Post Your UI

[ComputerNerd]

Works perfect, thank you. I tweaked the nameplates too just for fun. Might as well show my latest UI while I'm at it. Please excuse my archaeology addon randomly showing. http://imgur.com/a/YD1xw

Is the UI something available somewhere, or going to be.
A search for the archaeology addon (the only one with a name) failed to turn up anything.
Some parts of it are looking interesting.

The UI is mostly just ElvUI and WeakAuras. I might upload it sometime tomorrow if you'd like to mess around with it.

The archaeology addon is just my fan update of stArchaeologist by Safturento. I also use his old stAddonManager, but that still hasn't needed any updating.

I have so far avoided using ElvUI etc, but given the uncertain status of a lot of stuff I am currently using, then it might be a good time to try it out.

All these UI's .. its stirring up inside me! So i tried an UI i re-created for fun.. And to my surprise it worked like a charm, no tweaking needed :O
PS!: I take 0 credit.

What border texture are you using? I have Butger's GW2 UI and have been pulling elelments from it, but can't seem to find a proper border file that I can use with kgPanels.

VXT, I don't really know what mikkis is using but when I tried to remake his ui I used the textures from http://www.wowinterface.com/download...ars2.html#info in the aTextures folder is castBorder.tga or something like that. There is also a Masque skin in the addon folder if I remember correctly.

yeah i switched the font to an old favourite

What sort of purpose is a chat box slap bang in the middle of the screen supposed to serve? This is single handedly the least functional user interface I've ever seen.

It's so you can pay more attention to trade.

If you only use it for the clock and location, load something like (cough cough) LynStats and modify the Location in it instead of FPS/MS.

This UI is gorgeous and can't wait to use it! Will be the first time I've moved away from Elv/Benik in a long time.

TONS of inspiration looking through here. Decided I'd give my ui a shot. Here is my heavily modified Elvui

Still a work in progress for me. Open to suggestions

large quantities of information that get flashed up on the screen or given priority space are now rerouted through to just the chat frame for one thing. quest objective progress, raid warnings etc.

anyway ill take that as compliment, rather this than another picture of elvui

Is your minimap hidden in combat? I've sometimes got use out of it in boss fights, that mythic Highmaul fight where I had to quickly see where a certain marked player was and get to him instantly springs to mind. Obvs perfectly do-able without the minimap but, I just like to see it i guess. Other than that tiny thing, Looks like you're not tracking trinket procs and their cooldown anywhere, personally I would have had SnD+RS placed together leaving a bit more available space to put trinket bars in.

There's a reason ElvUI is popular - it's fully customizable and functional out of the box. Ofc if one were to do nothing with it it looks ugly and generic. But the UI is first and foremost supposed to work and improve performance.

One possible purpose is to make it more convenient to talk to friends while doing casual questing, like in that screenshot. Every UI isn't meant to be used exclusively for serious raiding.

[Exerionx]

Just a quick question, is it custom code that is being added to elvui to add the class color top borders above the chat frames, player/target frames, etc? Like this one:

All I know is that it's an option from BenikUI called 'dashboards' I believe. I think it might be custom code, but I'm not sure. Sorry if this wasn't much help.

just getting back into it. still need dozens of trackers and need to tweak the buttonskin to get it right where i want it

http://abload.de/img/wowscrnshot_070316_136gu6q.jpg

i'm having a problem though. i don't like the big actionbars at the bottom, but they work really well for me. for everything that i really cba putting into weakauras and shit i can just glance down and see 'oh, spell reflect is still off for 13 odd seconds'. functionally it works wonders, but aesthetically it bothers me. does anyone have a suggestion or a tip? i'm all eyes. thanks a bunch, you.

I agree that this is much preferred to all the nonsense that many center, although written information is not the pinnacle of data transfer personally I just mute all raid warnings and DBM clutter, rerouting it to the chat is a good idea.

If you could provide your intent with the UI it would be easier to critic it. But coming from the end raiding scene I think it is highly functional, except of how you have positioned your buffs (and debuffs?) and I miss some indication of (important) available abilities.

I think you have far too many duplications all over the place. For example your 'S&D', 'Revealing Strike' and 'MfD' are shown at two-, three- and three places, with names, icons, timers. And ultimately 'revealing strike' isn't particularly important, yet you keep it in the center of the screen with three duplications. Same goes with 'slice and dice', all you need is a big ass icon telling you if it isn't active.

You could just download the ui if you want :P

ya yr second point is something I've noticed on a new character with skills I'm unfamiliar with, I've actually introduced a toggle for him where the collapsable action bar pops up in combat and hides again afterward which works quite nicely in tandem with the player nameplate.

this is very much a casual experimentation though, I'm designing it whilst dicking about doing quests with Lyn on the beta. i did actually move chat down a bit recently! it occasionally overlapped the nameplate on more erratic movements of the camera.

i like this, though the soft stylised sans-serif and square angled pixel fonts seem slightly at odds with each other.

no easy answer to the action bars, you could try scaling them them down so the overall bar width mirrors that of the castbar and unitframe, or attempt to embed them as a block under another element like the chat or the minimap.

What font are you using on chat, tooltip and questlog?

What I would do (and intend to do in Legion) is use a bar mod that will allow you to hide your action bars, keybind everything you want, then hide them. Then create a HUD like this and type in your keybinds as static text displays - get your wa's/cds/priorities and keybinds all in one:
