My only criticism is that something changed in the inventory part of the ui between yesterday beta and the big ui change today. It's like all tinier. Text much smaller, exp bar smaller, can barely see it compared to before. The stone color buttons are fine, I can appreciate the sentiment of them, is my inventory problem possibly a resolution issue? Not sure but that drastically changed for me and actually hurts my eyes. New spellbook looks awesome, casting bar is a little disorienting because it's not attached to anything and had the old school look but still cool.

Everything with text just seems smaller and a little less sharp to me, perhaps I'll change resolutions tomorrow and see if it helps.

Yeah, I do think it's important that people can read the text even on a 4k monitor.

Although atm on my 1440p monitor, playing in a window that takes up about 75% of my screen, I can still read the text. I do think it's important that the game can be played on modern systems though, even if supporting a larger resolution and text size isn't classic. I do know some people do own 4k monitors (aka 2160p).

Nice work. Thanks to all involved for the time and effort you put into this. Seeing bits of the blue marble texture is exciting. Someone handed me a weapon and I just stared in awe at the window I almost forgot to click accept. The spellbook looks amazing.

I sit about 7 feet from a 42" monitor/tv 1920 x 1080. I have video mode set to 1920 1080. My vision is 20/20 both eyes but I do need readers for the keyboard [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Some things are difficult to read. I edited the tracking list font to 6 and widened the tracking window in the xml file. I also changed the weight allowance to a larger font 2 instead of 1. After launch will I still be able to make these edits?

The tracking window still had the sorting and player filter options.

The xp gauge still is difficult for me to see but I don't know how to make that larger.

The resist numbers in the inventory seem to be mis-aligned. See the 15 next to the 25. Maybe it's the Yu Gothic UI semibold font I'm using.

The training window for my human druid says Specialize Abjure. Should it say Specialize Abjuration?

I really like the new ui. The only criticism I’d offer is the mouse cursor can blend in at times and the font size seems smaller on the inventory page. Too small, for me.

Yeah this is an issue with the original resolution being so small on our large resolution monitors today.

We are plotting out a roadmap to get everything to a 1:6 scale (or some variation of) of classic size or something. That will be a long road but we will do our best to get everyone with old eyesight happy, and also because hey, things were bigger on our 640 monitors in 1999, so they should be now too if we want hings to feel classic

I have a half drawn cursor. Getting upscaled pixel art is more of an art than a science so it can take anywhere from 10 minuets to 10 hours to get something to feel right once it's been up scaled. This is where the cursor 1:6 scale project is:

I put this one in the game and it actually felt close, so I am going to polish it up and see if it feels good enough. I will try to get this done before the launch of green but cant promise it will get in but will try!

Regarding the f10 key in classic I'm proud to remember finding that key and hating it. Looking forward to changing viewport which I never did in old days and making this more classical.

I think all the clear bags and dialog boxes are what makes the new UI so broken so I am glad to see all the changes. The transparent boxes and bags on top of transparent other windows makes text unreadable.

I'm looking forward to disabling linking in project 1999 green 2.0 circa 2023

Does anyone remember TYPING out stats??? Showing people bags of items in trades so people could rummage through?

Hard work.

I thought maybe changing resolutions would fix the inventory troubles I Was having with text but seems to scale with resolution. That would be my main complaint at this point. Text was bigger yesterday, maybe scaling the inventory window back up somewhat... I'd rather the marble buttons be harder to read than the values like HP AC XP Stats etc.
