new idea from wow
 

well i finally came back to eq2 from wow. and would like to port the ui i used there to eq2 but not sure if i will be able to without lots of help. here are a few ss one of the interface its self and then the elements that are used. check them out and tell me what you think or let me know if anyone else has tried this
thanks all

Since EQ2 will get a minimap soon as well, that whole layout should be portable to EQ2.

well im going to give up on this. and the reason why is i cant get it to work. everytime i try uibuilder crashes my computer. if anyone would like to give it a try let me know and ill send you the dds files i have. for some reason the ones posted above are currupt. also if someone is going to give it a try good luck even if theres no mini map should be nice looking

maps are scaleable now, so you can have a mini map :)

regarding UI builder, an old version of this is available in the utilities download section, maybe that works better for you.

well i decided to dive in. this is what i have so far. still needs alot of work. i used profit as a starting point since i have messed with it before. as soon as i get more windows done and working ill post this in beta if anyone wants to check it out.

Nicely done. I'm sure if ya get it all spiffied up there would be plenty who would check it out.

yay, new interfaces, keep them coming! :)

I'll definately check it out! it's looking good. I am so jealous of you guys being able to do this stuff. I for one really appreciate all the work you UI folks do.


I know, I know... money talks, BS walks :)

working on it still just trying to get everything how i like it. here are some new sreenshots of it mainly the main hud and my bottom bars and how they ack. like i have said though this is mainly based off of profit ui, so i might just make this a skin for it but not sure yet. hope you all like it

Very Nice
 

I am very interested in this and would be glad to help in any way I can (which I assure you isn't much =P, lol). a suggestion that you may not have though of, custom icons for EQ2Map to make them smaller and less clutter for the tiny map

I would personally get rid of the chat boxes on the right in favor of more hotbars (I go a little crazy with them!) but I can do that after you release it

Aside from that, I was curious if the map still zooms in and out, and where the implied target window and group window are located.

thanks for showing interest in this. yeah the mini map does get a bit cluttered when zoomed out, but when you zoom in it spreads everything around where it should be. the implied target is just under the target window. and as for the group its basicly a floating window that you can put anywhere. i have using profits group so you can change it to any of that veriant. i havent modded it at all so there should be no problem. ill take some screenshots of the group and implied window and get them posted so you can see them. trying to get some of the popup windows and stuff reskinned right then ill release it for beta
thanks

Looks good! It looks sorta like a ProfitUI modification

Things that make you go: :eek:

(SCNR)

My wording was confusing but I meant while it looks different, it still sorta looks like a ProfitUI modification and kind of retains the same look. (Most noteable is the little bars on the bottom)


I've been doing that a lot lately. ;)

Ah ok. I like the look of his bars, in particular how he mananged that consistent design with the top bars, also on the chat windows. Nice skinning.

Drago man, from what I see it don't even look close to profit, other then it has hotkeys and chatwindows:P

Its a slick looking UI Chop, keep it up.

*EDIT*
Ok I take that back. The start button window has allot of resemblance.

Giving me a hard time like I give you!

The graphics and layout do not look like Profit, but look at the bottom with the stats and startbutton. That's what I meant.
