Yes, this mod works with all current updates...at least it did this morning. :nana:

I love the store quick search! sooo much more efficient than SOE's


How bout adding a full screen/windowed button as well? That would make checking on other apps easier. ;)

fullscreen / windowed button
 

don't really need one, all you have to do is hit alt+enter, and it takes it out of fullscreen, or puts it into fullscreen

hello i dont know how rude this is going to sound but is there any way you could release your windows with a border specificly your awsome invitory ui i love your ui pices but the flat top and thin border bothers me for some odd reason on a second note for the clock i saw yout that you were saying you dident know how to align them have you tryed either running a timer to align them at the end if thats possible or mabey makeing the clock part of the compass its self
sorry if i sounded rude im relly not trying to be thank you

Trouble with Implied Target Window
 

Ok I absoultely love your UI, you have done excellent work.


Now I am hoping, begging, pleading anything for help with this problem since I am a complete loss at this point.

Everything was working properly for me LU 12 went in and I was crashing. I came here downloaded the update and I could once again log into the game. Yeah !!!! Well now my implied target window is gone. I researched the problem confident that I could solve it, saw your post stating to use the command to open the window. Thought WONDERFUL an answer to my problem, logged into game copied the command directly from the post to make sure that I didn't make any mistakes. Then I pasted into the game, and once again nothing.

Now I have seen many posts stating how they are testing ungrouped, this is not my problem I am repeatedly grouping people I know and having them test everything I try to correct this problem. So I am confident that isn't my problem.

This is what I have tried....

1. Reinstalled the UI, hoping maybe just bad download or something. ---
Didn't Work.
2. Attempted to use another UI.
Didn't Work.
3. Figured oh well I will go back to teh default UI.
Didn't work.
4. Went into my options verifed that my implied target window was checked. It was, so I unchecked it hit accept went back in and rechecked it and hit accept.
Didn't work.
5. Played around with moving windows and moving mouse aroudn the screen to see if it was hidden somewhere.
Huge pain, but still didnt' work.
6. In a pure act of desperation, I petitioned to see if I could possibly get some idea of what was going on. I think they are still laughing since they haven't even answered that yet.
So guess going to chalk that up to didn't work.

So pretty please oh please if you have any suggestions, hints, tips, or even just ideas I would appreciate the help very very very very very much.


Thank you for any help you might have in this matter. And once again I love your LOVE your UI.

There is a file in your game directory called
<server name>_<character name>_eq2_uisettings.ini

rename it to <server name>_<character name>_eq2_uisettings.ini
.bak

Start up your game, all your UI positions should be reset, check to see if your Implied Target window shows up now. If it does you will have to move/size all your windows again and delete the .bak file. if not quit out restore the ini file and try something else.

I had a problem with my experience window not showing up after LU11, deleting the UIsettings file did the trick for me.

also your window might be set to fully transparent, so doing the uisettings fix will fix that too.....

Thank you so much this fixed my problem :)

Thank you thank you thank you

DOH!! :o thanks

SWG is Alt+ESC and it didn't work in EQ.

alt+enter... danka much.

been tweaking OCD's UI and I must say I love it.

I really like your journal mod. Any chance of getting it fetish skinned for use with eXtreme UI?

Re: Large Target and Implied
 

I have used teh Large Target with a smaller implied (I dont use the implied much excpet to quickly see whats what when I do an Assist) But my small implied window is all messed up liek the graphics are 'off' Is this because of a graphic file or some other issue?

If its isnt intended I woud like ot put in a request to use a large target with a smaller implied if you have the time to set upa system as such.

Thank and great work and still goign strong.. grats Jax.

EDIT Reply:
Thanks I will redo them and see if that fixes the problem.

I made updates to the image files and the way the xml uses them a couple of weeks ago. Your best bet is to redownload both sizes and mix and match to your liking. The new large size and the small sized target windows use the exact same image file.

Hello all.

I was hoping someone could help me out with some OCD issues:

- "EQ2" and "Compass" bars

When loading everquest, you see the "default" window placements, of what seems to be the default OCD UI? All seems fine. But then when it reads my <server>_<name>_eq2_uisettings.ini file, and moves windows to relevant places, the Day/Night graphic on the compass bar, and the ammo/ranged graphic on the EQ2 bar get left behind. Is there any way to fix this?

Also, in regard to the ammo/ranged and EQ2 bars, if you turn them off, so they are not displayed, the ammo/ranged graphic and the day/night graphic still remain, and not only that, they can be clicked on.... A fix for that would be lovely.

I apologise if fixes for these issues have already been adressed. I had a look around and couldnt find anything. At the very least, is there a way to change the original default load positions (even the default OCD UI?) of the windows for the compass and EQ2 bar? That way I can move the default load spots to match my custom positions, so the two mentioned graphics wont get "left behind" like they currently always do.

