Hi

Is there a way that you can add the enter option when tradeskilling.
Also when I am on my provisioner, in the left hand corner I cannot show my tradeskill xp bar. When I right click to show tradeskill xp, it stays on regular xp. Also as in one of the picture links i have here, when you get to examine a link say like loot, I cannot move that box. When I click on the window settings it does nothing. And also can you please put scroll bars in the chat windows.

Other than that I luv this ui. Nice work. :nana:

Pss.... Is there any way to make that targets target any smaller?

Yea I thought I posted about this earlier guess not. Before you save your ini if you have moved any windows shrink the letter box as small at it will go then move those windows again. It will be apparent which ones because they will move with the letterbox. After moving them back to where they are suppose to be adjust the letterbox again and see if they move still. It took me some tinkering to get them all to stay put but this is the fairly easy way to fix the ini.

Actually the scrolling part of the bar dissappears. At first I thought maybe the same thing was going on with the overflow but even with the scroll bar not visible it was still functional.

Actually its not really dead space if it was transparent I think the inventory slot graphic would show up which kind of defeats the purpose. I just edited the alpha layer. Could edit the RGB layers to give it a color other than black I guess, but yea I see what ya mean about bad incorperation.

Well I ran out of stuff to update for now so I'll leave ya alone. Watch out though that skills window need a good kick in the butt. Those yellowish brown bars gotta go.

BTW great UI :nana: :nana: I've tried the rest. Time to stick with the best.

At the end of the exp bar to the right is a little box u click to change from adventure/tradeskill/guild exp. As for the chat windows the scroll bars are still there that is just a side effect of having so much chat that as the graphic scales down for the chat size it gets so small it can't display the graphic in the minimum size set. I have posted a fix for this and notified the author about the problem along with the fix. You can use my fix until it is changed in a future update. Just be sure to overwrite it each update until they get a chance to fix it as this file is semi frequently modified. If there happens to be an update that my modified version has problems with a more recent version I have included the text which was edited to fix the problem so changes can be made as necessary. It's on post 235 of this thread. As for the target window. It can be resized but they are having issues with it at the moment with most of the custom ui's.

Landiin 07-24-2005 08:23 AM

About the skills window heidrickla go ahead and mod it and I'll add it. Email it to me when your done. I hardly ever look at this window so I didn't pay much attention to it as u can prob tell lol.

I'm starting to code on the conrole panel now, so hopefully with in a week you all will be able to set your presets and create notes with ease.

Kilaer 07-24-2005 08:56 AM

Hi Landiin could you please answer my other questions?


Thank You Heidrickla :)

Map Display Issue
 
The map is sometimes displaying the detail and sometimes not. It will come up with a mostly blank area and just the zone points.

Great work, cant wait for the control panel.

I am having one small issue with the target & implied target windows ever since 1.11.6 or so

both stay in the correct place but not the correct size, see screen shot to see what I mean, I resize them and they stay fine until I log, then when I log back in they are all messed up again.

not sure what is going on, i tried deleting and recreating my ini file, re copying the xml files but nothing working

also the clock doesn't stay showing either, every time i log in i have to also type out the /show_window to get it back - coz i forget the shortcut

any suggestions?

Mine and prob others are doing the same thing:( I don't know what SOE did in LU12 but the target and implied are not retaining there size in this mod and others. I "think" its because the default target is a static size and that they took out the save size code for this window. But thats just me going off and thinking again. I will set it back to where u can resize it and it'll fixe it. I just have to be happy with the way it fits. Next update it'll be included.

If you are talking about in the raid window, group window or the bars over NPC/PC's heads then blame SOE for makeing their ui devs/coders to push out an unfenished product(it's not the dev's fault their hand was forced). If You are talking about the target window, implied window, player window your eq2ui_settings files is corrupt, here you can blame the devs/coders for not fixing the eq2ui_settings bug. I get this from time to time and if camping out and coming back don't fix it I have to revert to a saved copy of my eq2ui_settings file that isn't corrupted. It only happen to me 1 or 2 times and its when I go LD or crash to desktop.

