I don't like the new Inventory what do you think about it?

[zombies]

it looks pretty similar to the one we have now.

[xxMATTGxx]

Nothing major in terms of the inventory change. I don't mind it :P

[GoldenMerc]

I agree, the inventory looks poor

[iBlueBox]

No search or grouping feature in the inventory yet?

[the.games]

I really don't like the inventory :P.

If they do change this I hope they change the rest of the features so that the designs at least match :P.

[veeim]

We are slowly moving closer to a Volter-free Habbo. The three main things that still need to be changed are the navigator, friends console and the catalogue.

The new inventory looks plain (stripped out the blue unfortunately), and oddly still uses Volter in the "Floor" "Wall" and "Pets" tabs.
Agreeing with @iBlueBox (http://www.habboxforum.com/member.php?u=55921), some much needed features could be added while doing this reskin.

[Tom]

No major changes, don't really find anything overly important so yeah. Doesn't bother me either way tbh, why can't they just bring out the whole Illumina skin/theme at once instead of bit by bit?

Exactly, its like uploading a layout with different images from different versions

[Bails]

No search or grouping feature in the inventory yet?

Yup this.

Inventory needs a search bar or folders such as 'Seats, Rares, Seasonals, Tables'.
Get it done, Habbo.

[Mr-Trainor]

I was never a fan of the blue inventory, and the blue popup boxes, etc, so I think the new inventory looks nice :D.

[Inseriousity.]

BRING BACK THE HAND!

lolol nah I don't mind the inventory but yes a search feature is badly needed! :(

[e5]

Still no 'search' function?

[Daltron]

I like the new skin of the inventory, very slick :o

[Yourgame652]

BRING BACK THE HAND!

I second that! The hand was classic, unique and is a much more 'Habbo-esque' feature than this 'Illuminati' thing will ever be!


We are slowly moving closer to a Volter-free Habbo

I know! :@ WTF Sulake! Seriously?

Answer me this - What the hell do they think they are trying to achieve by getting rid of everything that made Habbo, Habbo! It is a disgrace. Not long ago, Habbo had what we called character, it had charm - IT HAD. It used to have a thriving community, friendly staff, and actually resembled a hotel on the web. The most popular rooms were hangouts and mazes - not boosting rooms and 'auto' games.

When they claimed they would 'bring back old Habbo', I actually believed they had FINALLY seen the light after Paul was ousted, and that they would try to reverse this ongoing madness at long last! But oh no, it was just another meagre appeasement, with love from Finland. Frankly, Im fed up of seeing all the classic features being removed. Where are our public rooms Sulake? What have you done with our yellow console Habbo? I miss the classical yellow and blue homepage, with the articles - It was all inherently Habbo!

When they announced the comeback of HC, I knew I was in for a disappointment - oh how right I was. It somehow feels like they just slapped a great big HC sticker over a VIP label. Habbo Club should be where you get a different gift each month that actually has some value, not this abominable system where you get to choose what gift you will receive - and in the process, destroying any value the new gifts may of had! I don't know what bizarre world the people at Sulake are living in, and I have no idea what fantastic idea they will pull out of the hat next, probably another disappointment - as usual. They have been making their mistakes and it's costing them dearly. Unfortunately, they will never learn - they never have, and they never will. They are too interested in thinking up ways to make as much money from you, while requiring as little effort as possible.

I for one am sick of this! If Volter goes, I will seriously consider going with it.

This is not the Habbo I signed up to in 2005 - I'm standing by my guns!

[MKR&*42]

The old 'big hand' is a very classic and appealing item to older members, but it's simply impractical. Only being able to view 9 different items per page was a pain and never separated furniture into different categories. Trying to add a search function to the hand would also have been even more irritating.

The hand is more visually appealing, but much less practical - I'm sure someone like Plebings; (as a guess) was against any return of it as well.

Oh, as for the first picture, meh looks a tad nicer than the one at the moment.

[auffant1]

Don't really dislike it or like it. No big deal :P.

[RyRy]

No search or grouping feature in the inventory yet?

WAS JUST THINKING THIS. Shame you can't have like "chests" in your inventory to store certain types of furni, or even a sort option to sort by certain categories. Search is a biggie though.

The reason they switched fonts:


During late 2010 it became clear that, as displays become ever-higher in resolution, a single-size pixel typeface would no longer be able to serve Habbo Hotel in all situations. Despite the love we (and some of our users, image from fansite Puhekupla) have for Volter, and the unique history it has with Habbo Hotel, we needed a new scalable font that would be legible on different display devices and resolutions. We also wanted to have the possibility to use text in different sizes for proper typographic contrast and hierarchy. After looking at different options we picked Ubuntu Font Family - a high quality open source outline font optimized for screen typography. It's highly legible on small sizes but scales up easily to headline sizes as well. And it’s freely available from Google Web Fonts.