Thank you.

Original Target & Implied Target xml files
 

Any chance someone still have the original ones released with OCD? I'd like to use those if someone could post the files i'd greatly appreciate it.

If there is already a spot to get them a pointer to that would work too ;)

the best player window
 

luv yer player window. crisp and clear with information that's easily reconizable at a glance. if ye could only superimpose the text over the bars i'd luv it even more... well, if that is possible. :)

ye can list me as one of yer fan. keep up the great work mate!

Slight weirdness with the Start Button mod...
 

Heyas...

While I don't use the full OCD experience, I do use a lot of your mods; they are amazing 8).

I just redid my UI and tried out your Start Button for Melee mod. It's great, and I love the ammo slot, but I have a weird glitch with it.

When everything first loads up, the actual inventory icon for the ammo slot is way off to the left of where I have the Start Button set up. The background area for it is still attached to the rest of the start button, and if I mouse over and out of the ammo area, the icon will show up in it's proper position.

It's minor, but I thought I'd check and see if there was something simple I forgot to do.

A finishign touch
 

Hey jaxel i use complete ocd, minus a few parts to make windows smaller, and i love everypart of your interface. Thats aid there is one thing that i wish it had that would make the world of difference, and that would be an inventory like Fetish that can be minimized and cut in half to just show bags and weapons. This mod would be great for all the scouts in game who need to change weapons in a hurry, like on raids and such.

Plz help a brother out so i dont have to mess with fetish id rather stay all ocd.

Thank You!
 

The inventory mod is perfect!

Thank you.

*MAJOR UPDATE as of August, 07, 2005: 6:00 PM EST*
This patch has several small fixes, and a major update to the map interface.

EQ2Map Project: For the first time ever, OCD-Advanced is compatible with the EQ2Map Project! As with any other fullset mod that edits the map window, there are a few steps you must take to get it working. However, I have done my best to make sure that this is as easy as possible if you use the Map Auto-Updater program. Its simple, whenever you run the auto-updater, you must go to the OCD directory, find the file called OCD MAP BACKUP.ZIP and right-click select "extract here". Simple. done. If you do not do this, then the map will not show up correctly the next time you run EQ2.

Player Window: The new player window I made last week is now in the fullset. The fullset features the LARGE size, but a smaller version is available.

Inventory Window: The new inventory window is also in.

Start Button: Added 3 new files in the /video directory, you can edit the last piece labeled "value" in each of these 3 files to change the default sound volumes of Master, Music and Combat. They can be set from 0 to 20, 20 being 100% valume, 0 being muted.

OMG i Fing love you

Perfect except the minimized version is huge .. take up an enormous amount of space any chance on a smaller version like your health bar..I love it tho .. best interface most simple easy to use...

hi there, i tried my hand on modifying yer player window. i hope ye don't mind. i intend it to be jes fer my personal use only. it seems like it's a lot more complicated than i expected :( i tried moving the bar into the text box but i can't see the bars anymore once i get in game. tried playing with the background opacity too but still... twas unsuccessful. and since i moved the concentration elements as well and made the whole window lower i cant see the conc bubbles anymore. since i am using yer target windows as well, i tried to look at it and see how'd ye superimpose the text over the bars but i can't see anything in the UI builder. i am totally lost now. woe is me. hope ye can help or advise. thanks. :)

I feel like I must have missed this somewhere but I would like to configure the custom video sets. I have things the way I like it and I don't want to lose my current settings. I would like to be able to switch them though. I did spend some time looking but I don't see that anywhere.

New window tabs
 

Just wondering if you were gonna add those new tabs on the profile window to OCD, forget what they are called, have to do with city faction and stuff (only in test right now, gonna be live soon i suspect). Love OCD btw, much better than the default UI imo.

Also, could you make a button to lock all windows where they are?, i hate when it lags and my mouse drags the hotbuttons instead of using an ability. I dot even know if you can lock windows down but that would be nice to have.

Missing Popup?
 

I am running your latest "full" OCD UI, and am having one problem:
When I harvest something or craft something, the pop-up window
saying what you have harvested or crafted does not appear.

I get a msg in the chat window, but am not getting any pop-up on harvest, craft, or craft-level.

I have tried deleting the uisettings ini file, and that did not help.

FYI: I also have a "jaxel" UI, containing just selected pieces of your UI (the separately downloadable items), and in that UI, the pop-up DOES appear.

I am pretty sure there is a box selectable in the OPTIONS menu of the game (EQII button) that says something along the line of "Lock all UI Windows", perhaps in the User Interface section of Options(not in game to check now myself)

Jaxel, I have been using your UI for a few weeks now and enjoy the interface but have one issue with it (not even sure if it is your UI or the game doing this).

