UIBuilder not showing Harvest info?
 

I wanted to play around a bit with the Harvest window, to see whether I could fix some font display issues I have on my system with it, and learn about UIBuilder in the process.

I load eq2ui.xml, and go to MainHud, then Harvesting. All I see in the WYSIWIG design portion of UIBuilder, however, is the outline of the Harvest window, no contents. I tried this with the Startbutton files as-is as well as with the Startbutton integrated into Fetish.

What am I missing here? Did you use UIBuilder to design the Harvesting window, Goldi?

New T6 harvest window done
 

I have reworked the harvest window with T6 info, and cleaned up some of the formatting. Provided the moderators approve it, it should show up for download shortly.

Missing test
 

after adding this to fetish, i lost all text on in the persona window. the timers also have no test (ie the breath bar has the bar, but no 'breath' text')
-------

helps if i read the instructions and pay attention to whats overwriting what. :D

This is awsome Gumba, can i use it in the next release of my UI?

:)

Ok - I'm obviously doing this wrong.

1) I have a working install of Fetish Nightshade 4.6
2) I copy the start button files into the Fetish folder, overwriting when necessary except for eq2ui.xml & eq2ui_mainhud.xml
3) I edite the eq2ui_mainhud.xml & eq2.xml files as told

The result works - except I've lost the Fetish Nightshade backgrounds. Everything, start button & the rest of it, are in the standard brown & gold.

So what did I do wrong there, please? I appreciate any help you can give me!

Please do! :)

Yeah. It's not really obvious how to get it into current Fetish releases. This will work for any current and future releases, or nearly surely so. I know it works for 4.6.

Goldilocks Startbutton
○ Unpack into Fetish directory. Do not overwrite anything.
○ Grab eq2ui_mainhud_startbutton.xml and replace the Fetish one
○ Edit eq2ui_mainhud.xml. At end of file, before </Page>, add:
<include>eq2ui_harvest.xml</include>
<include>eq2ui_mainhud_notes.xml</include>

You can also replace eq2ui_harvest.xml with my version to get T6 info.

thanks Gumba! That did the trick. The start button and your harvesting info look grand.

Merneith,

glad to hear it. For the lazy people like you and me :D , I just uploaded an addon to Fetish Nightfall that is simply Goldi's StartButton with all the files, and just the files, needed to make it work in Fetish 4.7. Unpack and you're done.

Goldi,

I updated the Harvest window one more time, adding Uncommon (Glowing, Sparkling, &c) info. Done now with screwing around with your Harvest window, I promise :)

I had another question for you though: Do you plan on adding Manastone management and maybe quick-usable-slot management (hex dolls, other stuff) to your startbutton? If not, I may look into ripping those components out of Jaxel and Franken-Pasting them into your work :cool: .

start button
 

lol while you're at it, try to include shaders if you would please !!

Hey Gumba, great idea!

Feel free to add those buttons!

I will add them in the next release with super special thanks to you, hehe

When is your next release? I would love to see it. :)

T7 harvest window
 

Clearly, I'm too lazy to rework any buttons. I can just about handle minor changes to the harvest window, though :D . Accordingly, harvest window with T7 stuff is up. All the "loam" craziness for T1/T2 is in, too, and we're "loam-ready" for T3-T6.

Should be a short while before eq2interface releases the upload.

Hello everyone :)

I have been using Goldi's start button integrated into Fetish Nightfall for quite a while now with pretty much no problems. I say pretty much because now no matter what I change my graphics options to it does not seem to effect performance at all. Is there some way that this could be due to this UI mod?

Thanks!

Kaz,

I don't see how that could be caused by this mod. I can see a potential issue where the quickbuttons for graphics settings selection no longer work; but if you change graphics settings from the Options window, you'll see performance changes: Graphical detail will appear and disappear; and rendering speed will be affected depending on the components of the PC (GPU, CPU, memory).

gumba......i see no one has posted here for some time now....started to use your fetish nightfall start button a couple of months ago...seems after lu24 the zone lockout window stoped working...all it shows is a black window with key icons on the left side.

any chance this could be an easy fix....

I have updated the Startbutton, it is in my full UI (Goldi MMM)

I will upload tonight only the startbutton for those that want to use other UIs with it

The link bellow is for the full UI

http://www.eq2interface.com/download...fo.php?id=3626

Also, the button is skinned to work with Fetish

OK, uploaded the new version.

