Well, this is something that should have been implemented with the release of Guild Wars. So my suggestion is: To allow users to save multiple User Interface Settings. (To File or gw.dat)
What are the benefits:
- A: Players that use different Interfaces between PvP and PvE can easily change the UI.
- B: Some of us farmers like to use different interfaces for different builds. (All depends on profession and skills used(enchantments over-lapping the player's horizon line!)
- C: I'm sure there are more benefits. For those that see more benefits please post them on Feedback talk:User/Bermudezis2005/User Interface - Setting Saver and
- I'll be more then happy to place them here! Or you can add it your self but keep A,b,c, etc... list please! ^^
How can this be done:
- A:The coding is not that hard a simple XML parser. To save the settings as XML. (Never seen the GW game engine so how hard it would be to
- implement I don't know. But based on other games engines I've worked with, I've never had problems with implementation.)
- B:You can pack the saved settings to the GW.dat but of course this can lead to huge security problems!
- C:Using the same IO system that the skill template is using will allow users to easily load different settings.
