A picture speaks a thousand words.

[LINK REMOVED DUE TO OBSOLESCENCE, SEE BELOW FOR UPDATED VERSION]
Just add more heroes to the faction's racebps. Up to 8.
I just noticed that the menu was lacking the proper menu font (Caslon Antique). This has been fixed. I also added button "shadows", so that when there are less than 8 buttons on the screen, the whole thing looks less sucky. I also included a version with the fixed font without button shadows for whoever prefers it that way.
v.1.1 (with shadows) -

Is it then also possible to create new races this way?

New races as in new choices in the drop down menu are not possible, they fuck up stuff down the road, sadly :/

Coming up next: some decorators under the button themselves so that, when using less than 8 heroes, the visual balance of the menu is not broken and looks less sucky.
As for the model-viewing version, you all will have to wait for the summer. I need a free week to dick around and study scaleform, and that it's just not coming until June 15th.

Not in the elegant sense, but in practice, yes — we would just take another base faction and do the same as we did with GK/OM, although this time there could be 3 heroes to begin with.
However, the actual big hurdle is building another faction, not the technicalities of worming it in.
