This UI is updated frequently if you are not authorized to view this page it just means there is an update pending. So when it is approved you will be getting version 1.12.3 instead of 1.12.2

where
 
where do I download eXtremeUI at?
I went to the completed sets and it said I do not have access and I tried to use the search feature.

Answer is in the post below yours.

The reason you don’t see it at the moment is because an admin has to approve the update. Every update has to be approved by an admin to insure there isn’t a virus or something of that nature included in the files.



You all should add eXtremeUI to your favorites on this website not on your browser. If you add this you to it, it will notify you when you come to the site that the UI has been updated and if the update is still pending. It will also help move eXtreme up the list on the most favorites list =).

Was thinking about this and since it hasnt been done before I'm sure it would be in high demand. But what about adding a buy 20 or buy all button to the broker window? If it's even doable I'd be willing to put the time in to figure it out if enough people wanted this feature. Will probably have to talk with the sony dev's to get them to change some stuff to allow for this but I dont see it harming game with exploits or anything.

Not possible atm, that would have to be coded into the game before such a nifty button was added. Unless you can figure out a way to make it auto select and press buy after pressing the buy all button.

reference in eq2.ini is to extreme_test people gonna start spamming about not working so figured id post this. After installing everything open up the eq2.ini file you coppied to the main everquest directory in notepad and change the part that says eXtreme_test to eXtreme or just use this one that I already changed for you.

Skife 07-28-2005 01:10 PM

hehe heidrickla was thinking what i was thinking
 
heidrickla is correct. i noticed as well, a simple easy fix. i just want to add my thanks to you for creating a wonderful ui. i was curious if you and zonx are working together on it?

thanks again for the very great ui

btw the new guild window for some reason doesn't show any text under the roster tab - althrough the other tabs show fine

heidrickla 07-28-2005 02:20 PM

Roster tab displaying fine here. I've seen this before though. I usually just log out and back in and it fixes its self.

jonyb 07-28-2005 02:46 PM

Editted... My bad. Was looking at the buffs up top, not down the bottom.

Verify you have latest version 1.12.3 it was added in the patch today.

jonyb 07-28-2005 02:58 PM

Hrm.. when I'm at the loom, showing the list of recipes, the button at the bottom is barely a sliver, as most of it is off the window. I can't seem to resize the window, either.

I don't remember fiddling with the TS window this time but I will take a look at it when I get home.

So how is the new exp window? You all like it or no go back to the old style?

Very cool xp window. One catch. The 3 percentages across the bottom of it. The green one on the left shows adventure xp to next level when looking at both adventure class and tradeskill class. Should it be showing tradeskill xp when the bar is showing tradeskills?

Oh, and piping in with thanks for your hard work putting this all together. This is a great interface to use!

bakes 07-28-2005 03:56 PM

Is there a file for the quickbar info that holds the raid info for zones? Would be great if we could modify it w/out own guild strats and things =).. Is the only way to modify it thru the UI builder?

well you can add data to it but its kind of complex. You have to add a new page and in that page you add your info, nameing that page the same as the zone wiith out any spaces. Then you have to add some crude if statements in the onshow event of the main page. Then you have to move over to the hud pages and edit some stiff in the zoneing page.

As soon as I get the control panel done you will be able to do this easy, but in between working, raiding, updating the ui/bug fixes; its hard to sqeese in time to lean the flow of the code to read and right xml.. The good news its just about done:) /phew

Yes /sigh I notes that the TS exp read out was reflecting Adv exp after I dont updated it. The progress bar is correct though, update tonight or early tomorrw to fixe the eq2ui.ini anyway.

Kistin 07-28-2005 07:11 PM

I have seemed to lost my raid window, I have checked all the boxes when raid is in green, done it both ways, every possiblity i can yhink of, no good. Any clue?
And alt -r does not fix the problem. did i goof and move it off screen? if so how do i get it back? kinda hard to lead a raid with no window
thanks Kistin

Falaris 07-28-2005 07:46 PM

Auto bank spot no workie..
 
