now that i am using the new TSkill window I love the icons that show the count down to when they can be used again.

This single thing would be the absolute best thing to add to the hotbar. WOW would it not be nice to see the numbers counting down on when a spell can be used again with out having too wave the mouse pointer to get a tool tip.

Can this be done?

I been looking over this for the past couple days, and I don't seem to see anyone else who is having this problem. Everything is working fine with the UI, except when I bring up my map screen (m). The window is there but invisible. I get the options by right clicking, and I can move the window around. I tried playing with the window settings, but not matter what mixture of opacity I use, I can't seem to get it to re-appear.

Any ideas?

Hi,

First, thanks for this nice ui-mod. But I have a question.

1 of my twinks is a defiler. Is there a way to show in maintained window the digits of a remaining ward always, not only the remaining time? If I move the mouse over the ward icon on these window it will display the remaining worth of the ward, but there is a long way from the maintained window to the hotbar to cast a new one in a hot fight ;-)

small problems
 

Hi, and thanks for the work on this amazing UI. I have 2 small problems at the moment:

1) I cant get the arrows on the side of the hotbar rows up to choose between different hotbars configurations (you know hotbar 1, 2, 3 etc).

2) I cant rightclick on the current active groupbuffs (the vertikal row to the left). This means I cant cancel spells anymore which is really bad for me. Anyone know how to fix that issue? cant get an option to lock/unlock either or any other right click menu. All other windows work xcept hotbars (se 1)

Thanks again, Raukhur

"speedycerv, you are the first to post about it, but I had already experienced this myself. Did you use the recent searches dropdown? I *think* it might be related to that, but I didn't yet have the time to test or fix it."

this happened a while ago, in 2.3, but it did happen from the recent dropdown window, sorry for the slow reply, but it hasnt happened since that one time, just wanted to report back.

also...another question i've been pondering is if there is a way to show the numbers for the hotbars besides pressing f10 twice, it helps me memorize them easier hehe, thanks very much

Oh my, I don't post for a day and already the messages are piling up. :D

Droiyan7, thanks for the report, didn't notice this yet. UPDATE: Unfortunately, I couldn't reproduce this behaviour, it's working fine for me on all font settings.

I know about the placement issue, had some problems fixing this (setting the location didn't work) and not enough time to test things out. All 30 buffs should be shown, though (that's why the implied window is currently larger :)).

Insidius, I don't have much playtime, and I didn't play on april's fools. ;) Anyone have a screenshot or, even better, know which XML this window is in? It shouldn't be eq2ui_onscreenmessage.xml, that one appears to be working fine.

promos, I'll try to reproduce this. I don't currently see how it could be related to the fonts. UPDATE: I couldn't reproduce this with any of the font settings.

labrat, this can unfortunately not be done.

ghostsword, ProfitUI is using the default map window. Maybe you have left-over files in your ProfitUI directory. Try removing the ProfitUI folder and reinstalling ProfitUI.

Taxor, this can unfortunately not be done (I play a defiler myself and will be the first to implement this once SOE makes it possible :)).

raukhur, this question definitively needs to go in the FAQ, if ever I write one, since people keep asking it. You need to set the window options to "Frame & Titlebar". Unless I put the wrong file in the archive again, your second problem should have been fixed in 2.4.1 (and was already fixed in a hotfix for 2.4). I'll check this. UPDATE: The latest version is fine, be sure to upgrade.

speedycerv, thanks for the update. You can still reproduce the crash by using the recent searches dropdown excessively. I'll currently leave it like it is because I suppose that it's not really a problem for most and because a workaround for will be time-consuming to find (the problem is on SOE's end). And the second question, another one for the FAQ: Numbers are controlled by the frame sliders in window options.

Chat windows galore
 

Any idea how i get rid of these chat windows?

You're using an older version of ProfitUI - the display problems with the chat windows without tabs have been fixed for a while. With the current version you should see the [x] to close the window in the upper right corner. Fastest way for your version is to drag the windows into another chat window and remove the tabs that this will create.

I was not able to find this.. so here goes... i am having a problem trying to move a chat window.... i can resize it fine, but cant seem to find the spot to be able to grab it to move... my window is in the lower right corner of my screen and i want to slide it to the left some



can someone plz help.

