Thanks for the updates since GU27 Gm9, good job as usual.

Two things:

1) I did some testing with the raid window and moving people around, probably not enough to be exhaustive since the raid wanted to get on and kill things, but so far I've not had any crashes using it.

2) I sometimes notice a problem where maintained spells with multiple word names don't display the full name. I haven't been able to pin down exactly under what circumstances it happens but I can reproduce it regularly. The attached screenshot illustrates... the bottom buff should be Stance: Risky Advance. I've also noticed it with the paladin buff Stance: Faithful Benediction, possibly others but these two I particularly remember. I've made the background opaque so you can see it's not down to the window size, there is plenty of space left for the text to fit in. It's not a big deal since in either case the first word is enough to tell me which buff I have up, but I thought I'd mention it.

Otherwise I'm still loving using Profit, and regularly recommending it to my friends.

Yep, I also have been testing the new raid window and so far have not crashed once while using it.

The only thing I have noticed...and it's only cosmetic really. If you arrange the groups vertically instead of the default horzontally and have it in Frame/Titlebar mode so you can see the group numbers it cuts the 6th player in group 4's name in half along the horizontal.

They're still selectable tho, so I'm more than happy to loose the random crashing and put up with that...just thought I'd point it out :)

gm9 09-15-2006 07:24 AM

Oh joy, good news on the raid window then. I'll fix the cosmetic issue and put the window into the full release then. Thanks you two for testing this and letting me know!

I'll also have a look at the maintained window. Either I did not allow enough space for the text, which I don't think is the case, or this is a bug in the data delivered by SOE.

Thanks GM9....ah....what do I put in that file to be able to camp to another character? The character uni settings?

If you camp to another character on the same account you can do that directly from inside the game. Use this command:

/camp charactername

The file you edit for quick-login is called "_ProfitUI_LoginData.xml". Open it up in a text editor and enter the necessary information - it's pretty self explanatory what info you need and where to put it. Just add your account username, password, what server you play on and the name of your character. Simply copy the line and enter the relevant info for all characters and accounts you want to include. If you have, say, three toons you will need to have three lines in that file - all with the account information and server information along with the different character names. :)

AWESOME! Thank you all so much for helping me out...and having patience with me! :)

Great UI love it!

Midgetoflife 09-15-2006 01:12 PM

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <DataSource Name="CharacterData">
<Data Name="CHARACTER" password="PASSWORD" server="SERVER" username="USER" />
</DataSource>

The CharacterData one....what do I put in there...the rest is obvious...

and do I cope the <Data Name=.... down for other characters or the whole thing.

Once again sorry to be such a noob and thank you all for your help

The one highlighted in red is the line you copy for each character you want on the quick login list. Also note that you will not be able to switch between accounts if you login via the SOE patcher - run the "EQ2.exe" file directly from the folder where the game is installed to make it work. That will also bypass the whole patcher thing, making the login process a lot faster. :)

Edit: CHARACTER = name of your toon, PASSWORD = your SOE account password, SERVER = server you play on, USER = username of your SOE account.

Just in case. :)

EditEdit: You do not have to edit anything except the one highlighted in red. The CharacterData line (<DataSource Name="CharacterData">) does not have to be edited at all.

Minor correction: eq2.exe is the patcher - you need to run Everquest2.exe. :)

Midgetoflife 09-15-2006 03:52 PM

I got it. THank you so much. I have it worked all out now. Thank you so much

Midgetoflife 09-15-2006 04:10 PM

My bad hehe. :)

Anyway, if you land on character select it usually means you started EQ2 via the SOE patcher. Try running EverQuest2.exe and it should work. Also, make sure you entered valid information about the other account in the LoginData file. The correct username, password etc.

Either you made a mistake with the info for the second account (e.g. password) or you started the game via the patcher. If you start via the patcher, you can unfortunately not switch accounts (as Pixi already explained above).

Love this mod and like the improvments i personally however dont use the broker window or the inventory window but since LU27 Inventory window shows a gray box in the middle and not my character.... Is there a way I can make my char appear and perhaps make the box black instead of gray... in the middle. I'll send a screen if needed.

gm9 09-17-2006 09:57 AM

So are you seeing the gray box with ProfitUI's inventory window or another inventory mod now?

ProfitUI's inventory window should work fine showing the paperdoll image in the latest version.

PS: to RainQueen96: The maintained spells window issue was a bug in my code. The next release will contain a fixed version.

oceeye 09-17-2006 11:28 AM

Help!
Ever since downloading the 2.8.2 version I crash when opening the broker window. I've tried deleting and redownloading, deleting .ini file but not sure what else to try. Enjoy this UI immensly!!

Webrene 09-17-2006 08:17 PM

got a question about the persona window...

no matter which character im online, it shows always the assassine background. i thought it changes on itself like when i camp to my monk the persona window shows up the monk background etc. Or is it normal that only the assassine bg is in the persona window?

I copy the backdrops folder in the imgages like everyone said.

gm9 09-18-2006 01:34 AM

oceeye, what was the version you had before that did not crash? You can also revert back to the default window by deleting eq2ui_inventory_market.xml from the ProfitUI folder.

Webrene, I suppose you are playing on a localized server - in that case see my response to Kaldran in this post please.

Woohoo!

One other thing I noticed which is very minor and cosmetic: in the persona window where it shows invidual mitigation vs slash, crush pierce etc, when you hover over the values the tooltip has the decimal point in the wrong place - see the screenshot.

Also a query - why does the class/level not always show on the adventure and tradeskill XP bars on this window? You'll see from my example that there is no text on either XP gauge.

gm9 09-18-2006 03:30 AM

The tooltip is SOE's doing, that data is pushed from the server.

As to the text vanishing - no idea at all, actually, but I'll try to remember to have a look at it. ;)

Thanks i will check if this will help :)

oceeye 09-20-2006 10:20 AM

I was using the 2.7 version with no probs. I've tried to go back to that version including deleting my .ini files but still have the crashing probs when accessing the broker. I've gone back to another custom UI but I'd really like to use yours instead. Anything else I could try? :(
