I personally really like the update and it made me really excited that the admins changed the look of transformice to something more fresh! c:
The colors are cool too and as well as @Magicalorb said it looks more friendly now which makes me want to play more ahahah! 8D
It will be cool to see @Awesomehobo's idea in action though, like a button to open a list and be able to change to the old theme (for this whole negativity of the update to stop and if, in case, people are bored with the new layout and nostalgia strikes, to be able to change back), a variety of other pre-made themes from the staff or even make your own and upload them to use them yourself/share them or something like that, I really like that idea since I love customization! ;V;
Would totally love to see something like that but overall great update! ✌

I dont like for another reason:
When you're an international room Example: room *vanilla or *#utility
You can't talk on the cafe for buy or sell event pieces >:(

That's unrelated, that's possibly a fix to a bug that allowed users to post in communities they weren't a part of.

Usually i prefer sell or buy pieces on my tribe to avoid the spam and no causing troubles, but i hate this problem for the filters ;-;

I have a chinese-century-egg-eaten-by-aehnss feeling that TFM is becoming overloaded by atelier-801-members-love-it-themselves-only features and fans would throw a "RIP: TFM 200X - 2015" moment to the Cornucopia of Atelier801...

Planner of Atelier 801, please change it into its old form of the most friendly update version please... ...for the huge fans of yours...
If TFM dies, we all turn back to 'Happiness: 0 / 100'...
Why are you doing this...
Really? Is that how much you dislike our pre-favourite game rather to rethrowing it off a useless staircase?...
You're literally killing it from making us all happy... ...am I reading the situation correctly?...
Maybe you're just getting a kick out of it... I don't know anymore...
We just wanted us to get along...
But I guess that was too much to ask...
It looks like you wanted to make a choice after all...
Well this one is yours...

what the hell are you even saying

"atelier801 members love it only" uhhh i can think of a lot of updates they tried and then reversed or worked on making better because of public outcry. or did you conveniently forget those?

Hold shift and press enter. This game is steam ready.

#tfmSteamReady2015

Tig do you ever test things before you implement them?

(also this is quite ugly it stands out too much)

Typical half assed update imo.

Big chat "integration":

Left scrollbar is brown, right ones are blue:

Ugly chat tabs:

Menus are still blue:

Shaman objects & consumables not centered on the board:

Map editor still looks the same:

Except when you validate a map, making it switch to the new UI with smooth integration of buttons:

Shop still looks the same, same for tribe, friends, font selection, options window:

Low contrast on text:

Ugly bold font on player list, low contrast for numbers, and a blue scrollbar:

Descenders in names are cut off in the list:

Really? JPG fragments? At least use some png or jpg with less compression:

Yeah fullscreen is the ugliest thing ever now.
If you create a "new interface" that is just a simple picture put on top of the old things (you can even see it loading when you start the game) at least give us an option to disable it.

On another note, which is probably too late now because why not just leave this ugly overlay in game if it already is, why didn't they go the way they did for the shaman window:

They used the same design also for the new skilltree window and the inventory. The simple borders and the shading of blue is way less intrusive than this weird wooden overlay. That should have been the way for a holistic UI design. Instead, we get like 3 - 4 different kinds of design with different buttons and backgrounds.

I'm really not a fan of this new update, not only is it even more inconsistent with the rest of the interfaces, but the colour scheme at least worked before and now it really doesn't :(

I'd much rather have kept the old interface style but make all of the different windows and buttons keep the same bordering/bevel/emboss rather than having 5 different styles (now 6) around in different places.

The new UI is beautiful and it fits the theme and atmosphere of the game perfectly, BUT it makes things even more inconsistent as the menus and windows are still using the same blueish color.

It would be nice if the whole UI was changed isntead of just the top bar and chat. Also, as some people said, an option to turn the new UI on/off or change between themes/skins would awesome.

jpg fragments im laughing

What are you laughing about?

The whole overlay consists of 4 images. 2 for the top and 2 for the bottom.
Both top and bottom have each 1 jpg image and one png image. A jpg for the solid stuff and a transparent png for the leaves etc, the things that are reaching into the space where you play. All 4 together take up about 20 kB. Putting them all together in one large transparent png would make it about 70 kB. I think 50 kB more is justifiable for good graphics.

I can only hope you are laughing about the jpg fragments, because that's all they are, laughable

epifistu a dit :

long list of things wrong with the interface

You forgot the color scheme of the game itself, which remains the same as the old interface's.
Unless the in-game backgrounds are changed to the same hideous orange glowy mess that the new interface is, it will continue looking ridiculously out of place.

Ah yeah; I'm laughing at the fact that whoever did the art didn't think of it. Unless you save .jpg in the highest quality (which even then you shouldn't professionally), it's gonna be crappy. I don't know why they didn't think of it. It's laughable, and at the same time just sad.

Shadowwinter a dit :

It gives a warmer feeling to the game in my opinion but I feel like the UI was only updated because of the up coming steam release.

WHAT?! JUST CUZ ITS COMING TO STEAM, DOESNT MEAN THEY CHANGE EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!! PEOPLE WONT STOP PLAYING THIS YOU KNOW!!! I remember the first time i played i enjoyed it so much. now its all complicated and blaargh.

I don't care if it's ugly or not, if it lags, in my opinion, they should make an option to switch it back since like half players haven't liked it. Just yesterday my lag was low and now suddenly it raises. And yes I have tried other browsers and standalone stop answering with that.

It's more Transformice themed, but I don't like it much. And with some of the blue still left (like when you click on menu) it's even worse. I can get along with relics and badges but this? No.

In other words:

IT'S UGLY

(Sorry for the huge font)

New name should be Shitformice

While I love the art style of this new interface look, the colors clash almost everywhere. :x I haven't logged on yet so I'm not sure what it feels like playing with it, but looking at all these images I can agree with what's mostly been said.

I was kind of hoping for a reorganization/remodel(?) of the interface if that's still being worked on/planned

I thought making an awful user interface even worse wasn't possible...I was wrong
