Unfortunately it might not be possible anymore, sorry. I wrote it quickly as a fast response without looking into the code. Please forgive me misleading you. There were more changes actually, that made it impossible to achieve with such easy steps. I don't know if it's possible at all. I've never thought about bringing the old menus back since we decided to move forward and abandon the old style for the reasons described above. It might be possible, but more changes would be needed. But I am not sure if it still would work. However I don't want to discuss this anymore. If you want to mess with the UI do it on your own, we do not support so complicated scenarios. Either like it or hate it

The easiest way, the first that comes to my mind is to: 1. Copy the: ui_mp_x86.dll (ui.mp.i386.so) from 0.4.0 to the "etmain" directory under enemy territory installation dir, for linux this is: /usr/local/games/enemy-territory/etmain 2. Copy the silent-0.4.0.pk3 to local user folder and rename it to e.g. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.pk3. Againg for linux this is: /home//.etwolf/etmain This way the default ui dll that will be loaded will be the silEnT one and the menu definitions will be taken from the zzz...pk3 file. This way the ui dll will match the menu definitions and all will be running fine right from the start, without prior mod loading. But AFAIK the mod load would not still help if the ui dll was the original ET one. That's why this needs to be changed. Go ahead and try, it works for me. Don't ask me about windows directories, it's an unknown world for me, so forgive me

Is there any output on the console which might point out the problem? Could you post the console output from the start till the end?

What do you mean by "the rest of the menus"?

It's possible to use the old styles of windows but only to some extent. It's the backward compatibility which was tried to be achieved here. This is something that would require to change the WINDOW macro definitions in menumacros.h. Just change the WINDOW_STYLE_SIL_TITLE to WINDOW_STYLE_FILLED or whatever from among old styles defined in menudef.h. However this is of course not recommended, as the final result might not be what it used to be before and of course this would change the UI look for all the players because such change would have to be made server side. There is no possibility to switch to the old UI on the client side. There was something like this at the beginning of development, that when the ui_theme cvar was set to 0 (no theme) the old UI was used. Unfortunately, this feature had to be dropped because, as gaoesa already stated, we wouldn't be able to create the new UI without dropping the old UI. It was not flexible enough.

HI We've added new album to the gallery to show some of the new things we added to the 0.4.0 version of silEnT mod: silEnT 0.4.0 gallery album For those who haven't participated in 0.4.0rc1 beta tests. Regards

I would recommend to continue the xp save discussion in that thread. gaoesa has been helpful there, please state your concerns and problems there. He will surely help. Hellreturn can be helpful too, they both run silEnT servers without XP problems, moreover @gaoesa is the author of the silEnT xp db, so he is the best person to talk to.

The XP is stored based on the GUID. Without the GUI (previously it meant PB disabled) there is no XP. We will release 0.4.0 today or tomorrow but we moved the new silEnT GUID feature to the next version. Anyway, the XP save should still work OK for players with GUID generated by the scripts/tools already available. It's best if gaoessa could speak on this a little as he knows best about the XP save. What was that post?
