Actually, I think this is a step backwards from LE4. The start button has too much contrast. Make it smoother, and easier to look at. Also, the squeare buttons are sooo last century.

Why not just change the start button to a windows flag, with no background? So it looks like its part of the taskbar. I think that'd look better.

What I'm asking myself is if all these mods are being notified to em3 so that they can be uploaded on lunaelement.net. Otherwise, it is just a complete waste of time for mods' creators and pretty uncomfortable for mods' users.

A suggestion to em3 concerning lunaelement.net: why not dividing the downloads in categories? For example LEX-StartButtons / LEX-Shellstyles / LEX Colour Selection Tips etc. (X = releases from 1 to 5).

any 1 able to tell me how to make the startmenu look kinda like the vista menu?

im not fussed about the entire look, but I would love just shift the white pannel accross so the icon's are removed

i don't think it is possible to remove the icons on the right, but i never tried.

i'll try right now and see if it's possible. might be something simple like changing the content margins.

edit: yes it is possible. I just tried it.

see...

      Agreed. And this is a great discount offer! It's a shame that there's no discount offer option for people who would be fine subscribing for a year-long term, but pay monthly.
    • A Warhammer 40K racing game and a chess roguelike are free to claim on the Epic Games Store

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      A Warhammer 40K racing game and a chess roguelike are free to claim on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The Epic Games Store has returned to its standard giveaway procedures after weeks of mystery freebies. The latest drop is replacing last week's Rogue Waters and Songs of Conquest games and has brought in a double giveaway offering Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King. As always, the game is yours to add permanently to your Epic Games Store library within the next seven days. From the duo, Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks lands from developer Caged Element, and it's a racing game that was only released last year. The title has you piloting Ork buggies, tanks, and aircraft modeled after the popular tabletop miniatures. The focus is on multiplayer mayhem, offering multiple game modes that have you fighting other players as everyone tries to survive and get across finish lines or destroy mechs. Crossplay support between PC and consoles has now arrived as part of a free update, too, giving a boost to matchmaking times for this multiplayer-focused title. If racing carnage isn't your thing, then The Ouroboros King offers tactics. The indie title is a mashup of chess and standard roguelike experience, letting players create their own armies to defeat an enemy faction, all on the familiar checkered board. There is a procedurally generated map, pieces with special abilities, relics that bend the game's rules to make overpowered builds, and more. The newly available Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King giveaways on the Epic Games Store are set to run until June 11, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, a new freebie will take its place on the same day. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.
