I got it to work, when unzipping I had Use Folder options or whatever it is, and the Zip was creating it's own folders within my mod's folder. I just manually moved them over to my mod's folder and it is working although I am getting both the modded EMOTE window and the classic EMOTE window at the same time now. Getting close!

Glad to know you got it working correctly.

As far as the classic emote window showing up. That is normal.
If you will read the readme file instructions, the classic emote window can be set to 100% transparent and just moved off screen if you wish.

That's what most people do.

Input NEEDED!
 

Ok everyone, I'm taking this mod back to the drawing board, it's going to get a full body cavity search, high colonic, major reconstructive surgery, and just about anything else I can throw at it.

If you want something changed, or have idea, NOW is the time to post them.

Thanks for your help.

Spaces and Apostrophes
 

I had modded your Emote ver1 and again moved my added code ro your ver 1.1, i have 90+% working but just cant seam to get things with spaces and/or apostrophes to work.

I had planned after getting the languages to all work, was to tighten up spacing a bit so i could make languages 2 columns, and then once the MP3 controlls had been worked out for controlling Combatstats i was going to add them to the far right in ther own column..... but alas the issue with the elvin languages, and the 2 languages with spaces, seam to have beaten me.

Thanks, I'll give it a try also! That would be neat feature.

how did you get the "include>eq2ui_mainhud.emotes.xml</include" to stick?
it keeps dissappearing out of my file as well.

the thing works for me sortof... black text on black window but a click will activate an emote. I feel like I'm piloting the "Star Dive" ship from HHGTTG. :p

I also have other working UI pieces.
every time I start the game it wipes the line & i figger it has to be why it's not working.

I manually moved the files so it's not a folder issue.

OK got it working now
had to coppy all the files over
I had left out some thinking they were not needed
I think it was copying the mainhud.xml that did it

First off, great addon, I love it for Roleplaying.

I do have one small problem. Ever since I installed this,
my Sort Window for my Spell/Skills/Abilities window shows
up solid black. Evrything else works fine, including Mail windows,
the Knowledge book itself, it's just the "sort" window that shows
up totally black.

Any ideas?

I'd hate to have to uninstall this, but I need my sort opotions.

I'm not sure why you're having that *particular* problem, but given that the mod hasn't been updated in over a year, I'm not surprised that you ran into trouble of some sort.

Also, you should be aware that the list of emotes in Kosmos' mod is incomplete, as it doesn't include the various "voiced" emotes added to the game back in the fall.

My guess is that this mod includes an outdated eq2ui_mainhud.xml file. You'll need to edit it to add any include statements missing from the default UI. The sort window is probabl one of them.

Thanks guys..

I think I used the one he included in the download, so that may be it. I'll try to just add the one line he says to include and see what that does..
