hotbar request
 

Not sure if i missed it somewhere, but is there a way to put the numbers onto the hotbars so that i can use the keyboards quilckly for them????

To get the hotbar with the info you have to right click the hotbar then click on windows settings and set the Frame and Title to frame and titlebar.

Donno if u saw my post on the same subject, but I know i had accidentally right clicked and clicked new chat window and for some reasion it wasn't able to drag the new window into a existing one to get rid of it... my sugestion is if u wanna get rid of the X and close window option could you just put them on there own toggle since u removed hte frame and titlebar option.... you could re add that option and make it so it just toggles the X on and off with titlebar?

Same issue here
 

Hello! I fell in love with this UI some time ago. As for now, my major issue is the chat window invasion: every time i log into the game i see black chat windows, and no way to close them (no X button). Only workaround was to pull them to the main chat windows, and then they "magically" become tabs, wich i can close; but that's very annoying to do every time i log in the game. Also, i read that there will be major changes with the LU actually on the Test Server... (especially for the map, wich will show the quest givers)... planning on updates? Keep up the good work. ;)

I tried dragging the windows into the main chat window and i did get tabs which was good but when I went to remove them, it just put the windows back out on the desktop area.

Hopefully Profit will hook us up with the "X" on the top right corner of new chat windows or the "Close Window" option when right clicking a window..

I have to agree.. the UI definatly is far and beyond any I hvae used in the past :-)

Cya!

Chat windows
 

Hi. I really enjoy this UI. I have one question though? I have opened another chat window and I now am unable to get rid of it. How can I close any chat windows I no longer need? Thanks.

Abellda,

For now drag the windows into your main chat window. That will turn them inti tabs. I was unable to remove thetabs though : (

Hopefully Profit will login and tell us he made it so we can close new chat windows.. That would rock!!

Cya!!

Well I tried this and it worked. I now have the "X" on the top right corner. I just had to set it to "Frame and Titlebar" in the window settings. I copied it from the 1.8c archive..

Thanks for the tip :-)

EQMap
 

Hello!

Really nice work Profit *thumbs up

How can I use EQMap? Do I have to change the eq.ini file?

Thanks in advance.

Just simply click on the mapupdater executable and it will update your maps for you.. Make sure you are using the latest version.. I think it was included in the archive but not 100% sure..

you chould also install eqmap then drop profit into the folder that is made making sure not to copy over the files in there

Pet window and thanks
 

This UI is so proffessional. You should be hired by SOE now! No other UI comes close in cleanness and efficient information. So thanks alot!

I don't seem to get my pet-window up though, anyone had problems with this?

Nother thing I noticed is that I am unable to find the LFG/LFW tool. Anyone know how to brign it up into the viewing area?

Somehow I have two windows that don't seem to become tabs if I drag them over another chat window. They just cover up the chat window I am trying to drop them in. I did manage to get them all tabbed once and remove the unused tabs from there, but upon logging out of EQ2 and back in the windows were back in my main screen. I just can't seem to get rid of these two chat windows. I may just reload the UI and perhaps trying using the file from 1.8c that you mentioned earlier. Thanks for the assistance.

As stated above there is a way actually to get rid of those windows in game. You log in and you get two annoying chat windows... right click on them and select the "ADD NEW TAB" function. AFTER doing that, drag them into the main chat, and they become tabs themselves. Then you can -> Remove Tab. But the damn process must be done every time you log in. Hope Profit gets this working soon!

Ruindur just get the eq2ui_mainhub_mainchat.xml from the 1.8c archive and
copy it into the profit UI directory.. let it copy over the existing one.. Thats all I did and I can close the windows and no windows "Appear" out of the blue..

GL

Thanks a lot, i'm gonna try that ASAP. Another problem i'm having lately is that EQ2MAP seems to have "downgraded" himself to the version without the "toggle POI" button and the waypoint insertion tab on the bottom instead of the top. Anyone helping? (don't know if this issue is interface based or completely independent).

Hey all..I just installed Profits UI and got everything setup how I want it, but I have one question.

Is there a way to extend the length of the Maintained Spells window on the left of the screen.

That way I can see everything and they dont go outside the window that is visible.

Thanks in advance for the help.

BTW, Profit, thanks for the work you do on this. There are not many good UI's out there that I could find, but yours is great!

Kardun

Kard, it's a standard window that's draggable and resizeable. The border's invisible so you might have to move the mouse around until you find the edge though ;) Oh, and of course you have to unlock it before you can do anything to it.

Hallo,

first, that is the best "UI" that it here probably gave ever

secondly, I Has installed up to now still no other "UI"

I loaded me 1.8c and updated just on 1.8d. I had the problem with the time (I can not read it) already before.

And I just changed the EXP-Advertisement, copied the fonts into Windows. Nevertheless, however, actually the superior Exp-point should be also spotted, or not?

Execuse the bad english, writing is not so my thing? Reading it is easier for me ;)

I attached a screenshot with my problems

I can read the time and see that your experience numbers are indeed spotted. Maybe there's something with your monitor or your resolution that's distoring both of those in some weird way that won't let you see them correctly?

ok im trying to change some more stuff and im wondering what the file name is for the bottom bar. maybe im blind or something but when i open the ui in uibuilder i cant seem to find it. any info would be lots of help
thanks in advance

Maybe you understand me wrongly, I mean the small numbers to the right above at the EXP, those ones are only perpendicular striped.

