Refined UI (2.0.5)

Switch to this version of RUI if you were using the earlier version, as it offers significantly improved stability and seamless performance. Unlike the previous RUI, which could slow your game by approximately 20% when opening modded tabs, this version ensures a smoother experience.

Refined UI (2.0.5) is a carefully crafted mod designed to enhance Imperator: Rome by providing a more immersive, functional, and streamlined interface. With quality-of-life improvements, enhanced visuals, and gameplay tweaks, RUI ensures a smoother and more enjoyable experience for players.

• Fully Compatible with Invictus: Enjoy seamless gameplay with most features working perfectly.
  
• Dynamic UI Color: UI adapts to match the color of the played nation's coat of arms for a more immersive experience.
  
• Immersive Character Background: Adapts dynamically to reflect the territory the character is currently in.
  
• General UI Improvements: Redesigned character, diplomacy, and province views with improved readability and aesthetics.
  
• New Functionalities: Debug Mode (F11), military unit details (e.g., food capacity), and refined tooltip support.
  
• Immersive Additions: Dynamic nation naming, culturally specific graphics, and HD terrain.
  
• Enhanced Gameplay Insights: Family tree integration, detailed diplomacy features, and refined event displays.
