I can't wait to see the finished UI, great job!!!

Any more info on a beta release?

just wonder what the ETA for this will be

Is Kudane still around?

eta
 

be kind and give us a beta! :eek:

looks awesome!

Wow this is looking really nice so far. I'm not too big on the new bars (I prefer the default at least in EQ2), but the chat windows are fabulous :D

Is this project dead?
 

Any word on this? Kudane hasn't said anything in a long time. I really, really, really x100 want Vert for EQ2. It was my all time fav EQ1 interface, to the point that I don't care of any other interface (or any EQ2 interface I've seen thus far). I'm desperate for Vert for EQ2 but too useless with the UI builder to do it myself (I tried).

Thanks.

whats the word on this? is it still in the works are an abandoned project?

Well Sokol and I are still planning this but the recent UI changes have caused us to basically need to start from scratch.

Add to that the fact that sokol lost a MB and Hard Drive, and I recently had major CPU issue, this project is way bogged down.

I am sorry, I will get back on this very soon, and hopefully I will have something for you all very soon.

/bow

Kudane!

KUDANE! you're alive!
wb :D

Welcome Back Kudane. Mod is looking good :)

Welcome back...
The taco will dance to celebrate your return -->

Kudane, feel free to snag my FetishNightfall Beta if you want something more consolidated to work with than the Default files.

I did a complete reskin with all UI image elements packed into a handful of files. Also setup a dedicated Namespace with new styles for virtually everything.

The SOE Name space has a pile of unused images, and styles that only confuse things. Their image resources are scattered over a dozen or more DDS files.

I was just bugging about my UI the other nite in my guild chat, saying I miss my EQ1 Vert UI. OMG I'm so excited you're working on an EQ2 Vert UI!!! Crisp lines, clean and compact view, and labels. I love it! I can't wait!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Seriously Kudane, are you still working on this? And when will we see something?

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.
