ElricGroup beta
******READ ME FIRST******
NOW HERE THIS: ALL FUTURE EHLRICH_GROUP UPDATES WILL OCCUR IN THIS TOP POST TO EASE ACCESS AND READABLITY FEATURES: 1 || Auto-Assist-On-Click: Automatically triggers Assist and Auto-attack when the GroupMembers name is clicked. Normal assist targeting still occurs upon clicking elsewhere in the GroupMember window. 2 || Auto-Resize: No more having to worry about resizing your group window. This feature enables the window to stretch or shrink itself depending on how many members are in group UPDATE v0.6 -------------------------------- There actually have been no real changes to the file, however I have decided that because I haven't felt the need to change anything, and noone has given any negative responses, I uploaded the vert style to the downloads page. It'll take a while for approval prolly, but I made a step farther in that direction. UPDATE v0.5.1 (HAS BEEN UPLOADED SEE BOTTOM) ------------------------------------------------------ 1 || Feedback suggested to dulldown member names. Looked in game and realized I did have them a tad on the brightside, so I dumbed them ... er DULLED them back down. 2 || Both EhlricGroup_Vert *AND* EhlricGroup_Horz have been added. See thumbnails and pick whichever you prefer. Other pending updates include an EhlricGroup F1-F6 window. This will most likely be available in vertical only, unless there is demand for it. Also, keep an eye out for upcoming EhlricPlayer and Ehlric Target. UPDATE v0.5 BETA ------------------------------------------- 1 || Changed window outlines from beige/gold to grey. Adjusted outlines so that everything was symmetrical and pretty like. 2 || Changed the name background colors to be a bit brighter. 3 || Removed toggle button for the time being, because the durn thing doesn't work right at all. Considering creating a horizontal version for those that desire it. 4 || Feedback suggests that I implement F1 into the group window as well. At present there are no plans to do so, because I would have to readjust all window sizes, and I dont want to do that just yet. Also, my upcoming Ehlric_Player is designed to augment/complement the group window. As soon as I get a layout I am pleased with, I will release it in BETA in a nother thread. v0.4 BETA ------------------------------------ Implemented Layout Toggle button. Group window will now rearrange itself based on personal preference. Cut Main Window size down to 256pixels long, so that when the group window is full in horizontal layout, total GroupWindow length is 1280pixels. v0.3 BETA ------------------------------------ Implemented Vertical Stretch/Shrink effects. Main Group window will automatically resize on adding/removing of group members. No more hassle of not being able to see your members Greatly Enlarged Group Progressbars because the stock one is just too darn small. v0.2 BETA ----------------------------------- Decided to use Zonx FetishGroup as a mold for the mod. Replaced his group progressbar styles with his standard styles. Removed/Hid Effects Icons from GroupMember windows, because I don't need them. v0.1 BETA ------------------------------------ Initial Concept, see First thumbnail. CREDITS: Zonks: For his unyielding "support" and willingness to put up with my inane and asinine questions. Also, many features have been borrowed from his various resources, whether it be coding, DDS files, or what-have-you. For his shrinko-matic windows and such, because they were my inspiration for this window tweak. Sunthas: The original design was based loosely off of his Moab-style Target and Implied Target Windows. Talyns: For created the exzact look of a UI that I wanted before I knew I wanted it. I used a few of his DDS files for my backgrounds and such. Unknown: Credit going to all those lovely people who actually tried my UI and gave me feedback on it. And anyone else I might have forgotten |
Updated Ehlric Group Window
NOTICE: THIS MOD USES A MODIFIED EQ2UI.INI FILE AS WELL AS ARIAL TYPE FONT. ALL NECESSARY FILES WILL BE INCLUDED
UPDATE: After some further fiddling around, I have created a much cleaner, compact version of Ehlric_Group. At the bottom you will find an updated screenshot. A nice feature of this group window is that it resizes itself depending on full your group is. As of right now, it only operates vertically, although I am in the works of creating a vertical/horizontal toggle. In horizontal mode, the group window should stretch the full length of the screen (1280x1024). I also have hidden the group member effects. Being a tank, I find no need of these, as I can't do anything about it anyway. Each group of effects icons are still in their corresponding windows, I have simply moved them out of the display range. I might create a version with the displays at a later date. Please feel free to critque this mod, which I will post as soon as possible. |
I think it looks very good. Professional, sleet, and not too showy. However, the light tan/baige'ish color around it looks a little out of place. Maybe, a darker grey, or even black might look a little better.
Other than that, it looks very well done. What I like about it is how well you can distinguish between the health and power bards. With most mods, they try to be so compact, you can't see the group members' power bars, and that could be hazardous in a given situation. All in all, well done, just tone the colors down a bit. :) |
v0.5b Ehlrich_Group
UPDATES:
1. Changed total window width to 256pixels, in anticipation for the upcoming variable format. 2. My Vert/Horiz toggle button has been giving me major problems, so I ditched it for now. 3. Did not test with full group, but the vertical resizing seems to be working with the small group I had. KNOWN BUGS: 1. I don't believe that the GroupMember Healthpercent is working right. I will look into it. So far, thats the only bug ----------- I feel comfortable enough with it, I am attaching the group window as is. As far as I know there arent any bugs, but *shrug* I ain't the best. Credit for this mod goes to: Sunthas: for the original look and idea. Zonx: For his willingness to put up with my questions, inane or otherwise :D PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS GROUP WINDOW USES CUSTOM SETTINGS WHICH HAVE BEEN PROVIDED FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE. DO NOT INSTALL INTO YOUR CURRENT UI FOLDER, PLEASE MAKE A NEW ONE. NOTE: Forgot to add the attachment, so here ya go! :D :D |

I decided with a larger group window because, as a tank, its vital for me to pay attention to others health, and the stock is so small, I can barely see it. Its meant to go int the corner of the screen and not take up too much space. Full size is 256x210. The reason why it is 256 is for when I implement the horizontal layout option, which would then spread the total length of 1280 (thus stretching full screen length, top or bottom) Havin problems with that though. Heh Thanks for the input, I highly suggest that you download the file and test it for me for bugs ...er ... thats if I included it with my last message. Heh. Darrin |
I like the look, very nice. Now if only we could show the player's class like the raid window does... :)

They added the dynamic data names to the file a few patches ago, but it's not functional yet.
|
UPDATE:
Modified GroupMember Name background colors, They are a bit brighter. Let me know if this is a positive change or bad. Thats basically the only change. Tried adding level/class dynamic data, but as this thread states, they are not functional at present. Since I am having so many problems with the vertical button, I am prolly going to make a vertical group as an option. Maybe. I have an idea for the border/frame reskin, I just hafta find out what to pull from, and or modify. Thanks Darrin Note: Forgot to upload pick, but thats ok cuz its obselete now. New pic on way. UPDATE 2: I have decided that all future updates will be posted in the first post, for easy access and to lessen frustrations. The format will be similar too:UPDATE v0.6 -------------------------- Stuffffff UPDATE v0.5 ---------- stuff. And so on. So look there first for the important stuff. Thanks. |
Not An Official Update
THIS IS NOT AN OFFICIAL UPDATE. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS FILE
I am merely placing a file here for Zonx to look at, so's he can fix mah button. That's it. Unless you have a FetishUI and are so inclined to try and fix mah button, then iggy dis post. Tanku bery much Darrin |
It's looking nice, I like the style... but I must say that all the different colors of the group member rows reall throws your (my) eyes into a twisted wreck. If I kinda focus on nothing I can see all the hp bars... but I dunno. I would think that so many colors would make it confusing.
