Lupus' Menu Backgrounds 2

Author File Description
Lupus Lupus' Menu Backgrounds 2
Menu backgrounds for Age of Mythology: The Titans Expansion

I have converted some of my screenshots at AoM eyecandy showcase into backggrounds.
It is possible to just chose a few backgrounds to use if you don't like them all. You must however download them all.

Important
The lighting "menuArctic" is also used in the Beach menu.

The folder contains more information of how you can customize your menus. Read the INFORMATION.txt file.

Quoted from "nottud":

If you wish to view these menus using my editor suerpack. Rename the scenarios to one of the names in the main menu chooser dropdown box and select it to set that menu as your background until you quit the game.


Screenshots

Beach


Swamp


Temple
It kind of easy to change camera angle on this one. Just enter the editor and find the Camera Cut-trigger. Try to find a good angle and Set Cut. Save.


Arctic (updated from the previous arctic menu)

Excellent idea, turning screenshots into menus is really great :D.

I'll be using the temple one with a minimised interface.

While the eyecandy in your shots is excellent, you cannot get a 5 because there are some things that need improving.

My favourite ones were the Beach because of the lovely island in perspective and the excellent horizon. I also liked the Sun Temple, and it was a pleasure to look at.

You didn't get a 5 because of two reasons:

The first is inconsistency. Some of your screenshots were spectacular, however I felt the Arctic screenshot felt a bit empty (A bit unfair, as in real life it is empty) and I think you could have used a better terrain than coral on the swamp one. It looks like it's underwater to me.

The second reason is that your menus are just screenshots. You should have at least added a few triggers to make them look more active (like people and birds moving around etc.).

Other than that, this is a great menu collection, and I would recommend a download to everyone who wants a more interesting main menu. :)

Additional Comments:

Keep it up ;).

I have my reasons of why some of the menus is quite empty.
