Just out of curiosity: why did you change the click sound?

Nice features, but yes...why new click sound?? I think the older was better?!?!?
And why only a LOSE or WIN music and no movie like in the original KaM, has it a specially reason???

The new click sound is just for 3D buttons such as those in the menus. The 2D style icon buttons such as in the storehouse and build menu will use the old click sound. In KaM, 3D buttons didn't make any sound at all (try it, the menus are completely silent) and 2D buttons made the old click sound. I thought it would be better to make them different. I think it feels nice now, the old click sound felt too "heavy" for the menus or something... and I felt bad about using the old click sound where it wasn't intended to be used. What do you think?

@pawel95:
Playing videos is more complicated (we'll need an external library I think) so for now we'll just use the music.
Does that answer your question??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

*Had to search for the scroll bar*

It's fine, I was just curious too.

LOL! You know, Lewin, ever since you mentioned that you were annoyed by excessive end marks, I have been noticing it a lot more than usual. It is now a pet-peeve of mine too.

I think that the just having the music is better anyway. Otherwise how would we see those options to "continue watching" or "quit to menu"?
By the way, since some of the new trailer is shown in Coastal Encounter(which has !CLEAR_UP 255), I have a question: when you lose and continue watching, is the entire map revealed like it does when you lose in AoK?
This would be much more fun for the spectator, but he could cheat and give his allies intel on enemy bases. However, if the player couldn't chat, than he might get a little bored.

Jesus Lewin, please edit your post !

The entire 'quick reply'-section is messed-up (and so is the forum lay-out now)

*Looking for submit button*

and you wrote i a topic that you hate it, if somebody makes so many of "?" and "!" LOOOL

That's exactly why he did it...

I'm myself a fan of the new clicking sound :p
The forum looks quite strange in this thread now ehehe :p

Ahahahahaha, ah, Lewin xD

I've said it before and I'll say it again. I'm a huge fan of the work you guys have put in. It's beautiful to see that you didn't give up! After all, this is all done in your free time and it takes a lot of determination to get a project like this as far as you got! Most of the times, projects like this tend to be abandoned like halfway through because it ends up taking more time than expected.

Therefore, I think you folks more than deserve some recognition. I'll try to spread the word as much as I can.

For now, I have posted threads on these forums that I frequently visit:
