Oh' So glad you posted ss, it helps so much:) I see you are using con style 1, I don't use that one and only really tested it once a long time ago. I'll go revisit it and see why its doing that thing it does:P

Ok get the hotfix again(added a file), the file you will be interested in is eq2ui_mainhuid_chatoptions.xml. See if that fixes your trouble.

Its working on mine but then there is a lot of changes on mine that will go live tonight. but hopefully this will get you up and going untill then.

Yay, found out what it was! :)

I found out what it was... It's the window tou reserved for the 4 raid group boxes. I clicked off each of the 4 raid buttons, and it seems to be gone, but the blank window is still there. If I click the word "Raid" then it switches to Red, and is still there, then if I click it again, it turns Green, and the blank window is gone :)

:cool:

A suggestion: Could you make a routine that checks if the 4 Raid boxes are clicked off, and then automatically turn off the window, and turn the Raid text Green?

Oh good job:)

As for you suggestion I would like nothign more then to be able to do that. However we are limited to simple if statemnets. can't check multible things at once:( I'll work on the raid window a bit more to see what I can do with it.

Xeli 09-11-2005 04:31 PM

If you turn the title off on the page it will unhide the current Powerbar.

Dija 09-12-2005 01:54 AM

I noticed the "I" button's description to invite your target actually reads "Infite" your target.

I'm really impressed with UI. However, I would like to see a less intrusive zoning model. One that does't scream extremeUI while zoning, and have more of a blended EQ theme.

Also, is there a way to remove "GUILD LOGO" from the UI? Thanks!!

infite was fixed 2 pathes ago, see my sign for a link to the hotfix post, Page 3 I think.

A transparent guildlogo.dds image should do the trick.

Gravdigr 09-12-2005 07:49 AM

Hi

Found my missing implied target window from a few pages back, it was buried.

And I have to tell you this UI is hot, every guildmate that sees a screenshot I post asks about it then installs it.

I haven't downloaded the newest update yet due to the new bar you added. But did you ever add the sort button to the knowledge book yet? Also is there a way I can go back to your old HO window. I don't like the vertical one and I think I saw someone here mention they put your old one in the new version.

Thanks for all the work :D

Varkas 09-12-2005 12:41 PM

Aweomse work i gotta say =) very nice ui...

1 thing i noticed is i still cant change the "names" of tab in the chat windows , curently they display tab1 tab2 etc...id love to rename them to raid chat , groupchat etc...

And i personally dont feel the need to have the journal quest help window up all the time , alt-j isnt working to take it off like it does on default ui , anyway u can look into that ?

Thanks and great job again !

UI Crashes when right clicking Spell Effect items
 
I'm a curious player, when I have a debuff, or buff I like to right click it and see the effect in the Spell Effects bar. When I do this after installing Extreme UI v2 I always crash. This is very annoying since it leaves me unable to relog on for several minutes. Please let me know if this is a known issue, and is it fixable?

Hmm If that is cone the Effects bar will not fit into place and you would lose your stat strip.

Howerver if you just must have it gone to a search on the file eq2ui_journal_activequest.xml ( i think) for onhide='visible=true' and take 'visible=ture' out.

Never had any one say they crashed from that.

How much ram do you have? so I can try to mirror you setup and make my system crash.

This happens to me too on live, every time. However I also play on beta (the exact same ui folder copied over) and it works just fine so try it again once LU13 goes live (6 hour update /grumble) tomorrow and see if it still happen

bootstrap1969 09-12-2005 11:30 PM

love the self installer

Hmm How did you get 5 chat windows? :eek:

Any way, turn on the titlebar and it will show the close button in the bottom right.(in the chat input field)

Landiin 09-13-2005 01:50 AM

Ok 2.13.LIVE is waiting on an admin to aprove it, then you'll be able to download it.

Note to the 1024 people: The servers went down just as I was getting done with the 1024 ui_settings.ini so it may or may not be all positioned correctly. I do how ever feel you will like what how I did it.

After I messed with it and messed with it and couln't come up with any good way to resize, remode or ect.. to any window, I loaded up the default and thats when the idea hit me:) All windows are standered but there is a twist you'll just have to see. Let me know if the settings file is jacked because I dont' know at what point The servers went down while placing the windows.

Wish I could of updated the the screen shots but SOE was faster then me.

Also You CANNOT use your old background:( :eek: I'll start work on them soon. :) :nana: :D

Vanyari 09-13-2005 06:09 PM

Every time I login with the UI installed I crash to desktop. If I remove the UI and boot with the defaults I'm ok. Anyone else having this issue?

Screen size on this PC is 1280 x 1024 and I just redownloaded the latest version of eXtreme just to be sure I had the newest stuff.

Any help GREATLY appreciated

Mythix 09-13-2005 06:10 PM

Ok not sure if this has something to do with my resolution or something. I am using a 1280x1024 setting. downloaded, installed and everything works great but when game first loads the screen is blurry with dark areas. To fix it I must resize my letterbox bars then click ok for the screen to adjust correctly. After that everything works as it should. This happends every time I log into game.

Any fixes for this or is it something Im doing wrong?

bakes 09-13-2005 07:13 PM

Is it just me or does the knowledge book not close?

Bubbler 09-13-2005 07:33 PM

Spell/Combat Art Window
 
Kick ass UI, loaded in np, my 3rd and favorite version of eXtreme ui yet, nice job!

But hopefully I can resolve this one issue cause its driving me nuts!

When I scroll over my spells/combat arts to mash buttons I have a window come up for every one with a description. Although it seems convenient and may be nice for some, I just feel spammed. Is there a way to turn that off?

Thanks!

