Button borders

Epixor · 11-01-2009, 01:16 PM

Reinstalled wow and lost the custom button border, does anyone know where i can find customized borders for the ingame buttons such as: bag slots, character interface buttons etc, basicly wow's default button skin modified so no i'm not talking about button facade. I remember it being part of a ui compiliation and it was a folder i had to put in the main wow's directory so not in "interface" or "WTF".

They are either loaded with an addon, or you can put then in a custom format outside of the Addons folder within Interface.

I'm sure it was not a addon, it was just a folder that i picked out from a ui package and had puted it in the wow's directory.

What zero is talking about is using graphics replacements and not addons. You can replace various graphic elements by placing the appropriate .blp files in the interface folder, NOT the addons folder.

This method required no addon coding to function. It isn't very common currently so there aren't any examples I can think of (though I'm sure a few exist) to demonstrate.

This is the only method I'm aware of that works as you describe it. It is possible that the method has changed but I can't rightly say.

I think this is what you are talking about. Extract to your interface folder, NOT to your addons folder.

Thanks susurration, I like it a lot. I was wondering if it uses up any memory or makes any effect on FPS. Also, I noticed Jasje_UI came with this. It's pretty neat and I enjoy the simple/smooth look it gives to the default Blizzard UI.

I've messed with changing these images before, mainly so I didn't have to use an outside source like rActionButtonStyler. However there is a small graphical glitch that I don't know how to correct. When I log in, the action buttons look fine just sitting there. However if I move them around, part of the original icon's border shows through a tad, which is extremely annoying, and for me, makes using these sort of replacement images unusable. I can't help but wonder if there isn't some image that I'm neglecting to replace that is causing this problem.

I've been replacing...

Buttons/UI-Quickslot
UI-Quickslot2
UI-Quickslot-Depress
UI-QuickslotRed
