The font changed from the hard coded FontKabosGyula24 to TextStyles.OnscreenMsg.OnscreenMsgStyle, I assume to take advantage of new options you can select in regards to On Screen messages. You may be able to leave it hard coded (I haven't tried).

The addition of :8d7f373294c57d99: before [DEVL]in two places had to do with new localization options (I assume to easily change the language).

Neither of which sounds like it would help with the white box...but I found one tiny little thing that stood out to me...

The line that starts <Image Location="46,32" Name="OrbBackGround", has SourceResource="images\SorakOrb2.tga". Notice the forward slash. Every other locationin a mod I've looked at uses the backward slash. Changing that, I assume, brings back the transparency. I would guess an unlisted (or hard-to-find) change in the coding made \ and / more critical than before, which made the mod start having a white background.

Anyway, hope this helps anyone using this great casting mod!!
Thank you so much for this, it works perfectly. I am very new to modding anything in EQII (I just started last night, literally lol) but this was very easy to understand so thank you for this.

This is a beautiful casting mod, I really adore it, thank you for making this mod!

I really liked this mod too, Im getting a white box behind the casting orb...I've no idea when it started but it had to have been recently as I had to do a reformat and start a customUI from scratch.

If anyone has a working stand-alone casting animation besides the default would ya be willing to share it?

I've also re-downloaded the mod and have seen the white and black background when casting, this seems to be based off of different video cards/drivers. However, originally it showed a transparent background. I've updated drivers even rolled back drivers with no change. The symptoms did occur on one of SoE's updates a few months ago and has never been the same since.

Any suggestions or a good direction would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Great Mod!

I adore this simple mod!

Somewhere around late last year, a white box started showing up around the globe...more than likely because of an EQ2 change. Is there any way to get it to go away?

Thanks!
I just got this mod and my box is black, thought it was just the backround but I checked and it has no backround selected. I double checked the file locations the tga is in my eq2/ui/cutomui/images directory and the casting .xml file is in eq2/ui/cutomui directory. so Im pretty sure I installed correctly.
any help would be MOST appreciated.

Jim

Hmm, tried this today, but the globe was gone, nothing there when I harvest etc. Used your prior one with no problems, maybe because one is a .tga and the prior one is a .dds?

I'm not a really good UI modder tho but I'm using the same UI for awhile and the 4 little red arrow always worked well. Maybe not in link with the mainhud_casting cause in fact it is not linked and the arrow seems to be same size and same movement. For me it seems it is just the graphics of the arrow that are gone. Is it possible that it is because you use the SorakOrb2.tga images instead of window_elements_generic.dds???

Also notices something : I run EQ2 in 1280 X1024 (don't know if it change something for that bug) When my inventory is full is writes in the casting window. Becasue it is less wider, it only wrote Your inventory is. Is it possible to make it show??

That is odd. This mod should only effect the casting window and its graphics. I do not believe that this effects that as I think them effects are hardcoded into the client. I looked thru the xml and see nothing that hints to an effect like that. I have not seen this when I play and I use all my own mods. Hrmm I am stumped on this one. I would be curious to know if anyone else notices this side effect.

Is this happening to your spells on the hotkey? I don't remember them effects on the casting meter.
