Matoyak Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 Well I have finally got FCOM and a couple of other mods running (finally) and I have decided that while the User Interface works quite well for the console version of the game, there is a distinct lack of awesome for the PC UI... I have seen the DarnifiedUI et all and every one I have seen so far are either incompatible with FCOM or require the game resolution being set to 1080 or greater...unfortunately, at that resolution my computer goes into near slideshow mode and the game becomes pretty much unplayable. My question is then: Is there any Darnified-esque User Interface that works at the lower screen resolution settings? If it helps, I use windowed mode rather than full screen...

Vagrant0 Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 DarnUI runs fine in 800 x 600. Not sure why it would be incompatible with FCOM. You did remember to make the font changes to the oblivion.ini file in your mydocuments/games folder right? Other than that, the only other UIs I can think of are DarkUI and MajorJims (probably no longer supported). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptbptb Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 DarnUI runs fine in 800 x 600. Does it? The Darnified UI FAQ includes the following Q: My resolution is < 1024 and ...A: Anything below 1024 will look bad. I suggest using vanilla BTMod, DarkUI, or the default config in this case. I'd like to try DarnUI myself - that was what put me off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It still seems to work, and is mostly readable though (text can look a bit blurry at times (especially console)). Still better than the default UI, and about as good as you're going to find since most graphic mods cater to those with mega graphics cards.

Matoyak Posted December 4, 2009 Author Share Posted December 4, 2009 I've found that things are prettier at the smaller resolutions because it doesn't stretch the low-res textures out...and it happens to run better, so win-win. That said, I just obtained "streamline" and it is pure bliss comparatively. Might try a higher resolution like 800 x 600 or 1080 because of it... Console doesn't appear to work for me. Not sure why. I hit tilde key and nothing happens. I never said DarnUI wasn't compatible with FCOM...not sure where you got that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
