Quick UI switch workaround
 
Posted this elsewhere as a reply but thought it might be helpful as it's own post. If they ever fix /loadui this will be pointless.

If you want to switch UIs for different characters you could edit the eq2.ini file every time or you can set this up.


First make a copy of the eq2.ini file with some other title ex: BOBSUIeq2.ini
Make a copy of the eq2.ini file for each other UI you want to use ex: JILLSUIeq2.ini
Then use a text editor to make a batch file for each UI.
File BOBSUI.BAT would contain
REN C:\progra~1\sony\everqu~1\eq2.ini eq2ini.old
COPY C:\progra~1\sony\everqu~1\bobsuieq2.ini eq2.ini
save this to your desktop
File JILLSUI.BAT would contain
REN C:\progra~1\sony\everqu~1\eq2.ini eq2ini.old
COPY C:\progra~1\sony\everqu~1\jillsuieq2.ini eq2.ini
save this to your desktop

Now when you want to use BOBSUI for one character click on the Bat file.
Then run EQ2.
If you want to switch to JILLSUI for another character camp to desktop click on the bat file and run EQ2 .
It may be possible to add a line to run EQ2 within each batch file
something like C:\progra~1\sony\everqu~1\eq2.exe but i haven't tested it

Or, you could use Gers UI switcher!
