Market Window question/request/whatnot
 

Just like most others, I also love this UI. One question I have though ...

Is it possible, while using the "Market" windows, to have the Class pulldown default to "any" instead of my actual class (which is Paladin)?

My problem is that when I try to search/list items that I have in my vault and my class can't actually use it, whether it's a spell I crafted on my Sage/Alchemist or a drop, it keeps defaulting to Paladin. This of course gives me no results and I have to manually change it to "any" and search again.

Now my skill at coding is pretty much like me trying to get a date with a super model ... pathetic and embarassing. :) So if it wasn't for you and this great UI, I would be completely lost.

Any help would be appreciated and thanks again for the great UI.

-ez-

I had installed some other UIs that i do not use way before i installed this one, they weren't causing any problems before the update though. Also i had renamed the old OCD directory so i could play until i got the OCD update. And then i did a fresh install to a new OCD directory. Could any of this be causeing my problems or is it something else? Because as it stands now the UI completely does not work for me.

i was just about to post about this very same issue. can anyone identify the code that causes it to default to the character's class/subclass? i'm going to be upset if it can't be disabled and made to default to Any. i've looked at the code, and i'm as lost as Ebola.

Hey Jaxel, thanks for the UI, great work bro!!!

With your new release, is there a new experience bar or are you using the previous one? Just asking cause I didn't see one in any of your updated pics.
Will the old start button work with the update? (kinda like that one better)


Thanks again for all your hard work, great UI.

:nana:

Ditto...there are 3 of us that use your great MOD and we all hate the market search the way it is, defaulting to your class and level. If it would default to any and 0-60 for level so when you search for things for prices on your stuff to sell that would be awesome.

Start Button problems
 

I have been having problems with the start button display since yetserday morning. When I first installed the UI everything worked well on two seperate computers. However since yesterday morning the start button does not display anything but the EQII button only on my Wizard character. My Alt character a Shaman has no problems with the display. There is identical behavior on two different machines.

--I have tried the /show window fix .. no results.
--I have tried dragging the button around the screen to different locations .. No results. ( also the button is very hard to drag.. keeps moving pespective on the screen)
--I have completely removed the custom UI folder and restored the default UI and then re-installed with no results.

I hope that some one can help me overcome this issue because the Start bar is one of the main reasons that I use this UI!!

Thanks

Hi there Jaxeel,

I love yout clock and compass Mod, but after LU13 and updatin it, the compass stays white again, any hint whatss the matter with it ?

Thx.

I am having the same problem as Mycale. I'm not sure what happened. I know that I extended the window to show my other jewelry and then put some of it off screen... and now no matter what I do I can not get anything other than just the eq2 button to display. Using my alt ` which is my command to show and remove eq2 button does not work at all for this window.

Ok.. I also am screwing around with Fetish as my base UI but highly modified. Honestly I only like a few components but it seems too much of Fetish is tied into different components. Basically removing one blows up 10 others. Oh well, back to the issue.

When I use the /show_window MainHUD.Inventory it opens something different. It seems that the Fetish UI also has an xml for this. I don't know exactly which inventory.xml is opened by this command but whatever it is seems to be the source of the problem. It doesn't open the highly desired Jaxel mod it instead opens a generic Fetish mod. Seems that if we replace this then we would be golden. So, what the hell does mainhud.inventory open??? :-)

There are several things you can try to fix the startbutton... some work for some people, others work for others... if after doing all this, it still doesnt work... complain to Sony for making a horrible UI system...

• /show_window MainHUD.Inventory
• /hide_window MainHUD.Inventory
• alt+~ (if your start button disappears when you push this, you did not install correctly)
• delete username_server_uisettings.ini

Just thought I'd bump this issue- Any chance of a fix, Jaxel? Thanks =)
And any news on the broker window? If you can set the defaults, that'd be great!

I was having this problem as well. The /hide and /show commands only worked until you logged out. I tried the alt + ~ command and it brought the startbar up and it stayed up.

The next problem I had was the button not staying in place until moused over (same thing with the compass). My suggestion is to place the Startbar where you like and then lock it. Button will not move again.