PS: Didnt see it posted I hope this isn't redundant :p

Mythix 09-13-2005 07:44 PM

Ok I have been looking through the forums and nobody seems to have the problem I am having. I must be doing something wrong. Does anybody have any idea on what I can do to fix the dark blur problem I am having?

Kenelm 09-13-2005 08:00 PM

Few issues with current version (minor stuff)

1. Knowledge book - windows setting doesnt open windows setting window
2. Maximize knowledge book - half goes on left of screen and half on right of screen.
3. Info button doesnt bring up harvesting Info.
4. Target window shows 100 shadowknight until you click the Con button a few times.

DarkScales 09-13-2005 08:11 PM

New Interface
 
Like the changes just a few problems

The arrow keys for the chat window on bottom and top stop working when you get to the end of the chat tabs.

Knowledge book is still displaying clear so it is hard to read and you can not get to the windows options to lock it or try and change it. None of the close help or window option buttons work.

That is all I found so far.

Great job keep it up
:nana:

Badllama 09-13-2005 09:11 PM

Little problems
 
Cannot close the Guild Bank window. Have to logout or zone.
Cannot see the check marks in the Guild permissions window, so cannot set permissions for my members.

other than that, love it! :D

Mythix 09-13-2005 10:13 PM

Ok found the problem. Its the shader button. Its seems to go on by default when I log on. when I turn off the shader no problems. In order to use the shader again I must move my letterbox around a bit then the shader works just fine. Sounds like some type of bug in the shader button itself.

Thanks

Try deleting the ui_settings file or renameing it and see if that keeps you from crahsing.

Also might want to make sure you uninstall any other ver of extreme.

That is the new tool tip the game uses for spells and ca's. I think you can turn it off on the options somewhere, you'll have to read to patch notes because I don't recall where it is.

1. Yea, SOE changed the window it looks for them 3 buttons. I didn't catch thsi because I always use k to open and close it.

2. It is supose to do that.

3. Will add back in or replace with other function

4. No cluse, no where is 100 shadowknight text in the target window.

the arrow keys for the tab is SOE's issue.

Its ment to be clear, so you can see through the middle of it, target mobs or what ever TS table you have can be in the middle and u spells in the background.

I'll lookin into not seeing the checkmarks.

Nope no bug with the shader button. What is happen is I have no clue, The shader button has defaulted to on since day one. Its prob the way you have another setting. Once you log in, go into option and set you video to one of the three standerd settins then work from there. /shrug.

I am having this problem as well, I tried the Extreme UI a few weeks ago but when I used Alt+ Enter to perform other tasks it would crash the game. I am trying this new version and so far, this is the only problem I can find with it.

Well Hi THere,

Previously a die Hard fan of Fetish Nightfall,

I must say and congradulate you on your latest UI update. :nana: :D

The installer was the first thing that blew me away, lots of TLC went into that, love the layout and the (working uisettings.ini ) resolution specific files supplied ( unlike some other mods - Not nightfall in this case ).

Job well done, :)

THough like Doncool the only problem I am experiencing so far is the ability to move back on chat tabs :eek: ... See attached happy snap.

firesparkz 09-14-2005 03:32 AM

Oh did I say Doncool /pokes doncool in the eyes not to see that last post, :p

I meant I am having the same problem as Cinadien ;)

Kickie 37 monk

oh yeah and everything is a lvl 100 shadownight

sammeria 09-14-2005 07:19 AM

First off thanks again Landiin, Awesome job with the recent installer. After previous attempts with the first version of the installer I went back to the previous version of eXtremeUI, but i knew I had to use it for the expansion pack. So I backup my old extreme directory and installed it, and it worked great, Im glad you got the 1280 x 1024 screen size setup.
A few requests/bugs:
- I am having the same problem with the chat window arrow to slide the tabs left. It goes grey'd where you cant press it.
- I can't wait to get away from that boring back ground ya got :p , when you get the other background graphics done.
- MackGee's Vispack for eXtreme UI does not seem to work anylonger. The main part I liked this for was the different font above PC's/NPC's heads.
Is it hard to change it? Could you give me some details on how to change it if its not hard? I've never messed with this UI stuff before, but I don't mind attempting it.

:D :D :D :D :D

Mythix 09-14-2005 08:41 AM

Thanks for the reply.

As far as the shader button I did what you suggested. I played with the graphic settings and that didnt seem to help. I then uninstalled EQ2 along with extremeUI and reinstalled everything with default settings. As soon as I loged in had same issue. Could this be a hardware issue with the graphics card? I am using the Geforce 7800GTX.
Also if you could suggest some setting in the games options that might have to do with the shader as I am out of ideas.
Second thing is...I see the round day night symbol to tell you time in game. Is there a way to get this to tell you the exact ingame time and earth time?

Thanks so much for your time. I really hope this can be fixed as I love your UI. I really want to get this to work.

Landiin 09-14-2005 09:02 AM

Hmm was the chat window doing that before? Because nothing really changed with that window besides the graphics and thats just a style so no properties where changed.

Mythix If you use the default UI do you have this issue? About the clock I could but bouth are already displayed all the time on the invintory window. If you think it needs it sure I could add it.

Mythix 09-14-2005 09:57 AM

The problem isn't there with the default Ui. I even tried some of the other new UI that have been updated since the patch and have no problem either.
As for the clock ya that would be great. I once used Laffs UI and it had the ingame and earth clock on the screen and it was a very useful tool. Mostly for when you promise the family you will stop playing at a certain time :p

I was giving it some thought and was wondering if my settings for my video card might have something to do with this. I have most all my settings cranked up full for quality on my card. When I get home from work I will relax those and see if that helps.

Thanks again
