The good old fashioned functional UI

So anywho, i acknowledge that there's going to be a huge difference of opinion, and that there's two camps of folks in the UI department, Those who long wistfully for SH3, and those ready to try something new and move forward.

Nostalgia and resistance to change pretty much sums it up for me!

Duci, the thing is, the new UI is in my way. I dont' need the bazillion flashing indicators all over the place, nor do I need most of the junk in the upper-right corner (TC controls). Command accesibility? Most of it is missing completely. I'm a little surprised to see you making this argument.

I agree with where I think it is you're going with this, but SH5's stock UI is not it, IMHO.
