Iksars Beastlord .. ?
I would like some of you geniuses do a good BEAST Iksar oriented UI ..
With the Beast epic 2.0 as a pointer .. and T King style maybe Darklegacy orients (Thats what I use ) ..
I dont know anything about UI writing . But would like to see one like that . If you think it is possible . hehe .
I would try it .

Good start but rather vague. Would help if you gave in some layout ideas for people to work with as to what you feel a good beast UI has and looks like other then just the textures. Since each person will have a different take on the subject.

I played both a SK and a Bst. Although I was never extremely innovative, when I skinned a UI, I had a specific layout I liked for UI's that none of the others seemed to grasp for functionality. For whoever tackles this project, I'm sure such a format/layout would be more than adequate for the needs of this request. Also going by any of the other Bst UI's would probably be equally effective. Going either of these routes would only require skinning for the Iksar look.

Let me say agian .. I am such a noob but love UI's ..
Long time player .. And love the way things are tight and screen filling .
I think skin wise mabe .. something scale like ? .. Epic 2.0 as pointer ..
I like the pet, buffs, and clickies all in the same thing and stays up all the time .. Resolution is not important but I keep mine pretty high 1284 X 1026 I believe .. You know the one I talk about .
Something thats dark and mabe greenish Brown scale's .. ? Hard I know ..
And the target in the middle on top of the bottom stuff .. I like the spell thats verticle but not past the chat windows .. Buff is ok T-King style across the top and mostlly invisable with a grey background ..
The EXP and AA show all the time .. I dont know .. I just think of stuff hehe .
I do like the way Drahka / Tking layt out is ... It is efficient and together .
Any other questions ? ..

http://www.eqinterface.com/download...tnow=1106487812
See if you can take that and greenish brown it up and mabe add the epic 2.0 as a pointer .. And mabe put the Iskar pet on the background of the inventory .. mabe .. And an iksar on the background of the spell book ..
Possiblly evil up the edges of it a bit .
That is my favorite lay out I have ever used .. IT is effecient and easy to use ..
Thanks in advance if you think you can do it heh .

I don't know if anyone remembers this, but back when I released a bunch of spellbars, each were to represent a UI I'd put a lot of effort into. Unfortunately, Animated Steamworks was the only UI that I was able to finish before being contracted. If you look at my Beastlord and Undead spellbars, you can see there is probably a way to combine or alter them in a such a way to attain what you're looking for, both feature sharp edges and curves.
(These spellbars feature animatoins, but the animations are not shown in these images)
Beastlord 'Spirit' Spellbar:

Animated Necromancer 'Undead' Spellbar:

I'd recommend adding lizard-like scales to either one of these using post processing methods, such as a digital tablet and Photoshop.

Wow ! ..
What an honor to see Tking on my post hehe . I am humbled ..
Any .. I cant wait to see it man .. plus .. I do like the beast spell bar by tking .. It just dont fit in the smooth boxed look that the one I use is heh .
I do how ever use your spell gems .. And have tried many of your UI's .
I think you Tking could mabe do something themed towards an Iksar as well ) .
I cant wait to se what the one looks lie Iksared up and greenish brown ..
Also Tking .. Anyway you could work on a pointer for the BST epic 2.0 ? ..
I know you busy with Sigil .. I am watching that sight so much of late ) . Cant wait too see what you guys are doing wth Microsoft money bags ) .. Good luck and I promise to buy the game to try atleast .. heh .
It is the only one that ever caught my attention .. and that is because the original EQ brains are at work on it ..

I am thinking if you put in the right people who made the UI you could post it up and just say you made some adjustments m8 ..
I see a lot of folks doing that ..
I have tried to contact Drahka and seem to not be able to get hold of him/her ..
But if you look around a lot of folks do that .
Thanks for your hard work man .. I cant wait to see how it turnned out .
