Fundamental UI

Version: WoD v1.0 RELEASE

by: Shiny <3 [More]

What Is Fundamental UI?

Fundamental UI is based off one simple idea, one of which I am sure many UI builders and designers
always take into consideration, that is to include as much useful information in as little screen space as
possible, it is in essence what minimalism is meant to be and as Da Vinci would put it, the height of
sophistication. However over the years, one UI style has dominated the forefront when it came to
this idea. One we are all very aware of, chat log left, chat log right, action bars middle, minimap top right/left,
Done and dusted, and I can't comment as I also was part of that group that contributed to that UI style taking
center stage.

Fundamental WoD is an attempt to break away from that niche, taking two concept UIs I have worked on
previously and fusing them together to create this rather unique (in comparison to most current UIs) style
of interface whilst still Including well known features which I believe help contribute to effective and
efficient gameplay in any WoW gaming environment.

Installation Guide

OUT OF GAME

1. Download and extract Interface and WTF to desktop.

2. Go to your World of Warcraft directory and remove andback up your old
WTF/Interface Folders.

3. Place the new downloaded Fundamental folders into your WoW Directory.

4. Go into WTF and then into Account and rename "ACCOUNT" to your account name.

5. Go into the newly renamed "ACCOUNT" and Change "Server Name" to your server name.

6. Go into "Server Name" and change "Character Name" to your character's name.

7. Load the game and watch the pretty WoD Cinematic, load out of date addons (not that there
is any!).

8. Login to the character you wish to configure.

IN GAME

1. Type /BT4 go to profiles and copy from profile Addisun

2. Type /Grid2 go to profiles and copy from profile Addisun

3. Type /Raven go to profiles and copy from profile Addisun

4. Whilst In Raven go to Bar groups, select Class Track from the drop down top left,
select buffs along the top tab group below, scroll down to Filter List and add your
own class buffs you wish to track (should already be setup for Prot/Fury Warriors)

5. Type /KuiNamePlates go to profiles and copy from profile Addisun

6. Unlock your chat window and move to the correct area (takes some fiddling)

7. Type /reload

8. Configure your graphics settings again, it should maintain 1920x1080 but all others should
reset to default, same goes for sound.

9. If you're really fussy drag the little AtlasLoot icon around until it's in the top right
corner of the minimap.

Known Bugs/Compatability

1. Breeze is still very much in Beta and can bug out occasionally on certain follower quests

2. Fambags can be a little iffy with its categories from time to time, a simple /reloadui should do the
trick.

Enjoy

It's a separate bar generated and created by the buff addon (which is in use within the entirety of the UI) called Raven.

You won't find a more customizable buff addon around, although it does take a while to get to grips with the options. In this specific UI it's under the bar group "Cool Downs"

You may not have a World of Warcraft Game attached to your account, or you may be logging into a region different from the one you created the account in. If you continue having trouble, please contact Customer Support. I did everything as stated, changed account name in CAPS, server name, character name. Any help would be appreciated.

Need to put this on the main page.

1. Delete config.WTF file (it's inside first WTF folder)
2. Set Resolution to 1920x1080 and UI scale to as small as possible.

Login and enjoy (:

Do you plan on giving them a more defined edge, without making them too dawning if you know what I mean? Also, I was wondering if you could change the button skin on the famBags addon? I know that I couldn't figure out how, and those buttons just don't match with the rest of the UI, they look more like a Blizzard style than anything. One more thing, I was wondering if you'd be skinning the minimap icons in the future? I noticed that it can be done through LUA, using similar code like Aurora Missing Textures mod, and Mirrgui. Aurora is better, but Mirrgui has a border style that seems to fit better with your UI. I notice that you basically are using the standard Aurora style, just changed the fade of color in the in game settings for it. Would you be reskinning that to match the UI better as a whole?

I did work on the unitframes a little early on, using kgpanels and anchoring to provide a more refined edge on them, but due to scale & pixel issues eventually went against using them as background panels and used the stock standard default background, it may be something I look into in the future.

This one's pretty simple, I tried FamBags originally with LifeStep (the main UI button texture) but felt it didn't really follow suit, so I believe went with Caith in the end, to do this simply go into /masque and select addons, and then select fambags and alter that one individually without changing the entirety of the UI, it's not inside Fambags config at all.

In regards to minimap icons I never have them nor use them, I like to remove all unnecessary information and the only one I do use is BugSack and that's only from a developmental view point, everything else should be automated, and if not then I usually know the /command for it anyway.

I'm the furthest thing from LUA savvy so skinning for me is out of the question, I won't be changing much in that respect, and I was unaware that Aurora had in game options, which is something I will look into now I am aware of this, for next release (hopefully before Friday).

This should be possible (and a lot easier to do) once version 1.1 comes out, but that won't be until early/mid November at the earliest (busy schedule ^^)

i dont get why pple have such huge screens just to have like nothin really to look at.

A 24" screen or 23.5" or 1920x1080 resolution (also known as a 1080p resolution) is now the industry average. In the UI world we call "showing absolutely nothing" SRE or Screen Real Estate, how much of the game world you can see, how much of the combat you can see.

The more you can see going on, the more efficient you can be in that scenario. Minimal UI's try to maximise SRE whilst utilising as little space possible to provide all the essential information.

The true brilliance of a good UI is to look good, provide the information you see, and not distract from the beauty and combat aspects of the game that you are playing. This way you can truly maximise your potential within whatever role you select as a player.

This isn't the first time I've been alerted to this problem, and I think it's something to do with DBM try updating to the latest DBM

http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/deadly-boss-mods

and see if that helps! (: Other than that I'm not too sure yet.
