Any idea if there are any issues with this and the latest fetish (LU21) ?

Just one "bug" or peculiarity... there's an easy workaround so no biggie but thought I'd let ya know:

I have to use the Manual download of EQ2Maps because of firewall issues interfering with the autoupdater. Everytime I redownload EQ2Maps the background of your Command Centrer goes black. The Compass and Clock areas are blacked out (though still functional) etc.

The easy workaround is to just redownload the command center AFTER I download EQ2Maps and it works fine until the next time I redownload Maps. Anyway, just an FYI there.

Technically the infocenter has nothing to do with my Command Center other than the toggle button I made for it. I still looked into it for you though, and what I figure had happened did (I cant say who it happened to and it doesnt matter cause it isnt a user error but EQ2UI Builder that does this). But anyways I learned in my own experience when moving around objects/pages etc in UIBuilder that if there is an <include></include> and you move it sometimes it takes the contents of the included file and replaces the include tags so that it no longer actually calls the file that it should but instead has the original data in the controlling XML file and that is what happened here while someone was working on the UI. I'm going to list the fix here instead of a private message so others can see how to do it as well in case they wish to edit their own notes. Open Notes.XML in your infocenter folder (located inside your fetish UI folder) in notepad. You should see an area like this:

You will notice that there is very similar code for each of the other notes, and they all need to be fixed as well in the same manner with the appropriate note number where applicable. First delete the localtext=" and everything in between quotes then the quote " before Location then you need to delete everything after the TextColor="#E5E5E5"> section up to the </text> part then you want to insert the include tags and it should look like this when your done:

After you edit all of the Notes.XML file be sure to save it with the Save option (if some reason you must do save as be sure you click ALL FILES instead of .TXT so it does not try to add the txt extension to the file). Now you can edit your notes located in the Note folder inside the Infocenter folder inside your Fetish folder to show what you want (hopefully)!

Trying to edit notes here, and I cant seem to get them to show up in game, any ideas? Noted in Milq's help section where Zonx said he had missed some stuff, and was wondering if it was his mod or the add-ons ? I love adding pieces lol, and its always so hard to figure out where I messed up

They should be turned off in Raid Mode ON setting if I recall, so when you zone just hit raid mode on if your lagging and then when your lag clears hit the Raid Mode OFF setting to re-enable most normal play settings. If those 2 settings arent the way you prefer them there is a utility and how to file on how to set them up the way you want in the latest download.

The shadow function is for pure lag issue and look, I most of the time use shadow and environemental shadows on but well some time after a i zone many time the only option is relog or drop the shadows off so I dont have to make the people i am group to wait for me

Yes the Milquetowst Compass/Clock will work, however they will not toggle off because they are flagged to always show even on hide. You can either manually edit the files in notepad and remove the OnHide="visible=true" in them (cant remember if it was one or both) or you can download my normal Startbutton Command Center and use the Milquetowst Compass/Clock I included in it that already has the flag removed. I did not include the Milquetowst ones in this version as they do not really blend in with the Fetish look but they do work. You could probably use just about any clock or compass but make sure that flag isnt set or they wont toggle on/off with the buttons is all.

hiroprotagonist

hate to bother you yet again, but is there a way to use the square clock / compass, or even to use the Milquetoast http://www.eq2interface.com/download...fo.php?id=3820 versions, or is it something that Zonx works with in his UI? I know his personabar is tied to it, but as I never use it, it would be no lose for me.

I will add a Harvest Mode button/preset to a future release (flora off, max rendering distances, particles set to high etc). If/when I do I will personal message (PM) you and let you know when its available. I do not want to clutter up the window with too many buttons so I will not likely add multiple toggles for single options like shadows or flora. However like the flora being turned off in the harvest mode setting, flora could be enabled in the Raid mode OFF (normal play) setting so that you still can toggle it on and off for harvesting but not add unneeded additional buttons. As far as shadows, does that setting have anything to do with harvesting or just lag or for looks? It could be disabled in Raid Mode On or the Harvest Mode On, then enabled in the Raid Mode OFF (normal play) preset.

Sorry jousting timers can not be done in game using the current timer options, they are limited to 1 minute as a minumum meaning that you can not time most AE for jousting. So until SoE allows timers in seconds as well as minutes/hours I do not think it is possible for timing AE/jousts using a UI mod.

Note that these below are 3rd party utilities (parsers) and not UI mods:

ACT parser program has some AE timers/settings and it is suppose to be very good from what I hear. Below the ACT parser is a link to Combat Stats parser, it also has triggered events or something another that can be used for AE/jousting. Lastly there is EQCompanion which I believe has some timer and trigger functions as well.

Hope 1 of them can help you.

Just A curiosity since it is something I haven't found in an interface but it is very possible that I have missed it. Is there a jousting timer available for the UI or one that is known?

Any chance you could create 2 extra buttons.
One to turn on and off the flora (i can use one of the custom settings but well then that setting is not avalaible anymore). I usually turn the Flora and Flora animation of when I harvest but or else I keep it turn on it look better.
The other one would be to turn on and of the shadows.
Been tryig to figure how to create those to add then myself but for some reason it aint working
Thanks

Make sure you cut and paste the command exactly how I have it listed above including the / as it will not work without it, also make sure the spelling is correct.

did what it says and says the macro is an unknown command

Hmm thought I set the raid mode off to balanced settings with med texture resolutions then a few minor tweaks. I run an Ati 9800 Pro which I use as a baseline for the raid mode off settings so if you have a lesser card maybe those settings are too high still. I will private message you with details and try to see if we can help you edit it to match your needs better.
