you totally installed it wrong, tell me steps you used to install this and did you try to install any additional mods with it that werent included.

What I did was I Unzipped it to C:\Program Files\Sony\EverQuest II\UI as the name fenix, I then put the eq2.ini into C:\Program Files\Sony\EverQuest II. And i made sure the .dds & .tga's were in seperate files.

Would it be better for me to just re-install it? Or can ya help me out?
(Sorry for the delayed response)

the DDS and TGA should all be under the images folder within your custom UI. it looks like its not reading your image files to me, meaning they are prolly in the wrong folder

Well, what I did in the first place was just zipped it to the UI folder under "fenix" and put in the eq2.ini.

But when I would enter the game it would just be the default UI, but with the 3/4th hotbars.

you need to unzip the file , with the file structure intact. Easiest way to do this is right click it and "unzip here" then take the folder AS IS and put it in the eq2\ui folder.

That is what I did, im sorry if I was a little unclear in my other post... I will try this again later and will edit this post with an update.

Need Update For Todays Patch
 

ACK! ok EQII update #8 is not compatable with this UI :(
Please post an update patch ASAP I love this UI.

When I hit U to open Guild HUD ingame I get a message box that says
"You are using a custom UI that is not compatable with this build of the game, please update your custom UI and try again"

won't diplay the new Build 8 guild window at all.

hmmm
 

I dont get that message at all... are you sure you are using the Fenix Arcane UI for your guildwindow? I don't think Fenix changed anything to the guildwindow and it uses the default window.

LU8 is compatible nothing in my UI gets changed from that patch.

EDIT i forgot take the gamedata.xml outta the default folder and put it in my UI folder, thats the other thing that has changed.

Bars?
 

How do you get those black bars on the bottom off?????

Casting window
 

Hellu again. :D

Can you make a nice "Casting" window? :) Everything must be original from you. hehe. I have one casting orb from someone.... But i want original. ;)

help please
 

what is the default key to bring up the casting/breath bar i dont have it???

Missing buttons
 

Beautiful Interface..
I instaleld it today. And everything looks fantastc. Except my Knowledge book... the buttons are gone so i can not switch from skills to spells... the page changing buttons (the arrows on your screen shot) are missing the graphics but hte hot spot for clicking is still there.

Any ideas?
I tried looking at the xml but i cant figure out when its calling for the buttons.


Thanks a million
And damn nice job on the look of it all :cool:

UI Problems
 

I'm having a couple problems, one of which is probably a compatibility issue with Fetish.

Anyway...I'm using this mod, & found a really nice Inventory mod (Fetish6wayInventory v4.0). Once I place this mod in, I begin to face an issue with the spell book (Tabs Abilities, Spells & Tradeskills, and the Close orb vanish...I can still click on them...but they just aren't there). Is this just a compatibility issue (Fenix doesn't work with Fetish?? Or is there some code I may change??)

Secondly, since the new update and release of the Splitpaw Saga, I began to have another issue. The new updates change the Skills window. But as long as I have the Fenix mod in place, the Skills window only displays a few pictures (not all of them) and no words/numbers displaying where my skills are at. (I know that Fenix is the issue, I've completely deleted all mods and the first mod I put in place was Fenix(complete set)...problem lies within the code or its overwriting something...I dunno) Also wondering if anybody else is experiencing this.

I really don't want to havta lose this mod...absolutely love it!! Mad props to those of you who created it!! :D

I have been using your UI since about a month after EQ2 started. I have to tell you that it is the most useful UI I have used. Everything fits where I want it, and it all flows together.

Today, 7-2-05, there was a patch to EQ2 that seems to have altered the skills menu. I now cannot see any of my skills (not knowledge, but skills) would you please do an update to this UI to be compatible with the new EQ2 changes. Thank you very much. You are doing awesome work!!

Fenix UI fix for Skill window
 

Is there a fix for the Skill window in game? Since they added the revised Skill Window the Fenix UI shows the boxes but no skills. Any ideas?

Skills Window Bug
 

Fenix needs a Skills Window update...the new update with the #11 patch causes Fenix to not display anything other than black boxes in the Skills Window. Thanks!

