Looks like i'm stuck with you again then lol

Oks m8 post that one file here and let me have a look at it pls... Thats all I can think it can be likes...

or

You have used all the files in my past 2 zip files havent you? as I know you like to mess about with stuff lol

I deleted it! Its all working too atm, and I decided I can cope without a spell list seeing as Im 49 nearly.

Oh I didnt touch anything btw, I used the folders you provide and dont edit or generally bugger with anything like that anyhow.

About the only thing I change in my UI is to delete the Journal Helper you put in and to use that other element you did for me with no stats etc just the quest name and place yer in.

great UI Laffs!
With todays update thou it crashes :(
And target bar is still not working right (well as of last night anyways, heh) Thanks for all the hard work!

Installed the update and everything is working perfect. Love the new inventory too! :)

Awsome! So glad it works again!! I was in rough shape without it, let me tell you.

Anyway, any chance we can get some alternate hotbars without the arrows on the side? I don't use those and they just take up space/reduce appearence.

Thanks a ton!

So here are now the Problems ..

The HP/MP Number are Double Lined in the Target and Persona Windows.

This is only when i have Smooth Fonts and Sansf Serif Fonts aktivated in die Options.

Then on the Player Find Windows, i have no Choice to define the Class, Race und Good or Evil.

little problem, I used the SEVERNAME_CHARNAME_eq2_uisettings.ini file in the folder, there was only 2 one said it was 1024X728 other never said what it was. Instructions say there is a 1200X1024, but its not labeled that. I assumed other one is that. Well after renaming it I logged into that character and it loaded like this http://members.cox.net/zargos/EQ2_000000.jpg.

When I understood should look more like this http://www.eq2interface.com/download...ew.php?id=3928.

Tried messing with it to correct it but I cannot even move the spell effect window, only can add or remove it. Plus no background is showing on the compass and time of day parts.

I hate that inventory dropping down from the top. I like just using the default inventory. Can you do that element without the inventory pls??

Add this line to the eq2ui_mainhud.xml file before the /Page tag at the end

<include>eq2ui_mainhud_ammo.xml</include>

delete eq2ui_inventory_inventory.xml from your Laffs_Lite folder and place the 2 files that are in the attached zip file in there.. That will give you the mini false inv window at the top as per usual and when you hit "I" or whatever you use the default Inventory will show up..

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

As for the other problems with smooth fonts and the dropdowns I will take a look soon.... but all was working fine for me lastnight likes.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

The char settings file, You need to change the view on the exp window to frame only for a start off, the rest is just setting the individual windows opacity etc etc...... There is quite a few settings like that, that seem to get dragged up from the last UI's settings that you used as for why I dont know probably some stray settings in the recent.ini .... It is very difficult to make a char settings file that will work on everybodys system as there are so many factors to take into consideration.... So somtimes you just gotta re-size and move stuff about for yourself..

ok, almost looks great but still I am unable to move the spell effects window at all. I moved the mouse all over the place, also right clicking hoping for a menu or something, got nothing. so now looks like this http://members.cox.net/zargos/EQ2_000001.jpg.

so, need to just figure a way to get that spell effect window up and I am good to go.

Just the hotbars need moving over a little to the right if you enable allow windows offscreen that will do the trick...

As for the effects window not sure why your having problems with it /shrug

But heres a surgestion

go to the laffs lite folder and rename the eq2ui_mainhud_effects.xml file to eq2ui_mainhud_effects.BAC

Then log back in game that will give you the default one again then resize and place that one to where it should be set the frame on it then zone / camp

Go back to laffs lite folder and change that file name back to .xml then you good to go m8 ;)

I have a few fixes / updates i am going to upload in next hour or so anyways so i will take a look at the window in question and see if anything is realy wrong with it...

Ok loaded the UI and everything looks great! Only issues I am having is as Eradicator_Z, cant move my effects window. Another thing I noticed which is a hinderance is that if I hit escape..ny target window closes (if i retarget it dont come back up..have to hit alt+t to get it back). If I hit escape again my group window disapeers, and once more it makes my XP bar disappear. Also, once I log out and come back in...my target window is not were i had placed and locked it earlier, nor is my time clock...and lastly my chat one of the chat windows is closed upon loggin as well. All pretty minor stuff..but have a feeling the disappearing target/group windows could put a dampener on a raid lol. Any ideas?

Oks you was right about the effects window problem is I had a left and right grouper in there (not shown) and the new window dont use those as I had expected.... So thats fixed..

As for the clock I know about that just mouse over the compass window and it will pop into position .... That is bottom of my list to redo likes

As for the escape issue those windows never used to do that =( same way as you could click through the raid window before LUD15 as a result the raid window I have had to make untill I find a way round this is .... well..... just blooming crap ..... Only one good thing about all these damn updates is they changed the buttons and stuff to round style as default so that's one less thing I have to change.

Update coming soon then...


P.s the chat window problem sounds like thats a SoE issue... again this one keeps coming back everytime they do somthing to the chat window for some reason.

Yeh I can do somthing with that... but will be a week or so as I am away as of tomorrow evening :nana:

Woah fabulous! Ta for that last zip file.

I was gonna ask if you could split the clock and compass cos it would suit my setup way better, although people like you and my missus that use the letterbox setup (solid top and bottom) may prefer the other version.

In future can you lob that into an *Extra-Lite* sub folder? If people want theirs set uplike mine, screeny attached, I can upload my ini if you want.

Only thing I need to do is to reduce the size of the clock bit to hide the bag icon on account of it being on the start button too heh.

