Made my Guild! Check out New UI!

[Sam DeathWalker]

The left carbonite map does go transparent i just made it like that so people could see in the SS. Jamba is as small as it can be and still see the full names of each player although maybe she can make it go smaller in her new update, guess I should ask for that. The big button in middle is for easy and fast clicking.

Stuff I dont use often or that I click on when there is no pressure I make small (the buttons on the bottem) but stuff I use every time I pull a mob or have to get to really fast is big and in the center.

It is bigger then I would like, but then again my world view is good also. Plus I am at 1600 X 1200 instead of 1920X1200 so it looks a bit bigger (I have to keep 4:3 so the layout goes to my slaves 1280X960.

Your entire left hand side of the screen is blocked out by a huge map that has no use whatsoever. Transparent or not, there's no need for it to be there. You have such a reduced viewing area that you're going to get jumped by pats and respawns all the time.

Why on earth are you running Auctioneer on a multibox setup? That mod chews up a ton of memory. Keep it to load only on a bank alt parked in IF or SW.

Get rid of the menu bar - all those screens are available through easy hotkeys. It's huge and serves no purpose.

Turn off 3D portraits in X-Perl. Turn off Class and PVP flags too if you're on a PVP server.

Oh, and ditch the clickies. Learn to use hotkeys. You will not survive in any form of PVP or advanced PvE unless you have a good knowledge of hotkeys and can use spells/abilities without clicking a button.

Auctioneer can be very useful on the main character especially for someone new to the game. It's nice to know the value of a new item you find so you know if you should junk it or not. It's also good to know if it's more worthwhile to disenchant an item or vendor it.

I run 6 computers; the SS's are from the main, which only runs ONE account. So I can use bloatware and have all effects on high and it dosnt matter.

Carbonite is very very powerfull here is a quest highlighted (see upper right), it shows where to go:



Here is the auction stuff and arkinventory:



Here is a nice post office addon that lets you download all your mail with one button:





Here is carbonite again showing where the blacksmith is:

Not bad. You said that big map on the left fades out so I cant complain about it too much as that was my only real feedback for you. In the pictures it creates a HUGE blind spot. I don't think ive ever been able to auction house that oh so Delicious Cave Mold either.

In all its looking good. I still use the default UI.

Im kinda out of keys... ya the menue bar is wasted space though I have to agree to that, im going to shirk it even more next time if I can.

Turn off 3D portraits in X-Perl. Turn off Class and PVP flags too if you're on a PVP server.

I wanted the level to show and if I turn off the class I dont gain anything ... The portrait is a waste but what else would go there except a longer bar which is also a waste.

Im really fast with the mouse (trackball), I gain no speed moving things to the keyboard, and actually lose speed. And im out of buttons lol. Notice I have clustered the important click spots in the middle near where my oppent will be so as to minimize mouse movement.


Oh and the map on the left, not only do I transpartent it but when not in use I can easy reduce the size by moving the edges.

nvm

AFAIK trackballs are bad for fast responses? i.e. in PVP it will cost you wins. You might think you're fast but I'm guessing that it's actually hindering you.

Are you using mouse broadcasting to send commands to your followers? No key clicks?

Thanks for the link to the mini map add on.
