I plan to update the main GUI in this update or the next so that it looks a bit nicer, has a more constant look, and finally uses a different set of graphics.

Updated the main post to show what's been done so far

* * *

If you're wondering why it took me 2 days to draw the chat to the screen, I coded it all from scratch instead of copying it from a different engine. This means that some of it is better optimized and also loads the graphics differently.

As a note, I used EFF to make sure I wasn't forgetting different parts (names/variables) so some subs and vars have the same or similar names.

Still working on drawing everything to the screen instead of using picture boxes. So far it's going smoothly, about 1/4-1/3 of the way done with it.

So far the chatbox, hotbar, inventory, and spells are finished (they draw to the screen and you can interact with them properly).

I originally had the wordwrap function set to work with the chatbox but redid the code so it will work with all strings (before all the strings used text boxes that wrapped for you but now I need a sub to).

Item and spell description boxes are finished and looking good. I'll update the sneak peak in the [https://www.eclipseorigins.com/Thread-ER-1-8-1-Upcoming](https://www.eclipseorigins.com/Thread-ER-1-8-1-Upcoming) thread once I do a bit more.
