You could do this now if you can make your 3d object, All the mechanics are in place and even the script commands are there.

Treat each 3d menu object as you would an object for you game, assign scripts and triggers to make them appear and hide.
Pressing on them could initialize the next task, or even start new levels.

I would start with paper and pencil and list which menus you need and the action for each button chosen.

Not a beginner task making all your graphics and then scripting this out. But will be a cool addition to your game when you complete it.

once we get camera commands in Lua we could do *exactly* like that with the moving around the scene, now that would be cool

We just need something on the voting board to get to #1 which allows me to rip the player control system apart and externalise it all, INCLUDING all the camera control stuff

YES we need this to be in the Voting Board,.

The main menu of a game is one of the most important thing to me, if it looks professional then people are more interrested in the product.

Hope to see something for this important feature, in a near update of Game Guru

i think this is already possible as long as you know how to translate 3d co-ordinates to 2d otherwise you wont be able to click anything (a work-around would be to use key presses though)
