For the Beta server you can download new files using the utility as usual, except you must replace the Guild window with the file at the top of this page. I thought I could juggle both versions with the updater but this is the better solution for now. If there are any other files that need to be handled separately, I'll post it on the server message that pops up when you check for updates.

This fixed my issue. Thank you!

Greetings!

I think I must have gone blind. I can't seem to find a way to get the experimentation tab to come up in the tradeskill window. I'm in experimentation AA mode on my character and everything is set up correctly, but I can't get the tab up and can't think of how to do it. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Darqwood

Try re-committing your AA spec. I just switched mine around and the Experimentation tab showed up and went away correctly for the different specs.

Please remind me - how to activate quick invite buttons in guild window?

Darqwood

Since I'm already working on the Guild window I went ahead and added a variable near the top of the window to make it easier to show or hide the invite icons. If you are on live servers, you can download it with the utility. For Beta, there is an updated zip file at the top of this page. Use Notepad to change the following:

<Data Name="InviteIcons" Value="true" />

I'm away from my game computer at the moment so did this by remote control -- please post again if you still can't see the icons.

I recently got into beta testing and copied over my UI folder for eq2 to betaserver folder. I was able to get most of the darqui features to load correctly except for the darqui toolbar that shows harvest helper, windows manager (ex extended player, enemy list). I've tried changing the line in eq2_recent.ini from cl_ui_skinname default to be cl_ui_skinname DarqUI_v3. However, everytime I log into beta however, it overwrites this file and puts default back in and doesn't load the toolbar. Is there another file that I also need to change as well? Keep up the amazing work Darq, the UI is incredible and by far my favorite that I've used.

Thank you for your comments, morprulz. The easy way to set DarqUI as the default on Beta is to drop a copy of the utility into the \BetaServer\UI\ folder and run it from there. Go to the Files tab and click "Make this UI the default." If it says "Stop using this UI as the default" click it twice -- once to clear the default and once to enable it again. This should make it so you don't have to type /loadui each time.

You can get the Nav bar to appear by opening the window manager and selecting the Experience Bar page. There is a checkbox for "Show floating nav bar." Please post again if you are still having trouble.

The first time i inspect something after i first log in the window does not open, but all others after that work right unless i inspect the same item again. No matter what toon i log in to has to inspect something to be able to see other things i inspect. Afraid of losing my settings and saved UI stuff if i have to reinstall. I reset windows to not go off screen and reset windows to default location with no fix.

Try using the default Examine window to narrow down the problem. Check for updates with the utility, then find Examine in the list of files. Right-click and delete it. Then before you close the utility, check the "Skip" checkbox next to Examine. The next time you log in to the game you'll have the default Examine window. Does it open when you examine an item?

ok, updated my UI utility to Version 3.1.1.6

checked for updates and deleted the Examine file and clicked the check box to skip it. Restarted the utility to verifiy the examine window file was deleted and checked to skip it. Logged in to game and having the same issue with the examine window the first time i log into a toon on the whole account. If i examine an item 2 times it says close examine the 2nd time i try, but no window available.

tried to reset windows to not show off screen and set windows to default location. still having my problem.

Darqwood

While still using the default Examine window, restart the game and log in to a character. Before opening anything, right-click any window (such as chat) and go to Window Settings. In the Locate section there are three Examine windows: Item, Recipe and Spell. Go to each one and use the buttons to "show" and "center" the window. Now move each of the three windows to any other spot on the screen (which will trigger them to save their locations.) Now log all the way out of the game and back in to that character. Does the examine window work now?
