BG Countdown timer
 

It seems that the battlegrounds beginning count down timer goes away after the first time I enter. I did a complete re-download of eq2 then a fresh install of profit ui. When I go into BG for the first time, the timer is there. I leave, come back and it's gone never to come back again. Help!

This was a default UI bug where if you move the timer from the default location, it'll disappear.

It would normally show after a round starts, but I was pretty sure they fixed this bug. That, or it's being fixed next patch. I forget :)

you could try creating a macro: /show_window ArenaChampions.BGScore
That should bring up the window if it goes away, as a temporary fix.

the score does pop up when the round begins but the timer is never to be seen so my temporary buffs aren't on time... I'll try that macro you suggested and reply :)

Fantastic... why could I not find this anywhere else? And why did SOE tell me to reinstall? Thanks a million! (btw I did reinstall and it didn't fix it)

Customer support doesn't usually know much about UI bugs.

Hell.... most of the devs don't seem to know them either ;) And if they do, they're behind most of the other updates for the past... long while!
