A minimalist UI

question · #1 11-05-2006, 03:50 PM

I find that the defualt UI is very clunky and alot of the popular ones here are even more cluncky and to big, any one making or know of one that's up-to-date that doesn't take a huge amount of space with useless clutter?

look around the site. all the available UIs are here. just look thru everything and see if there's any you like...

alternately, you could replace individual pieces of the default UI and set things up however you like

Hmm have a look at Laffs Lite .. the idea was to use as little screen space as possible but yet all the kinnda important windows still on display.... The way I use it is turn all the backgrounds off that makes it semi transparent so you can see somthing that would normaly be hiding under a UI window in game and of course lets you see more of the landscape.......

Might not be to your taste.....

But even the deafult UI now is not that bad if you turn all the frames and backgrounds off on the main windows, and you can set the icon sizes and stuff in hotbars far as it go's its much better than it was at first, now that was "clunky" one icon was the size of a small childs fist heehe

Failing that just hit f10 twice you cant get any less cluttered than that lol

You can check mine out, it's not hosted here as it's too large. Screenshots and download links are at Merciless.com

I like the UI for most of the game, combat and such. My problem is with clunky things at the bank, the broker, the friend list, etc. It seems most UIs I've seen are cosmetic or about showing lots of extra info on the main screen. Are there any UIs that solve problems such as

Letting you send a tell to a friend from the friend list by right-clicking their name. So far, seems I can only send a tell by typing out a full name.

Remove an entire stack of items from the broker. Right now I have to click "Remove one" 30 times if I have a stack of 30 of something.

It's been ask about the sending tell from the friends list but I don't think any one has been able to pull the data from the friends list to do such a thing. You also can't do context menu's in the UI so right clicking to bring up a user made context window can't be done.

As far as the Barker window goes, there are quite a phew that is modded to help you out with your broker tasks. You can currently remove one, a selection and a stack from the default broker. Try holding down alt, shift or ctrl while hovering over the sell window.

Yeah,that fix went in a long time ago, but it was just sort of one line in patch notes so a lot of folks probably missed it.
