About

From the README

A complete, hand-painted interface replacement inspired by Guild Wars 2. Modular: turn off any part you don't need, the rest stays intact.

GW2 UI overview

Tired of a UI that looks like a spreadsheet? GW2 UI replaces the default interface with hand-painted art, clean frames and smooth animations - so you look at the game world again, not at boxes. Install it, log in, play. Everything is set up and ready.

Runs on: Retail (Midnight) · World of Warcraft: Forever · Mists of Pandaria Classic · Wrath of the Lich King Classic · The Burning Crusade Classic · Classic Era, Season of Discovery, Hardcore and Anniversary

WHY GW2 UI?

  • Plug and play - no profiles to import, no addons to combine. One install gives you HUD, unit frames, bags, quest tracker, character window and more.
  • Hand-made, not a template - every texture is painted and every window is built for this UI, with the look of Guild Wars 2.
  • Plays well with your addons - every module can be turned off. Keep your favorite bag, raid frame or chat addon and use GW2 UI for the rest.
  • One UI for every version of WoW - the same look from Classic Era to Midnight, updated with every patch since 2017.
  • Ready for Midnight - class powers, auras and the dynamic HUD work with the new secret aura rules.
  • Gamepad ready - on Forever, GW2 UI switches to its own gamepad layout automatically.
  • In your language - translated into 11 languages.

FAQ

Can I use GW2 UI with other addons?Yes. Turn off the GW2 UI module that the other addon replaces, for example the bags or the raid frames, and both work side by side.

I don't like one part of the UI. Do I have to remove everything?No. Every module can be turned off in /gw2 settings, the Blizzard default takes its place.

How do I move frames?Type /gw2 mh, drag the frames where you want them and click Lock HUD.

Something is broken or missing.Tell us on Discord or open a GitHub issue. /gw2 status shows the system info we need.
