quick buttons not working
 

I play a defiler . sence GU52 i cant get any quick button to work none of my cures or any group or raid quick buttons are working. is there something i can do to fix the problem? I have talked with other defilers and they are not having this issue. I have tried to update profit ui with the auto updater but it tells me there is no new files. any info would help i'm having to stay out of raids till i get it fixed dont want to miss out on the loots.

Just tried that didnt work anything else i can try

Just tried that didnt work. I un installed all my UI and profit ui and re installed em.
it just say This spell or ability is no longer available when i try to use the cure quick buttons. all that happens with raid/group buttons is i hear the tone and nothing happens

try clear your updater's ignored list

i have the same issue ..

nothing in ignore list
and tried reinstalling.

I'm a warden, same problem. I uninstalled, reinstalled, checked ignored files, nothing. Any ideas?

actually, i should clarify. My heal quickbuttons work fine. Just my cure buttons do not work.

OK i asked my defiler friends and they say there's no problem with that. I also created a Warden character for testing the cure button function and it works fine either.

I will upload a standalone version in this few hours and you guys can try it see how it works.

Here is the standalone version

http://www.eq2interface.com/downloads/info4925

All of my hotbuttons work if I use only the DL version, but the moment I alter the text to add 'Jesters Cap on You' for example, my UI won't even load.

Anyone else got that problem?

I have even DL'd the recent file and manually added the new text and it fails every time.

Help!

Try this

This is an example of what's in my file:

<Data Name="Button4" Macro="SpellForMyLevel='Vivication'
useabilityonplayer Parent.Target SpellForMyLevel
tell Parent.Target Defiler Rez - Take at own risk..." Tooltip="(50) Vivication"/>

Also tried:

<Data Name="Button4" Macro="SpellForMyLevel='Vivication'
useabilityonplayer Parent.Target SpellForMyLevel
tell Parent.Target Defiler Rez - Take at own risk...
" Tooltip="(50) Vivication"/>

But when I load EQ2, then for some reason the UI doesn't even activate as such - I get to use the Default UI. The moment I replace this with a fresh DL I can use Profit again, but when modifying it with the above text it goes back to only loading the Default UI. I'm not sure what's going on...

Use a different editor (check my FAQ). :)

Because the spell names changed, some of the completely, it broke parts of the UI.

I was able to fix by going into ProfitUI_QuickRaidButtons file and updating the names of the spells for my class (the file is sorted by classes)... all my quick buttons are now labeled correctly and function correctly.

Hi,

I am also having issues with quick cure button. My issue seems to be a bit different tho.

The button can work fine for hours, then all of a sudden it stops working, this can happen after i revive for example. Then i get the message "This spell or ability is no longer available" when trying normal or curse cure - I can still use the cures from hotbar tho.

If i then restart my client it works fine again for a while. Patched with latest from updater, no ignored files.

Anyone else with same issue?

I thought I fixed my problem, took everything off ignore list, patched it again, started game, cures worked. Then logged off for a couple hours, come back on, no cures again. Just says "This spell or ability is not available." why would it work sometimes, not others? Thanks for any help.

Except the spell CURE did not change names.....

I'm having the same problem. Updated with Catalyst after GU52. It worked the first time it loaded, but the group window has been broken ever since. The click cures tell me "This Spell or Ability is no longer available" and not only do the hot buttons not work, the tooltip reads like this: "Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Custom.ProfitUI_QuickRaidButtons.Parent.Parent.Pare nt.ProfitUI_SubclassDetector.Subclass.Button1.Tooltip"

Perhaps the QuickRaidButtons, SubclassDetector, and/or CuresCode files aren't being loaded correctly, or something is interfering with their functioning?

I've identified what was causing problems with my group window. Apparently the ProfitUI eq2ui_mailhud_experience.xml file (XP Bar) is required for the group window to function correctly. It will not work with either a custom XP bar nor the default one.

Now to figure out exactly what code is required from the Profit XP bar to make the group window work so I don't have to use that bloated P.O.S. in my UI...

Watch the language man, not doing UI's atm gives me more time on the ban stick. :p

Hehe. Well it's a perfectly fine piece within the context of the full Profit UI, which I don't use. :)

Since I customize my entire UI, I'd prefer to use an actual XP bar, not a health/power/gold/xp/regen/run speed/status/pack weight bar.

Its one thing for you to maybe say its bloated but another thing entirely to come in here and call it a P.O.S. especially since these palyer made mods are made available to you through the blood, sweat and hardwork of people who have the passion and the drive to make these mods for us. On top of that you are able to download and use these mods/ addons for free. So next time before you say something that might seem overly critical think twice about the amount of time that people put into these programs.

Fair enough. I was irritated after 4-5 hours of incremental modifications to my UI, and digging through XML code, only to find out I was stuck with using a UI element I didn't want to (in order for the UI element I did want, and had been using for months, to work.) It was a flippant comment, and hopefully gm9 didn't take it to heart.