Guild Window
 

Using 2.4.1, problem being, I can't scroll guild events window. Am I missing something? I used to be able to scroll iut, just wondering if anyone else is having this problem. 500 events and can only see one tenth :( Not that it's fanatically important, but if you could see your way to looking into this, I would appreciate it. :)

Very strange, guild window works fine for me (it's not even modded in ProfitUI) and the chat window as well (Madoron had the same problem a few posts above).

Did it work for you both with v2.4 ?

hmmm... latest profit zip file i saw in download area was 2.2.2... will look into 2.4, but i did find my problem... apparently cant move window with frame and titlebar enabled... set that to none and i was able to grab the window...

Im still having problems with the bar above the experience window.

Here's a pic. Everything else works fine but this window looks run together.
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...EQ2_000004.jpg

I have:

YES Sooth fonts
NO small fonts

I am having the same issue as kasai259. This only happens on my laptop which runs in widescreen. I have deleted my entire UI folder along with the eq2.ini and my display file name. I reinstalled everything and it is always the same.

The latest version is 2.4.1 - the link is in my signature (when it shows). I didn't yet have the time to create a new post in the download area.

kasai259, at least the issue with the large dotted XP numbers should no longer occur in the latest version. Nobody had yet told me that there are placement issues with the top bar as well, but I can fix it in the same way.

Anyone else with placement issues on other windows?

Great work gm9, I really appreciate you keeping this alive. It's getting sleeker and more functional with each release. :)

Any chance of incorporating the map spoiler window thingy? I tried installing it but I never managed to get it to work hehe. Or maybe I just haven't visited a zone where it's active or something.

Thanks Pixi, that's what I'm trying to achieve.

The spoiler map works fine with ProfitUI, I made a post about this in Mother's thread. I won't include this in the main installation but I could post a premade addon .zip once I get around to create a new download thread (I don't have much/any development time at the moment).

Have you tried the latest version of the spoiler, Pixi?

When I updated it most recently, I noticed windows messed up the directory structure of my previous upload. I should really use Winzip, I know... but I try to install as little extra stuff as possible on my machine. And to think I was wondering why I had so many messages about people having trouble installing.

The current one should be structured right for just unzipping in the profitui directory and editting the eq2ui_mainhud.xml per the instructions on the spoiler page.

I don't seem to have the volume controls near the start button from ver 2.4.1. Am I missing something.

I have had similar problems in the past and found out I was installing it wrong. Try re-installing it and make sure you extract it to the everquestII directory so it can add in all the additional folders in the correct places..

If that doesnt help I am afraid I can lend no more help(

Yeah, ive tried reinstalling it various times. Nothing has worked.

Just thought it worth a mention that I am still struggling with the position of the chat windows. I have tested every single other window, and can move everything else perfectly fine! But the chat windows dont like me! I have worked around it by clicking and dragging a chat tab offf of the main chat window, and dragging it into empty space until I eventually found the location I want... Horizontal resizing works fine, but vertical is locked, as is any form of movement of the window once I use "create new chat window". No ideas left here... Ive gone through everything in my directory and UI files, nothing seems to be holding them down! :)

Good luck guys!

i dont have quite the same problem, but it is similar, What i prefer in my chat window, is for it to be a little taller, but i cannot move it at all, i can increase it's size left right and down, but not up, and i cannot move it it up either, or else i would and increase the size downwards, could you tell me what i am doing wrong.

Also Great job, Love this UI thanks!

Guild browser and Guild Window not working , please fix it =(

Yeth marthter. Igors and Igorinas are great hehe. :D

I'll give it a whirl and see what happens. Thanks for the tip. :)

Edit: Reinstalled and now it works like charm. So does /show_window MainHUD.MapSpoiler. Thanks again. :)

ok guild window works now Oo , but guild recruimente doesnt work

but now have a huge problem O_O , was working good but now is broken:



:( help plz

maybe fonts no copied well =s

will try =)

Problem description not sufficient, please fix it. ;)

Also please use the latest version.


Madoron, I haven't forgotten about your problems with the chat window (which I can't reproduce at all), but I have zero time at the moment for figuring out what's wrong. I'll think of something once I get to it.

That would be great. I got it to run at last so take your time, though hehe. :D

Now if only we could figure out where Spiricore has gone so we can spank him back to our darling UI. :p

Would be good to have Spiricore back to update the posts, but I will just make new ones (again...). He never did any development, though, so it won't go any faster on that end even if he was back. :p

I just hope he's well and nothing bad happened to him that's keeping him from posting.

