I am sure there are screen saver making software somewhere on the internet. But I know of no one who has actually made a screen saver like the ones on those work stations. I too would like to have one with password protection so I can lock my computers when ever I am not on them.

UPDATE!

I got some screen shots of the terminals and copies to Mom, (She is a very good graphics artest), and she said that she can make the graphics for the screen saver if I can put them together, so I am going to try this Easy Screensaver Studio software and we'll see what we can come up with.

Actually, it should be fully possible to make a decent screensaver by opening up the GUI editor (either typing "editguis", without the quotation marks, in the console, or by supplying "+editguis" as a command line parameter when running the game, again without the quotation marks), and get some screeen capturing program to capture the animation (hypercam, camtasia or otherwise) from there.

Then either find a screensaver editor that allows you to loop a movie, or pull out each frame from the movie, and then "roll" through the frames.

I wonder. Should I put "Station Locked" on the screen saver or should I just have the UAC logo?

Personally, I'd like to see it with the "station locked" on. If you have time, you will hopefully make both :)

Any update on those screensavers? I think it'd be cool to have one that showed the screen that's all fuzzy and you can barely make out UAC then have it show the pentagram that's all dark that you see on some of the screens.

The one Mom is working on looks even better then the one on the computer screens, it's more 3D like with a crome finish. It will be a while before all the frames are done. But it is getting there.

Oh, I can't wait for the screensaver to be done. I've had the same screensaver for my computer for almost 4 or 5 months, and a Doom screensaver would be awsome.

Any new updates?

I just downloaded the 1.3 version with the scan lines and it looks pretty damn good.

Could be cooler if it was granier, staticy, and flickered. An ocasional demonic image wouldnt be bad either.

I have some good news! All the frames for the spinning logo are done. The file is here: http://mywebpage.netscape.com/cybergeeker/screensavr.zip. Don't worry. We'll keep working on the "Station Locked" part.

sorry to bring this thread up from the dark corners of the forum, but I just found this while searching for this exact thing: A UAC screensaver.

I'm wondering. Where did this thing get to?

I'm really trying to find some kind of finished UAC screensaver, and all of the links on this thread are (naturally after this much time) dead.

Some help?

Hopefully CyberG will come along and let us know if that UAC screensaver ever got finished.