Also you can not read the time correctly, have a look at it once more precisely.

I copied a section from your screenshot to my Screeny

Ahh ok, I understand what you mean by the time now. I'm not sure on the problem with that one, either, because I haven't had it, nor seen anyone else have that issue before.

About the EXP, I do believe they are dotted. However, if you zoom in (I assume you did to check if it was indeed spotted), you can see that it does look vertically striped. I could be wrong, but I think it's just how they look sometimes - with small fonts, you lose the detail that could be easier to see at a larger size.

Tinu, follow what I did above.. that fixed all my problems..

This has been a problem for over two months and it's driving my nuts. Alt-j is not working properly and does not bring up the quest helper. Every once in awhile as I'm clicking on different quests in my journel, the quest helper will pop up on my screen, then, when I hit alt-j it disappears (as it should), but hitting alt-j a second time will not bring it back up. (I'm running 1.8d by the way).

I started an alt and using the same UI everything works perfectly on that character.

Someone please help ;-)

Something might be wrong with your INI file. When you started your alt, did you use the same INI file or did you let the game make one for you and arrange the windows yourself?

I just let the game make me one. Hmm should I delete my main character's ini file and let the game make me one and redo all the windows?

I just installed the 1.8d update on my UI and still dont have an autoattack indicator, is there any plans to add this any time soon?

Anyone else out there fix this on their own? It really causes me problems and would love to know how i could go about fixing it myself otherwise.

Suggestions for the next update:

Hello Profit..I do not know if you are already looking into these but:

1. Is there any chance you can make the group window smaller and more compact.. Like half its current size. I use to use the Draco'Kyn UI w/ T. King Art and I loved that group window. I cannot however just copy it into the Profit folder as it just appears as a black shaded in outline (Figured it was worth a shot lol).

2. With the health/power indicators. Currently they only show your current Health/power and it scales up/down as it changes. Can you make it so it shows the total amount on the right side and the current on the left like this (Without the words "Current/Total"):

Health 4657(Current)/(Total)4657
Power 2196/2196

Then as it changes only the left side number adjusts and the right side stays the same until you lose/gain HP buffs or whatnot..

3. I have the window that is suppose to show my avoidance up but it does not show that. I did notice that when I run my mouse over the top bar where the mitigation is displayed, it switches to resists and such but no Avoidance is shown there either.

4. With the maintained spell window, would it be possible to resize that like the hotbars an other spell effects window? As of right now I cannot. There is no option..

5. I cannot seem to find the LFG/LFW tool icon. Can you add it so we can just click it to bring up the tool.

I know you are a busy person and the lack of these recomendations is by no means a showstopper for me as I will continue to use your wonderful UI..

Just feel (IMO) these changes would give a bit more functionality/flexibility to the UI that all can take advantage of..

Thanks and have a fantastic Holiday!!

new screen
 

sounds like u need a bigger screen .. number two works tho hehe

hmm my screen is set to 1280x1024 which (I believe) is the resolution the UI was designed for. That is the Max my monitor will support. I looked at the screenshots and it looks like mine.. I do not see two sets of numbers.. only one. I have an 18 inch flat panel.

What is your monitor resolution set at?

Still having Problems...
 

... to read the Time correctly.

I now have downloaded the full 1.8d Version and let override all my files, but still the Time-Window dose not show the time full readabel. My brother has downloaded the file too, and have the same Problem. Can anybody help us, is this a problem German-Version-Related? :confused:

Can somebody tell me how i can switch the Time-Version to 12 h?

Please help! :(

ok an easy/temp fix to the time and other images not showing up right is....log in go to window mode log out...log back in and go full screen

Still not working :(

Can someone exactly explain what the commands in the

eq2ui_mainhud_clock.xml

File do? Perhabs I can find the error by myself?

WHy not just use the original time XML tha SOE gave ya?

Now it works!
 

Because thins UI is with this XML and this XML is much better then the original.

I have now the XML modified by myself, changed a bit here a bit there and tata it works great

For those where had same Problems like me, I attached the "Profit18_Timefix.zip"

Eventually it works in the original Language too, and Profit can put it in his full UI. Otherwise please update my file with all changes you make in future and make it a extra Timefixpatch included for German User.

Changes are made:

- Resizes the Norath Text to a size that fit now exactly
- Resizes the Earth Text to a size that fit now exactly
- Resizes the Norath -> Time to a size that fit now only to HH:MM (without PM)
- Resizes the Earth -> Time to a size that fit now only to HH:MM (without PM)
- Rearanged the Positions to be in the Parental Zone

Also I included a Before/After Picture to show what the fix make.

Thats all.

Over and out.

Thanks for all helpings! :D

So has anyone come up with a solution to the stats not showing on the bottom bar yet?

I love this UI and I use it all the time, I've tried other UIs and this one has all the features and looks that I need. Very nice job on it.
Can't wait for the next version.


Side note: For some reason, the "Writs" button in the quest journal only shows half way, so the button is cut off at like "Wri", any idea why its not all showing?

I am using 1280X800 resolution.
