Solaria 2.1 Beta - Final Days
 

With just over 20 days till LDoN release I started a new topic to refine our final goals. we are almost done. We are planning for final release the day after (or the day of) LDoN release.

Here is the preview of the Look The Preview

You can find the beta file availble for Download HERE

Please test and give feedback... we are looking for any lag issues, and or other graphic glitches..

there is an OPTIONS Folder that has the the melee only player window.. to use just copy the XML file you want into the main folder.. overwriting what ever is there.. our TGAs have both graphics in them for ease of changing this

CCake is in the folder by the same name, this is used to configure the TWO tabs of clickies on the right of hotbuttons.

Current Goals:
Optional MP3 window that will fit 155pix to fit with rest of windows.
Check for any last bugs with graphics or lag
Decided what to put (if anything) in the small square below clickes)
Please continue to give feed back of any bugs, or problems.

Color Schemes
Below is the MP3 mockup in each of the colors we are planning to release Solaria in. Now they may not all get released on day 1. Also patches may come in the form of "generic" color just to get a patch out.

Mercury: (Grey)


Venus: (Green)


Earth: (Teal)


Mars: (Red)


Jupiter: (Purple)


Saturn: (Orange)


Uranus: (Yellow)


Neptune: (Blue)


Pluto: (Pink)

How about a timer in that small square under the clickies.

you could put more clickies below the clickies or make them bigger O.o

You look as if you could fit 4 more boxes in there - would be great as you could have full access to all of your inventory slots, primary, secondary, range, ammo, and 2 clicky slots :)

the reason we didnt add more clickies (we could) was that CCAKE only works with the number of slots that we have now. If we added any, it would no longer work properly.

though it is an idea worth looking into, maybe we could put some "static" slots there that would never change... (primary, secondary, range, ammo) and then you could put something different in the clickies above it with CCAKE..

will have to look and see what we can do.. but to be honest its really important that CCAKE continue to work (it saves sokol and i tons of coding) at least till we find someone who can write another version.

thanks for the feedback keep it comin!

Although if ALL the inv clickies were on one page, you wouldn't need Ccake :)

However, if some one has .net either C# or VB.net experience, and is a competent BORED programmer, either email me, or PM me I'd like to talk some ideas over with you.

Any way I think a timer is a good idea, havent ever even looked into them, but I'll play with them some.

Here is the mock-up of the square MP3 Player...



Sokol is working on the coding of this. As with other windows, we are trying to make sure EITHER MP3 player works with this.

They are square, sooo if you look you will see they are "maxed out" left and right.. sooo no way to make them bigger.

:)

i really like the ui, but how about removing the little lines on the bars or making them brighter? its a bit hard to see otherwise its great :)

little bars??

you mean the tick marks?

if your running in WINDOW MODE the tickmarks will look fuzzy. (just fyi)

Started using this today. The first time I used the Guild Management tool (alt-g) I hit sort (name) and all the information disappeard. I camped and logged back in. All the info was there and I tried sorting by zone and all the info disappeared again. Reloaded previous version of Solaria and sort works perfect.

Also noticed that the Pet Window is now set to Pet info all the time. Everytime I zoned I had to change it back to the melee info.

we don't have a modified Guild window, you were using the same window in both because its pulled from the default




CORRECT! we said long ago that we were switching that to Pet first and Melee 2nd. it shouldn't switch back and forth, but if it is. we will see if there is anything we can do.

/bow

Actualy I think I'll add a melee option in the options folder to keep the info first, I prefer it that way my self. And I play a Pet class as my main... Look for it in the next release to be info first pet second in the options folder for melees/ non-pet users.

-Sokol

FYI, I have decided NOT to place a timer in the open space of the hotbuttons window. The main reason for this is simple, it calls a lot of extra image calls that I'd just rather not have.
