UI mockup

[vakuum]

Hi!

I started playing around with the a screenshot from eq2 and the image used on the new streaming launcher. I think the result is quite good, but might be hard to implement. Anyway, just wanted to share the result, some ideas might spawn from it.

Note: The buttons, slider and tabs in the screenshot are from another profitUi mod i made.

I think this is wonderful, I would send them to SOE see if they would release it with Sentinel's Fate =D

Looks pretty good. Most of it could be implemented as a simple skin, i.e. change to the graphics file. However those ornaments on the corners look like the go further than current window boundaries. There was a bug which would actually render image objects outside of the window boundaries - if that bug is still in game that could be exploited to make the implementation of your design very easy indeed. Otherwise you would need to resize all windows which would still be easy but a lot of work.

After some playing with the xml files i now understand that most backgrounds are based on a single rectangular. I was hoping to only change some stuff and it would go out over the whole game, sucks
But I might be able to figure something out, but I would really love to be able to add extra images. (hint SOE dev)

Here is my final sketch!

I managed to replace the DialogFrame, But every windows using it needs increased padding..
Any idea how I can fix the padding issue?

Change the location so that the left / top edges are where you want it, then change the size so it fits.

It seems I need to edit (and fix) almost every single .xml file to make this ui come true
Looks like it will forever stay a concept...
