The interface is changed because it uses a custom interface. I think the custom interface was made by Blizzard.

I have them myself, I'll upload it to this post.

Use the import manager to import them into the map.

You don't have to put in a custom field, you can leave them just the way it is. Now go to Advanced ---> Game Interface

You have to make the following changes:

"Image - Cinematic Border" change to BlackBorder.blp
"Image - Console Background" change to BlackBorder.blp
"Image - Game Menu Background" change to BlackBorder.blp
"Image - Game Menu Blank Background" change to BlackBorder.blp
"Image - Game Menu Border" change to NewCinBorder.blp

Hope this helps. :D

I believe it's the trigger, "Cinematic - Turn on letterbox mode (hide interface) for (All players): fade out over 2.00 seconds."
