Yea, a screen would be nice LOL. I have like 7 lines in my Hud, so not sure what this would look like. Sure, i can try it, but hey...I am lazy. 8)

the thing i hate about patch day is having to reload an old UI cause all the labels are screwed, at least now i can find a nice Standard UI that works all the time and use a good HUD like this one, that way i have a UI i like and is the same patch days and not :)

This looks awesome /applaud

However I have a tiny question... Does this mean a significant lower FPS or isn't it noticeable at all?

Wow, no kidding. Excellent job. This does eliminate most of the UI clutter IMHO.

Excellent work and use of previous code here done by others.

What I like most about it is that it would allow me to pretty much remove all unnecessary windows giving me more "breathing" space on my screen. Hell, you can even totally turn off the window (F10) and have pretty much everything you want and need except for chat.

I do believe I'll be playing around with this to make it my default so that I can minimalize my desktop to almost nothing but chat windows, hotkeys, and inventory, bank, containers and combine windows.

Again, Excellent job Drum!
Fuck writing MQ2 macros. Go with IS scripts; IS Rules!

Holy Shitake Mushrooms! I don't think I'm going to use this (I like my UI as it is), but that's an incredible piece of work. Awesome job.

This hud is awesome. I think I may just go back to the default UI and turn all the windows off. Very very nice.

The only thing I'd suggest to finish out the player info portion would be to add the current state of your character (Sit/Stand/Feign/etc)

wow. all i can say is beautiful. one question though, would it be possible to make it so detrimental spells show up in red, so they catch your eye easier?
