1 / 3Built interface — Themed status HUD
Overview
Rust UI Skin Pack re-skins the interfaces a player meets on your server so they look like one place rather than five plugins from five authors. Each theme covers the welcome screen, the info panel with its rules and links, the shop, the kit menu and a server status overlay, drawn in the same colours, type and spacing. Themes are delivered as CUI JSON layouts with the image assets they reference, ready for the matching plugins.
A theme is more than a colour swap. Panel shapes, tab styles, button states, hover and disabled looks, icons and the background treatment are all part of it, so a rugged industrial theme and a clean minimal theme feel like different servers. Each theme ships in a dark and a light variant plus a colour token file, which means you can move the accent to your server's brand colour without redrawing anything.
The layouts are built for the DistroSource Rust plugins and for any plugin that loads its CUI from a JSON file, which covers the common welcome, info and shop plugins. Image assets are PNGs sized for CUI, with a guide on hosting them and referencing them by URL, since Rust loads UI images from a web address rather than the server's disk.
One new theme is added each month and every theme in the current library is available from the day you subscribe. Themes are files you place in your own configs and host on your own image host. We do not host anything for you. The plan page lists the current themes and the Rust build the layouts were last checked against.
