Update Notes can be viewed here

Hey Landiin,

Please remove the "Tooltip" issue from your list as Aeromier was most likely correct in his answer.

I deleted my complete dir, reinstalled and the issue seems to be resolved.

Thanx both for your help in this, and I've got my Extreme UI back, yeay! :nana:

Saeedya (Ooopps, sorry for the double post...)

Good news:) The Control Panel is 99%:) Just have to add some error handling and It's good. In its current form, you'll be able to setup your quick log buttons and up to 50 notes ( thats enuff right? ). Now that I had time to set down and write the code, it'll be easy to toss in more features for it. I plan on having every element in eXtreme to be controled from it down to updating you eq2maps and yes maybe even an auto updater:) Look for it in the next update.

There is a couple of draw backs. You will lose you current quick log setting as I had to redesign that part of the page. MSXML is picky about the xml it will parse. :rolleyes:

found one problem
 

found one problem with this new version had to change back to the 2.17.1 problem was every time I would camp or camp to desktop and not use the quick switch to go inbetween characters I would get a client crash error that not only would crash eq to the desktop but would screw up my nvidia drivers to the point of having to reinstall them. Not sure if its happening with all everyone just something I noticed had it do a ingame crash once seemed to be totaly random and know its the upgrade version cus second I went back to 2.17.1 it stopped.

Aye, am having the same issue as Devincean, although my drivers seem fine, just crashes me. Also, noticed the music on/off button in upper left corner of UI doesnt work....well, at least for me lol

Also, do u plan on adding the heritage/writs tabs to the quest journal? Loved that feature on the old UI I used..lot easier than toggling out everytime u wanna look something up for a HQ hehe

Same crash prob as last 2 posts. Reverted.

(nVidia drivers)

Same, camp to character select causing client crash. ATI Catalyst drivers here.

UI Crashing
 

Unlike the others, mine crashes (sometimes) when zoning to Sinking Sands or Qeynos Harbor but never during a /camp. I'm thinking this is caused by something being memory intensive during those times.

I also experience slow zoning whenever I'm going from 1 zone to another. I'm not sure if there's a way to either increase the 'cache' and have it dump the old zone info after zoning into the new zone or have it clear the 'cache' faster before loading new zone info but I'm thinking it might have something to do with the crashing.

I'll have to research that a little further but whatever you can come up with, Landiin, that might help I'd appreciate it.

Would it be possible to make the buttons for bags, etc a lil more readable? The color is too close to that of buttons. It would make things a lil more user friendly.

Couple lil bugs
 

First, let me say this is an outstanding UI. Just couple things I've noted so far: 1) I can't close the waypoint window by clicking the X in upper right corner 2) the group F#s are wrong (F1 selects the 2nd grp member etc). All I've noticed so far. Thanks again for your hard work ;)

Oh, and also same as above 5 posts as well.

Ok, I knew there was something else and it maybe is just me, but the arrow pointer on the map is hard for me to decide which way it's pointing. Would be great if it were not filled in and so there'd be no mistake which way it's pointing. Now, most times it just looks like a triangle to me.

you know... i didnt really think about it, but i don't camp to char select, i do camp to desktop and the game has crashed a lot... weird.

Ok will look into the crashing tonight. Must be somthing in the loading screen.

notice
 

also found that there is a problem witht the ui skin for waypoint window now can't seem to use the x or help on that window had to alt+w to close it down nothin huge but just thought I would mention it.

No more crashes since removing eq2ui_tradeskills.xml (I killed the file because the four twin bars were nor working during crafting).

Anyway - GREAT WORK Landiin ! - Thats the best UI I've seen so far :)

Hmm how strange that the crafting window make you crash when logging.. hmm :confused:

Crashing
 

I too crashed when camping... this is with a total clean install too.... had to reinstall EQ2 and UI, first time camping .. crash

Crashing as well, getting a nv4_disp error.
Trade Skill window is not showing the progress of the combine.


Also, as a hard core Trade Skiller, gonna have to revert back to the previous version till these bugs are worked out.

Sorry Lan, I know your busting your ass for us. Please know your work is appreciated and I am very pleased with UI. Besides a few minor details with having a 1920x1200. Everything has been wonderful to use.