Instructions are in the original post

The download should be available as soon as Moderator enables it

:nana:

If you are using Fetish UI:
just do not overwrite the above file, and unzip the rest into the UI Folder, and it should work.
Also, edit: eq2ui_mainhud.xml, and REMOVE a line: <include>_Fetish_mainhud_bagstrip.xml</include>
Does this still need to be done to get the button to work?
I installed and did like the read me said and now the start button seems like it is either really slow to pop or like it will not show on screen.

Yes you need to do that

Yes, the button will take a few seconds to appear, move the mouse around and it will do it

I am fixing that soon

complete UI
 

I know this is for your startbutton but Iam useing Goldi's haveing a few problems the statsbar pops up when i log in Goldi's notes say to delete eq2ui_mouseovericons.xml to stop from poping up but i dont have that file and and on inventory window has use button on all slots click it nothing happens like when i click use to cast my carpet

Thanks for any help

Thanks for the assurance that I didn't mess it up.

Hi Lady, that readme is old, i need to update it

The stats window showing when login is a different one, it is one from fetish
Its standard behaviour is to show up when you log, i will post info on the next update on how to make it not show, as default

For now, you have to close that window everytime you log, im sorry

Hi
I'm having a couple of issues.

1) My exp is going DOWN then back up, then down, then up! I have no idea why but it is the integers which are wrong and not the decimals I think. I actually got to 100.9 then killed a mob before I dinged :)
2) The Start button does not appear until I mouseover the "Help" button on the stats bar

My other half is having problems getting the stats bar to show at all.

I've deleted the folder and started from new, just not getting why it's not working. Any help?
Cheers
Deev

The XP issue is on SOE's end, it happens even with the default UI, not really any cure that can be implemented from this end, as for the start button not showing, perhaps the window is set for mousover show??

Thaks for reply. Glad to hear the exp thing is on SOE side. Was doing my head in :)

I'll check the window settings. What weird tho is it's mouseover on the STATS bar causes my START button to appear. On the other machine, the START button is there all the time but can't get the STATS bar to show.

Hope that clarified :)

well lu 27 completely broke this....as soon as you mouse over the startbuttons to bring it up it crashes the eq2 client.

is there any way to make it visible from the start instead of invisable.

update.....found out that just removing the eq mainhud start button from the files fixes the crashing problem for now...atleast till goldi,s startbuttom gets fixed.

Unfortunatelly yes, patch 27 broke all UIs that use inventory in some way, like my start button

A solution for now is to explore your Goldi UI folder, and delete the file: "eq2ui_mainhud_startbutton.xml", or rename it


I am looking for a solution, and will keep you all informed

I have posted a temporary fix.

For those that dont know: SOE's Patch #27 broke several UIs that use some form of inventory (start buttons with special functions use it, like Goldi's). These UIs are crashing people to desktop.

This patch will address the crash. The only downside is that all Inventory Slots (like charm slots, food and drink...), will not work. All the other buttons work though.
I am working on a 100% solution.

thank you for the update. I noticed that everything seems to be working except when I tried to bring up the startbutton it woudl crash. I hope this takes care of the problem. Keep up the good work.

vid preset area all white?
 

on mine the vid preset area is all white.. the buttons are there jsut cant see them the ywork if i mouse over and tooltip comes uptelling me what area iam over but no visual buttons to click on.... the volume area is showing solid black not sure what ia mdoing wrong

I'm getting an error when trying to download that attachment:

Ditto on error trying to use posted attachment.

Hmmm...why does my UI do this?
 

Goldi,
Many thanks for the mod, I use it all the time and feel like I am not really playing without it. Of late I have a strange graphic glitch that I need help with. The area on the right of the startbutton UI is blank for me. This is the area that holds the presets for video....the screen is white. Any suggestions? I will try to post a picture of it. I do not use any other mods so it should not be a compatibility problem.

D.

Maybe just a Bug Have ya tried redownloading the whole UI ? Delete current 1st then re install may help ive just d/loaded it and its ok.


Ixoa :)

Ixoa,
Thanks for the reply! Yes, I have tried re-downloading the mod several times and reinstalling it. I have tried it with the LU27 version and the one just prior to that and they both look the same. (Obviously the older version no longer works). I run at 1920x1200....dunno if that would cause a problem.

Deathsong

hey death, do you use it with any other UI?

Or only the startbutton?

If you can, email me a zip file containing your whole UI folder (except sub folder eqmaps)
