InGame GUI?

Is it possible to create an InGame GUI that would allow the player to select a character without having to type in a command or to shapeshift?

I believe it's possible, but too hard to do it. I'm not sure exactly, because I don't modify to that extent, but I think it would take a great amount of time to complete such a task, due to the coding the the GUI itself, and the part where it makes it allow the commands to be executed.

Well if anybody actually made a program like that it would help very much. It would be much fun too seeing as you could switch between characters instantly in a fight.
But still as Striker said sounds like much much work that would take much time.

Making a menu with Oni's GUI controls would be hard and would require coding in the Daodan, but there's been a few scripts that create menus using BSL.  Gumby's Konoko vs. World script even has a part where you choose what character class to play as.  So if someone wanted, they could adapt that code and make a BSL menu just for shapeshifting.  Although I'm not sure how much faster it would be than holding down F8 to cycle the normal way.

Yeah, i thought as much, and I don't suppose adding on to the original F1 menu is an option either... anyways, what I had in mind wasn't just shapesshifting but weapons, and even classes that I made up for the Special Forces Mod i'd started awhile back. Maybe not for SP, but I think something like that would be good for MP

The cycling part could be removed for one. Instantly jumping to whatever class is much more convenient.
