i tried:

/show_window mainhud.Inventory
/show_window mainhud.inventory
/show_window inventory.Inventory
/show_window inventory.inventory

none of those brought it up

think i found the problem with the missing window Laffs...not sure though.... did you use to have an xml file named eq2ui_mainhud_quickbar.xml file? cause it seems that the mainhud file is asking for one but no file and it seemed to be the one that fits...dunno though...just a thought

Sorry mate I never did anything with that window / file, I will see what is wrong after I get this lot sorted

no prob....was just trying to find out what is causing the missing window....was just me messing around....eh such is life....not a huge thing right now truly...

*waiting patiently cause Laffs Lite UI is awesome*

Update
 

Sorted :)

Thanks for your patience guys it was the font issue that realy threw me and I started to make my own font styles etc etc (took up lots of time) untill it dawned on me lastnight that there was a very easy way around the problem lol ....... So yeh live and learn guys lol


PLEASE DELETE THE ENTIRE CONTENTS OF THE OLD Laffs_Lite FOLDER BEFORE INSTALLING NEW ONE

Yip thats sorted it!

Now, about that quest helper window and making it transparent....

Oh, I been using Jaxels skinned Journal too, its got the writs, heritage and L&L info in it, why dont you assimilate it and thank him?

Madhog,

For some reason I would very much like to kill you painfully, But somehow my life would have a grate void in it afterwards I think, :p

Oks onto your next set of complaints lol

1. Quest helper... post the xml file that you are using here and i will fix it for you, as I am sure your the only guy that wants this lol

2. Yeh I have looked at that and it is a damn good idea .... it would free up a few button slots for a toggle bank bags button and stuff also.... BUT I am not going to copy Jaxels, (oh hold on dont quote me on that, We using a skinned version of his quest window anyways, So sod it yeh oks then I going to hijack Jaxels yet again I guess, Why re-invent the wheel =p)

:nana:

Complaints?? Suggestions! Dont forget who suggested this fab UI in the first place! You only did it, *I* was the genius who thought of it it!

:D

Ok its the active quest window, the one that gives you hints on screen. I dont want any stats in, or the white border etc, just want a clean, empty window that shows details of the quest I got selected. Ive tried doing it meself but messed it up badly. There seems to be more than 1 layer I think, which means nowt to me, and I cant figure it out.

I have the vision, just not the know how.

If I knew where you lived, Id give you a big hug!

Omg a big hug.... a frightning thought lol

As for dont know where I live its bad enough that you know where to find me on here hehe

Oks going to take a look at this and post it back here for you .... Hopefully I will get some peace then lol ;)

That white frame you was moaning about (erm requested to be gone, lol)

Was in the style of the parent page m8 and not in the frame page... that maybe why you didnt notice it in the code...

Anyway just for you its gone now (but keep a copy of this file as it wont be in the next update you will have to keep dropping that one back into the UI every update yourself m8)

Cheers fella! Ill try that out tomorrow cos its late and Im tired.

That should pretty much fix everything into the UI then that Ive asked for, once you add in Jaxels Journal.

....

We cant have that can we?!?

Ill have a *real* good think about stuff for ya to do, no sense in you becoming lazy eh??

:D

Lol...

I going to edit the quest journal we already have as it is realy just a skinned version of Jaxels anyway.... Doing that today..... And going to swap the old info button for a toggle bank bags button insted I thinks.

Tried that file out btw, yes its got rid of the white border, YAY! Now tho theres a black background not the clear one! Boo!

How can I just remove it? Last time I tried the entire UI crashed, tbh Id be happy with just the clear default one!

Delete the file from the UI folder then m8 and it will load up the default one all by its little self ;)

Dammit, that worked hehe. I swear I tried that a while ago, although its possible I deleted the wrong file I guess, but the UI crashed.

So its all fab now....

Whatcha working on next then?? /giggle

Quest journal done now with the HQ's etc ... change the buttons a bit next and thats it for now .... Will post update tomorrow.. ;)

What file do I need to delete to get rid of the 50 Shadowknight stuff? I like the zone loading chat and only want my info to show.

Erm that should only show when you log in, once yer in it should be all you.

You saying that isnt the case?

It does only show when I log in but is their a way for it to just get my charcter info from the start and no use it at all?

Also...How the hell do I get the letterbox to stay off?

That info that you see at the start is just there for getting the spacing correct whilst making the mods, It could contain anything not game related or nothing at all... also its a good 1st indication of somthing thats going to break (thats my excuse anyways lol)

Re. Letterbox

Open up your eq2.ini that is in your main EQ2 folder
and add these 2 lines in below the 2 that is alredy there,

cl_letter_box_amount 0.000000
letterbox_frame_visible false

;)

Just curious Laffy, have you posted an update with the new journal etc you mentioned a couple of posts ago? Not hassling ya, just curious!

Not as yet.. Been trying to get the Effects window to behave how I want it to since they added a volume page to it... but it still wont auto size itself nvm

I may post update tonight though.

