Improved Main and Pause Menus

Description
This little mod is intended to make HL2's main menu a little more reasonable and comfortable to navigate.

Features:
- Removed "Extras" submenu. Now Lost Coast and "Workshop" button sits right alongside the main games;
- Added the ability to start new game while already in-game (for both new and classic game UIs).

IMPORTANT:
This mod does not work properly in Workshop, so i'd suggest downloading and installing it manually from GameBanana[gamebanana.com].

After the anniversary update - certain types of mods no longer work when placed inside the "custom" folder or downloaded via the Workshop.

INSTALLATION (GameBanana):
Extract the contents of .rar file in game's root location (steamapps/common/Half-Life 2).

what about if we make the main menu layout just like the leak engine
clientscheme :
// Top-left corner of the "Half-Life 2" on the main screen
"Main.Title1.X" "20"
"Main.Title1.Y" "450"
"Main.Title1.Color" "255 255 255 255"

// Top-left corner of secondary title e.g. "DEMO" on the main screen
"Main.Title2.X" "35"
"Main.Title2.Y" "450"
"Main.Title2.Color" "255 255 255 200"

// Top-left corner of the menu on the main screen
"Main.Menu.X" "20"
"Main.Menu.Y" "300"
sourcescheme:
"name" "Verdana"
"tall" "10"
"weight" "0"
"antialias" "1"

I can't start a new game in Lost Coast for some reason. The new game button is there, but it doesn't show anything after clicking it. Please fix it (I tried to install it via the workshop files and GameBanana btw)

@Pick Up That Can no, i just accidentally removed it while editing the text, it's back now, sorry about that lol

I don't see any GB link in the description. From the experience of Steam Workshop, it may be removed by bot.

For people who wants GB link, put /mods/564955 after GB URL.

@Muleke_Trairao try again installing from GameBanana, it got updated, just extract the contents of .rar file in game's root location (steamapps/common/Half-Life 2).