This UI is great.. and the work must be like a second job!

but anyway to get the bank spot that says (Drop here for auto bank) to actually allow a drop? It has not worked for me since I switched to this one. I could always put the ones from Laff's back.. but it would not match my colors now :(

Thanks again for all the hard work.. you guys make this game MUCH more enjoyable!

maglocked 07-28-2005 11:08 PM

Will there ever be....
 
First off, this is an awesome UI and i would like to say that i use it exclusively.BUT i cant. My eyesight is VERY bad, and i cant SEE ANYTHING lol

so my question is this, will there eventually be a stripped version that works in 1024x768? I know its a lot of work keeping just the popular 1280x1024 version up to date, but would love to use it if i could set the screen size to one i can see

above all, keep up the good work , i am so impressed by this ui i struggle to see and use it when my headaches dont interfere (vison problem headaches)

thanks

Maglocked once I get all the bugs worked out I do plan on adding in an option for the lower res crowd. Its verry close now just hange in there.

Landiin 07-29-2005 12:49 AM

UPdate 1.12.4 *sigh*
 
Update 1.12.4
===============

  • Fixed the eq2ui.ini file to point to the correct directory.
  • Fixed the issue with the auto-bank. ( I think )
  • Fixed the trade skill exp read out to reflect trade skill exp and not adventure exp now.
  • Varies tweak to random windows in the inventory module.

omegaslover 07-29-2005 11:09 AM

About the crashing problem. It may not be your UI. After the raid was "supposed" to go on with my guild on Tuesday, but couldn't becasuse I kept crashing. I got to talking to a guildie of mine. He asked me to check what my "paging file size" was. Mine personally was 606mb. Which me, knowing nothing about computers, asked.. is that bad? My guildie said it was pathetic lol. He explained to me how to change it. And I advise all of you to check yours as well. Since I changed mine, I havent crashed once. Here's directions if you don't know how to get there.... >>start >>control panal >>system >>advanced >>settings (under performance header) >>advanced >>change >>custom >>change initial size to 1300 >>change Maximum size to 2000 >>set >>ok.
And your now done. Hopefully this works as well for you guys as it did for me.

Laffs 07-29-2005 11:23 AM

Good advice!

As a guide your page file should be roughly 2.5 times bigger than the memory you have installed in your system for Eg:

1024 ram = page file size of 2560

Personaly I have 1024ram but use a page file size of 4000 as windoze is greedy

Vispack update.
 
1 Attachment(s)
I've updated and uploaded the Vispack. The majority of game fonts are now Arial, I left some of them Zapf for two reasons; font sizes, and Landiin's coding making it difficult to change some fonts, and I'm too lazy to figure out how :)

I changed up the pet window a little, still has no name, but made the buttons smaller, and health/power bars bigger. The implied target window matches the target window, and adjusted the font size to make the names fit better. Modified the color in the casting bar as well.

mackgee 07-29-2005 12:32 PM

Landiin,

Two bugs I found in the latest update.

1. Experience % mashed again. The fix I found was move the location of the "New Text" in the "ToBubble" pages to -4,0

2. When you set the hotkey to Frame only (to get rid of the labels) it works fine, BUT after you remove the labels open up your Game Options. All is good. Once you close your Game Options the labels return. I have no idea what’s causing this.. Maybe it's just me???

Peace out..

I like that yellow back on the castbar and that and the text don't clash:)

Im can't deside what I like best zpaf or arial... zapf has more of a 3d look when its out-lined. Guess im gonna just have to set the side bad side.

I think I like your pet and implied better, I will prob go ahead and make them the default ones if you don't mind.

I had already had most of it done. The skills window was what needed the work really.

Feel free, but take care because I deleted your assist buttons.. you'll have to copy & fix them from the V1 pages, because I didn't delete them from the V1's. When I changed the implied target window the buttons didn't work right, so I deleted them.. I never reverse assist anyhow..

Im having an issue with this UI and Im not sure whats going on. When I click on the chat screen and go to chat options...in order to seperate my chat out into tabbed areas (I can make the tabs no problem) the game locks up on me and I have to reboot my computer....cant ctl alt del out or anything.


Any suggestions or ideas on whats wrong?