I take it you know the guildbank window dont work now? Only one so far I cant load in, any more Ill let ya know :)

Also haveing an issue with merchant windows, dont seem to be able to get to the sell and/or repair tabs ...

Yep I had that problem too, could see the repair tab for example but selecting it didnt help cos it was blank, I just deleted the files in me UI folder that related to guild bank and merchants.

Actually laffy the new default colour scheme is pretty nice, all browny golden, would just deleting the perdigraphics or whatever you use now break the UI? The default windows Im using now for bank etc all use the default colours too, and I like em!

Im on the UK servers... So that means we dont get the updates till about 2 days after you lot.... Hence I dont work on fixing anything untill I have the actual files.

And yes deleting the perdigraphics or laffsskin will not make it use the default skin .... tbh I dont like it anyways lol

Hiya Laffs

Along with the above mentioned things that broke after LU14, I found this today.

Oks guys heres some fixed files

guild bank
merchant
target

and add this line to the eq2_mainhud.xml

<include>eq2ui_mainhud_lotto.xml</include>

before the

/Page

line.


Also it looks to me that they are changing all the windows eventualy to use there new style of coding and window ellements etc.....

That also poses the question!!

When they have finished doing this will they remove all the redundant code?

Basicly ending up with probably 90% of UI's and mods on this site not working :eek: ... in one fell swoop!

So for now no more windows are getting modded by me untill I have finished doing my own styles folder that I had started on a few weeks back, But by the way things seem to be heading its going to hae to be able to run every component for a UI (same as what Zonx did with fetish styles etc ..... I think he must have had a preminiton that this was going to happen at some stage)

:(

You broke the target box! Theres now no HP guage in it! Should we use the old one or was you trying to fix something else on it?

Hmm... strange ... just use the old one then guys :confused: itwas just the alignment thing i fixed with the mana and stuff having 1,000 insted of 1000 for example

Been working on this stupid guild window for hours now .. got it sorted but i dont know why the hell it just wouldnt accept my set up in the 1st place as once i had resorted the scrollbar etc it still was being a problem ..

I think I need to take a step back here and have a good look at where the updates are all heading and try and build the UI so that SoE updates dont break as much windows etc.... Heh , God loves a guy that trys lol

Oh aye the guild window, I take it then you know that when you have a long list of folks, you cant scroll properly down thro the list to see the bottom folks? I kinda got round it by using me middle mouse scroll button.

Least this one is based off the others you do too, and is slimmer, so I assume anything you change in this can be ported to the others?

Outa interest, which UI do you use??

So, i have fix the Problem with the Big Font under the Target Windows, which cut somtetime the HP/MP off two lines.

I hope Laffs will inserted it in the complete Mod with his next Update or so .. I dont have much knowledge of XML Programming, so i dont know it this correct.

Here are the Fix :

BTW.. i Have only Change the Font Size to 13 .. but i Hope someone can correct this with the Original Font, which its better :)

I use this UI of course lol......

Here is another sorta update then to be going on with

Guild
Target
Choice (not 100% happy with this little window so farit needs tweeked a bit more)

;)

Edit... Please let me know if you find anything else wrong with these windows before I update the download folder, guys thanks

Erm. Heh. I put them 3 files in me UI folder. Logged in, crashed within a minute. Deleted the choice file, logged in, crashed again. Deleted all 3 and replaced with original files, crashed within a minute yet again.

Copied the entire UI folder on me missus's PC and used that (was exact same as I was using yesterday anyhow), and its fine.

No I know that dont make much sense.

Also, not sure if its related or what, but I changed one of me notes pages and the notes thingy ended up clear background and had stuff missing.

So, not sure if it was the notes thing or the 3 files. Tomorrow Ill try doing the notes thing without the new files.

No, dont thank me for helping!

/giggle

LU14 files:

1) broke the merchant window (unable to toggle between tabbed windows and defaults to "buy" window).
2) gambling/lottery window shows up as a black square (unable to close)
3) Target health bar missing from target window (however, name of target and con info was visible).

that was all i noticed before I got called away.

I did have the crash issue whilst working on one of those files I dont recall what one it was now but I made sure that was fixed before I uploaded them all it was, was an invalid reference to a page that didnt exist and now that was not my bad programing it was somthing that the UI builder decided to slot in from out of the blue :mad: its getting real go at doing that sort of stuff lately...

So I would say yes your problem would be with the notes page you been messing with missed a </Page> tag or </> out I would guess by the sounds of it.....

Whats that sound I can hear? ........... Its loads of people calling out from WoW wanting you to start playing that again lol ;)

Are you playing on a US server?? If that is the case there must have been some more updates that I dont have as yet.... Soon as I get the files it will be done..

Thanks for all the work man... great UI. Thank's for the update!

In yer dreams Laffy! Im loving EQ2 a lot right now, sorry! :D

I didnt mess with the notes page meself btw, I used the bat file to create as I always do, all I did was change one page to be Inquissie spells, nothing huge, just a 2k txt file before hitting the create notes bat file.
