    Default New Hp/Sp Bar

    Would it be possible to get a toggle on the new hp/sp bar to return it to the old one (like the toggle for the focus orb). I for one don't have very much space on my screen so i would rather a smaller one then the new larger one with the character portrait.

    For those who have not seen the new hp/sp ba here it is

    You can toggle the portrait in the Settings menu in Options.

    I like it, not gotten on to Llama yet could you put some pictures of what each of the settings looks like? I think no portrait with %s should look pretty nice, the new HP SP bar is much cleaner than the old one if I remember right. (using a custom UI so don't really remember )

    Here's the No portrait only %'s

    Here's Portrait with both %'s and values:

    The problem is that the large circle dosn't go away when you take off the portrait it just replaces it with a small class icon kinda oddly sitting in the middle of the circle

    What is your resolution set at by chance?

    Bah yeah you're right. Was hoping it would get rid of the picture and make it a box. Circle it self should definitely go away if you take off portrait. Kinda sad at the % as well, was hoping for some lines in there too. However maybe straight % is better. Still better than what we currently have IMO, just get rid of the giant circle if you toggle Portrait off and I think this will be a very nice improvement.

    The portrait sticking around if you toggle Portrait off is a bug.

    So the portrait is a bug but what about the rest of it such as:

    -12 man raids only showing 10 folks
    -Ki amount overlapping the Sp amount instead of separate bars
    -Percentages and HP/SP being too large to cause overlap of the class icon.

    Are these bugs also or WAI?

    On a side note the moving platforms are a win.

    Add "removal of autoattack button" to the list of bugs or WAI

    Good to know. I know LOTRO uses the character portrait by health bars, but DDO's own focus orbs are a bit too...busy and the character's themselves set too far away to see them decently.

    I'll probably turn it off just to reduce clutter.

    The portrait circle also doesn't go away if you toggle ctrl-z, as I did here, when attempting to take a screenshot.

    huh? Artwork by Yalthoon?

    As for the big circle... DO NOT WANT. Bug report it and lets see if we can't force the change.

    Why would I want to see what my character looks like or what class they are or what level they are? Turbine, don't you think I would know given that... you know... it's my character?

    Definitely add an option to turn that ugly circle off

    Yea, they give you a small one like this

    http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images...hot00004z.jpg/

    (Much more blackbird compatible but no auto attack, must put on hotbar)

    but it makes the other party bars spawn off of it, so it ends up looking like this in party

    http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images...hot00005c.jpg/

    It actually takes up less space going side to side, but is vertically quite a bit longer.

    You just have to put your small bar wherever you want your party members to show up.

    Ugh... I hate the way most of my characters look in the focus orb. They're oddly distorted somehow. At least I don't usually have them sitting there; now it's either that or a ridiculous looking class icon.

    Gotta feel sorry for Half-elf players. As ugly has Helves look in person, they look downright terrible in focus orbs. Their left eye gets glossed over somehow.

    Bizarre, unnecessary change, in my opinion.

    Any pics of you in group? Does the group symbols look different? That large focus orb took the place of the attack icon no?

    Lose the giant circle or make it toggle off and on, for the love of all that's unholy.

    It's a hideous waste of my precious screen space. I like clean, steamlined, simple interface most times, with everything out of the way but easily accessible.

    If you want to make big gaudy stuff, give us the option to not use it, please.