Profit UI is a very good piece of work, and I certainly don't think it's a P.O.S. I do still want to replace the XP bar, though. ;)

Cheers, that was my point exactly. :)

ok ive tried to make head and tail of the quickraid buttons editing and am totaly confused i used to use the raidbutton updater but now its out of date due to the GU52 i need to change them by editing manually,so im asking for some help have read the FAQ and still no joy all i want is this :-
Button 5 to use (AA) Ritual Of Alacrity and send the person a tell saying " Has increased Casting,Reuse,Recovery Speed By 33% "
thats it lol
So if someone can either pm me or just quote this with what it should say id be in there debt forever.:p

Thanks

Thanks for the info i tried it all and it didnt work. So i uninstalled iT. I downloaded Fetish ui and it works great.

For the Cure-Button not working: SOE decided, that it would be fun it /useability and its friends now use the localized spell names!

thus... you would somehow need to supply localized versions of the group+player+raidwindow or add one of these _Profit_whatever files, to allow the user to specify their Cure spell name or implement some kind of language switch.

anyways, for all cure and click2cast-buttons to work, you (the profit USER) would need to make these changes manually, i.e. for german clients,

whereever you find useabilityontarget X Cure
it now needs to read useabilityontarget X Heilkraft

same applies to the click2cast buttons
where you previously had: useabilityontarget X Ministration
you now need: useabilityontarget X Pflege VIII
this last change can be made in the _profit_quickraidbuttons.xml but the cure change has to be applied to all 3 above mentioned window files

For the german Client you only need to edit the file "_ProfitUI_Cures.txt"

Chnage all
Cure to Heilkraft
Cure Curse to Fluch heilen
Cure Arcane to Arkane Heilkraft

works like a charm. I put the changed File as attachement. Don't forget to set it on ignore in the updater.


There is only a problem with the "_ProfitUI_QuickRaidButtons.txt".
I changed it for my Fury:
Works perfect, Button 1 to 3 automaticly takes the highest available spell.
Neuwachsen (Regrowth) casts Neuwachsen VII (Regrowth VII), no need to put the number at the end.
Problem with spell 4 and 5 are the Umlaute (ü,ä). Spells with Umlaute are not found, it's the old problem with this characters in UI-Files.

Any hints how to get it work? Encoding of the ü to &_#252; won't even load the UI anymore. And yes, in my try i don't put an underscore there, only had to do it on the forum to prevent that an ü was put there.:rolleyes:

Well, since totday's patch (GU52) the cure buttons for my warden do not work anymore. I did as suggested before and completely reinstalled the standalone version of profit ui. Is there anything else i can do or is it simply not working with the german language server Valor atm?

Yes, QRB currently is not working on i18n servers but this is caused by SOE.

C2C hotfix for i18n server already pushed into Auto-updater.

Thanks for your advice but I'm not going to take it as a solution for QRB i18n server hotfix.

Here's the thing: Every spell in EQ2 have a number I'll call it "Spell Serial Number". If peoples want to cast a spell by using command line, except using "/useability SPELLNAME" command, peoples also can cast spells by using "/useability 1234567890" command. This Spell serial number is UNIVERSAL, it can be applied in any locale server and also it is a UNIQUE number.

For example,
Just like "/useability Cure", is equal to "/useability 2945678992", "/useability Cure" probably may not work in i18n servers since GU52 but "/useability 2945678992" will absolutely still works fine.

If you enabled game logging function, you can get this serial number by completing following instructions:

1, type "/say " in your chat window
2, open your knowledge window, a.k.a. spell window
3, drag the target spell to your chat window
4, press Enter
5, open your log file, you should see something like "\aABILITY 969542071 キュア・カース:キュア・カース\/a", 969542071 is the serial number of "Cure Curse", using "/useability 969542071" is equal to "/useability Cure Curse"
(6, then you may probably want to report this to me :p)


At last, sorry for my bad English. :o

Here are the IDs for you, you're method worked perfect :nana:

Zurück ins Schlachtgewühl II (Back into the fray II) = 598732465
Wilde Zähigkeit IV (Feral Tenacity IV) = 4240163028

Thanks for your help.

I'll start a Spell Serial Number Collect Thread ASAP, in the meantime, players who playing in i18n servers can use the method that I provided above to solve the problem temporarily.

well sorted it myself with help from my gf

Sorry for not reading the whole thread but there are a new things with this GU, that changed for the quickbuttons:

1. You only need to name the spellline and it will cast the latest version all by it self.
   So "useabbilityonplayer Parent.Target ministration" will cast "Ministration I" at level 5 and "Ministration VIII" at 75. So you do not need the levelcheck if you work with spellchain names.
2. You can't use Englisch names on international servers with useabbilityonplayer any more. You must use the localized name or the spell ID. (The number used if you link the spell.)

If you go by the name of the spellchain, you can remove the level check, but you need to include a localization for the spellnames.

If you go by the spell ID you still need the levelcheck but it will work for all servers.

I would prefer to go by spellchain name, as this will also mean a lot less work to do with the upcoming expansion, as you will not need to change the quickbuttons at all to use the new spells form 81 to 90.
If you use the same mechanism you use for the market window it also should not be such a great hassle to change the files beside needing help to get the localized spellchain names.

I would be happy to help you out with that.

Interesting. In that case you have two possibilities, either switch out filed based on language as I did for the market window as you suggest, or, add the spellname with translation tags (can be found in the files in the /locale folder) to a Text value and read the translated spellname from the LocalText return value to be used by the buttons.
