Shadowfox's Pixel Perfect UI
by Shadowfox/EQSanctum
Background for the galaxy map is an actual hubble telescope picture of the andromeda galaxy

Well the day has finally come.
Based loosely on tukui and Elvui for World Of Warcraft, the idea was to have a single pixel edged bordered and borderless UI.
Based on the work done by Shemploo, I worked originally within the base UI texture file alone. When I started with his and compared it to the shipped original it occured to me exactly how much work Shemploo had done and how much time it took. After hours and hours of work I finally came to what I thought best represented what I was after.
Shown in the picture below is a couple of changes. One, the pixel perfect UI comes with KayLiaah's templates installed. I felt this would be a serious crime to not include them.
Second and most importantly there are two versions. One with Taanab and one without.
If you are a server admin and would like this map modified to suit your server's planet scheme, let me know. I'd be happy to make the custom changes.

Just extract the zip to your SWGEmu folder.
Note This mod will put folders with some files in the game directory
that will be used by the game. No actual SWG game files will be
overwritten.

FAQ -
- Why is my map tiling?
The original SWGEmu map sizes are 1024x1024. If you are using, or have installed something like Sytner's V2 maps. They are different sizes and will tile. If you are using the Sytner maps, on my website are alternative files for Sytner's map changes. - Are you going to fix the issue I personally have with something inside of the UI I don't like or make changes for me specifically?
No. I don't have time to address everyone's needs specifically. However, if you can come up with a suitable idea that would peak everyone's interest please let me know. I have no problem doing a new project.
Bugs? -
- None, so far. (community window has weird resize issue with window tab spacing. It's not technically a bug, but something my OCD will make me fix at some point in the future)
- Combat Queue is transparent - hard to move/resize
- Chat arrows to cycle chat tabs are transparent - still clickable/hard to move
- Chat tab backgrounds are transparent unless selected
- Background of group members is transparent - hard to move/resize
- World map collapse indicator is bothersome to some people
- New waypoint arrows are too small
- Close window button is too small/not an X/doesnt look like a close window
- Window buttons, like showing your character in inventory seems too small
- Options button panel/wrench icon has black side borders
- The login screen is blue on login and doesn;t keep "my" color - I have no control over that

I don't care if you use or alter this. Just give me credit the work I have put in it.
