Default A minimalistic UI for a small resolution

Hi folks,
I often play on an old PC with a 15 inch monitor, set at 1152 x 864 resolution.
Most of the mods I have seen are too big for this old setup.
I would like to use a simple, clear and concise mod that will work at this resolution.
I have tried Blue Infinity, Sparx and Veil.
Thanks!

EDIT :: i found a complete set who could work for you , it is pretty like the one i am using ( i took from this one the pet , and "eq button that i was missing ).
from this link ---> http://www.eqinterface.com/download...nfo.php?id=6362
---------------------------------------------------------------------

hi,i don't have a complete set ui for that resolution (mine is 1024x768 )but i am using different single pieces who are small and should work at that resolution :

from the eq/uifiles you can right click and make a new folder and name it like you want , and just put the single ui items u want in.

check into eqinterface / downloads + / ( you can choose other one also for your need , but those one work for sure for me atm (august 19 )

from miscellaneous :
MERC = tiny merc window with tilte bar (sparxx merc ui look small also but i didn't try it at the resolution (edit = work good and small ).

SPELL GEM : old default spell and buff icon

SPELL BAR : small vertical 12 slots spell bar.
http://www.eqinterface.com/download...nfo.php?id=5608
------------------------------------------------------------------
TARGET : defiant target ring ( 6th page ).

http://www.eqinterface.com/download...nfo.php?id=3559
the 2nd link is smaller , but....don't have the ooc timer.
------------------------------------------------------------------

MY small EQ button don't work anymore,i had (small eq button w/no station button ), was very small and i liked it a lot but it don't work anymore with the august 15 patch ..............

PS: for the other pieces missing, like buff and effect or group or maP , you can check for one by yourself ( it s pretty easy ,i suck at computer and can do my own ui doing this ). (i found mine from some other complete ui's )

when you want to try some new ui and check if they work,you can create an new folder (or many ) into your EQ / UIFILES .
and can name it like :
test1 , test2 , test 3 ect , you can copy the one you already have into one and try a ui item you would like to see if it work or how it look.

sometime i check the the complete UI that other have and see if something there i could like . I AM LOOKING ATM FOR A ""TINY" SC/EQ button (without the SC ) , i didn;t find it yet who was small enough at that resolution.

so here and there i am looking into complete set and looking for ( EQUI_MAINWND ) and take only this and try it to see if it fit for me.

so into my eq folder i made ( EX : test1 ) i only put this and from the game i try it if it work and i like it..

for any other ui pieces just check for the appropriate ( type : xml document )

like spell bar would be : equi_castspellwnd
player window = equi_playerwnd
buff and effect = equi_buffwindow
potion = equi_potionbeltwnd ect.

what i like doing this , is when we got a patch and we need to change our ui and need to rely on other to ""fix"" their ui.
well , i save the different ui piece that i have (desktop / folder ) or storage key . and i usually "fix" my ui in about 30 sec, ( copy / paste ) in a new folder (eq/uifiles ) and copy them there.....
(work usually like 90 % for me ), the august 15 patch it didn't work, so i tried all the pieces i had to see wich one was not working and it was the EQ/SC button ( all others were working ), that 's why atm my ui is the same as before (minus that one that i try to find a replacement ).

hope it work for you like it work well for me ............. since no more ( or few ) using that resolution

PS: btw, when i log into EQ , i got the red message (since many years ) "" your MXL files are not compatible with current everquest files , blah blah blah,,,but it work good anyway .
