Your settings are all stored in a file that is totally separate from the ones you will be upgrading. I.e. it will not be overwritten, once you've installed v3.0 and logged back in everything should be exactly where you left it.
From reading GM9's comments above there may be one or two windows you'll have to nudge slightly to get em to line up nicely otherwise it won't be any different to how it was when you logged off.

Yes

Read the red. ;)

Yup your a day early .. Ver 3 as GM9 stated is for tommorow's launch of EOF .

Compliant release before the launch.. gotta love it.. Awsome work GM9 ... can't say enough working in the blind like that.

ProfitUI 3.0 SP1
 

Yay, a servive pack release (not giving up my 3.0 version easily). Woke up this morning thinking that the video upon character creation would not be visible and I was right. Bah.

You can only grab the fixed file below (you do not need this if you download the main release after this post).

PS: If I had an auto-updater nobody would notice mistakes like this... :p

EDIT: Actually I did put the correct bags in the 3.0 release. They are coded to be not resizable. Are you talking about that release or the 2.9 beta release (where they were resizable, but didn't save the size correctly)?! :confused:

I played around with 8-slot wide bags, but most bags except 32-slot boxes look ugly with those, that is why I removed them again. I may include them as an option however.

Er yeah, Id tried the bags from 2.9 beta but they were annoying, the 3.0 ones are fine, just not wide enough! Heh, I can live with them 4 wide I guess, until you make some 8 wide if you do!

Other guy asking about upgrading...just delete your current ProfitUI folder in your ui directory, download the latest version, unzip it, place the ProfitUI folder in your UI folder and everything will be fine once the servers come back up today.

Don't try overwriting whats in your UI folder already, its better to do a clean install.

Version 3.0 wont work until EOF is live though, and likewise, 2.9 wont work once EoF is live either.

Very nice summary, thanks. Only one thing:

For this release you MUST delete the ProfitUI folder because a large number of files got renamed or removed. If you just overwrite the 2.8.2 release I promise you that things will break.

What you can do is make a backup of your custom favorites, logindata, etc., but need to rename them to have a .txt extension before copying them back.

sorry question answered in post directly before as i was writing this cheers :)

I noticed the new logindata is a .txt file versus the old .xml file...why is that? Just curious.

Just user convenience really. I thought that it makes those editable files stand out and easier to open. :)

I deleted the old ProfitUI folder before resinstalling this version as instructed but moved my EQ2Maps and MapSpoilers folders out first and then stuck em back in afterwards (along with the images\maps subfoder). Will this work ok or will i need to get rid of em altogether and just reinstall EQ2Maps and the Map Spoilers?

Would love to have one too, and would be able to create one. Problem is, I'm a Java guy and most people don't like java (for whatever reason /shrug)
:rolleyes:

I just tried the profit UI the other day, because the Draco UI isn't going to work, and no one supports it now. When I tried it, the one thing I don't like, is the chat window. When I did the install, the chat window fades out after x amount of time. I cannot figure out how to keep the chat window always in active mode.

Can you tell me how to keep it always active? The UI seems to work pretty well otherwise.

You need to right click the chat window, go to the windows slider bars and just push em to the right and they will always be up. I personally allow a bit of fade to see thru with just enough background that it shows over grass etc etc

That really depends on what the EQ2Maps guys did, but I think it will work.
I have nothing against Java (it is GPL'ed now after all ;)), and I think that users will not mind either way as long as it works.

I know that there is at least one auto-updater written in Java available on SourceForge - I had already searched for an existing software that I could customize for my needs a while ago. However, I just don't have the time to take on that project.

So if you want to give it a go to build one from scratch or start off with the existing one, you are more than welcome. Best send me a PM so we can discuss the details.

I tried that the other day, but they would be active for about 5 seconds, then fade out... Even with the bars all the way up. I'll try again after I pick up the expansion and install it and get on.

Theres a Problem with your UI and EQ2 Mapspoiler .. the Spoiler Windows Pops up correctly, but dont display any Data in it.

Ist this an Problem of your UI ?

No. :)

In my experience the spoiler window is always empty when first opened. Switching the map between world and city/zone helps.

nevermind :)

Found this .net autoupdater software.

http://csautoupdater.sourceforge.net/

I am selecting some of option in the control center, work fine until I log out.
Upon logging back on the control center is back to the default option, anyway to keep the option I select?
Thanks

That's why it says in the control center that the options don't save. :p

However, the bottom bar can be disabled via windowsettings, and the player window can be completely disabled by extracting the _Player Window disable.zip in the ProfitUI folder. Target and effects icons are permanently changeable via windowsettings as well.

delete old dir
downladed new
installed
and READY!

thx 4 the work :)

Think I found a (small) bug.

Also, is there any way to make it so the new info on the bottom screen appears without putting the mouse over it?

Also, as you can see, the numbers on the hot bar are a bit off of the actual box it's on. In addition, if it's possible, can you make it so we can have the numbers back on the bottom of the button? I preferred it there.

I cant wait to get on and test out the changes you made since the beta version!
