I DLed it, but I cannot get it to look as good as all the screenshots. Is there anyway you can have a download that is optional to where you can select if you want to use the default UI placements like ThorUI? Because I love this, I just can't get it to look good. :p

Tnanks in advance :)
If these windows use same font as others I have no clue why mobs/object names garbages only in these windows and looks ok in others :-\

More minor problems with Market window
 
Landiin ;

Just gonna bullet them and see if they are an issue on your end or the server side.


1) Logging out with compare window open: if you do this the next time you log in the market window will have been resized to the compare size and will not go back to normal without dragging it to size

2) Sales tab: for some odd reason after you open and close the market window on the sales tab the slide on right will always be at the top, with default market window it stayed at bottom which is where all current sales data was listed.

3) Sales tab : Date and times of sales are being sorted incorrect, I have stuff that sold on the 24th in the middle of stuff that sold on the 26th, I have stuff that sold at 8am listed after stuff that sold at 10am. Take a look at your own you should be able to see it as well and I don't recall it from the default version.

4) General : not sure where this is happening at and how but I know it wasn't occurring until after install, but after logging out after using market window, when I log back in my backpack bags have lost their sticky locations.


Once again thanks for the great UI.

Once again thanks for the great UI.

  1. This is a result of the game saving the window size and location. The only way to stop it is to have the window reset to a set size every time it is open and I'm not sure every one would like that.

    The way it works is; when you go into Compare Price Mode it stores the windows size before it expands to the 2 pane. Then when you go back to then default mode it resizes the window based off what it saved. So if you log out with it in Compare Price Mode it loses that information (no way to save it) and the windows position and size is saved in the <char>_eq2_uisetitngs.ini file that size. So when you reenter the game it loads the values from the uisetitngs.ini file and the window is expanded.
  2. All that is controlled by the game (hard coded). EQ2's UI scripting doesn't support code that will let you control that sort of thing. I'm not sure why it would act other then the same as default.
  3. See 2
  4. There isn't anything in my market window mod that would cause the bags to lose their location. With the new way SOE is doing the market/broker you don't even have to ref anything outside of the market window like you use to have to.

    The way SOE stores the UI data is still a mystery to us. Maybe replacing a window in its group could cause this. Kind of like if you get a new map mod it resets the fog of war.

Go into settings->ui->Client cong and under the eq2.ini group click default and save. Then under that group pick what char you are playing with and what resolution you use and click save. This should put your windows into place.

If you use another resolution besides what I have already made one for then pick one that is close and when in game unlock the windows and slide them into place, things should be close.

You can't really use the default UI settings with eXtreme because it combines the start, player, breath, spell casting and Maintained window all in one. The implied target window is also forced to show on top of the target window every time it is made visible.

Sorry for bad english, hope you understood what i asked :)

Ok fixed the font it should localize now.

Its fixed! Looks ok, great thanks!!!

Now I can play with best UI mod :)

There are a few more font gliches realy but they minor and don't ruined playing.
But to make it clear i made screenshot with all windows opened where you can see other spots with garbaged fonts (squares instead of letters).

These minor, but if you will have time that would me good if you fix them too :)

Thanks again. Now its time to kill a few gnols :D

If you can give me a list of text that dose not localize I'll get it fixed.

Just a note some of the numbers will not localize because they are just images I used because the normal fonts wouldn't align like I liked :P

BornAgainst 06-30-2006 10:02 AM

haha, good idea Landiin
done and works perfect :)
here my small .cmd file
Code:

@echo off

start "" "C:\Games\EverQuest II\UI\eXtreme\AUCP\Loader.exe"
Echo AUCP Started
Echo  "C:\Games\EverQuest II\UI\eXtreme\AUCP\Loader.exe"

start "" "C:\Games\EverQuest II\Advanced Combat Tracker\Advanced Combat Tracker.exe"
Echo Advanced Combat Tracke Started
Echo  "C:\Games\EverQuest II\Advanced Combat Tracker\Advanced Combat Tracker.exe"

exit

thank for tip

Ok, what I found so far ( "[]" means glyphs in place of right letters):
- Inventory window: current zone name

- Spellcast/Harvest progress bar: spellname/Fizzle/Interrupt etc

- In settings tab in Stats/Settings window:
its looks like this:
[][][][][][]()()()()()()()Quality
()Preset1 []Vision [][][][][][][]
()Preset2 []Shaders [][][][][][]
()Preset3 [][][][][] [][][][][][][]

- Expiriens window: Character Class (I see 6[][][][][][] instead of 6 Conjurer)

- Raid Control panel

- Buttons in merchant window and "not for sale" checkbox

- All buttons and texts (except Tabs names) in Community Window

Can't check broker window and tradeskills - not works in Beta yet :)
Most wanted fix I think is Spellcast progressbar font.

Gnobody 06-30-2006 04:17 PM

Everytime i zone into another zone no matter which zone i keep getting in my chat window the following messages,
Teak saw, fishing pole, shovel, pick and trap items need to be equiped.

Also when switching from one toon to another my UI loses its colors going too just green and black colors on the bars for my tons health and other such info.


Thanks Tludian

This is a known SOE problem...search this post you you will see it metioned many times. The only way to get it fixed it to send a /bug report to SOE as often as possible.

Pet window
 
Yes can you please look into the pet window for some reason the buttons do not function at all for me.

orabbi 06-30-2006 08:13 PM

Overflow??
 
