Thank you all for mailing me regarding the issue. It's taken a while to get to the bottom of the issue.

The common factor is that you are all:

• Using Fetish Nightfall
• Using a resolution below 1280 x 1024.

The problem is actually in Fetish's eq2ui.xml file. The default UI (and most other UIs) set the base Size tag to 1024x768 but, for some reason, Fetish sets it to 1280x1024.

I cannot see the logic in this as Fetish must work at 1024x768 or you'd be seeing other issues. The simple fix, therefore, would be to edit your eq2ui.xml file and change Size and ScrollExtent from "1280,1024" to "1024,768".

Maybe someone would like to ask the Fetish authors why this is as it is. Also, if people would kindly confirm that this fix works, I'll build it into the utility to fix it up automatically.

Thanks,
Sixes.

Yes I have the same problem here, except i am using the 1024 X 768 setting. I sent you an email. I don't know if you got it. I am using the fetish Nightfall ui.
Many Thanks

Sixes

As far as I can see, this degrades happily as far as 1024 x 768.

Could both of you please mail me with details of the UI you are using so I can try it with that.

Thanks,
Sixes.

I'll take a look at this and see what I can do.

Binek, is this the same problem as you are seeing?

I run 2 boxes to play...

on first, 1280x1024, the interface shows just fine

on the other, 1440x800, the top and the bottom are cut off...

is there a setting in the file that determines the size of this interface so I can adjust it accordingly?

I tried to use your program. This would be very handy for me since I have 4 accounts. After I set it up and launched the program the top part of the character selection menu is cut off. Is there anyway to fix this. Many thanks in advance. I can just see the bottom part of world and the quit button.

SOE disallow third party software that hooks into the game at run time.

The secondary login screen is actually provided by Sony to bypass the patcher although it is not heavily advertised. If you run Everquest2.exe directly without making any modifications, you will see Sony's version of this page.

My revision to this page (actually Mook's revision) adds two features to this basic log on screen. Firstly it allows you to select from a number of characters; secondly it inserts the password into the relevant field.

The program simply generates the file. Mook generated the original one by hand but I'm far too lazy for that. So the program generates the file before you play, exactly like the EQ2 MAP Updater does and is therefore completely within the EULA.

Correct me if Im wrong, but I thought SOE disallowed the use of automatic log ons? Or 3rd party programs that interfaced with SOE software.

I am only seeking clarification on this- and if allowed, this would be very useful to me!
