Well, Qwinn spotted a possible bug with bigger fonts, which was caused because of some strange text scrolling function of the game. The logical solution was to increase the size of the dialog box. To tell you the truth this has been bugging me for a long time. A bigger dialog window would be a blessing since it would make the reading experience much better, especially since PST has tons of reading.

Unfortunately there was an annoying glitch when I tried to increase the height of the dialog window. But then, suddenly, taplonaplo ex machina came and spotted a code line in Bigg's mod that did the trick. :YAY: So, now we can have a bigger (and taller) dialog window and also forget about any bugs. I believe the new window greatly increases reading experience in PST and let's not forget that the original text window in 640x480 took a big portion of the screen. Here it is :

1024x768:

1680x1050:



Due to the bigger window I'm now offering a new bigger font size (120% bigger). Great for high resolutions :



I've also revamped the invetory screen for resolutions smaller than 1280x720 to avoid certain tooltip flickering problems.
Because of the new changes, the UI will no longer support resolutions below 800x600 (but I don't think anyone would need them anyway)

This will hopefully be the last update.

I just saw that there's an old mod by platter that changes the appearance of TNO to that of him wearing the dustman robes. Since there has been much demand from people to be able to change TNO's appearance, maybe you could introduce a tweak that will let you wear the dustman robes outside the mortuary ? Without being able to pass as a dustman of course. Platter's mod only edits the resdata.ini so this probably just changes TNO's appearance without actually wearing the robes. It would be better if you could wear the robes anytime you wanted.

Just a suggestion. I know that you're on crunch time for the release of the new versions.

Merry Christmas everyone !

The new version of the UI is finally here. Now the mod supports ALL resolutions and also offers bigger fonts for most language versions. The bigger fonts are 100% better than the ones in the previous versions of the mod and I consider them even better than the original. The mod has been tested for most standard resolutions up to 1920x1080 but really there's no reason why it shouldn't work for any given resolution, even custom ones. Nevertheless, let me know if it works for you, especially with some notebook/laptop resolutions. Also, I'd really like some feedback from anyone that can test it in resolutions equal or higher than 2560x2048 (eyefinity anyone ?).



You want eye candy ? Here is a video demonstration of the mod : http://www.youtube.c...h?v=4GejCUObcfA



This will probably be the last version of the UI, except for any possible bug-fixes/tweaks. I want to thank all the people that helped me with this here in SHS and in RPGcodex and especially Taplonaplo, The Vanished One, Qwinn and Scient.





EDIT: The new Fonts support English, German, Italian, French, Spanish, Polish , Hungarian , Russian and Czech. (For Czech just choose the polish fonts)

EDIT2: There is an issue that can appear if you're using the bigger fonts with resolutions smaller than 1280x720. Since the UI uses the default sized dialog box in those resolutions, a bug may happen that will get you stuck in dialog. If this happens just uninstall the fonts and you'll be ok. I'm currently working on a new version that will address these problems. If any of these issues appear in your game please let me know.

...With support for ALL resolutions, bigger fonts for most languages and other goodies

It will be released on the 28th in the 3rd day of the "12 days of Christmas" event. (Lady of Pain wishing)

So... stay tuned !