[Aaron]

Not very fond about inventory.. but sure I guess we'll get used to it when it comes around. :P

[iSherlock]

I expected something better for an inventory re-design...

And the interface changes aren't that major, just some new icons.

I hope someday the whole UI looks like ediootti screenshots.

Or how about returning to the classic layout that served Habbo for years during the peak of it's popularity? Doesn't seem like a bad idea to be honest! (H)

[Mark]

Wish they'd add a search feature to the inventory :(

[Abdicators]

As far as I'm aware, that is not the final iteration of the inventory and will not implemented into live hotels in that fashion. Please remember the sandbox hotel is not for peaking at upcoming Habbo features, and is actually for creating games to be used in the game center.

For those requesting the hand, it is important to note how impractical that thing was. You could only see 9 items at a time, and items did not stack. Imagine you had over 1,000 pieces of Habbo furniture, and the one you wanted was right at the end of the hand. You would have to click the '>>' arrow over 100 times in order to reach that piece of furniture; it is not a good idea.

I am not sure if there is a search feature planned, I do know that they plan to allow you to extend the inventory, so you can see more items at one time.

[Yourgame652]

The reason they switched fonts:

Fine, but they still could have at least kept it for the chat bubbles in rooms, or maybe on the stickies as a lasting reminder of how great Habbo was and just changed everything else. :P

I just find the 'Ubuntu' font very 'un-Habbo' compared to Volter :¬:

Wouldn't it make sense to have an in-game option between choosing the different fonts, consoles and inventory box?

[lawrawrrr]

If Habbo stayed the same as it was when we started playing it would look INCREDIBLY outdated by now. The reason they're bringing things in slowly is so people don't like this sudden *massive* change and are just changing one bit at a time. Makes sense to me...

[Zac.]

No major changes. I don't mind.

[karter]

......I was waiting for a search option for so long why is it not here

Omg that's so cool, never seen that before! Thanks for sharing. As for Volter, they removed it from most things a while ago and explained why (as Matt posted), and they did have good reason.

That is a much better inventory than our current one

[veeim]

Looks like they changed the inventory during the last maintenance break (5 minutes ago).
Don't really like how the scroll bar is thinner.

[Daltron]

The new design for inventory has messed up my ability to trade, not sure if this is happening for everyone :o

[Naythi.]

I have the same problem, my inventory consumes the whole of the window and I can't scroll up or down. It is also impossible to close the window without refreshing the client. You would think they would test these features out, as per usual Habbo fails to impress.

[Nick]

It looks alright. Sucks when someone wants to buy something and trade is broken :(

Yeah it's broken for me as well lmao. I like it, apart from the gigantic glitch....

[Yourgame652]

They actually implemented it.... :/

Personally, I thought that the alternative design from Puhekupla was well thought out. It had a larger area, a search bar, a third icon to show if something is tradable within the marketplace, and it was still fitting in with the general design of the game with the colour schemes and the graphics used.

So why had this better idea not been brought to the developers attention? The new Inventory window just looks rather plain, bland and unimaginative - and doesn't actually bring any extra functionality to it either!

What a non-update!

[geo]

uh, it's amazing but we need search features and be able to categorize furni :-(

[Pigperson]

The changes are quite minor tbh although I don't like white boxes, they look far too plain.

[HabboSwat]

Crappy Update, every thing looks half done.. :L

No HC? Yesterday I had over 100 Days Left...

Not too bad, but still..?

Oh I hate those scroll things, I prefer my arrows :P.

You mean the arrows on the Hand? xD

[Samantha]

You mean the arrows on the Hand? xD

I'm not sure, you know in the Inventory to scroll down they had arrows at the bottom and top to move down, have I confused you :P?

[Aiden]

I quite like these tbh,yayyyy\!

[Yourgame652]

I'm not sure, you know in the Inventory to scroll down they had arrows at the bottom and top to move down, have I confused you :P?

Ohhh, I see what you mean, You mean that arrows on the scroll bar - Yeah, I'm totally with you on that! :D

For some reason I though you were referring to the (>>>) buttons on the Hand xD

Silly me!

[auffant1]

Not a big fan but doesn't affect me too much :P.

[Mr-Trainor]

I think the blue in the trade box could be temporary because of the problems people were having with trading on the new inventory yesterday.

[lawrawrrr]

Quite like this actually, fits in with the rest of the new stuff!
