Here's mine:

I like the idea of changing the compass to bottom right though, so I'm thinking of trying that next.

Haha, that's pretty cool. How much effort did it take to pose so the wings looked like they were yours?

Dumb Quixote · May 25, 2005, 05:34 PM // 17:34

Surprisingly little effort... I love how mobile the camera angle is for GW.

Fraps puts the FPS in numeric format only in one of the corners, that is an in-game FPS/byte counter... There's a command for it, but I can't remember what it is, at the moment (I used it during one of the early BWE's).

yeah, i've been wondering too. And it's not fraps or anything, it's in the guild wars font. So it has to be some command. and its not /fps

I have an interface question: Is it possible to totally get rid of the weapon slot? I never use more than one weapon or have to switch between them quickly so it's just an extraneous piece of GUI.

CatLady · May 29, 2005, 01:34 AM // 01:34

Yes, I don't have mine showing. You just uncheck it's checkbox, like for the other options listed, and shove it's 'outline' to some unused corner.
In-game, you'll never see it.

my interface setup - tweaked it a bit after staring to use the -perf option:

I have a question. Are we able to reconfigure the commands necessary to switch chats? I cannot tell you how annoying I find the chat system in this game. Requiring that I hit shift+key (# or @, etc) makes it impossible for me to easily glide through chat. I would much prefer a system whereby I can hit /g to talk in guild or /p to talk in party (aka EQ or WoW-based chat). Any tips??

Ollj · May 29, 2005, 07:44 PM // 19:44

Im playing guildwars with 600mhz. Could do in higher resolutions but prefer the smallest one.
Due to limitations I optimized the minimalistic "Real time stratrgy type" interface:

- Big Spell buttuns, not far from party members (healing low enchantments high)!
- Health, Energy and target aim always in sight, especially when low, but not distracting the image!
- Tiny minimap with all other buttons next to it, and the exp-bar nicely hidden!
- huge space for text chat even on the smallesst resolution.
- Upkeep and Skill nicely placed just right next to were it belongs to.
Klicking trough this is just fun.

What is perf and how do you use it?

Teufel Eldritch · May 30, 2005, 09:26 AM // 09:26

This is mine. I run my screen rez at 1600x1200 with HUD size set to Small. This set up works for me rather well as I am a healing Necro & have easy mouse access to my Spell Bag, the Party window & the Target box.

Numa Pompilius · May 30, 2005, 08:03 PM // 20:03

I've got a question... You can click-and-drag stuff out from the menues and they become buttons on the screen - but how do you remove them again?
Specifically I've got 'options' as a button on screen, and would like to remove it.

Acheus Lokine · May 30, 2005, 10:13 PM // 22:13

Just drag them back to the "Menu" button.

add it (-perf) to the shortcut target and it will show you the triangle/FPS/Bytes/sec counter

Dannzzigg · Jun 02, 2005, 12:37 PM // 12:37

Here's my layout.

I find that keeping everything small enough not to block things, yet big enough to see, combined with keeping things in one location works very well for me. I kept the larger size for conditions on me, as I seem to not notice when I have Empathy or some other hex cast on me when the icons are smaller. Bad news for a warrior, eh?

I'm also using a Nostromo n52, and I don't know how I ever played without it.

Echo Eternal · Jun 02, 2005, 09:19 PM // 21:19

My GW Interface. I basically like having my stuff mostly together in one area, and I grew used to having groups and spells organized on the right-hand side of my screen.

balinor limad · Jun 03, 2005, 12:14 AM // 00:14

Good idea i like it ignotus

=HT=Gnard_Smasha · Jun 03, 2005, 02:48 PM // 14:48

How do you manage to take a screenshot without everything in the way? If I just want a ss of me and my guildmates, yet I don't want the boxes and the rest of the GUI cluttering it up, is that possible?

BTW, the answer may be in this thread somewhere, but I can't find it, and the search function is almost useless for me.