The clock and compass is going to get split now anyways as there is no need to have them linked anymore, since the updates... but not till after next week ;)

Cool :)

I cant reduce the size of the clock enough to hide the white line that goes around the bag and emote icons, its just on the bottom still, no biggie but looks gash! Doesnt seem much sense having 2 bag and 2 emote icons. Doesnt seem to be much point in the emote icon at all but I know you like that for some strange reason *giggle*.

Are you working on the start button still? I recall you mentioning that, you taking the 2 icons off that?

Oh one other thing, can we have the no label hotbars back please?

Just use the edited clock and compass I have just done now as I had a bit spare time to get this out...

No plans as yet to do anything with the start button thats on hold

Next is the hotbars, But if you click on the bank number it will hide the labels as it is already likes..

Yeah I know you can click em, just that when you move something, or ding or scribe an update, the titling reappears.

Yes yes I know, but its annoying :D

Well if you aint playing with the start button for a bit, how about just removing the 2 icons from the clock?

There is no icons on the clock I have uploaded and hasnt been for quite some time now... So go get that and bog off and do some harvesting or somthing in game lol ;)

Erm.

Lies!

The clock Im using is the one you added on here 2 days ago! I gotta be careful in what I add cos you did me some special elements didnt ya. The ones Im trying to get you to put into an Alt sub folder :p

Im gonna make the notes page more useful btw, cant imagine many folks wanting my spell lists in it.

Thought Id add in the Carpet quest walkthro, and the Sceptre HQ from SS. Anything else you want in a *default* note page? People can still obviously edit / amend them but thought a more sensible generic starter would be useful.

Any suggestions for the 10 pages?

conning system
 

great UI i love it way more than all the others. I have one issue though. My target window looks nothing like yours. I have circles that appear instead of the arrows that show on your example screenshot. I have no problem with cirlces, except that they dont point up or down!! LOL i have to hold my mouse over the target window to find this information. also i have a question as to what the con system looks like when you have an epic targeted.

You're using the newer default con system is all. Somewhere in options you can change from that version to the other one.

Alt - O will get you to the options then selectl:

User Interface - Name and Chat bubble - NPC Evaluation - then choose "Detailed (Arrows)"

Oh you realise you can press Alt-M and get rid of the huge icons at the top? They are under yer name in that box anyhow :)

thanks mad dog, thats just what i needed. and yea i know that the maintained window can be removed, but at the time i hadnt gotten around to it yet. I was still too concerned about the conning system. But now thats i have resolved that issue. . . . . . .die a forest warden die!!

he hee sory MAD HOG rather!!!! :nana:

Hoggy, You sure I uploaded the wrong clock? As I dont think I have m8 likes.... I just got back from Crete a few hours ago and catching up with whats been changed / borked by SoE in my absence lol

The clock Im using is the one you put on this thread for me.

Ill just get the latest version you've put up and see whats wrong with that then!

:D

Erm no I wont lol. Just noticed you updated the other one you maintain, so I assume you got plans to update this one too? Or is it all fab?

Now you got me confused lol

Sheesh you melt yer brain on holiday or sommat?

You updated Laffs alt Perdition Bottom TyeJae on the 2nd for 15A and 15B plus some other windows.

You already done this for Laffs Lite or plan to?

Its been done already you dipstick lol ;)

Bah if you made the effort to update the notes on the downloads page Ida known!

Slacker!

Ok think I sorted out your confusion!

I deleted my old folder, then downloaded and installed your latest. I followed the instructions from your post on page 4:

"Add this line to the eq2ui_mainhud.xml file before the /Page tag at the end

<include>eq2ui_mainhud_ammo.xml</include>

delete eq2ui_inventory_inventory.xml from your Laffs_Lite folder and place the 2 files that are in the attached zip file in there.. That will give you the mini false inv window at the top as per usual and when you hit "I" or whatever you use the default Inventory will show up.."

Now this time I didnt put in the clock, cos its not right. Now I aint got that element at all. The one with the Zone name and bag slots and Quest name etc. To remind you, I want to see the zone name, quest name and bag slots. Not that crappy little inventory drop down thingy.

Also, I notice on yer latest version, the buff box cant have its background set to totally clear with no frame.

Fix them!!

Ta :D

small buttons
 

hello laffe i just started using your interface and really like it. I use a hdtv for my monitor so all of the fonts and buttons are to small to make out. using my limited knowlege i was able to adjust the fonts to my liking. i was wondering if ther is any way to adjust the buttons and icons in the game.

Yes the first time! But if I use that clock you put in there, I end up with a clock with buttons on the bottom and not that fab clean one you put in! This time I only put in the mainhud_ammo one in, and left out the clock one, cos Im using the clock you recently uploaded into the latest full version.

That make sense now? Thats why I was getting a different clock than the one you have in the current full version!

Or, is that clock version intrinsically linked in?

Madhog,

Right the old clock you was using actualy loads up the ammo window, where as the new clock does not! So send me a copy of the clock xml that you wish to use and i will make it work for you.... (Then perhaps you will get off my case for a few days you old git ;))

ethean,

Sorry no automatic way to adjust buttons and icons in game mate just fonts as you found out... And for me to do so to this UI would be a major task and it just wouldnt fit right for 99% of the users sorry :(

thanks anyways... have you seen anything out there that just increases the size everything?

i appreachate the consideration

ethean

Erm I wanna use the new clock, the one in the latest available full download. Its nice! Its clean! Its just a clock!
