Please give comments, I appreciate it highly
Status: Work in progress
*This version support a resolution of 1680*1050.
You can edit the "SkinDefinition" file to support other resolution but for the timebeeing i will not do it for you.
*Focus and Fervour meter will be added in the future but are turned of at this time.
In my first attempt ever to make a interface i will try to make things as clean and tidy as possible without loosing the LotRO feeling,
there's lots of other interfaces trying too do the same thing but many of them got some futuristic flashbuttons or some other annoying graphic that don't belongs in this game.
So after browsing the web for some time looking for the perfect UI but finally decided to do it myself, couldn't find it, many things needed to change. I have not done everything myself but its often highly customized and I have tried to mention the original work and its authors in the patch-notes below but please respond if you find something missing.
Big thanks to everyone at LotroInterface.com, i couldn't do it without you
At first i will focus on my own needs but will at some time try to make this interface as compatible as possible to everyone.
