New interface mod for all 3 part of game
 

Greetings, players! Sorry for my poor english.
I discovered this game 2011, played both 2 campaign twice; i really like.
But game interface is catastrophic, and not found satisfying interface mod. Camera and bigfont mod simple option, i can make better myself, over a few minutes. Hint-mod is very great, but not enough.

Now published a new campaign with new features, and my claim for better interface mod is increased; so i decided to do it myself.

I wrote a program that can read from "ui" files, and show me the interface elements visually with their names. In this way, I was able to edit this files simply, and edit interface-textures with my favorite drawing program.

As well as, some of the game-sounds very disproportionately volume, particularly most of spellsounds. So i started my favorite audio-editor, and i reduced the volume of this sounds.

Merged together this modifications, and placed inside the old interface-hint mod. I adjusted all these, working with previous chapters of the game.

Finally, here is the products:

I hope, this mod will also be useful for other players.

(postscript: sorry, the link is idiot, but work. If any interest is high enough, i'm going to search a better place for this small page and files)

any preview sceenshots of what it looks like?

I'm also interested to see some screen shots first.