Okay I'm a total noob with this whole ui stuff. I've got everything working but I got an item and now it saws that my inventory is overflowing. However I don't know what to do to get the equipment that is overflowing. There isn't an icon showing the overflow to move it. Can anyone help me please.

orabbi 06-30-2006 08:16 PM

nevermind
 
ahhhh errrrmm well..... as it turns out a drink was in overflow right next to my food so I didn't recognize it as the overflow slot. Got it fixed

Sorry, I Don't know how that pertains to the UI.

I downloaded extremeUI V2, but immidiately after I installed it, my AntiVir programm just started and reported the trojan virus TR/Dldr.Zlob.VV.2 in the uninstall/install/exe files of the AutoUpdater.

Any comments on this...?

Raesoth 07-01-2006 05:30 PM

I've decided to switch to my conj for a bit of fun

About a week ago I've dinged 50. But I didn't ... I got the xp and it put me over the 100% mark .. was like 100.8% ... so I didn't ding.. then I was told I had to switch to the default UI to ding .. so did the /loadui default .. killed one thing and behold the ding.

now the same thing happened with 51 .. I had to load the default inorder to ding 51 ... annoying ..

Is there a fix to this? Is this a UI issue or a Sony Issue?

Thanks

It's not a eXtreme UI thing, it's a SOE thing. Chances are if you would of killed that one thing you would of dinged using eXtreme. SOE has a bug with rounding so it will report 100 but you really hat 99.5 or >.

No clue! You may be having something that is attaching to them files on your end. Every update I do a scan with the latest update using AGV. This site scans for virus/Trojans, the hundreds of users that use extreme scans and your the only one to of ever report any thing like this. Or your anti virus prog blows /shrug.

I can confirm it. Its true.

I have seen this too.....but all I did was kill one more thing and I dinged.

And it makes no sense to me why your UI would have the slightest thing to do with the amount of EXP your character has gotten or is reporting back to the servers. If there is it really sounds like a possible exploit to me /me edit UI to report each MOB killed = EXP * 9999999999 then log onto n00b island and bang out a few 70's to sell on SE.

Been doodling with the exp window a bit trying to work in the new AA stats. Try out this exp window and let me know what you think or any ideas.

sammeria 07-05-2006 06:28 AM

Hey Landiin,

Got a question/comment.

With the target and implied target windows. When you have them both up, when they are split [target|implied target] The windows are the exact same size jsut part of the window goes transparent.

Is there any way to make the implied target window resize?

The reason I am asking is that you can't hover over the targets buffs/debuffs and see the mouseover becasue of the transparent window. And if you move them it automaticly goes back to the original setup.

The new broker window looks great too. Keep up the great work.

Oh never gave thought to the tooltips of the target window. I'll set the implied targers main page so it dosn't absorb any input and that should let the mouse over/tooltips work. If it dosn't I'm sure I can find a work around:) Maybe merging these two windows would be a better path, I'll do some tinkering with them.

I have been trying for nearly a day to D/L the Extreme UI setup. I have it on several other pc's, but just bought a new one ( with a 26" widescreen !)....But everytime I try to install I get this error " Error : Downloading the AU. Try again later "

I thought it might have been a corrupt D/L...but I tried deleting and redownloading with no success...

Just for clarity sake; You are able to download the installer exe fine from this site but when you run the installer exe you get that error or you get that error when trying to download the installer from this site?

EDIT;
I just downloaded the installer, ran it and it installed extreme with out any issues.

Landiin 07-05-2006 11:14 PM

I will be taking the audio player and external log parser windows (never been fully developed) out of the AUCP as not many use them and there are plenty out there that can do the job better.

If there are any strong ejections to this, now is the time to speak up!

if it helps any to clarify...when the log displays on install that is suppose to show a list of changes..it gives me a Internet Explorer screen that is blank ( the same one you would get from usinf IE and couldn't connect to a web page )

Landiin 07-06-2006 11:59 PM

Point your browser to http://extremeui.equinoxgaming.com/ and see if you connect/get the log/update note page. This is the page that the AUPC displays when you are on the Extreme tab.

It's almost sounding like something is blocking you from this site. Make sure if any firewalls are activated that the AUCP has access to access the web. All it should need is http port 80.

Also

Is this new computer on the same hub & router the other computers are on? Does the updater work on the other computers?

elfwanderer 07-07-2006 11:50 AM

Yes, I have 3 pc's on the same router...and the other 2 work fine. I just tried to click that link and couldn't get through there either. I will try to allow an exception in firewall.

I attempted to allow the exception. I even tried to allow eXtreme UI as a program exception, I manually added port 80....no go. I'll try to find a solution, if you have any more suggestions they are much appreciated.

Landiin 07-07-2006 12:33 PM

I don't know, that link is just a basic web page so I don't know why it's blocking that domain.

elfwanderer 07-07-2006 02:42 PM

Something must have changed in my router, atm I can't get eXtreme UI to come up on this pc ( kids pc).....I will attempt to figure out the firewall in my router...

Wolffire 07-09-2006 12:42 PM

Landiin I have over the last Versions of your AUCP problem with the EQ2Map update.
If I use the option "updating on startup" in the CP-options, than the map isn't updating and under EQ2MAP-Menu the "update" is grayed out.
But a manual update when I not use the automatic one, works perfect but is circular.
