Anyone else notice an awful lot of blank space to the right of the quest journal? Seems like I have bout a half inch that is just...blank, past the scroll bar. Any way to thin it a bit?

GJ on the update, we appreciate all your hard work, and I really really appreciate the market window update :nana:

Was wondering if anyone out there could mod the Startbutton Command Center for Profit, thin it out some, or maybe just add the vid controls to the Profit button? While I love my command center, things like the coin window and the unequip are kinda meaningless now, what with Profit showing the coin and the unequip being kaput.

Problem with XP figures

Hi

I have this problem with the XP figures..

Nitrius 04-23-2006 08:52 AM

One thing i've noticed, the target window, where it show the name health and mana or what i should call it, the name is inbetween those to bars and it looks like the health and mana bar is overlapping the name so its really hard to see his name sometimes.. can try to take a screen if this was hard to understand :P



Edit: Forget this question, just changed the "con" thingy, and now its fine =)
Great UI!

Just curious if/how one could use just the small self/target/implied bars that sit above the hotbar's. I figured out it was the self window and tried to just use that file in another UI (fetish) but it's missing the graphics...what other files do I need or do I need to add include's to one of the fetish files?

go into option->User Interface and uncheck "smooth fonts" if you want to use small fonts. Alternatively uncheck "small fonts".

hmm, you'll need to copy _Profit_Styles.xml, include this in eq2ui.ini, and also copy FontArial14T.xml and /images/profit.tga. I think those are all files used for that bar.

I have to admit I never noticed :eek: Thanks for mentioning it, I'll take care of it.

Great UI!

Is this the same issue that Droiyan7 posted a screenshot about in post #311 above you? I have this fixed, I'll just need to upload the fix, lazy me. ;)

And no, you don't need to download the XML's from main thread as well, it's all in the zip (taking down the XML's now).

Missing maintained effects
 
I've noticed what might be a problem with the maintained effects window.

When my character dies & I revive, I recast my maintained spells, but they will not show up in the maintained effects window. If I exit the game & come back in, the icons are once again in the maintained effects window.

Just thought I'd pass it along.

Thanks for the great work. Keep it up. :)

gm9 04-23-2006 05:58 PM

try using your mouse wheel in the maintained window - you might have scrolled the top of it out of view

Nitrius 04-23-2006 06:00 PM

Great =) really love this UI, the functions and the look, so once more keep the great work up.

But i still wonder where Spiricore are...

Profit UI 2.2.2.
 
I want you to know that Profit UI is the best UI I have seen ever..8-) The only thing that has been bothering me is that The guild window under the recruit tab I am not able to set any Details and also when using a toon not Guilded the search for a guild window that pops up when you hit "U" Key does not show up at all. One more thing the chat window In order for me to chat I always need to set the "Always chat here" and for some reason sometimes I am not able to chat at all it kind of freezes and when I hit enter to submit the text I have just written it does not go thru and I have to restart EQ2 to be able to chat again. It was working fine until update #22. :confused:

Droiyan7 04-24-2006 12:46 AM

I think I have a better idea

I never experiance any trouble with 'Smooth Font' or 'Small Font' option, since I used this modify.


By the way, v2.3 package include 'eq2ui_textstyles_new.xml', but instruction of this file seems missed :)

Updata to v2.3, it will resolve your issue.(if still problem, find 'eq2ui_mainhud_guild.xml' in profitUI folder and del it, be sure 'eq2ui_mainhud_guild.xml' exist in only 'Default' UI folder.)

If you cannot fine v2.3, visit here

Great info, I'll do that!

yeah, that sneaky file shouldn't have been in the release. :rolleyes:


And ToxicMan: I wonder as well where Spiricore is hiding. I hope he's well.

Kaz 04-24-2006 03:09 AM

map?
 
