I was looking at Goldi's MMM Solaria/Vert UI for EQ1, and I agree that this should be something brought into EQ2. I am sure Kudane is a busy person, won't get any gruff from me. I'm thinkin it should be based offa the Fetish Framework, because thats like a billion times cleaner than the main UI. Hyuk hyuk. Maybe someone else really familiar with Solaria/Vert on this end could tackle it. I thought about it myself, but there is the converting everything into DDS... *sigh*

DC

Paint Shop Pro has a batch conversion tool that will convert from tga to dds .. I'd be happy to convert the graphics files if someone posts them.

I'm trying to wrestle the files away from him. He is going through some computer upgrades and the machine the code is on is not up atm. I'll be in cali for E3 so if anything I'll be sure to get it then.

I can do that. The TGA's I have are from his most recent full version of Solaria on EQInterface (for EQ1). Didn't download anything for Vert because its basically the same and the last time vert was updated was like 2004 some time. Side note, does Photoshop have a conversion tool as well? I haven't seen it but I am pretty new to that program.

Wonderful to hear! Maybe that will save me some headache's

TGA uploaded
 

Uploaded as promised. Should be every TGA for Solaria EQ1

Here is a matching zip with all DDS format :)

Hope this helps - let me know if there is anything wrong with them. They are saved as ARGB No Mipmaps DDS.

Loved And Used The Solaria/vert From Eq1,been Waiting A Long Time For A Version For Eq2,but Im Patient,take Your Time Kudane.

I really hope to see this UI come out. I loved the EQ1 version and used it till the day I quit.

Heck I loved it so much I even converted it to a Horizons UI ;)

keep up the good work hope to see more of it in the future.

Sweet, thanks Killarny. I was able to *save* some TGA into DDS format, bu that resulted in LOTS of bleeding :( well, DXT3 anyway. If I save ARGB 8.8.8.8 then its fine. hehe. I really appreciate this.

ReVert compass for Fetish Framework
 

So far I've got a compass!!
The original didnt really fit right, so I ended up having to splice it a few times. Going to painstakingly build everything (maybe) on the Fetish Framework as an additional theme if everything works right.

Well anyway, here's a screenshot in UI Builder. Kinda turned out smaller than I though it would (the letters) I am possibly going to make the main letters (N, E, S, W) bigger and get rid of the NW, SW, NE, SW.

What do you all think?


EDIT: Made main cardinals larger, raised a few pixels from the bottom
Rather proud of myself.

You might wanna look at the Goth theme I already did. Its got a similar silver and black style. Might save you some time ;)

Compass looks nice. I agree the letters need to be larger/clearer.

Killarny, if you could, those DDS you posted seem to be RGB only. I'm not finding a single Alpha channel anywhere. Could you take a look at them again? I would appreciated it. Its mostly not too big of a deal, because most of the stuff is either 100% on or off. but there are a few things (like the compass overlay) that have a fade to them. Not too big a deal, because the fetish one is pretty decent (from goth theme)



Thanks! DC

Edit:
Hmmmm.. they look find in WTV, but in Photoshop the alpha dun show. Wierdness.

LOL! Yes thats what I have been using. Thanks Zonx. So Far I have the compass and the buttons redone and the titlebar done. Gonna hafta figure out what to work

Look! the titlebar!! Based offa the screenshot a few pages back. Thanks for having a bar that looked almost the same zonks

ReVert Chatbox beta
 

OK, here is an early version of the Chatbox in UI Builder. I still hafta redo the buttons and scrollbar... er, scrollbar doesn't show because of my Hida-scroll-feature... (hear that zonx, MINE!!!!!!!!! ALL MINE!!!! *jk*)
Other than that, pretty decent I think.

NEW SCREENIE!! Start Menu sample overlayed.

ReVert Spells
 

Th picture says it all.
Having some trouble getting this one to cooperate

I hope this is better.. the filesize is way bigger, but the alpha channels are preserved..

I never really played EQ1, but from what I see so far, this is going to be one sharp UI.

Sweet, thanks Killarny.

ReVert Inventory
 

Reskinned using the equip_back.dds from EQ1 Solaria

Redesigned the Paperdoll frame to what I believe has a more Vert feel
Stats page toggled on

It looks cool I cant wait for this to finally come out.

If you need a hand let me know ^_^

Thanks for the feedback.

I should point out that THIS will be based off of the FetishFramework, so you will need it in order for everything to work correctly. The one I am using is Classic, I dont know if it will work in Nightfall as well.

Working on knowledge book right now, hehe.

EDIT: Knowledge almost done See screenie *point down*
Still some stuff I need ta fix there, but its mostly done


Edit 2: New screenie of ReVert spells uploaded ... *DONE* er, almost

I did a stand alone spell book a while back that might be of use.

I wanted to create a spell book that is exactly like that one but well it wasnt eactly :P

http://www.eq2interface.com/forums/s...1&postcount=45

I did the spell book for the tables II interface, well then he did a small amount of tweeks to it :P

I like the tables because its very simple and easy to read the mod.

Yeah I have tablets2 on my computer also. I did notice how similar the two are. The main reason I am making mine this way is to maintain consistancy with the Solaria type EQLive side. The main background doesnt work because its like way too small, and stretching it makes it look funky. So I had to splice alot of stuff. havent really taken a look at yours yet.

Besides the knowledge book, the player window is going to be drastically different from the fetish style. .......

And i am too tired to thing anymore so imma go to bed, haha.

Knowledge book has a new screenshot. Look up.

DC

It looks kick ass, like I said before cant wait to see what else you convert.

The part I am really looking forward to is the effects bar and the maintained spell window, thoes are the hardest ones I have tried to mod and make look like Vert.

Not too sure that I will mod those (YET) ... I know from the DDS that they have a number bar that looks similar to the center bars in the spell window. Resizing the window is gonna bork that bar, because it end up being cut off. Not sure if I will do hotkeys either. Definately going to reskin the player window and the experience window. Possibly the casting and breath bars as well. Hmmm.... *shrug* am i missing anything?

omg this UI would look awesome! That inventory window looks so nice too.

ReVert Inventory (New) and Chatbox
 

New chatbox and inventory sreenies have been uploaded. Look above!

/drool

Alot of you guys have great skills I wish I could have the time to learn XD

honestly theres not many complete sets I like but the vert style UI's have always been my favorite. I hope you finsh this soon I'm really looking forward to using it.

really nice looking UI, hope this one ses light of day

it will come out after patch 8 comes live, because the guild window goes through a major change. Should give me enough time to complete everything

Was wondering if you have made any progress after update 8 went live.

Some generic tinkering of windows, nothing worth posting. Since this is based on the FetishFramework, I'm waiting for Zonx to update his first before I post anything of mine. I have taken a closer look to the original Solaria files, and have changed a few things cosmetically. Again, nothing worth posting. In addition, there are several elements that do not exactly line up correctly, will have to do plenty of manual shifting. I would say this weekend is a good bet for any "published materials"

Thanks for your maintained interest though, lets me know I'm wanted ^_^
