Reset the "Extreme" UI in EQ2.ini to "default" and that got the update running. Hopefully this might be helpfull to someone! :cool:

Saeedya

Edit after installing 2.19: Are the contextmenu's (right mouseclick on windows) not working? :eek:

eq2.ini shouldn't have any thing to do with the patcher as it isn't even loaded untill the patcher runs the game. It worked just fine for me so not sure why you was having that issue.

What window isn't giving you context menu? Context menu's are working ok on my install, I was able to delete all the new CA/Spells the game was putting on my hatbars, Only looked at the context msg for the carpet in SS and it worked also.

Remove eq2ui_inventory_inventory.xml from the extreme folder to default back to the default inventory window. Remove eq2ui_inventory_bag.xml from the extreme folder to default back to the default bag windows.

Hi Landiin, actually it was all the windows...

What I forgot to mention is that after some time (less than 1 minute) the game crashes to the desktop. After your comment I did the following:
1. Deleted all the files in the Extreme dir, except for the EQ2Map dir, as I thought that would save time (which it did not...)
2. Ran the installer again.
3. Started the game.

After game starts I zone in but the first entity I click (doesn't matter what, NPC, door etc) crash to desktop...

As there's no mention of anybody else having this prob, I assume it's not your UI but would appreciate any comments that you (or others) might have.

And last, but not least: Been using your UI for almost a year now, don't want anything else!! :nana:

Landiin 02-03-2006 05:54 PM

ok do this Saeedya;

In start->Program files-> eXtremeui -> uninstall answer yes to all so it will totaly remove it. Well you don't have to revert back on the uisetting file but thats up to you.

When that is done go into your EverQuest II directory and make sure eq2.ini is gone. If it isn't delete it. the got to EverQuest II/UI/ and delete the eXtreme directory if it is still there. Now that every thing eXtreme should be gone, start up EverQuest II and zone a couple of times using the default UI to insure all is working right.

If the above works, exit out of the game, run the eXtreme installer and rerun EverQuest II and see what happens.

Let me know how it goes, well get you fixed up:)

You didn't uninstall 2.18.2 before installing 2.19.0? Sounds like your running the old eq2ui_newcharscene.xml file.

Map trouble
 
I have a problem since the installer got "improved" a few releases back. If I choose to keep eq2maps when upgrading, I get the standard everquest map instead. If I delete the eq2map sub-folder and redownload it after this has happened, the eq2map is back, but has lost all track of explored areas.
Before the installer gave the option I just used to delete the whole xtremeUI folder and everything worked fine. Should I be doing this differently?

It is asking you if you want to uninstall eq2map so if you answer yes then it will uninstall it if you answer no then it will keep it. In case you answer no, I'm going to check out the code to make sure its keeping it.

While on the topic of the install.. Is there anyway to get a second version without the installer? I would love just a change list of files. I change a few things on the install and would REALLY rather just copy over and or remove files that have changed then to have to modify it everytime you update. I know that for the masses the installer is easier but for some of us that customize it a bit it is really more of a hassle.

LOL Sorry Falaris got side tracked and forgot about that uisetting thing. I'll see about getting it added.

I'll see what I can do with your second request.

wingrider01 02-06-2006 06:36 PM

Might be missing it, will this run on 1280x1024?

Doesnt seem to be what happens. The eq2map folder stays, but the map reverts to standard. Weird thing is that I dont ever remember losing explored areas in Eq2map when I just used to remove the entire xtremeui folder back in older releases and redownload it...?

explored area is stored server in you characters server side file so that being reset is something I can not control. Any way about the map, I may of included the default map in the install on accident, run the auto-updater included in the control panel should download the correct file.

Maintained Spells
 
I'm not sure if I'm having a problem here or if I'm just missing something. I'm running your UI at 1280x1024 which I know isn't optimum, but it's all my monitor can handle. My maintained spell window will show 12 maintained spells. When I cast any more maintained spells, the icons shrink so the additional spells could fit inside the window, but I still only see the original 12. None of the new stuff shows up. It makes it a little tough for me to keep track of my DoTs and debuffs. Is there something I am missing here? Thanks.

Nope when the 12th or is it 13th ( it's been so long ) icon is displayed it changes the size of the icons. Then when that icon is hid the icons are returned to normal size. I'll check the code tonight to make sure it is still working that way. Being a Guard it's hard to test this in game :P.