The map isn't my work, its a fine mod by Zonx of the fetish mods. Only thing I did was change the frametype,titlebar and backgrounds to match the over all look of my UI. For issues with the map, I would head over to its post somewhere on this forum.

Laffs 07-24-2005 09:25 PM

I dont seem to be having this problem likes? I havent looked at your code but how far differnet is it from Perdi bottom target windows?

I know there is a problem with the con color getting borked when you camp to char select and log an alt in likes.... I have never been able to find what the problem is with that :confused: Its the tier indicator that sets the con color and i played with putting multiple copys of that on differnet pages and on the parent etc but it dont make no differance.... so I just put it down to duff SoE DD getting sent when you log from a high lvl toon to a lower one.....

Could just do it the old fashion way and right click the chat window add new tab then click on that tab and right click chat options and add the chat you want to go to that tab. Kind of inconvienent but im not sure what problem you are having. You are using the latest version 1.12.2 correct? Perhaps post your ini and I'll take a look at it and see what's going on.

Landiin 07-25-2005 02:19 AM

I have a suprise in the next update for you people who raid. Well it'll prob be better for them that don't raid allot but I'm kind of stoked I made it work lol.

I think its because mine can be sized in the game. I can't remember if yours can or not so that may be the reason. Im just gonna lock their size and nail the correct lingth down.

CSM Player
 
I want to start by saying thank you for taking your time to create such an awesome UI and mostly for sharing it lol. And thanks to all of those who help with it.

I have 2 minor probs atm. First one is the autobank feature in the bank window is not accepting items. When i mouse over the bar and drop the coin or whatever in it I get the destroy warning message.

Second is the CSM. Can you do a breif overview of how to set this up? I cant seem to figure it out on my own :confused:

Thanks in advance

heidrickla 07-25-2005 08:18 PM

Really this is for Landiin but someone else might find it usefull /shrug
Not sure if you know about this one but can add this to your eq2.ini to set the letterbox size so people will stop bugging you about windows being out of place.

cl_letter_box_amount 0.090000
letterbox_frame_visible false

You can set it to whatever size you want in the eq2.ini
If you do want to change it you can find your current letterbox size in eq2_recent.ini

Overzellas 07-25-2005 11:42 PM

Guild Logo
 
Hey Landiin,Love the UI. Was just wondering if a guild name could be put in where it says GUILD LOGO at start up and when zoning? How would I go about doing that? Thanks ( o.O )

You bet it can, Thats what its there for, its just a place hoder for people who want to add their guild logo. Just use the file in images called guildlogo.dds as a template. I didn't add a imagerect so it should use the image size. I havn't tested that but it seems to be the way it is.

Overzellas 07-26-2005 01:43 PM

Guild Logo
 
Hey Landiin,about the Guild Logo I posted earleir.Tried opening file,but it said it could not open b/c it was an unknown file.I'm not very computer literate :D, but tring to learn.How do I open file to put guild name in there?

heidrickla 07-26-2005 04:09 PM

you need something like photoshop to open it and u need the dds plugin from nvidia. Look in the forums for dds help.

Guild MOTD
 
Read page 10 and 11 and didn't see anyone posting about it, but the MOTD button doesn't work. I know you can do a /guild motd <message> but thought I would throw that in and see if anyone else picked it up or if they did, wanted to flame me =)

Thanks again Landriin and you too Heidrickla for working so hard on the UI and the patches/fixes, etc. You guys are awesome!!!

I had the same problem.. this is the fix:

I traced the problem to the EQ Map Auto Update program. I run the auto updater before I log in to make sure I have the latest map files, and there's an option in there where it says "Ask to overwrite MainHUD.Map". I didn't have this box checked and when it would update it would overwrite your mainhud.map file. That's why it looked like it did in the screen caps. Checking this box and NOT overwriting the mainhud.map file fixed the problem. Thanks for your help once again.

