Some skills not showing up right
 
Since LU13 pallys have Piercing skill in the adventure book I bought a Piercing weapon went to El to get it up to the same point as slashing and crushing,But when I check my persona screen Slashing/Crushing and Piercing all have 0s behined them and on the skill screen it has 174/174 for Slashing but when I was playing last night I switched back to a slashing weapon and it ding to 183/183 all my other skills have 183 on the right side of the / mark but fighting skills like crushing/slashing/piercing have 174 but when I use and of the diff types of weapons it show like for piercing 128/183 at the top of my screen not sure if this is a Thor UI problem or what just thought id let you know.

Hi,
This UI is great and i love it, but i have one little problem with the custom shutdown. I don't know if i was made some mistake but, when i try to change the char i receive a message "Can't find server" and the game is shutdown.
I need to make some change to shutdown run well?

Thanks

peallen42 10-25-2005 05:07 PM

bah editing, cutting and pasting this didnt help either with the HTML thing. Deleting didnt work either, tried that several times.

I cant get my start button with the sliders to work either. Tried selecting under advanced several times as well. Seems to be bugged.

Also experiencing alot of lag with the UI installed, got a great connection, 6800gt nvidia. only happens with the UI. Its just real choppy. I tried taking several options out and it still lags. Any suggestions?

I did fix the text issue changed from 120dpi to 96dpi, that one at least solved

Select the "..." button next to this feature. It has about and a link to the author's page, which will give you some special instructions for configuring this issue.

ShadowMaster 10-25-2005 09:54 PM

The copied and pasted one a few msgs above looks pretty much like mine, sometimes, and doesn't work. But thanks Faelen for sending me his and it does work for me now. Gotta hold onto that file in case something happens and the program tries to regenerate it again.....

jamester 10-25-2005 10:38 PM

Mine is doing the same thing... with the logfile? Also, the date/time stamps on my default window placement files are 1/1/05, 1:00AM. Is this correct?

All of my window placements are messed up, even after Options/Advanced/Window Wizard. :(

Faelen 10-26-2005 01:02 AM

The persona window section regarding piercing, slashing, and crushing are in the resistances section and are indeed resistance data not skill data.
When you get higher lvl you get a selection to become resistant to piercing, slashing, or crushing and I thought it would be nice to display that for those who chose it.

The skill window data is locked and any strange data read issues would be from SOE as all my UI does is "catch" their data and display it to the user.
To sum it up: That looks like a bug report for the skill data.

This is one of those windows where the user must modify it in order for it to work.
Check the about screen for that selection for "how to" its the ... button in the features section.
Quick explaination: you need to open the xml and replace the character entry with your character name and the server entry with your characters server name.

Easy workaround

I got around this issue by deselecting the module once I had made the changes. That way it won't look for it again. I'll just leave it until I know there is an update for it or the shutdown function starts acting wonky.

Faetyl 10-27-2005 09:46 AM

Cool, that was the original fix for it but I believe Robert added a feature (under options) to not update newer files.

I made the changes and now it works very well.

No tabs on chat windows
 
Hello all,

I saw this question asked once in the thread here, but I never saw an answer. Everything is working great in the UI (thanks Faetyl !), but the chat windows are missing their tabs. I have tried about everything I can think of (including deleting and reinstalling ThorUI).

Any suggestions?

Thanks!
Dave

Faetyl 10-28-2005 12:00 AM

Unless you use my window placements file provided "optional" you must set these up for yourself by right clicking the chat area and choose "new chat tab".

Pet Window
 
I can not get the pet window to display.

I moved the windows all around and could not find where the window is being displayed

I hit Alt-p and nothing happens

HELP - I just started playing summoner I will have to code my own hot keys for the pet until I see a post about this

Thanks for a great job and that auto updater is coool.

:nana:

Windows mishmashed
 
1 Attachment(s)
I have completely uninstalled ThorUI, re-downloaded the Auto Updater, got the same corrupted HTML file upon first update, and my windows continue to look like the attachment, even after going through the Window Wizard.

Again, I don't know if it matters, but the date/time stamp on the ThorUI uisettings files are 1/1/2005 1:00 AM.

Any ideas what might be preventing me from getting these windows successfully arranged by default? I'm trying to use the regular 1280x1024 resolution. (If anybody would like to post a working uisettings file, that'd be awesome, too.)

I *LOVE* the UI, but I'm really lazy about re-arranging so many windows - there's nothing like having that done automagically!