What is happening is: Whenever someone invites me to group, if I do not select an option on popup it automatically groups me with the inviter after about 5 seconds. Sometimes this is convenient as it saves me a click but other times, a pain... if I am AFK or if someone sends a ninja-invite that I dont desire to join, it can create an unwanted hassle for me and those inviting me while I am away from my computer or simply not interested in grouping for whatever reason.

Is the above issue something caused by coding in your UI or is it now a default act on the part of client-side coding at SOE's end?

If it is in your coding, any chance of getting a workaround posted so this does not happen and it forces me to select yes or no rather than automatically deciding I want to join if I dont decline in under 5 seconds? Thanks.

Thats an option in the game, not quite sure where it's at, but you need to uncheck auto accept group invites.

Default key is also enter when invited it a group.

Greetings,
I just wanted to say that I totally love your UI! :) Everything is working perfectly except one thing. For some reason I keep crashing, the screen will lock up randomly (harvest, running, etc. It however always happens when I try to edit a hotkey -such as an inc message key etc) and go to a black screen, then go back to game, still be locked up, and keep alternating until I get a message box popping up that says:
VPU Recover has reset. Graphics accelerrator no longer responding to graphics driver commands -ATI.

It will tell me that I need to restart the computer, which I do, it seems fine for awhile, then happens again.

Any clue what this might be? We just a re-install of windows/EQ2 etc a couple days ago, (all drivers are updated as well etc.) and have not been having this issue with default UI until this UI.
My husband says it sounds like the UI is sending some script to the game that it cannot find?
Thanks in advance,
"Ritsy" -Antonia Bayle

I'm not an expert by any means, but your error is from ATI, the Graphics card. I know some people have had problems with their ATI cards before, and not sure if there is any solution. Sounds to me like you're using your hardware accelerator, and the game/video card/drivers aren't liking it.

My best bet would be to go to the official EQ2 Support Forums and see if your graphics card is on the list of "troublesome cards." I know there is a list somewhere (unless they took it down) of some cards and possible solutions.

Hope this helps.

I had the same problem with a 9600series video card. You must try to find an old driver, some 6 months or so, IIRC. This solved the problem for me.

Thank you for the replies. pcb98, you were correct on the driver issue, redownloaded an older version last nite and have yet to have any problems. :)

(I was having another issue last nite ((figured out what it was though)) came here, started searching through this thread again, on one of the middle pages -page 6 or so, I came upon someone who had the same graphic drivers issues, and someone replied with a solution. Dunno how I missed it, Boy do I feel dumb now :( Anyways, thanks again!)

How to use video presets?
 

Being a bit unhappy with the way things looked with the EQ2 preset video settings at different levels, I took advantage of notations made at http://eq2vault.ign.com/View.php?vie...ct_id=9&id=208 to alter my settings manually and I really like the outcome.

I was hoping for a nice way to backup those settings and thought that OCD might allow me such with it's start button 'preset video' buttons... but I can't figure out how to use them. Can somebody tell me what these are for in OCD and how to use them?

Ok, I had the same question and I finallly figured it out. I haven't tested this so I will update with more information if it doesn't work. There is a program included with Goldi's http://www.eq2interface.com/download...php?s=&id=3655 so I downloaded it to get it. Instructions are in the readme explaining how to use it. You can configure the settings and then run the program to parse out a custom video file. I am assuming replacing one of the existing custom xml files will change this and get what we want.

dont use that file in Goldi's download...

instead, go into...
C:\Program Files\Sony\EverQuest II\eq2_recent.ini

copy all that into the correct place in one of your preferred preset files. If you use goldi's files, it will **** with a bit of the design and it wont work correctly.

I am having the same problem...No compass shows up, but everything else is okay.
Can anyone explain what I'm doing wrong, or is something missing?
Thanks

Yah, the program didn't work. I tried changing the format back but it still doesn't work.

The existing file has every option listed twice. The eq2_recent.ini has lines that are not in the xml, and there are lines in the xml that are not in the ini.

hey is there a file anywhere that can be copied over so I have your layout? seem to be having some trouble moving everything around with my old layout.

Hi!

I am just using the melee-start button, and I love it. But I have 2 problems.

One is that I cant get the volume turned off when I log on, this drives my crazy and my family as well, hehe.

The second is the ammo-slot.
Whenever I log on or zone the ammoslot goes back to some mysterious "default" place. (Witch happens to be just in the place where I have my hotkeybar.) It stays there until i have pressed any buttons on the startbutton twice. Generally I open and close my bags. Then it pops into position again.

Does anyone have the same probelm? Can anyone please help me?
