Seeing how many streamers started customize their UI on streams, I've decided to recreate BroodWar Zerg interface for SC2.

Reminder, how it looks in SC1:BW
+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]


How it looks in SC2 on 1600x900
[image loading]

Here are 2 resolution proportions. If you want other resolutions, just post request here or ask me via PM.


1920x1200 >> 1680x1050 >> 1440x900 >> 1280x800 (16:10)
[image loading]



1920x1080 >> 1600x900 >> 1280x720 (16 : 9)
[image loading]



1600x1200 >> 1024x768 (4 : 3)
[image loading]




* UPDATE *


Here are slighty colorized (with purple elements) and with some creep instead black background. Also zergified block for your nickname and creep-cover to hide command buttons. For 1920x1080, but if you want other resolutions - ask in commentaries.

SC2 UI Changer


Now everyone can use those overlays (and not only streamers for their viewers!). With new SC2 UI Changer you can add overlay for yourself, but your game must be fullscreen-windowed.

More information about that program you can find here:

Very cool! But it needs a slot on the left above the minimap for the game timer.

I want it too, but I don't know tools, that allows to use simply overlay for sc2, not only for streams.

Who knows something useful?

Who know how to use overlay for myself? Is there a program that adds any overlay over any exe file with any picture? Like we had some time ago with build orders overlay.

Well, it's really boring a bit to play now sc2 with simply default zerg UI, when I did that BW remake. Who know overlay program, that adds custom image over exe file?

I think there are protoss ones already. Sure remember White-Ra used one on his stream a while back. Though don't think it's as good as this.

One good thing in SC1:BW protoss UI is that it's less bright and in result less contrast. SC2 protoss Ui is very contrast for me - too bright border and black background. Also in early beta builds of SC2 we saw, that Protoss had a bit different UI with blue background. In my opinion, it was better, than now. Less contrast between content and border and more fits to Protoss style

I will do Terran and Protoss interface overlays later, probably mid summer. But it can be a bit harder

I think you should make any 4:3; preferably 1920x1440 or 1600x1200

That's so cool! Are you going to do the same thing with the Terran BW overlay?

But 4:3 ratio isn't popular... Anyway here it is

[image loading]

9th and 10th unit control groups will be hidden, but I think, most players bind them to other buttons, like mouse buttons under big finger or other

That's so cool! Are you going to do the same thing with the Terran BW overlay?

You can find it in UI changer topic
