I'm very much in favor of forcing the classic stone ui but this just seems anti-fun.

NOT CLASSIC: soloing in a high ZEM dungeon on your twinked out Enchanter alt, easily managing a charmed pet with a pet window, tab-targeting, third-person scroll wheel view and non-spellbook medding.

CLASSIC: wearing full cloth armor and a couple of Derv rings, grouping with a tank in raw hide armor wielding a store-bought Axe, happy to be able to kill anything that moves the XP bar, being awakened from your meditative tranquility by the bone crunching combat noise.

FWIW rogean, I think you're missing 10 inventory buttons:

What I am noticing is when you are in inventory mode, the 10 inventory buttons appear, when you are in meditate mode the 10 inventory buttons appear, but when you are in open world mode, you have access to only 6 buttons:

So how do we handle inventory with this version of the UI?

If I open my inventory window, will taht pop up my 10 slot inventory as well? and perhaps when you open your spell book, it shows that inventory window + bags if it was otherwise not shown, and darkens the screen behind you, giving you your inventory to dig around in while you med.

which I am starting to remember was like how I spent my time as a level 34 mage on live.

100% in favor of the staring at the spell book to med, despite how highly annoying it will be to do this on my casters

this isn't a QoL thing, this is a game mechanic/class balancing thing, if you want the enhanced mana regen you have to sacrafice your in-game awareness, it is a choice casters will have to make

Jibatrik: The reason you see the different number of hotkeys and slightly different windows is because the 6-button screenshots are from the original UI, which had the fullscreen mode with 6 buttons. The 10-button screenshot is the Velious interface.

Does anyone know the story with these UI shots:

[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.][You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

they have more buttons, was this something that was added at the end of Velious or something?

November 16th 2001 is just week's before December 4, 2001 so I guess it was a patch gearing up for Luclin? (does this mean blue gets 10 buttons and green gets 6?)

That same dude has many other screen shots from same era, with only 6 buttons though:

So I dont know anything about that. Im really just curious how they handled when you opened your inventory screen in velious. Anyone remember?
