Default "Defiance" A New UI for RoF2 Clients

Created a new UI for ROF2 clients. The UI is designed for 4K and ultra-wide resolutions. I will probably look at adding an alternative patch containing smaller versions of some of the windows that will work better on lower resolutions.

Hope you guys enjoy.

Looks clean! Need one for people my age with bigger elements, I can't read those text/numbers on a 43" UHD!

In the screen shots the UI elements are still tiny. Do you have screenshots of this at 1440 or 4K?

The screenshots don't do it justice. They was taken at 3840 x 2160, however EQInterface displays them at 1920 x 1080 and it makes the UI look a lot smaller than it actually is. All the important windows (buff/song windows, spell bar, target window and group window) are all enlarged.

These screenshots should looks better if your viewing on a 4K screen.

As a user, the spell gem text is about the ideal size I'd want other text, including stats etc on the character info panel. I'd find clicking on items and buttons of that size to be challenging as well, large screen = high mouse speed. I think you could comfortably go 4x the size on the character info/inventory/button panels and it would be great from a useability perspective.

Thanks for the feedback jsr. I'll look into those options in the future. The stats window won't be a problem. The inventory window is actually straight from the "TegweyenUI" and is fairly complex so I brushed over it without making much change. I'll take another look at it after I finish making some alternative patches for 1080P users. Got some friends waiting on this patch because some elements are currently just too large for them.

There's not a ton of options for UIs on RoF2 so it's nice to see something new.

Nice work!
