I would appear to have the same problem as the previous poster. I can live with out some of the new enhanced features (persona audio, etc.), but I am finding it hard to get to grips with the new spell lines without tooltips. Have installed the patch but still have this problem. Hate to have to revert to default EQ2 UI, but considering it. :(

Valeriane 09-16-2005 09:17 AM

I also am having the issue with lack of tooltips (although I have to admit, this would be less of an issue if they hadn't changed what a lot of the icons look like ...)

Another issue I am having is when I try to use the .ini file you include for set-up (the one that, in theory, gives me the same layout as the one pictured here.) Not only does it not seem to work for me (my windows are all over the place when I log in), but when I attempt to tab my chat window, it crashes the game back to my desktop. (That's not just this UI though, I've had the same problem with others as well; only exception to that was with eXtreme UI ... part of the installer creates that file and installs it with the UI. Can you do that for yours? puh-leeze?)

Other than that, I love this UI, and I can't wait to get it figured out so I can actually use it. :) Keep up the awesome work.

Oh, and I apologize if this is less than coherent ... it's early, and I haven't had my coffee yet. :p

Reply to three posts above regarding tooltips and other issues.
 
Please see post http://www.eq2interface.com/forums/s...&postcount=419

New tool tips are supported and work fine in my latest version.

Window placements file will need to be used in order to setup your windows like mine quickly.

Quick Question...
 
I'm new to this, but I did a few searches and can't find the answer... On the start button area, you have 3 custom graphics settings, and one for extremem performance. How do I create/save/enable-in-Thor the custom settings?

Thanks in advance for the newb question.

Hi,

im having problem with stats and name in the group window.
I reinstalled the new DoF Patch for the UI and the groupwindow
"left to right" works fine with showing the name and stats.

It would be nice if you can fix the name and stats problem for the other groupmember versions too, because my favorite is from top to bottom.

Is it possible to show the chartype icon (the icon in the raidwindow for healer, warrior, scout and mage) in the groupmember window ?

Thx in Advance

Instructions currently hidden in the ThorUI folder in the Custom Preset folder.
Usually C:\Program Files\Sony\Ever Quest II\UI\ThorUI\Custom Preset\

This will have instructions more readily available with the Auto Updater version of the ThorUI.

I'll try and get the other versions updated but my priority is the Auto Updater at this time as it stands to make everyones life MUCH easier with regards to the ThorUI.

As for the character type icon in the groupmember window...
Email that suggestion to eq2@durumus "me" and I will be sure to save it for review once I'm able to get back to modding. ;)

Yes in HotFix Section now.
Let me know if it doesn't work, I haven't had time to verify.

Also:
Groupmember Full TopFillBottom uploaded to HotFix section as well ;)

Can't move compass any more?
 
I've been having a weird problem since I changed my game resolution. All of a sudden I couldn't move the compass window. It's not locked. I used the "Default location" button, and it moved it to somewhere near the lower-left of center on my screen, but I still can't click and drag it anywhere. I can resize it, just can't move it. It's in a really annoying spot on the screen, so I've had it toggled off, but I'd really like it back. :) Any idea?

I suppose I should mention that I have installed the "hotfix" since LU13, and everything seemed to be working perfectly until I changed my screen resolution. (Mind you, I hadn't tried moving the compass for quite a while, because I had it right where I liked it)

The issue is indeed with my compass (I plan to resolve with my next update as there is a workaround)
right click and choose window settings and it's either frames or no frames but one of those will allow you to move it again.
Again, my fault and I will have an update to it as soon as I am able to get back to modding ;)

Character Names?
 
Hi,

I've been scanning through the thread, so forgive me if this has already been asked, but I didn't see it in here.

The Character box and Group Character boxes don't show the name of the character. You have to mouse over to see who is who.

Is this by design? Or is there something I need to change?

Thanks,
Dave

Thanks so much for the timely response. I'll give that a try when I get home. As long as I can move it once, even if it is via a workaround, I'm happy. :)

ThorUI Classic?
 
