It "fits", but it doesn't stretch. I want it to stretch properly to the resolution I set. The UI is always 800x600 resolution even when using higher resolutions for the client, so I have some random free space at the bottom corners. How can I change that if at all?

Unfortunately, with the current rendering system the game uses, it is impossible to stretch images. And well, even if it was possible, it would just look damn ugly and full of big pixels, better as it is atm tbh.

If some one creates a custom UI, Can they upload a zip folder to the forums to share?

Of course, why not?

Just beware of what files you are replacing in your folders. Use at your own risk....

Evil minded people, like myself, may slip in a sprite hack or something, just to get people banned (Y)

Why not simply recreate the UI for each resolution?

@Ipwn : Yes, you are free to share it with anyone.

@täisdibla : Because that would take a lot of time. Plus, the resolution aren't pre-set in the code, the game take the resolutions your screen can handle.

With this new UI system, is it possible to change the keybindings for moving the screen?
Like normally it is done with the arrow keys, but I would like to change that to aswd if possible.

Anybody created a custom UI yet? I messed around with it a little bit, but found that with the minimal changes you can add/do aren't worth the effort.