Now if I could just get the compass to be still this would be perfect.

Glad to see alt+~ fixed your start button. Other people should try it too. The onmouseover thing is how it is.

As for the skills window... I havent seen any problems with it or screenshots of problems, so I cant fix anything if I dont know whats wrong.

If you use Maxthon web browser, Alt + ~ is how you hide the browser. Can you tell me how I would change this option manually? Thanks.

I would really love to have a player window exactly like your target window so that they can stack vertically in the bottom center of my screen. I have tried to figure out how to do this myself but really have no clue. Please oh please hook this up for us Jaxel. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sorry, do you mean the factions window?
That's what I'm having trouble with- Indifferent factions do not display "progress", neither do threatening or amiable.
If you'd like a screenshot, I'll take one once I get home from work and post it here.

Thanks!

Signed .. this is just about making me compelety loose my mind. Updating merchant prices has become living hell.

I'd suggest putting in a second reset button (or a toggle) to switch between [Any Class / Any level] and [Actual Class / 0 - Current level] but please make sure that default is set to Any/Any so that searching from the merchant window will work.

I'm not going to change the default search... with all things being equal, evidence is showing that SOE is going to change the default search to how you guys like it.

What do you guys think about how slim it is?

I love the slimness, jaxel, thanks!
I found a mod, linked on the 3rd comment off the individual piece of the market window, to a version that defaults to "any" and "60" when you click "search" in the in-home seller window.
I'll link to it if I can navigate my way there.


BTW, here's a SS of what I mean about the factions window- I don't mean to appear ungrateful or nagging, but it'd be a really nice fix, the default window is ugly and fat =/ don't want to delete my copy for that...

Delete eq2ui_specialelements.xml from your OCD dir. That will fix your bleeding problem. Sorry about this error, I actually deleted the changes to this file from my custom mod with LU13 because Sony changed the way EQ2 handles this file. However, I forgot to mention that this file needed to be deleted.

[OCD-Adv] Startbutton
 

ODC Startbutton

Jaxel! Thanks for putting all your hard effort into this one. I was really excited about using this mod. The windows seem to work just fine aside from the Notes portion. I followed the guidelines regarding the note content, but for some reason the notes do not show. Specifically, it seems like there is content because I can scroll down, but the background is completely black wit no text appearing. =/ The only other problem I am having with this mod is that after clicking the EQII button, there is a delay in closing it. . . Help?

Jaxel I love yer ui and your chat window inparticular
http://www.eq2interface.com/download...php?s=&id=3906
would it be possible to get aversion of your chat window that was scrollbarless?

thanks

Thanks!
 

Jaxel,
Just wanted to tell you how much my guild and I enjoy your wonderful UI. Thanks for all you hard work and fast updates!

Awesome, thanks!
Again, I love the mod =)

So it finally came out why everyone was having problems with the startbutton. If you are using Alt + ~ and it is still not working, make sure you are not using another MainHUD.Inventory mod from ProfitUI or Fetish. The OCD startbutton is a MainHUD.Inventory mod, I just chose not to put the mod into its own seperate file and I kept it in the MainHUD.Startbutton file. None, the less, you can not use two MainHUD.Inventory mods at the same time!

See! It wasn't my fault! It was yours! =P

And as I said... SOE changed searching on the broker; now defaults to 0-60, no class.

I've been using the OCD UI for a while now, but recently I ran into a problem with some of the windows having a white background that I can't change. Take a look at

http://www.heilig.us/EQ2_000061.jpg

and look at the experience, pet, and compass windows. I can't get rid of the white.

I've deleted my custom UI folder, created a new one, downloaded the OCD package, and reinstalled.
I've deleted my <server>_<name>_uisettings.ini file.
I've tried it with and without the EQ2maps files.

Any suggestions?

Yes, Your missing Jaxels elements.dds file from the images folder for 1 and another image file that contains the background for the pet window as for what file that is called without looking at the code I dont know.... But its still and image file your missing by the looks.

Howdy Jaxel finally got the start button mod to work.
But it doesnt show the icons for equipped items i.e. manastone slot, ring slots etc

Any ideas?

