Default

sounds like you have multiple problems - so it would be wise to attack them one at a time - first, lets try to get the default UI working like it should - forget custom pieces for now till you get that settled. I'll cover everything I can think of here - if you've done any of this before, it will probably sound familiar:

1.delete all custom pieces from every folder so all you have left is the default folder - if you have the map updater or if your UI set comes with an installer - get rid of it or disable it for now.

2. make sure your EQ2.ini file looks something like this (the order of the 2 lines may be swtiched in yours but that shouldn't matter):

cl_ui_skinname Default
cl_ui_subdir UI/

if it says anything other than "default" on the first line, fix it - dont try to add anything else till this works - not even Maps...

3. then run the patcher - when you get to the "PLAY" screen, hit the "preferences" button and select "Full File Scan" at the bottom, then save and re-run the patcher so it will repair any corrupt or missing files.

once the default works - then go ahead with making a custom folder and adding in your mods. make sure you follow the install instructions for your mod exactly, including the setup for any installers that may come with it. - personally I'd start with the EQMaps mod first and make sure that loads up fine - then move on, but do whatever the maker of your set recommends.

hope this was helpful in fixing your troubles - good luck
