Love your mod, thanks! Any chance of getting a spell effects window with the same timer feature as the maintained window? I'd love to be able to see if that poison or ice spell I just got hit with is going to stick around for 10 seconds or 30 - half the time I'm in the middle of triggering something when it lands, and my cure potion is still applying when the effect drops. Other half of the time I think it's about to drop because it's flashing, and it keeps flashing forever. Very frustrating.

No, sorry that information isn't available for us. The spell effects window is going to be separated into a spell effects and detrimental effects window in the next update though. So it will be easier to see debuffs compared to now.

Oh... I just wanted to let you know it wasn't anything in your mod. It was my fault and a quirk in eq2. At some point in time I had turned off the maintained spell display (alt+m) ... and for some reason when creating new character ini files it shows all the windows, and then on subsequent logins it goes back to what a person has turned on or off.

Thanks again for the time and effort put into your mods.

HonorJim posted on my portal:
This is a general Vista problem. Accounts and security are handled much differently than XP. As a limited user account you may not have write privileges for files in the Programs folder.

I don't use Vista myself but you could try saving it somewhere else and then copying it to the correct place after that. Maybe you can change the ownership or security of your UI folder and files or run Notepad as an administrator.

Oh, hey Othesus I noticed that in gm9's version of the Browser window you can maximize the browser window. I like yours but when I reinstalled profit I saw that and said "Hey the all-mighty Othesus should do that!"

anyways, you think you could add that? If not I will do it and I will send the .xml file to you.

thanks

Yes, I saw that in his window and there's a similar function in the Legends of Norrath window. I'm planning on adding it for the next version, but I didn't think it was a big enough feature to merit updating the window yet.

Yes Othesus, all-mighty or not, do some more mods. :)

It's just a simple checkbox drago (<- why does your name sound like droag btw... interesting :p), you could just copy it into Othesus window if you want it there. I also have that on the InfoCenter btw.

There is a funny bug with the browser maximize though, see if you can try and fix it. When you maximize and the restore the size, trying to close the window will maximize it first, so you have to click close again.

Othesus, I was wondering if your persona window will be compatible with LU 40 (Kunark expansion), that is going in tomorrow (November 13)? Right now I am using ProfitUI Reborn with your persona window.

Thank you.

Yes! The persona window is new and improved for GU 40. I haven't tried it for GU 39 so you should wait until tomorrow to use it.

You beat me to having the first GU40-compatible UI up... :p

On your persona window, do the stats for primary and secondary weapons show the delay from the examine window, or by some chance did you get it to show the actual delay when dual wielding? I figure it's direct from the examine window, but thought I'd ask just in case.

Hey, I was first. :p But that just means we're possibly going to have to patch if what's going live is different from what was on Beta. ;)

What he is showing is new dynamic data that gives us this value. I would expect it to be identical to the value shown in the examine window, but that is just a guess.

Err, the primary, secondary, and ranged weapon numbers are exactly like the default window. They're the same numbers you get from /weaponstats, so it's the actual delay (same as examine) and damage (different than examine) numbers. (The numbers for the ranged weapon was bugged in beta for a while but it was fixed in the last week or so.)

and those are different from what the examine tooltip shows on equipped weapons?

edit to answer my own question: yes, they are completely different. I should melee more...

I really need to remember to check all new content in beta... most of my time in the persona window was spent checking factions (and squeeing over the new faction sort thingie) ^_^;;

Thanks for not whapping me upside the head for idiocy.

And sorry GM9, I didn't check when the full UI sets went up. Here's hoping for very little patching over the next week!

Ok sorry, I just compared the weapon numbers in the persona window again. (I haven't really had a chance to play more than a few minutes this week.)

The numbers in the persona window are the same as the default persona window and the same as the /weaponstats command. The delay and damage numbers can be different than the tooltip and examine window numbers due to dual weild and strength adjustments etc.

It's funny, logging onto the beta PvP server and being the only person on the whole server.

Bug with the fog option...
 

I'm currently having a problem where the "hide the fog" option is not showing up at all. I've tried all the old tricks where you go to the world map tab and then back to the currrent zone tab as well as just playing around with the resizing to see if it will reappear. Contrary to what I just said, in city zones it does sometimes show up but there isn't any fog in city zones anyhow.

I like this mod a lot though, so far it seems the closest to what i origionally had before RoK. Thanks for any help.

Xerek

Are you talking about the Show Just the Map plugin? The Map Fog checkbox should act the same as the normal EQ2MAP.

"hide the fog" button
 

No. Specifically the "hide the fog" button on the right.

Can you attach a screenshot? I'm not sure what you're talking about.

Thanks for all the hard work Othesus.

I had a couple of questions regarding the Maintained Spells Window (Size 26):

1. The new Ward/Proc data is great but I've noticed a couple of oddities and was wondering if it's just the way that they are or if anything can be done about them.

a) Monk - Outward Calm (Ward 3720) shows as "3."

b) Defiler - Seeping Eschar (Ward 1112) shows as "1.112"

2. Is it possible to turn the Time Remaining Bar into a Ward/Proc Remaining Bar instead?

3. Is a Size 24 Maintained too much to ask for? I currently use Size 24 for all three windows and would love to add this one to the mix at the same size.

What I would really love is for a single Maintained Window only at Size 24 that Only shows the Ward/Proc Bar at the bottom and no text on the icons, if at all possible.

I'm willing to try the coding if you would be willing to share the knowledge on how to accomplish such a task.

At any rate, great work and thanks again.

1. This sounds like the numbers are getting cut off a little. I don't have any characters with numbers that big and fonts aren't rendered with smooth-type in the UIBuilder.

2. I just tried this and it's not possible to show Amount Remaining with a progress bar. (The bar still shows Duration.)

3. Try this file. I changed the icon size to 24x24 and the text size to 10 point from 12 point. It's easy to remove any text if you don't want it.

Thanks for the response and the file. I greatly appreciate your willingness to help me with my particular picky requests. :)

It's a shame that the bar won't allow for the Amount Remaining as that could prove to be rather useful, at least in my opinion. Maybe I'll post a request for this to be added in the future if that's even something that they would consider looking into. Probably not I would guess.

One last question for you: have you considered adding your changes to the Detrimental Effects window as well? After getting hit with a bunch the other night I thought that it might be nice to have the bar there as well. Maybe I'm just getting spoiled at this point.

Thanks again for everything.

The Detrimental Effects window works the same way as the Spell Effects window. There isn't any DynamicData for us to show.

Wow. Talk about a quick reply. I would bet that you already figured I'd ask something like that and was all ready to go with a response. :)

O'well. Just another thing to request if the need ever becomes more apparent.

Thanks again for the 24 Size version. It works great and the 10pnt Font is perfect for it.

I'm still curious about the other issues that I brought up before that I noticed is still present, which is that 4 digit numbers show as "1.112". I was wondering why the "." is shown and if there's any way to correct that?

Either way, thanks again as this is a great addition to my custom setup.

Can you attach a screenshot? It's either a comma getting cut off or written European style like 1.112,00

I'm and idiot. It's a Comma but it was so small that it looked like a Period and made the numbers look funny with some odd spacing. Now that I know it's a Comma I think that I can live with it :) Plus, I don't think that it's something that you could remove now anyways, right?

Active Quest Helper
 

Looks like nobody has posted here in a very long time. I hope you are still around.

Anyways as you can guess your Active Quest Helper GU_36 needs an update so if you are still alive and kickin...would you mind fixing it please? Here is a screenshot of what it did when I installed it if it helps...

Hmm...maybe it's time to archive some of this old stuff that doesn't work anymore.
