Do you still play SWTOR, Gio? Any update or tweaks to your UI since the last version?

Hey guys, sorry I haven't really updated in a while. I don't play SWTOR anymore, but still miss parts of the game. I did get an itch to play when I saw the latest updates about the Revan expansion. If the UI is outdated and needs some adjustments, let me know what you're looking for, and I'll re-download SWTOR so I can touch it up.

Are there new UI elements that need to be placed?

There's not been much since your last update, Galactic Strongholds, but that didn't add all that much in the way of UI stuff.

Come 3.0 though we're going to have separate buffs and debuffs that can be customised much more ;)

Is there a reason why the UI isn't smaller?

I'm not sure I understand what you're asking. Are you asking why all of the frames and overall scale are as large as they are?

If that's what you're asking, then that's just what I felt looked and felt good so I could still see my UI without blocking my view of the game. I know some guys like a really tiny UI, but my vision is not that great, so personally, I might like the UI a little larger so I can see it better.

Any chance of an update now 2.0 is out?

Sorry for the slacking here. I haven't had time in my schedule to play much lately. Let me get my taxes done this weekend, and then I'll hop on and update the UI.

Re: Chat boxes (Gio-Cefalu general UI)

I did notice that the chat boxes show the chat in left side but defaults to typing on the right box (when I hit enter it opens a chat bar on the right box but the chat is on the left). Is this what you designed the ui to do?

This is a bug that I've submitted to BW, but I have not been given an ETA. Currently, there is no way to choose a "default" chat window/tab. In v1.7 and v1.8, I swapped the 2 chat windows around so that the default chat window is on the left, but you will notice the left window is now called "Other" and the right window is called "General." In my case, I set the right window (General) to only keep up with System channels, and the left window (Other) keeps up with all other types of chat (guild, general, party, ops, etc).

You can also write

That should always point to the correct directory as that is actually what the software is looking for :)

I would definitely wait until the game has finished installing before adding in the UI. You will want to put it into this directory: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\SWTOR\swtor\settings\GUIProfiles where USERNAME is the profile that you log in with. If you go to C:\Users first, then you'll see the list of users in the list if you aren't sure what your username is.

You can also find out what this username is by opening a command prompt (start > run > cmd if you are in XP or Start > cmd (in the search bar)). From the command prompt, type in exactly this: %username%
You will receive a message that 'USERNAME' is not a valid command. The part in single quotes will be your user profile that you'll want to go to in the directory above.

Feel free to PM me if you're still having any issues.

I think I read on the forums somewhere that it was a bug as someone else was having a similar problem, so I'll look into it. I'll see if I can get it to change on my end, and then I'll let you know.

Actually, see here: http://www.swtor.com/fr/community/showthread.php?t=407575

And here: http://www.swtor.com/de/community/showthread.php?t=410067

And another: http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=406359

One more: http://www.swtor.com/de/community/showthread.php?t=407366

So, it looks like it's definitely a bug. I would submit a bug report in game. I'll submit one as well. BioWare has stated that they look for the number of people who report a bug to help them decide the order in which to fix them (but that's not the sole factor).

Hi there, great UI setup, well done :)

Just one minor issue I have.
The right chat window "Other" the font size is always 14.
Even if I select 12 it will not change.
I have edited the XML so all chat windows have a font of 12 but no change on the right window.

Any ideas or is this somthing you can't change?

Sukuyan, Nynik, and Marthisdil, thanks for the feedback. Sukuyan, I know the feeling. I am always tweaking my UI to get it exactly how I like it. Every time a new UI element comes out, I have to re-adjust and make sure it's exactly how I like it.

Currently servers are down, however I plan to check out your ui in game as soon as I am able to, I spent about 3 hours on PTS myself trying to get a decent layout that I liked. Then when 1.2 went live I transferred the file to my live server, and then spent another 2-3 hours tweaking the layout even more.

You Sir have put my 6 hours or so to shame with your layout, as far as I can tell from the screenshots. I prefer a very open screen with little to no ui elements in my field of vision. I am hoping that you have done just this.

Having been gaming for many years I have come to know the UI site very well for all my games, EQ2 being the one I rely on this site for most often. I can tell you have done this before and hope that your layout is just what I am looking for, for now.....hehehe (I often change up my ui for a bit of variety):banana:
