Every change I do to my UI is 100% compatable with Tables 2, so as I keep VertClassic updated with new patches you can always just grab the newest RC, or beta and copy the new windows to your tables II folder. I make almost no changes to the actual code of the windows.

One thing I might note, grab out the font files that are included with my UI, I do change them a bit, and I am a HUGE fan of arial, so I tend to use that as much as I can. I also have created 3 versions of the 14 point font, a 12, a 13, and a bold 14. These help my UI a ton, and I have snuck them into the files every so often. Also the windows have their titles moved to the left, so they might not visually look the same as the rest of the windows, but they will work perfectly the same in this UI as they did in mine.

Findarato,

It's great there is hope for us Tablets fans, but you could easily cover both of these UI's in one swoop.

Would you consider adding the tablets UI to your other UI download? Perhaps just adding a seperate folder inside your UI that says "Tabletsmod" or "Tablets". Then people who wished to have only the tablets look, could simply copy the contents from that included folder to the main directory and select "Yes to overwrite all", and bam, simple process.

Or something of the sort,.. You get my point, just to make it simple, and as if tablets does indeed live on. You would get a brand new "fan base" for your work, and I'm sure people would start snagging some things from Vert and mixing it, both now being your work. You, hereby, taking over Tablets makes it from here out your work because the author no longer supports it. Over time it totally becomes yours from the change, and as you base your own work from it's very structure it just seems like the most natural progression and practicle solution for all these Tablets users left in the dark now.

What do you say?

Take care,

Hmm, nifty idea, I will give it a shot.

I think 90% of the work I did can be undone by just replacing graphics and a coupple xml files. You might run into a wee bit of an issue with new windows such as the skills window, which could end up looking a lot like ClassicVert

I will create a TabledII version of ClassicVert. Look for it in the comming days. Need to finalize some buggs in mine and you will see both comming very soon.