New Profit user here and so far I like it.

Regarding the pet window. Is there no pet-dismiss button? How do I release a pet?

- thanks

/nod - I've been thinking the same thing.

first off i wana say i love the ui it was just what i was looking for from my old mmo builds :) . Now im having a slight problem though. my clock is gone. looking at the screenshots i assumed it was attached to the compass so ive tried dragging that around but the best i can do is get my location numbers. i previously had thorui which used the same clock i think so maybe that has somthing to do with it? any help with this would be appreciated.

Try Alt-C and see if it appears. It's part of the time of day thingy with the moon and whatnot. And yeah, I'm a confused person hehe. :p

sigh i fix something and break another D:

index of infocenter =s

You can just download it separately ( here ) and reinstall it. Should take care of that problem. :)

a few questions
 

i finally got my ProfitUI to work properly
:-)
(thanks to the guy who posted the 16*12 UI settings)
but there are a few things that bug me:

1. where is my LFG button? (i know i can turn on LFG by pressing P, but the old UI did it with a click of one button only. so am i overlooking something? can this be added?
2. where is teh community button? (same story, i know i can access it via eq2 menu, but direct click would be nicer)
3. how can i increase the display size of my bags? currently the icons are very tiny and i would like to have them a bit bigger
4. broker window seems bugged: when i go to freeport broker and select master1 and my class i see all the spells. when i go to qeynos broker afterwards, the master 1 setting is still there, but it doesnt work. i have to reset first.

anyone can help me with my little probs here?

Best,
Pulsar

i got another couple of questions:

5. raid window is all black. is that intended this way?
6. guild chat is a tab in right window half, but i can not type there. how can i make that chatwindow to be typeable?
7. hotbars have sometimes issues when trying to resize them. when i change the icon size a bit bigger the hotbar is not only 1 row anymore but has 2 icons in a lower row. when i try to resite then - even though i have the resize cursor icon arrow - just the camera moves, but no movement on hotbar. this sucks a bit. how can this be fixed?
8. how can i get back my old inventory (with the character model inside?
9. when i click on groupmates there is no more menu option to 'leave group' when i open the right click menu. any otehr options to leave group besides typing /leave?

Try disabling clickthrough on your hotbars (if it's active) and you should be able to resize them. If it's not that then I don't know really.

You can remove the eq2ui_inventory_bag.xml from the ProfitUI folder to get the default baggies (and the bigger icons) back again.

Remove the eq2ui_inventory_inventory.xml to get the original inventory window back.

I think there's a little X somewhere in the groupwindow that you get on mouseover that you can use to leave the group. I'm not entirely sure but I think I saw it somewhere.

1. There is no button. Typing "/lfg" is fast enough. I might add a button and indicator to the player window eventually, we'll see.

2. There is no button. Typing "z" is fast enough.

3. Currently not possible. As Pixi said, you can delete the eq2ui_inventory_bag.xml from your ProfitUI directory to get the bags from the Default UI, which are bigger.

4. That's no bug, but I agree that the useabiltiy could be improved. There are pro's and con's to resetting the list once you select something, though. Not sure what I'll do yet.

5. The raid window displays the raid members (only if you're in a raid, of course). The background opacity can be changed via the window settings.

6. If you can't type in a chat window, set window settings to "frame & titlebar".

7. Right click and unlock hotbars first to resize them. As Pixi said, clickthrough might also be a problem (I don't know how the default 1600x1200 is set up).

8. As Pixi said, delete eq2ui_inventory_inventory.xml from your ProfitUI directory.

9. You can leave the group by moving the mouse over your row in the group window and clicking on the [x] that will appear. Clicking on the [x] in a group member's row will kick that group member from the group if you are the leader. That being said, I'll check the right click functionality of the group window and fix it if necessary.


Btw, it's nearly 2:30 a.m. here and I'm still at work... work on ProfitUI will resume once my time-table allows for it again. Thanks for your patience.
As always, feel free to post any fixes or improvements that you come up with in the meantime.

Epic target classify issue...
 

My guild MA complain to me that ProfitUI's target windows is inconvenient to classify epic target.

I think display epic flag on target windows will be help.(plz, see the edited screenshot)