Thanks, Laffs. As soon as you mentioned the missing dds files, I knew what I did wrong. As usual, it's something stupid. I dragged the files out of the archive instead of extracting. All is well now. I appreciate it.

map problems
 

I was just wondering if anyone else was having problems with their map with this UI after DoF. Everything else works fine, just the map is all black and doens't appear as I move around. I have read this thread trying to find an answer but didn't see one.

Thanks for any help

Inventory Adjustment...
 

I'm using most of your UI with many modifications to suite my likes, but I absolutely love your Inventory Window 'Paperdoll Inventory'... it Defaults though to the Slimlined Inventory and I just can't seem to figure out how to switch it to Paperdoll Inventory as the default.

I couldn't find any help already on this and don't see a Readme or anything with these instructions and was curious if you could inform me on how I can make that Inventory always show as the Paperdoll Inventory (with the stats section on the right, which happens to be the only place I found in your UI that shows the character's Weight Limit) upon logging in.

Thanks in advance for the help!

There any chance of getting a version of the start button that works with ThorUI and his autoupdate? I like your layout better (plus you have the unequip macro built-in there that saves a lot of trouble on raids).

Start Button - might have found the cause
 

Hello Jaxel,

I did get the start button to work but had to delete the uisettings.ini file. After talking with a Guildie that had the same problem he said that everything was fine until he accidently hit the "Windows" key and then his trouble started. I think I recall the same thing happening to me. It might be corrupting the uisettings.ini file in some way...

Anyway, just a thought.

Thanks for a very clean UI... :)

A bit more info
 

I also discovered that if you place the start button at the bottom of the screen near to the border and then hit "alt + enter" to enter window mode, that will cause the button to stop displaying anything but the EQ button. Then the only thing that will make it display again is to delete the UIsettings file for that character.

If the button is not near the window border it appears that there is no problem when going back and forth from window mode.

Hope this helps...

A change you might consider...
 

Hiya's

Love your trade skill mod but wonder if you could change it to be more like the one by Caffineboy (which you say inspired you), I find yours to be better :D , but really like the big graphic of effects from Caffineboy's.

The combination of larger effect graphic and the ability to use the enter key would be bloomin' marvellous! :nana:

It would also be great if you could include the power meter in the crafting window to.

Much like allot of people I do other things while grinding bags and such and this would be a great help!

Anyway keep up the good work!

Walter.

Anyone know how to change the default setting of the Inventory to the Paperdoll Inventory? When I logon it's always on the Slimlined one, and I can't figure it out, and the only place to see my Weight Limits is in the Paperdoll Inventory, plus I just like that one better. :-)

start button
 

Just wondering if it's possible to show the start button open normally as in pic 2 ( of my screen cap ), when in normal use and allow the expand to open the rest of the way when needed... it's a pain havnig to expand every time you want to use the manastone etc ...
i rarely use the harvest / notes info and performance panel parts; when i do i can move the window to center screen to use and then return to normal use position at the bottom of screen ..
don't know how difficult it would be for you to make that change, but if it's doable, that would be grand !
thanks

arena icons
 

this is by far the best UI i've seen so far for EQ2. my only problem is with arena fighting. the objects that you obtain from the huge glowing icons overhead, well...they don't actually give me the icon of the new ability gained in my hotbars anywhere at all. this is frustrating as can be when my hubby is running thru picking them up and nuking my tail into tomorrow! :( any fix or coding or something i need to do to right this so i can return the favor to his smart alec butt? :D

Just a heads up in regards to LU 14. Theres a few issues with the OCD ui, the biggest one is with the Merchant window. When you open up the window it lists 3 tabs (buy, sell, and repair) and you cant select between the 3. So all you can do is buy. The other one i noticed is with the Bell window, it doesnt effect game play, but doesnt match the rest of the UI theme. It has a wooden background.

Those have been the only 2 things that I have found so far. Everything else looks good :)

Thanks,
Denniss

stupid question
 

is there a way to temp dissable just certain windows and go to the soe default? i love this ui, but need to hit a mender badly!
