How does the new UI play with the old GUI?

[Zaffer]

Hi,

I have a project I’m just finishing which makes extensive use of the old GUI. Will I still be able to finish my project with the old GUI if I install 4.6 with the new UI? Thanks.

Yes. They are completely coexistent.

Thank you, Nanity!

Strongly advise you backup your project folder before upgrading to 4.6

Absolutely!

Of course, if you’re using a version control system worth its salt then this has already happened by default.

Assuming you’ve been good with committing your changes, especially right before upgrading!

I doubt the old GUI is going away, but bear in mind it’s not that well-performing for games

The old GUI system is heavily used for all the editor UI; it’s not going away any time soon.

I always back up. Thanks.
