A new alpha version (0.10.2 - #94) has been released today.
Unfortunately there still doesn't seem to be a way to get the old UI (with mouse-access to options, play-modes, character screen, etc.) back - an unfortunate design decision in my opinion. Is anyone aware of plans of the developer to re-introduce the old UI (as an option)?
I'm simply an old Daggerfall player, used to the old UI, who doesn't want to change his habits, and wants to play Daggerfall (classic) and Daggerfall Unity in parallel (for example to compare the two versions) without having to use different UI's for the same game. And mainly, I can't enjoy Daggerfall Unity as much as I enjoy Daggerfall Classic when I use the new UI (yes, I can use it, but it's not fun).
Don't tell me the new UI (called "full-screen mode" in classic Daggerfall) is far superior to the old one - this may be true for you, and I wouldn't want you to change your habits, but there are people who feel otherwise, and I've never understood, why the old default UI wasn't even offered as an option.
