    Default New SC2 UI customization


    SC2 UI Changer

    Similar to overlay function, that many streamers using via Xplit, this very small programm (made by Anton_K) allows you to modify ingame UI without altering or modifying ingame resources! You must change your StarCraft 2 to Fullscreen (Windowed) mode and it will work properly.

    How it looks ingame with some new skins, like new Terran one or Zerg from topic "BroodWar Zerg UI skin".


    How it works

    After launching program, you will see small SCII icon. Right-clicking it opens menu, where you can select skin. Just select any transparent PNG file and it will show that picture over all windows.

    SC2 UI Changer supports some hotkeys

    Ctrl+Alt+S - select skin window. Opens window, where you can select any skin via Explorer
    Ctrl+Alt+A - activate/deactivate skin overlay

    System requirements:
    - Windows XP SP2 or later (tested on Windows 7)
    - If you have an error when launching, install this http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/downl...s.aspx?id=5555
    - Minimum size of image is 1024x768

    Known issues
    - Sometimes when you're alt-tabing, skin can dissapear. This bug can be fixed by turning skin on/off

    Plans for next releases
    - Windowed mode support
    - Auto activation/deactivation when game launches or ends

    While its not attached directly to SC2, is there anyway this could be used to increase ones game performance as a third party program and thus give Blizzard grounds to ban accounts if they found out you were using it?

    It can not increase or change something in game, it's just picture over all windows.

    If you're changed SC2 screen-mode to Fullscreen(Windowed) and you will see Skype notifications, should Blizzard ban you for seeing that notification too?

    Or if you're streamer that using Xplit? There are same overlays and different screen scenes too