I unchecked the new Inventory box(if you remember my earlier post) because I didn't like not being able to see my character and other stuff. The problem now is that I have that gaudy, huge Inventory screen that Default uses(did their UI guys have a good summer vacation before starting high school?). Is there any way that I can revert some of my windows such as the Inventory and Tradeskill windows back to the way ThorUI had them before the update?

Have to bash on the new Tradeskill window too lol, too small and doesn't show my HP/Power and what counters I'm using. Just seems to me your new upgrades take away so much information in exchange for more screen size. In some aspects that's definitely a nice thing but when I'm crafting or just checking my Inventory the need to be able to see as much of my surroundings as possible is usually low priority, I'd much rather see as much info as I can pertaining to these two scenarios.

Understood, i'll be adding other selections when I can get back to modding.
The earlier tradeskill and inventory were Fetish so you could theoretically see about using his.

Hello, using your UI now for a week or so and like it immensely except I am having one nagging issue with the Target window that I have not seen anyone else address so thought I would mention it in case I am doing something wrong.

My problem is that the Target window truncates any NPC name longer than about 9 spaces long. Is there any optional target window version that allows a longer target name for your UI? Example : A Shrouded Boneslayer will appear in Tareget window as A Shrouded. I like to watch my target window exclusively during combat to monitor progress against the target and the need to move my vision focal point is disruptive for me personally. If you have no alternate modified window, is your mod able to take a desirable window from "Fetish " without crashing your mod? Thanks.

Hi all,

after trying to find out whats is wrong for a few days , I decided to post here.

I installed latest ThorUI and I installed patch.
My problem is, that I can not read the popups if I move my mouse over the hotbar icons. It is somehow corrupted/missing. The same for the effect window.

Can anyone help me to fix that little problem ? I really would appreciate it.

Thx in advance.

It is very well done in comparison to any eq1 or eq2 ui's out there. Dont think I will ever stear away from this one.

One of my all time favorite features I bragged to friends about to help pull them all to Thor UI was that awesome FIND button on our personal store, which appears to be missing now. Took away sooo much wasted time trying to compare items for your store and put it back into playing. Will this feature be reinstituted?? I, too, was so heartbroken to see it gone after this patch up.

As always, you have an awesome UI and I beleive I have converted my entore guild to it :D . Thanx for everything!

It's still there.
Sony changed their default search to automatically use your characters class and level range so will need to see what I can do about that but the search is still there.

I tried to stay with the original sizing as the default sony target window with my initial release.
I'm swamped right now working on the ThorUI Auto Updater and other items but will certainly plan on adding that feature as I do agree that is annoying to not see the full name.
Please send all recommendations to [email protected] as I will review those submitted for future mods.

As for fetish items. yes you can add pieces.
My mod doesn't modify the eq2ui.xml or the mainhud.xml so you can add any mod to mine very easily.

Sony updated if with alot more info then disabled its use entirely. :(
All we can do is wait and see if they add access back. (Or we could send in game feedback asking for it's return) ;)

If we do in game feedbacks you would be asking them to return access to "eq2ui_mainhud_character.xml"

crafting and bank windows
 
Love your UI.....
That said, I am having 2 problems since the 13 update.
1) The tradeskill/crafting window no longer shows the buffs I am casting. When you hit "recipe" at the end of a combine, it no longer remembers what you looked at last. I have to sort each time I go to start a new combine.
2) The Guild window does not have the tab for Banking.

Are there any work arounds for these?

Hmm, I think I'm lost. And by now you are sick of me. The fact you even still answer us while trying to get your updater prepared is testament to you (and why maybe you shuold run the gaming undustry!! :cool: ).

As for my dilemma, I didn't mean the search options on the side in the market window, but rather the tab that I had only ever seen in your mod--right when you open personal store, near the "set price" button was a "find" button, allowing you to search the market for whatever specific item you had highlighted right on your store page from inventory/vault. Made pricing a breeze, instead of having to go into the market window and retype the item and search from there; it auto input and searched for the exact item. I tried to just reload that window from your previous version...but apparently it isnt compatible now and is only a black box, so I had to fall back to EQII default.

