hai, i was just wondering if you guys think it would be possible to texmod gw2 ui for gw1, we got quite a few screens of UI from 2nd game already, ofcourse not eveything would be possible like diablo like hp bar but the rest shouldnt be so hard right? Im actually kinda surprised there isnt any mod like this already. I would soo love to have some more fantasy like UI for gw1 i hate that unreal torunament like ui gw has now.

Do you mean using Texmod like when you use it for Cartography title ?

If so, Of course there will.
People that are pro on photoshop can simply do some, It's not that hard :3!

u can change only textures like color of skills etc
u cant change position of parts of ui (for example u cant make some skills at one skill bar and some at second one)

Are you saying you can't move around the UI? There are sure to implement the same thing as in guild wars 1, being able to move around the compass or party window, etc.

(I might have read wrong of what you said though...)

Using texmod, you can't actually modificate the UI, only its looks. So yeah, you could change the skills' icons or show Livia's boobs, but you won't be able to get four skills on the left, four skill on the right, and a big orb of health in between. You would have to be able to split the skillbar in two using the in-game options.
Making something GW2-like should be possible, though, keeping all limitations of the current UI in mind.

No. Aside from the fact that you're asking for something beyond texmod's functionality, GW2 is expected to use DirectX10, which means Texmod may not work at all.

Gaile Gray said that DirectX 10 would be supported but not required, meaning DirectX 9 will probably be supported. Granted, it was a long time ago(source). She has mentioned a number of times that WinXP would be supported for GW2.
