Doubt CCP knows their UI enough to even open it up. Can't release the API or create dev tools if you don't know it well enough to do so.

Fair point, but seeing they have (or so they say) reworked the basecodes for the UI sometime ago, this shouldn't be the case. Unless, they haven't thought of this before and now it's too late to modify them.

The only thing i REALLY wish CCP would do is to make EVE have a extended window mode(like in windows) with multiple different sized monitors. That way you can have your ship on the big screen with its circle ui thing while having overview/scanner/chat channels and other windows on the other.
Eyefinity is not the same.

Example: I mean having Photoshop maximized on one screen and still being able to drag it's pallets and whatnot on the other screen.

Was Carbon that they added. However I'am not sure if they have fully rolled out all the features of it, or converted everything over. However they didn't keep much documentation on the old coding so it wouldn't surprised me if they didn't for Carbon.

Think it was Warhammer or Rift you could customize a bit by sliding the windows around to make it how ever you liked the layout to look and size it.

EQ and EQ2 had modable UIs first. Stop with the wow-****.


I doubt anyone's ever played those. P


I did.

And without a doubt in time UI's affect peoples ability to play better. I like the level playing field of a default UI. The last thing I want to see when joining a fleet is "if you don't have DBM GTFO"

hilarious to move it and not say a word about why it is how it is, i know you like to hear us talk but we like to hear you talk too.

We are our own worst enemy.
