[DECORATE] Hexen style Class selection menu despite long class list?

#1

So a thing i have learned is that you can attribute hexen styled custom portrait and animation on the class selection menu to perhaps add extra information and such. Which is neat.

But my problem is that if a certain ammount of class is in the mod/game, zandronum seems to be forcing a list filly with smaller names and removes the character preview/portrait.

Is there a way to disable that and perhaps make the large selection scroll down or have both the small list and the selection portrait so they can still be provided quick/basic info on a class?

AFAIK there's no way to disable it. You can make your own selection screen inside the game if you really wanted though.

They don't, if you have more than a certain ammount it forces to have a list with small letters and no class portraits by default.
I wouldn't mind the list if it wasn't for the fact it removes class portraits, cause i would like to be able to set quick class infos and everything but oh well

Take a look at Beast Incarnation to see how class selection is handled there. It has lots of classes with portraits and descriptions. Maybe you can figure out how it works and do something similar.