Hi all, using this UI, but have one problem. Had EQ map too. If I insert coordinates, I don't see cross or dot on map. Only message in chat window, you destination etc... Some idea where is problem? Thanks

Offline trading with ProfitUI
 
Hi,

Thanks for your reply. I have upgraded to the latest version of ProfitUI as I was on an older version. I've set a number of items to be sold offline and Im just getting some friends to check to see if the items are listed.

I must admit I couldnt understand how the UI would effect this, but hey I was taking advise from SOE Support!

thx.

D.

The problem is actually the EQ2Map auto-updater which doesn't update all of its files. For a fix please upgrade to ProfitUI v2.3 which you can find in my post #10 on this thread. It's also available as a patch from the download page.

We really need Spiricore to come back to update those first posts. I'd like to avoid creating yet another new thread.

castion 04-24-2006 03:14 PM

Great add on! The only question I have is where is the start button?

I do not see it anywhere once I installed the UI.

Any ideas?

Drunder40 04-25-2006 12:58 PM

Look down at the botton left corner of the screen. You may see just a tad bit of the far right edge of it. I noticed this when I installed the UI. Took me a bit but I found it.

That's why you should just use one of the included preset .ini files the first time you install the UI so you have all the windows in the default positions as shown on the screenshots.

dukee 04-25-2006 06:15 PM

I have problems with my Recruting Guild window :( it wont be open...
Have you also the problem? or have i make a wrong installation..

hylozoist 04-25-2006 10:02 PM

I have no clue if it's me, but when I try to move people in a raid with the raid window included in the mod, my game crashes. It doesn't crash when I tried another individual ui mod.

It rarely crashed with the old profit mod I had installed. It didn't look like it changed, so this is very curious why it would start crashing now.

gm9 04-26-2006 01:43 AM

dukee, did you upgrade to the latest version (download link in my signature)?

hylozoist, did this happen once or did you try it several times? The window is still the same from v1.8d, but I'll check whether I made any accidental changes.

Drunder40 04-26-2006 06:37 AM

Run speed % not showing up
 
Not a big deal but when I bring up the Persona window the run speed is always 0% whether I am on my 40% carpet or have my Jboots on it still indicates 0%.

gm9 04-26-2006 07:11 AM

ProfitUI uses the default persona window. If there's a bug with the run speed display it's on SOE's end.

Drunder40 04-26-2006 07:18 AM

Okies.. thanks..

As a side note, this is by far the least buggy UI I have used.

Now that I have it installed correctly, I have no problems what so ever.. This UI simply put is the best bar none..

I really really appreciate all the hard work and effort going into keeping it current.

Thanks!!

mysteroe 04-26-2006 09:10 AM

Hi

I installed the latest Profit ui Reborn, I have found for some reason I do not have any boarders on any type of pop up or any of the small Icons in the corners. Did I miss some thing or not get a file some how?

Thanks

Pulsar 04-26-2006 10:10 AM

Lost
 
i just downloaded the ProfitUI 2.3, installed it and started Eq2.
but it looked all like before. i deleted my old ui_settingsfile and at startup i was aksed which one to use and i selected the 1280*1024 one (my actual rez is 1600*1200) but despite some differently played windows all loked the same. no cool lloking health bars, no fonts, half of the stuff seemed missing anyway (like the bar which show you all your stats.
the chat window had only 2 tabs (main and combat) instead of 5 or so what the one on the screenshot has.

Do i need to have the 1.8 version installed first? what am i doing wrong?

Can someone please tell a noob what to do to make it look right?

red1086 04-26-2006 11:30 AM

Okay, I just DL'ed and installed, but this part of your directions have me confused:

3. Rename your {server}.{toon}_eq2_uisettings.ini in your EQ2 directory to and add .bak to the end of it.

I don't want to mess anything up. Do I just put .bak at the end of it?

hiroprotagonist 04-26-2006 12:18 PM

aye thats what ya do..

everfrost_toon_eq2_uisettings.ini changed to
everfrost_toon_eq2_uisettings.bak

is what he suggests although i have never had any trouble just doing

_everfrost_toon_eq2_uisettings.ini

gm9 04-26-2006 01:08 PM

Drunder40, thanks! :D

mysteroe, if I understand you correctly, window frames for pop-up windows don't show for you and the graphics on the top and bottom bars are not visible? Sure sounds like something went wrong during the installation. Make sure you extract the zip to your main Everquest 2 directory.

