Difference between Velious Style User Interface?

[tekniq]

For the velious style User Interface, navigate to the uifiles folder, make a new folder called velious, navigate into it, and extract this into that folder:
http://www.project1999.org/files/veliousuiv3.zip
In order to activate this UI, you must type "/loadskin velious" from ingame


Before I download it or if I want to, what is the major difference between this and the Kunark Interface?

Why not grab it, and check it out? You dont overwrite your old one, you can just do /load default to go to default one.

I think they have pretty much the same flexibility. Remember though, you are not getting the "kunark" UI. You are running on either the SoF or Titanium client, so you are getting that UI. That UI is a great-great-grandchild of the modular Velious UI.

When you are getting the "Velious UI" for P99, its probably more accurate to say that you are getting a re-skinned Titanium UI that looks very similar to the classic Velious UI.

Also, assuming you put the Velious UI into a different folder in your UI directory, a simple "/load {uifilename}" command will swap you to whatever interface you desire to use, so you can keep your original UI, "/load velious", check it out and if you don't like it just "/load {originalUI}" to go back.

Here are examples (you can get all of those installed automatically via the installer in my signature):

Default (/load default)

Default Old (load default_old)

Duxa's UI (/load duxaui)

Velious UI (/load velious)

Oh wow, Duxa's UI looks very nice and modern. I know it may take away from the 'classic' feel but I may give that a shot tonight for a little bit of 'something new'. I get enough classic feel when I kill for hours and see how much more xp is needed for to level up. :eek:

Yup, Duxa/Crushev has put out a top-notch basepoint for a UI here on P99. Props to him, his UI, and that installer thing too!

You can also tint the windows on velious to make them so they are no longer transparent. Just click "texture" then pick a background color. I prefer black.

His UI is based out from Vert. I did most of the recoding on the old Titanium/Old/Velious UI's to bring them to P99 code levels - none of which were my designs. I still prefer my Vert UI found in my sig.

hehe depends on what you consider classic. I used a very similar UI back in 2002-2003ish. Id say that not Vanilla.. but pretty classic :)

Looks like he's using the improved textures also...i highly recommend it.