Gcrash3 07-26-2005 10:50 PM

Map
 
Thanks alot that fixed that. But it is still not showing the land mass of Lavastorm..Hmm.. I see it under the maps file in the ui but it doest show it in game only white.I even saw it get loaded when i ran the updater. Andy ideas?

Did u run the updater to get all the current files from eq2maps? Also I have found that people that have trouble with the minimizing issue, don't have the option set so it would ask if you want to over write the eq2ui_mainhud.map.xml or not. Because if you over write this file it will FUBOR the map system.

The resizeing issue was a bug or a plan of soe in live update 12. When I update tomorrow it'll be fixed but they will not be user sizeable.

If you want to edit the target window your self sure it can be made to stay up all the time, but you'll have a dead target or blank frames. To make it stay up all the time just null out the the dynamicdata from the target page.

heidrickla 07-27-2005 06:47 PM

Myself and several others have told me they getting the same problem. The information that pops up on screen like when you get a quest update looks like its getting smushed.

Landiin 07-28-2005 03:34 AM

UPdate 1.12.3
 
Update v1.12.3 is being upladed now!

Update 1.12.3

===============

  • *NEW* Now when you zone into a zone that has a raid encounter in it (epic x4) it will pop up a window telling you some info on what mob(s) are in that zone. It’s in its basic form and only 5 zones are in this release. The info for the mobs is what I could remember from doing them and could be off. I’ll will add a way to add raid to the UI via the control panel.
  • *IMPORTANT* There is a new eq2ui.ini and a 1600 x XXXX eq2ui_settings.ini file you should use if your having trouble with placement. If this is a new install you NEED to use this.
  • Made the target and implied target window none sizeable to fix the bug that game with LU12. I also resized them to fit correctly if you have the HUD set up the way its intended to be.
  • Totally new experience window, with new experience bars. Switching from adventure to trade skill experience with the pop up menu works again. You can also switch from adventure to trade skill to guild experience by the button to the right.
  • Added the code to _fetishstyles.xml provided by heidrickla to fix the scrollbar issues. I normally wouldn’t change code from a support mod such as fetish themes but being eXtremeUI uses fetish nightfall Goth and it don’t seem like its being supported any more being the other two have been upgraded to 4.3 for a while now and Goth is still at 4.2.
  • Changed bags to Ger’s 3/4 multiformat bag (inset grab handle, close button; no frame, titlebar, backdrop, dead space). I simple got lazy and tired of trying to get my bags to work correctly and being Ger has done all this hard work I decided to use it till I get back to mine if I ever do.
  • Added heidrickla’s maintained buff timer mod along with butting it a way to turn them off. You can turn them on and off by turning the title on or off.
  • Fixed the third row being selected in the active quest window, really I did this time.
  • Added heidrickla’s mod to the zone teleport window so the first choice is selected.
  • Added more just press enter code to more screens.
  • You can now turn off the labels and bank selector on the hotkeys by turning off the title bar.
  • Added heidrickla’s modified skills window. It comes default with the 3D bars but the other options are in the options folder.
  • Resized random windows to make the even smaller. This is an ongoing quest for me.
  • 95% of the control panel is complete, just working on the XML file reading and writing code. This is the first time I have really coded for XML so it’s learning process.
  • Changed the size of the guildlogo.dds to 1024x256. Also changed all the pages that had this image nested in it.
  • The item examine window now comes slandered with the guildlogo showing. I’ve had so many requests on how to activate this I decided to make it standard that way.
  • As with all updates if you didn’t save you images/maps directory you need to update with eq2map updater. Make sure you have the option set so it ask if you want to overwrite eq2ui_mainhud_map.xml. If you overwrite this file the maps will NOT work correctly.

Atmatribe 07-28-2005 08:07 AM

Hello, I have downloaded this UI a week or two ago, and I love it. Recently I have encountered a problem with the Overflow window, so I come here and read that there is a newer version. When I try to go to the download page it says I'm not authorised to view that page... Any help? I really want to fix that. Thanks.