If any one else is having this issue please post.

abellda 02-07-2006 10:23 AM

Yeah, I play an Inquisitor so I have 8 maintained buffs up all the time when grouped. As soon as we start a fight it doesn't take me long to go over 12 and cause the icons to shrink. There is more than enough room for the icons to display once they shrink, but I never saw any of the new spells icons displayed in the window. I only had 12 showing no matter how the icons were sized. If there is anything I can do to assist just let me know.

Milquetowst Info Center update
 
First, I love this UI, I'm using it in 1600x1200 and it's brilliant.

actually ive tested it in 3200x1200 and it worked there too..some rather large gaps but :D..

oh well..

my question is this : how do I update the embedded version of Milquetowst Info Center ?

Use the short cut key combo to get it back up. I don't know the combo off the top of my head, but you can find out by looking in options.

Toggle the frame or title bar on and off :)

Landiin 02-08-2006 11:14 PM

I'll be AFK for a couple of day, so hope no updates come out and break the ui.

Just want to give a shot out to Pioltman for donating some server space and band width. In the coming weeks eXtreme will start to update it self on a file by file bases :) ( as long as you use the control panel )

BadIronTree 02-09-2006 04:23 AM

This never worked for me either. I always have the some problem listed. Also I can confirm the buttons are missing from the pet window.

Maybe eq2map keeps track of some of this stuff itself? I literally lose whole zones (like Sinking Sands), but ONLY when I update xtremeUI and only since eq2map was added to xremeUI installer. I still update with eq2map front end (for no good reason but habit I guess) - could that be a factor?

Aye, ever since the last update to Extreme I have been having the same issue. Move the HO bar to were I want it, lock it, and next time I log back in game have to do it all over cuz it keeps reseting back to center of the screen when you log out. Am running at 1600 x 1024 myself.

How do you get to view all of your bags?

Raesoth 02-12-2006 05:37 PM

as of LU19 Press B for your Bags an shift+b will do all your bank bags

Landiin 02-12-2006 06:40 PM

No EQ2MAP does not store any of the FOG data or even has any thing to do with it. All that data is server side and hard coded. I would suggest not uninstalling eq2map when it ask.

The issue with not saving UI window positions in an SOE issue not extreme. Post are flying all over the forums here and at eq2players it isn't UI related. The UI doesn't save any thing. The game when it see a change to the UI saves this information the UI code has nothing to do with it.

As far as the maintained icons I'll start looking into it now that I am back.

I only use one chat window so that can go but what else? Ideas would be apreciated.

Oh and heres my one any only suggestion to the Ui author. Perhaps a minize button to totaly minmize the top half of the UI. You know click a button and all the top elements suck up into a strip across the top. Nice UI you have here. Bravo!

Not a bad Idea, After the updater is done, the couple of bugs fixed, and if no bugs are created from KoS, I might be able to get this in.

Broker Window Problem
 
Everytime I search for something in broker window without typing in the name of it, say I am looking for level 60 to level 60 drink and click search, it puts:

Parent.Parent.ResultsPage.Table.ScrollPage.X_rowItemName.LocalText

In the search text box and I get no results. I uninstalled before I installed the new LU19...any suggestions?

Sorry for no updates/fixes lately. I’ve been buried in eXtremeUI CP’s code getting it ready for auto update capabilities. It has turned out to be a bigger project then I had first imagined. The good news is; it’s just about done, all I lack is adding in some house keeping. I’ve hade a couple regular poster beta it but will open it up for all in the next couple of days for testing before I put it on the download page.

Basically I have moved every thing that uses to be in the installer into eXtremeUI CP. You will only have to download the installer once. It will always download the most current eXtremeUI CP no matter when you run it. The installer will install eXtremeUI CP and launch it. eXtremeUI CP will then scan the eXtreme folder and download any missing our out of date files on every start up. I also added an exclude list, so all you have to do is add the file you made modifications to and eXtremeUI CP will not update that file. The exclude list come prepopulated with the guild logo image and the two files for notes and the quick log buttons.

Any way just wanted you all to know I haven’t forgotten about you and where I am at on the auto updater.

Sound Problem
 
Just installed 2.19... Went over 2.18 just great however I lost my sound. Clicked sound off/on button with no results. Any suggestions? Even without sound the UI is awesome.
