One of my first custom UIs
Aidin — Mon, 03/16/2009 - 16:54One of my first custom UIs looked almost exactly like this. ;)
I don't understand how you
Dragon — Sun, 03/15/2009 - 12:06I don't understand how you can live with so much of your screen chopped off >< Especially nowadays where having to see everything is so huge
It's not being chopped off,
garreth — Sun, 03/15/2009 - 13:39It's not being chopped off, it's being scaled down and it's what I used to do on my old computer. It allows you to put your tools out of your line of sight AND you get added performance because your computer has to render less pixels in 3D.
GREAT UI, Ghli. This is up in the "advanced" level of UI modification due to all the factors involved. Have you seen a frame rate increase since you did this?
For the most part I agree,
Shihli — Sun, 03/15/2009 - 13:54For the most part I agree, but it seems that Kaluu could trim down the amount of screen he's scaling - there's a lot of wasted space in those black bars.
There's isn't acutally much
Ghli — Sun, 03/15/2009 - 14:16There's isn't acutally much wasted space. Most of the wasted space is just there so pallypower, grid, and elkbuffbars can grow as there are additional classes, people, buffs, and debuffs are avaliable. Some additional blank space can't be helped, as I am not sure if it is possible to have a L-shaped viewpoint.
I have no idea if this gives an overall FPS improvement yet. I just threw this together this morning.
I like it, and yeah, thats
Vulk — Sun, 03/15/2009 - 17:22I like it, and yeah, thats not much wasted space. Anyone remember my old UI from the BT/Sunwell days? How streamlined that looked in raid. Well out of raid it looked like a pos with lots of wasted space, similar this.
Ahh neat, I can dig up a whole image of it still. Imagine how much wasted space was on this with no grid, pally power, buffs, boss timers, oRA2 cooldowns, etc. Lots of big gaps lol (I think I added in parrot on the left of grid to compliment the scrolling boss text from big wigs on the right; My how I wish I had the time to make something this nice again).
The screen hasn't been
Ghli — Sun, 03/15/2009 - 12:15The screen hasn't been chopped off. From what i can understand from what aperture does, it's acutally scaling down the viewpoint. It explains why my toon is centered in the viewpoint, instead of the full screen.
I might give it a try later,
Dragon — Tue, 03/17/2009 - 06:38I might give it a try later, however I have some ideas that I am going to use to setup a UI later.
Unfortunately it is going to require 2 different profiles in Bartender ><