Arremis

I get the same thing where I can't see the skills, was wondering if it was just me, but I guess not.

Skills Window Bug Verified
 

It is the Fenix UI....I verified this by removing Fenix from my EQ2 folder and running in default mode....Skills Window shows up properly....put Fenix back in....Skills Window goes black....take it out again....Skills Window shows up just fine. Just to let you know....FIX IT PLEASE I NEED MY FENIX FIX!!!

Thanks! :)

Arre

Copy and paste the last line of the Fenix EQ2UI.INI file on the the default eq2ui.ini file (the one relating to the tking_arcane elemtent). Everything will work fine for LU#11.

Hi Roark... Can you be a bit more specific with your recommendation please..

I kinda understand what you are saying just not 100% sure of the actual files.. I see a EQ2UI.XML in the fenix archive but no EQ2UI.ini so are you referring to the .XML file as far as the last line to copy?

Please let me know..

Thanks

Since the new patch, the skin is crashing the game at zone load. If I remove the Fenix UI, the game loads fine. Is there a fix in the works for this new patch? :)

Thanks,

DarthofAgony

Same here Darth. I hope there is a fix coming, this is by far the best ui mod and I would love to keep using it

Check the frontpage of www.eq2interface.com, the fix for all custom UI's after today's (July 20th) patch is there, as well as on the forums at everquest2.station.sony.com

Cant get this UI to work
 

Found the answer I needed about adding lines to the eq2ui.xml file. All good now and love this UI!


I have 2 accounts and tried this ui on main one I use that has other UI mobs and get client crash everytime I try to log on. SO I figure I am screwing something up so I tried to install on my 2nd account that has no ui mods at all.

I downlaod the zip file to my ui floder then I extract all file into that folder. I then move the INI file to the eq2 folder. I did not set up the map updater on second account. I also so client crash when trying to log on.

I am sure I am fuggin this up but tried for a while and no luck. Any suggestions?

Will this the best UI ever get a update at any point ?

Some things need fixing after DoF. Great UI BTW:)

Fenix...
 

Folks, Fenix hasn't a) responded in months b) updated this UI in about 6 months. I wouldn't expect anything to be released. Unfortunately, as much as this UI is the very best I've come across, it appears to have died. :( If Taco or anyone else wants to help those folks out that are here by fixing some of the issues that prevent the UI from functioning correctly, please feel free to do so!!! A lot of people LOVE this UI, but are having to scrap it and move on to other UIs they don't really like or want. *Someone* please step up and help!!!

Help me Obi Won... you're my only hope! lol

i have a question that i hope you can answer. for the post DOF launch persona window, i can get it to show up now that i have your mod....is there something i need to do? delete something, install a different window? i want to be able to look at my factions when i want to and i cant seem to do that right now seeing as i get a blue screen o' death (small one lol, goes where the persona window belongs) instead....any help would be GREAT. other than that one problem, i LOVE this mod!!! :nana:

I posted on the avatarguild message boards, though they appeared abandoned. Fenix isn't even listed on the Nektulos server anymore, so I'm assuming this UI is now considered as unsupported (especially since it hasn't been updated in forever).

I've been applying the updates piecemeal as they came out for my personal use.... but I've finally become frustrated enough to take this UI over.

Please note, this will be my first attempt at a full blown UI - all constructive criticism is welcome (but please, have some possible solutions to any problems you encounter. :D )

I expect to have the first "beta" version posted on this site this weekend, hopefully by this afternoon. That version will be basically just updates to his original UI, with all patches, an updated installation instruction page, and the update EQ2Map mod installer. I've also already posted on the T. King message boards, so expect to see some new artwork additions after I finish teaching myself UIBuilder, instead of "hard" coding everything by hand. We'll see how it goes from there......

One Final note.... I'll be changing the name of the UI as well, since he's not supporting it. (I'll make sure to footnote "Fenix" in a few places, so y'all find the new one)

Rawr,
Wulfy

/bow THANK YOU!!!!! i like the UI as is, just i could use my skill and persona window lol. but seein as you are takin over, you can do as you please :)

Beta Support thread located here - UI has been uploaded, and is pending administrator review. I'll post a link to that, once it's given the once over to make sure everything's ok.

Rawr!
