Currently a git master version of MyGUI is required, but the needed features will be included in the next release 3.2.2. When 3.2.2 is released, compiling will no longer be necessary and a package can be used.
* Install MyGUI version 3.2.2 from https://github.com/MyGUI/mygui.
 
* Make sure you are using OpenMW 0.35 or later and have the Plugin_MyGUI_OpenMW_Resources library available in your OpenMW install.
* Download, compile and install the latest git master version of MyGUI from https://github.com/MyGUI/mygui.
* Rebuild OpenMW against the new MyGUI version you just installed. An OpenMW version from git master is currently required, which includes a MyGUI Plugin library called Plugin_MyGUI_OpenMW_Resources.
* Copy the Plugin_MyGUI_OpenMW_Resources library file from the OpenMW build folder to the directory you will be running the MyGUI Layout Editor from (most likely the "bin" subdirectory in MyGUI's build directory).
* Copy the Plugin_MyGUI_OpenMW_Resources library file from the OpenMW build folder to the directory you will be running the MyGUI Layout Editor from (most likely the "bin" subdirectory in MyGUI's build directory).
* Create a file called ''OpenMWResourcePlugin.xml'' and place it in ''Media/Tools/LayoutEditor/Settings''. Paste the following content:
<pre>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<MyGUI>
<MyGUI type="Plugin">
<Plugin>
<Source>./Plugin_MyGUI_OpenMW_Resources</Source>
</Plugin>
</MyGUI>
</MyGUI>
</pre>
* Edit ''Media/Tools/LayoutEditor/EditorPlugin.xml'', adding the following line:
<pre>
<List file="OpenMWResourcePlugin.xml"/>
</pre>
* Start the MyGUI LayoutEditor.
* Start the MyGUI LayoutEditor.
* Go to ''File -> Settings -> Folders'', press ''Add'' and select the folder in your OpenMW repository containing the MyGUI layouts (''files/mygui'')
* Go to ''File -> Settings -> Folders'', press ''Add'' and select the folder in your OpenMW repository containing the MyGUI layouts (''files/mygui'')

NOTE: The MyGUI resource plugin is currently disabled as of the OSG port / master. Maintaining this plugin would require a dependency on Ogre3D in its current form. You can however still grab a build of the older OpenMW 0.36.1 and use the included plugin to edit layouts.

NOTE: MyGUI does not support plugins for Mac OSX yet (https://github.com/MyGUI/mygui/issues/42), so editing OpenMW layouts is currently not possible on that platform.

  • Install MyGUI version 3.2.2 from https://github.com/MyGUI/mygui.
  • Make sure you are using OpenMW 0.35 or later and have the Plugin_MyGUI_OpenMW_Resources library available in your OpenMW install.
  • Copy the Plugin_MyGUI_OpenMW_Resources library file from the OpenMW build folder to the directory you will be running the MyGUI Layout Editor from (most likely the "bin" subdirectory in MyGUI's build directory).
  • Start the MyGUI LayoutEditor.
  • Go to File -> Settings -> Folders, press Add and select the folder in your OpenMW repository containing the MyGUI layouts (files/mygui)
  • Go to File -> Settings -> Resources, press Add, type core_layouteditor.xml, then press Enter.
  • Restart the LayoutEditor and try to load a .layout file from OpenMW. It should be working now!
  • Note that when you save a layout, you need to run OpenMW's cmake script in order to copy it to OpenMW's build folder, so that the new layout is used when you start OpenMW.
