I haven't used this mod, but it looks to be a replacement file for the existing eq2ui_journals_active.xml.

You should only need to copy it into the directory for your current UI folder/

You should find the existing file in your UI folder and make a backup before replacing with this (or any) mod.

Hope this helps.

I have a Eq2maps folder and a defult Eq2 folder named "Default" and i tried putting it in Default without any success. Any other idea?

Since you listed the only two choices yourself and already excluded one of them the correct choice would appear to be obvious.

Tried both, no success.

Unlikely, unless you are not using EQ2MAP either. Check the FAQ linked at the top on installing interfaces and verify each step.

I'm with you on this, gm9.

Odds are, (s)he doesn't have the eq2.ini file in the correct place (if they have one at all)!
