ZAM and MMOUI Launch Rift User Interface Site

Now that Addons are officially coming to Rift, we're proud to announce the launch of RiftUI!

A few days ago, Trion Worlds confirmed that Addons are coming to Rift and that the Addons API has recently been released on the Public Test Shard. To coincide with the news, the ZAM Network and the MMOUI team are proud to announce the launch of RiftUI! If you prefer a URL, it's simply http://www.riftui.com.

The RiftUI team is comprised of the same people who brought you EQInterface, WoWInterface, EQ2Interface, LoTROInterface and more. If you're familiar with those sites, then you know what types of features you can expect to find at RiftUI. Basically, the site gives you a safe place to download and organize Addons, as well as upload your own interface.

Keep reading after the jump for a full list of RiftUI's features. Also, feel free to introduce yourself in their forums and join the team in IRC to discuss your Rift Addon ideas!


RiftUI Site Features:

  • Downloads – A well organized safe downloads area for all to browse, search and download.
  • Favorites list * – Add an interface to your favorites list so you can keep track of your favorites with the option of a webpage list, rss feed and email notification when your favorite interfaces are updated.
  • Comments * – Add comments to interfaces in our download area. You can also receive email notification on newly posted comments on interfaces you are tracking comments on.
  • Ratings * – Rate interfaces you have downloaded.
  • Download CP * – Options to configure and change default settings of our download area. Also an entire download history of what you downloaded.
  • Uploads * – Interface authors have the ability to easily upload their interface to our database and update it for future changes. Archives are kept every time you make an update so your old versions aren’t lost.
  • Portals * – Interface Authors that have interfaces available for download in our database will be given access to create their own portal (your_username.riftui.com) so that their users can receive even more information about their interfaces . The portal includes bug tracking, feature tracking, news, custom pages, custom menu links all with rss feeds and a few other things.
  • SVN * - An online version control system which aids in your development of an addon and its history of stable (and unstable, or even branched) versions.
  • Forums * – Ability to post in our forums, attach files, use private message system.
  • RSS – Tons of rss feeds all over the site.
  • And much more…

Basically all the features you are familiar with on our other interface sites.

We are working on ...

  • RiftUI API Wiki - will be added asap over the next few days
  • New Rift-style Icons for the Download Categories
  • Site Colouring more appropriate for Rift
  • Changing the info in the appropriate FAQs as we get more knowledge from Trion about how this is all going to work
  • more as it becomes needed

... we just didn't want to delay the opening of the site for those things, as they are minor items that can be dealt with accordingly.

As you'll notice, we have a number of generalized download categories already set up, but we can and will adjust those as we find out more from Trion on what they will be allowing. Also, if you find any bugs, or have any suggestions, comments or feedback, please don't hesitate to use our Site Feedback Forum.
