the problem is from the fact that eq2.ini doesnt have a custom folder set for it and at the time i wrote the updater i was in a hurry and never added a check to make sure that the file had a custom directory in it. that is why its writing to the C: drive. either add the lines needed for a custom ui or delete the file, run the updater and then add the line you wanted in the file.

On install had 'request confirm EQ2 directory box', which listed the correct location for EQ2 game files (C:\Program Files\Sony\EverQuest II), so I accepted it.

Now eq2ui_mainhud_map.xml, eq2map folder, and images folder, have been created in C:\
There is no sub folder in UI (except Default and fonts).

It doesn't look like eq2.ini has been updated either as it only contains: r_aa_blit 1

A really clear list of which files/folders your installing and where they should be would be real handy. Also exactly what the replacement eq2.ini should finally contain would be good. At the moment I don't know what files should be where, or if I'm missing any.
I know it's a pain, but this stuff should be included with a general release beta.

On the bright side this is no way as big a hastle as installing the 50+ mods i run under Morrowind!
