trigger to change it from Loading Height to Loading Stats, for example ?
If you've played WGX Nagrand, a micro map, you should be able to size what I in fact want. Basically, the guy stores some custom score that are updated based on the number of wins/loses a player has. At every start-up of games, he try to compares the banks all players have individually to update them so he can keep a Best Player Of Realm list up-to-date.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically[04:26 am]
Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?[04:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings[2026-6-20. : 6:15 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.[2026-6-20. : 3:47 pm]
NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.[2026-6-20. : 3:43 pm]
NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new