Crashing on the logout save for char select .. runing latest Radeon drivers on a 9800pro 256 card

Update on crashing.. was able to camp to character screen last night (previous post states crash when doing so) but then crashed upon returning to game, while zoning into Q Harbor from Castleview. Thank you for your hard work Landiin.

if you are crashing try removeing eq2ui_tradeskills.xml from the extreme folder. This seemed to worok for RayTrox.

clear borders and backgrounds
 

Landiin is there a way to set a setting for global clear boards and backgrounds. both with and without mouseover.
Also I changed the Black letter box boarder size on the top and bottom. When i expanded them to the max, to show more of the playing screen, it reset back to what it was. Is there a setting to maximze that too?

Thanks
Sameria

In options/ui there is a setting where u can do this I think.

In you eq2.ini removed cl_letter_box_amount 0.135000. Just an FYI, you don't gain any more view area by changing the size of the letter box. The objects get begger the smaller you make the letter box how ever you lose more view area behind the HUD. Uless you make them transparent.

eXtreme UI rocks
 

I think your eXtreme UI kick ass, but where is my pet window, i can't seem to find it's window anywhere, so please help me a soon as possible. Thank You

Try Alt P to bring it up .. its a / \ window that sits above your main chat window

Which brings up one more thing, that I didn't state too well in that last post, is there a global setting for all windows/HUD to be transparent.

Yes as I said, in Option>UI there is a place where you can set the opacity of all windows.. as in one setting.

Thanks Landiin. :D

Landiin,

I'm doing a complete new install of my ui and so far so good. right now Im getting ready to add quicklog add_on back to it and noticed that there is no longer a custom windows\buttonpage directory for the eq2ui_buttonpage.xml file.

I also noticed that there is not a eq2ui_mainhud.xml file anylonger, is this now the eq2.xml file. So I think I just do the "include quicklog.xml.

Will the mainhud_experince.xml file still work with the current version 2.17.2 or will some mods need to happen to it?

2.17.2 restrucherd(sp) the directory tree and window\buggonpage is no longer. eq2ui_buttonpage.xml is gone also.

the qucklog add_on isn't my creation so I can't help you with that. the quicklong that comes with 2.17.2 I can help you with.

If there was an eq2ui_mainhud.xml included in one of my installs it shouldn't of been. As the only SOE core file I include is the eq2ui.xml. If I have to include any file I'll do it through a modual not one of SOE core files.

2.17.2 all addons should work. It's the next major update ( i.e. 2.18.x ) that they will stop working if the auther hasn't made the needed changes.

ahhhhhh haaa I was getting ready to start to attempt to modify the xp.xml file to open the old quick log xml. I didnt even realize you had added it to the camp screen. That is awesome.

I wasnt saying above that you had a eq2ui_mainhud.xml file in the install, but the old add on for quicklog had a modified one there to include the quicklog file.

Thanks for a awesome ui once again.

Ok all u tradeskill people.. try this out, make sure it works and doesn't crash you. Give feed back on it if u want.

When looking at the community screen I cannot look for those LFG or LFW out of the zone I am in because the drop down box fails to show anything when you click on it.

Thanks!

Added to list of things to look at.

Wrathlor u are using a none extreme suported community window or an out of date one. In 2.17.2 this window is not yet modded.

Update 1.17.3
 

Update Notes can be viewed here



If you post issues please include the version number at the begging of the post.

Using version 2.17.3 Dude....u ROCK! UI CP is awesome! Only thing is, even though I used the exteme control panel and added my toons and there servers, when i hit the camp button and go over to switch between toons...none are listed, window is blank. so far everything else looks fine...but only had time to install the update and try the CP. awesome that the notes work as well...just not the character select window of the quicklog. Also, the "Sound On" button still does nothing. I hit it and sound dont turn on or off..just stays same.


Question, since i can find no reference, the Guild logo aspect...how do u put images in there or a logo? can anyone point me to a link or file describing this feature?

Oh forgot to add the include:P

here is a hotfix for the shotdown window

Hi guys! I'm back... well lets just say for now at least.

Hi Landiin,
first thanks again for your good work.

But I have since the last update a problem with the person-info-window.
I can't see or edit my biography.

BTW: At the moment I can't download your last hotfix.