Thanks in advance. =)

Faetyl 10-29-2005 02:17 AM

You're gonna kick yourself :p
You're playing in "full screen" aka no black border/widescreen view.
Therefore you need to use my "full screen" window placement file. :)

If you were to go in and move the black border out to widescreen again you will notice all windows are configured to "stick" to the frame.
This is SOE's programmers doing not mine, so don't kick me :rolleyes:

Faetyl 10-29-2005 02:19 AM

You could use my window placement file
or
You could try "not allowing windows off screen" within the in game options under user interface.

Sounds like the pet window is off screen somehow. (This usually happens from using the same window settings from another cutom UI)

john678 10-29-2005 08:57 AM

first thank you for nice UI :D
i am having problem see arrmor. i see rings and wrist but nothing else.

Faetyl 10-29-2005 09:56 AM

I've setup my inventory window to be as small as possible while still being functional.
You should notice a small round button on the top left corner of the inventory button. (Press it) :)
Also note, you may learn all the features of each window by clicking on "options" within the thorui then selecting the features tab. You will notice a small button with "..." at the end of each feature. Click it for a screenshot and full description.

Well that didnt work as it is already unchecked.

What is the window placement file?

Faetyl 10-29-2005 10:20 AM

They hold the information for all your windows and how you have them setup. (per character)
servername_charactername_eq2_uisettings.ini
For example:
UNREST_faetyl_eq2_uisettings.ini

I have them available under options/features and there is a window wizard available under options that Robert was so kind to setup for us.

I've attached the one I use with Faetyl. Note I play in "full screen" no widescreen letterbox.

Sorry to keep buggin u but i tried that and it is still not showing - also all my windows are still in thier same location I originally set them to

DarkScales 10-29-2005 12:56 PM

Change code
 
Is there a way to go into the code and change the location of the pet window to force it to be in the center of the screen so u can find it and fix it?
\
thanks

DarkScales 10-29-2005 02:44 PM

Fixed
 
I used your file u supplied and have the pet window up

I will see how I like the current placement of things and then maybe change the rest of my char to that window layout.

I only have one char that has a pet my summoner


Thanks :nana:

EQ 2 Uploads 9 h after Installing ThorUi
 
Hi,

i`m going to install Thorui first time. Afer instaling the Ui EQ 2 is going to Update over 9 h :eek: . Is this normal?

thx for answer

Yes and no.

It's pretty normal if you've just installed the game and on a slow (dial-up) connection and/or a slow computer.

But it's not normal if you've already got the game installed and up to date (from all the patches/updates and what not).

I remember one time when I had to wipe/reload my machine, I was looking at a 3+ hr wait for EQ2 to finish patching (and I'm on a T1 speed cable connection).

Ralla 10-29-2005 03:34 PM

I have a DSL 6000 speed conection to The Internet, and EQ 2 was up to date ( I was in the game befor installing Thorui). I wonder wat it is. The download speed is between 2500 and 5500 Kb p s.

If this happens you should probably stop the update and then wait 10-15 min before trying again. An update should take under 2-3 minutes on a DSL connections. Perhaps the server was having a problem.

Even considering a dial-up I'd estimate that a total update of all features from the Thor UI feature set should take a MAXIMUM of 15 minutes.

nomad980 10-29-2005 05:27 PM

I just got back today after a while of not playing and updated the UI. I noticed one small problem, the start button doesn't work. The start button seems to have something that is bugged in it, because when I try viewing the UI using the uibuilder ProxyActor and the IME tabs are not there anymore and are part of the MainHUD section. Going to see what is wrong so that I could help Faetyl at least once while i can heh.

Faetyl 10-30-2005 11:00 AM

Hey Nomad980 good to hear from you again.
I'm not seeing anything wrong with the startbutton on the server.
Perhaps try renaming yours and allow the updater to pull down a fresh copy?
Let me know what you find out and thanks for looking into it.

ThorUI AU and EQ2.ini?
 
I see that ThorUI now updates EQ2.ini, however everytime it does this, it overwrites the line that enables FSAA in EQ2, "r_aa_blit 1". Is there a fix or workaround for this?


Be seeing you...

Go into advaced options and check the option to "Not update files that are newer than on server". Once you edit the ini file it will not be updated again. This applies to all files in all manifests, just edit them and they automatically are recognized as no longer being part of any updates. Easy enough eh?

nomad980 10-31-2005 12:31 AM

Well its weird, the start button is exactly the same as the original one, except that now it uses the thorui widgets file. so i need to see what other files might be causing the problem...

lady1 10-31-2005 01:06 AM

hi, i reloaded thorui everything works but when i hit alt-o my option window opens but doesnt show,all the options like lighting shadows are there but when i open them there is no options to check or uncheck


thanks for any help