I simply found that one button as the selling point of your UI when I first met it, and then noticed and loved the rest. If it can never make it back, I'll just mourn it's loss by slaughtering a slew of beasties--but if it can, I shall fall down and worhip you more!

First i've heard of the tradeskill issue and haven't had a chance to play due to new ThorUI Auto Update coming but i'll look into it.

FYI i changed tradeskill windows some time ago from Zonx's to Jaxel's
That "may" be the issue which you could use Zonx's and overwrite mine if you wish.

It's still there http://www.eq2interface.com/forums/a...achmentid=3682 "search for item" button

The search function has been compromised slightly due to Sony's changing the page default to your characters class and level range. (Note: This didn't stop the function completely as it still works)
I'll be looking into what I can do to resolve their default window setting.
Until then everyone interested can /feedback sony in game asking them to please return default settings to "any" within the market window. ;)

deleting and reinstalling cause...well CAUSE!! I'm gonna make it work =D *bows* TYTYTYTYTYTYTYTY not even going to question why mine wasnt there...just gonna do it again and it will be there and all will be well with the world!

"It's still there.
Sony changed their default search to automatically use your characters class and level range so will need to see what I can do about that but the search is still there."

Anyway you could mod the search window to save the information in
the broker search window in the settings you last used.

ie: instead of it default to fury, if i set it to any, it would remeber that
i used any, and I wouldnt have to tab change fury to any each time i wanted
to look up an item.

this was really an unasked for setting added by Soe, and its pretty well
broken broker windows unless you know that you have to set the class
tab to any in order to be able to look up any jewelery or accessories, as
well as price checking any items which you are selling which you cannot
use (and in some cases the level restricts on the objects your selling or
buying are higher then you can use.).

aside from that ive been using your ui since i started back in august, and
very much appreciative that it is around.

thanks,

Market Default Settings on load
 
Bad news gang, the market window default settings aren't anywhere within the market window that I can see. (Bear in mind i've been staring at xml coding for the past 20 hours refining our new Auto Updater version of the ThorUI before it's release. So I may have overlooked something...)

Sony's UI staff has the market window in a state of limbo at the moment so it's hard to tell which way they may go. (Old controls are still there with new controls hidden when viewed with the UIBuilder)

When looking at the raw xml; It's coded in a way that it receives the info from Sony "There isn't much I can change". (The default settings for the window as most of you know, load your current characters level as the "Max Level Value" along with your class. This as you know infringes on our nice little "Search for Item" button from the store window working to it's full potential.)

Good news is:
Since the window is in a state of limbo and obviously having issues (vendor text not showing on most items) I really can't see Sony leaving it this way for long. "Although as I type that I can't help wonder when they are going to ever start sending the groupmember health and power percentages promised back at LU12 :( "

Longwinded post summed up:
Search "kind of works" for now...
We'll have to wait on Sony to make a change.

jamesthenutt 09-18-2005 12:09 PM

Hi. I'm new to EQ2 and your UI, so be patient with me plz :) I loaded your UI up and used your UI setup for 1280x1024 but it loads all screwy with things stacked on one another. I've used the DOF patch and all the hotfixes, but still have the same problem. I even installed the UISwitcher just to make sure the file was being copied to my character correctly.

hmm did you rename my uisetting file to servername_charactername_eq2_uisettings.ini where servername is the server you play on and charactername is the name of your character? Also ensure it's in your EverQuest II directory. (Sounds like you did, just making sure)

Not sure where the issue may be if that was done.
Let me know and I'll be thinking on this one...

jamesthenutt 09-18-2005 01:16 PM

Yeah, I did that. Works just like UI's in the old eq, more or less.

I've moved things around myself, and all seems ok, but one thing I'm noticing is I'm not seeing the heroic opportunity window.

EDIT: I uninstalled and reinstalled the UI again, and while it didn't fix placement, I did get the heroic opportunities window back.
