No no! Just keep doing what you doing, it looks great! If someone will mix something between E3 meditation UI the UI erxv and georgetziotis were working on, we can get something that looks really close!

If I may suggest, can you go for metal-goldish look of icons? Same what is here http://i.imgur.com/paEfBvT.png

tired that colors but with the brownish background dont look so good. maybe try a brighter gold color.

Searching the internet found another UI design concept (didn't see it before) https://www.behance.net/gallery/40776905/Witcher-3UI-Gwint-Redesigned there is a lot of gui pics, some gameplay pics and very old gwent version

The old old UI looked absolutely elegant! Bloody amazing! Just look at that character screen....and those maps! :yawn:

Something must have gone very very wrong for CDPR to end up with the UI we now have....
 
No Title

Would someone try changing the whole map in a style like this?

Kayhan2000 glad you like it!

While the forum was down, I kept working on the hud with a new wolf medallion, moved adrenaline, adjusted slightly toxicity and changed also the quickslots to a similar version of E3 ones.

Here's a pic how my hud is looking right now: http://imgur.com/O7NUWda

Personally I'm looking for a style between E3 and those gorgeous screenshots of the alternative UI, so I'll keep trying to achieve that!

 
Hyadum, MrMoonshoes and erxv, guys, I think we should concentrate more on the E3 2014 UI as a final goal. Findings by Evgdan95 (http://fernandoforeroart.artstation.com/projects/51A2O) and Pr0eliator (https://www.behance.net/gallery/4077...int-Redesigned) while cool are just variations of the current UI (casual as all get out) and Witcher 2-themed UI (which sucked balls then and still is inconvinient for PC players now).

What we were shown on E3 2014 though was completely unlike we have ever seen in a Witcher game and I think should be the ultimate goal to reach - http://imgur.com/a/2NOlX.

P.S. Seeing that Fernando Forero has been a UI artist for 2 1/2 years I think it's safe to say he might have some leftover stuff from E3 2014 period and if he's not under NDA he could probably share it with us.

He most likely is... but it is still worth a try. However stupid it may sound, I'll try to ask him for that.

It's definitely worth a shot. The worst that can happen is that he says no.
 
@VedmakOfOld So while I knew @Hyadum was making great progress working on the hud icons and meditation panel i figured I'd work on the inventory panel.

The first dilema is that the earliest Witcher 3 inventory panel we got actually had a more similar layout to the e3 version than the latest version (description panel on bottom left, Detailed statistics on the right, Simplified inventory categorizations). However I actually prefer the newest versions layout because of the better organization as well as the (even more) detailed statistics panels that appear when you press "c". Also the changes made like the addition of mutations would be gone otherwise which seems like a bad tradeoff for a slight increase in layout similarity.

Due to this minor change in layout while using the current version, it wouldn't look identical but still close enough and to me its more about replicating the vibe than a direct clone (which would be nearly impossible anyway so no big deal)

Another consideration is the fact that the menu has 7 main segments that would take the spots of the tabs at the top of the screen seen in the e3 pic as opposed to 4, also the tabs would more or less be purely cosmetic and not clickable. So you'd have to use "LB/RB" to scroll through them. (Idk the pc keybinds, I use a controller). Again not a deal breaker for me because I care more about aesthetics here, also because it would make literally no difference when using a controller.

I was actually gonna type a lot more explaining minor hurdles/obstacles and possible workarounds but first I'm gonna try a few more things and create a general sketch so I can post a screenshot to make references.

Idk anything about that guy but that would be pretty sweet to see what he has, I've been trying to get the e3 level progress bar
