This installer package will activate nine randomly-selected main menu backgrounds, representing the nine worlds of ancient Norse cosmology. Each world has its own unique musical theme.
Items Included
Nine menu scenarios and the user.cfg file to make them pop up.
Nine pieces of new music to go with the worlds.
Three new lighting files that are used by the scenarios.
The Nine Worlds, in Brief
In Norse mythology, the gargantuan ash tree, Yggdrasil, connected nine worlds with radically different environments and inhabitants. Here's a summary of each of the worlds depicted in the menu backgrounds:
Asgard: The fortified home of the Aesir, mostly the gods you know from playing as the Norse.
Ljossalfheim: The overwhelming, mysterious and secluded home of the Elves, or Alfar.
Vanaheim: A single, lush island, home of the Vanir, nature-gods that once warred with the Aesir.
Jotunheim: A rugged world covered with huge trees and mountains, home of the Mountain Giants.
Midgard: The home of human beings, made by Odin from the dead body of the giant Ymir.
Muspellheim: The molten home of the Fire Giants.
Niflheim: A frozen, mist-filled world stalked by roaming Frost Giants.
Svartalfheim: A dark, unforgiving world, under which is Nidavellir, the homeland of the Dwarves.
Helheim: The shadowy world under complete control of Hela; the abode of those who did not die in battle or childbirth.
A special thanks to Reyk, for the editor and extra cliff/water types used, Auron, for his custom menu background guide, and Yeebaagoon, for inspiring me to make my own menu backgrounds. |

I love the set out, Thankyou for this, I can make menus, but I seem to lack in ideas.
I'm pretty sure that norse are the best culture in the game too. |
