Is there a way to resize the UI without changing the game resolution. I would prefer the UI to be much smaller but my game gets to choppy when I go beyond 1024x768.
thanks

I'm pretty sure you can't change the font size of the UI which is what you would need to do to make all the windows smaller but still display
enough text
enough text

I am not at home atm, but I had the same issue. When you login there is a option button and in there is a option to make the resolution smaller and bigger. 1024x768 for example. You should be able to find it there. Hope that helps.

I dont want to change my game resolution. I want my UI smaller like you can in other mmo's without actually changing the game resolution. Im going to assume at this point that it is not possible. Is this something the game dev's can add ??

I is possible, you can complete reshape and change the size of all the UI boxes and font size.
Boxes: any of the boxes can be stretch or shrunk. If you hover your pointer around the edge of a toolbar, box etc you will see that it changes to a pointer that you can move by clicking and holding then resize the box. I find the diagonal approch better.
UI Font size: In the chat area you can resize the font size by holding down the ctrl key and using the mouse scroll wheel to make the font larger or smaller. Also if you do not have a scroll whell on your mouse you can use the < > keys.
I hope any of this helps you

Doh... error... anyways... click options or use CTRL+O and click the chat tab... theres a slider at the top the adjusts the font size for all your chat boxes at the same time... and this method is the only way I have found for the change to still be in effect each time I log.
