Default Small things that annoy you about the new GUI

Hi,

Since it has been open for testing on Amun I bet there are already some threads in the respective subforum. But since the update is now life it is time to deal with "the little things that make you go argh".

A quick glance already revealed 2:
- skill effect icons are now on the other end of the screen, it made a lot more sense to put them below the hp bars. we had everything on one spot, now we have to look all around the screen. I cannot see any improvement over the previous solution
- i *hate* the new hpbars. please bring back the black background to have a "full" comparison. Selecting someone in a group it is often not possible to get his proper position, but now you need it to estimate how much hp he has left. Or look to another place on the screen to check it there. Again, this is far from being an improvement.
- the new font for names and the clan tag is quite hard to read with the shadow
- let the spellbook remember the position like the other windows do

Dont get me wrong, i like the overhaul of the GUI, even though i dont really care for the fancy looks. There is quite some stuff to like about the new interface, I dont want to make it look bad. But nevertheless I have some issues with it that i would like to see changed...

Z.

Check why i leave the game for some time.

I have enough of those not-ready releases.

- Not able to choose what mounts go into the mount list.

I just accidentally activated my unique 2 month White Lion Ancient. ;_; I only use it on Amun.
My gold bought 1 day horse will be next, I bet...

I agree that there are just a couple things I don't like about the interface.
Having the active effects shown on the other side of the screen is annoying, I think it should be under your HP bar.
Also I don't like that the numbers on the bar for your skills are now shown in white, the numbers get lost in the icon background and I can't always see them.
I do like the map and its amazing detail. I can zoom in and see every bit of the enemies inner realm.

A short list of small annoying things:
  • missing borders around health bars
  • not all party members shown under hp bar
  • missing shortcut keys for spells 11 & 12 on spellbars
  • combat log not adjustable in hight while over chat

Just a bug that annoys me, I'm getting random falling damage from running in a straight line. I know a number of other people are getting this issue too. I take 2k damage just after leaving my save ;(

(this is happening on Raven atm, dunno why it'd be any different on Horus or not)

Please fix ASAP, it's a pain to play right now -.-

- Scrolling on the spell bar still makes the screen zoom in even though this was reported in the test thread at least 2 times.

- I can't read Hp or mana values, the bars themselves are too small, font in many other situations is very hard to read.

- For the love of god let me disable the face animation thing or better yet the entire face, make it an option or something as some do seem to like it D:, fps in general is worse for me

totally agreed

1) the icons in the top right corner are a nonsense.
they're totally useless near the map, we need them back near the hp/mana bar

2) the hp/mana bars are way too small. you can't check your status properly during battles, often you can't read the numbers

3) when you select someone it's nearly impossible to estimate how much health he has left

4) you can have only 5 lines of combat log over your selected chat and you can't enlarge this window. my main char is a lock and we are forced to smap dots to be effective, so my log is full of nothing but dots and i can't properly check what enemies cast on me. it should be possible to enlarge that window keeping the chat active

5) too many falls in plain terrain. please fix it asap

6) we REALLY need the rest of the balance work, please focus on that now that new GUI is active

Also the combat log is bugged. It only shows the last 5 events and it's not possible to scroll in it.

+1 For disabling faces anyways. I found an officious way to disable them and gained around 7 FPS...
