I saw a video recently and the person had sharper names a blinking target cursor. the Hp bars were a little different yadda yadda. I tried googling FFXI GUI Skins and only found 1 site but of course it I can't get into it. Anyone got any idea where I can get this?
 
im still tryin to re-find the real gui mods, the one that had a pic of your char in the bottom corner, told what zone you were in, it was super pimped out and looked nothin like these, hell it even made it look like a whole different game
 
Cool. Will download these when i get home. :D

They were just shopped photos posted on the windower forums (and again on KI forums) for an example of what someone wanted the windower Devs to try and do.

Alas thats beyond the realms of just straight UI editing, thats more like breaking the game down physically and re coding it to look in a certain way and to add extra features which have previously been unavailable. It's way too much of a job for most of the Windower Devs.

Atleast for the moment. They haven't even fixed windower macro bugs, doubting this is gonna roll on the scene any time soon.

Yes. You can do it yourself in about 2 hours.
 
I think the latest Brandson GUI update includes a change to the text font. Dar was talking about it last night on Vent, didn't get any screenshots though.

This is from the updated GUI posted <1 week ago.

or whatever you like.

I don't exactly remember, but you find the font .dat, convert it in to a normal gif, edit the font by replacing them, convert it back and replace the old one with the new one. Just rememebr to keep a back up.

A more advanced way, is using a hex editor. Using a hex editor, you could open it in a program like POLutils, copy the .gif image, open it, edit it, save it, open that file in a HEX editor, copy it parts of it, and add it in to the old file through the HEX editor. That's more advanced, but easier to do if you know how.