Pulsar, make sure you extract the zip to your main Everquest 2 directory (not the UI directory). If you want the chat window setup, use the respective default UI settings I provided, called "...-c&b.ini" or something. See my response to red1086 below on how to install it.

red1086, that was just Spiricore's way to say to make a backup. You can rename it like hiroprotagonist does or also just delete the file if you don't need a backup. You can even leave the file alone and once in game type /load_uisettings. This will let you select the appropriate ProfitUI default settings without having to delete files, and you will keep your chat channel numbering. Deleting/renaming the file first, however, is the "cleanest" method.

mysteroe 04-26-2006 04:55 PM

hi again

I reinstalled as you said an got the same thing. Yes no boarders or window framing and no controll icons on the windows.

Any thing else to try?

Thanks

speedycerv 04-26-2006 06:54 PM

crashing...
 
hey not sure if anyone else posted on this.. but when i did a certain search on the broker it crashed the game and i had to close it

gm9 04-27-2006 02:35 AM

mysteroe, could you post a screenshot please?

speedycerv, you are the first to post about it, but I had already experienced this myself. Did you use the recent searches dropdown? I *think* it might be related to that, but I didn't yet have the time to test or fix it.

Drunder40 04-27-2006 05:40 AM

I just encountered a new bug last night. When I set my main chat window to group chat I can just hit enter to talk in group like one would expect. But once I type in like /ooc or /gu, the chat window defaut chat reverts to that so with it set to group chat, and I then type in GC (/GU), every time I hit enter from there on it is in GC now not Group.. Same for /OOC. I set the chat window to group and when I hit /ooc and type something, the chat window defaults to /ooc.

Anyone else seeing this? is there maybe a new setting I need to set? I have run Profit UI from v1.8d to this 2.2 and never had this problem before. Ii am running v2.3 now.

I would like the default chat to stay at what I set it to and not change to any other chat I may send..

I believe the did an update yesterday morning and I never had this problem prior to that so maybe something changed.. not sure..

Any help would be greatly appreciated..

Thanks

scottden2000 04-27-2006 06:34 AM

Drunder... this is the default behaviour of the client now... i have been dealing with this since (?i think?) lu20 or 21... it was an update from sony that started this behaviour.... i think that there should be an option in the options window somewhere to change this.. but i have not bothered to take the time to look for it.

Drunder40 04-27-2006 06:55 AM

Hmm well then why did this just start last night? I would think I would have noticed this right when it was first intorduced..

Anyway thanks for the reply.. I guess ill look for that option... I can't for the life of me figure out why something like that would even be needed but I guess they know what they are doing..

gm9 04-27-2006 07:21 AM

lol, this option has been there for almost as long as I've been playing. Quoted from the LU15 update notes (where have you been? :D):

Quote:

- There is now an option to auto-switch chat types: Options -> User Interface -> Chat Window -> Auto-switch chat types. If checked, the default chat type will change whenever you use something other than the current default. For example, if the default chat type is set to /say and you type something using /gsay, the default chat type will then be changed to /gsay. Note: This option defaults to unchecked (off) for existing characters and checked (on) for new characters.

Drunder40 04-27-2006 07:28 AM

ahh ok.. l recently re-formatted my Hard drive and re-loaded EQ2 so that must be a default setting.. I honestly missed that little tid bit in the notes.. Thanks a bunch for the info..

I usually pay close attention to the notes but yea I definately missed that ..

Appreciate it..
