Default Question about UI scaling

I currently have a very simple interface that I have grown very attached to but want to go from 720p to 1080p resolution without changing it. I play on a television and like the current size of all my windows(pretty large) but was wondering if there is a way to go to 1080p without shrinking everything to unreadable size.

Any help would be appreciated as I am not very savvy with messing around with Interface files. I currently am using the default Interface with just a player window addon and group window addon.

Didn't know it went to 6..cool. Ok that fixes one problem but I am still having the issue of every window being microscopic. The chat windows are fine because the scale feature is built in but with everything else like toolbars/playerwindow/groupwindow/etc. they become so tiny that I don't think I'de be able to stand it.

example of how it looks in 720
[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

and in 1080
[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Is there any way to scale these windows or should I look for a similar Interface that would work better for me?

Make a copy of your current ui to a new folder and name it some thing then load it at 1080p and make the proper size adjustments to your chat window and log out. Should be able to switch between the two when you change screens. Only way I can think of short to changing the code. There might be a default file you can mess with tho.

hmm I tried this and I believe I did it correctly and it didn't seem to make any difference. I know with some other games I have been able to find addons that would allow the scaling of every individual window and with alot of modern games it is already built in. Was just hoping one existed for EQ.

Guess my next question would be for anyone using 1080p resolution, what would be a good interface to download that doesnt appear so small and has similar simple windows?
