Hi Drums,

I also really preferred the previous old POI's to these new ones. The new square "quest" and "updated/completed" POI's are really hard to distinguish when there's a lot close together. The feather for quests and red book for completed were much easier to distinguish. Also think the red cursor to show where you are stood out a lot better than the yellow one. And the tiny red and blue marks for mobs are a bit hard to mouse over for info as well. Some of the new symbols are nice, just not the most important ones.

Anyway, I went to do the follow through you linked for restoring the old POI's, but on the first step that says to go to the eq2ignorelist and delete that highlighted file. When I try to delete it, I cant. Only gives options to copy it. The first line is blue, ignorelist and filename are in red text and the skinnable ... part is in black text, if that helps you to know what I mean heh.
Seems a lot of the xml files are like this, where you cant delete or change anything in them. And I checked in properties, those boxes are unchecked, so its not that.

For this window, you have to right click and go into Window Settings and changed it to Frame & Titlebar option.

This was the old method of "saving custom layouts". It's easier to keep it this way since it's the only option the window offers as far as turning on/off.

Hi,

Just installed, really like what I'm seeing so far. However, for some reason I cant' get my maintained spell window to show the text (spell description, ward amount, etc) that I see in the sample pictures here. I don't see an option to allow that in the window, not sure what i'm overlooking.

Can anyone help?

thanks in advance and sorry for the simple question.

Drumstix42

Right, and what I said below was bind them to the normal numbers 1-6 on your keyboard. The numpad keys should still work fine.

I have TS hotkeyed as well. I was referring to the below photo that has the cluttered TS window reactive buttons with the Num text.

Glad you're enjoying the UI.
I hope to add both some sort of easy-access Volume/Video controls, with some of the other useful togglable options.

Drumstix42

Umm, not sure. I have my TS hotkeys tied to my normal 1 through 6 keys, but my numpad also works when setup like this. Not sure if that helps!

Accredo

Hi Drum, this is a rather dumb question as I'm certain the answer is right under my nose. But how can I disable the NUM text from the reactive buttons in the TS window? I can do this for the normal hotkeys but not in the TS window.

Drum, just complete this sentence for my stupidity. Accredo, that's easy to do but you're a/an ___Insert insult here____.

Hey Drum, I am new to your UI (just installed post GU57) and I really like it a lot! Thanks for all the hard work and effort you've put into it!

I have one question/suggestion... is it possible to add a set of audio volume controls to your start button area? I used to use the THOR UI and I really miss being able to adjust music/BG/combat sound without leaving the main screen.

Thanks again and all the best, OBD

Hail mate.

I d like to ask if there is an any way how to use old POIs from eq2 autoupdater maps. I am simpli use to them and everytime I launch EQ2 map udater I see that: _Skinnable_POI_Icons.xml + _Skinnable_WindowElementsMini.xml + eq2ui_popup_add_poi.xml are on IgnoreList, not updated.

is there any way how to bypasse it ?

I looked at a compare of pre-GU57, and I'm not really sure what else was changed besides that one graphic file. Someone will have to track it down, cause I seem to be missing why the icons them selves are still being "rounded".

Fadani

I just noticed that the spell effects icons are not actually rounded now, but give the illusion they are because the background color of the icon doesnt extend to the corners, the corners are blackened ...thus make them look rounded off from a distance. Not sure why its displaying like that =x

Fadani

Thanks so much for making the square icons available again! I put the file you provided in my Images > Icons folder. Everything's back to how it was before except the spell/det spell effects icons, those are still rounded. Can you provide a fix for those as well?

1. Hm, if I can find what file is causing it I'll fix it if possible. But I agree, custom ui users usually aren't new to the game enough to care about the tutorials.
2. There's a little documentation that comes with the EQ2ui builder, but I didn't really read it until months after messing around. There's basically just what you can find on the forums, and that. Learn to use the UIBuilder and start modifying things starting with easier projects. That's how I got into it. Editing windows/elements that already exist is the easiest way to learn.
