Being completely unfamiliar with EQ2 mods/installation I found your installation instructions incomplete, vague, and assuming.
This is only the second mod I'm attempting to use with eq2, the first was eq2maps which had an automated installer.
I'm technically inclined and have no issues with extracting files, manually modifying settings in .xml/.ini files, etc. However, there appears to be an assumption level that the user is familiar with how eq2 mods are installed and work.
Quote:
Installation:
* Please check the .zip comment or the included readme file for information on installation. NOTE: Unfortunately the following paragraph of the installation information is only in the .zip comment, not in the readme, which is why I repost it here:
If you are already using another UI mod (this comprises EQ2MAP):
IMPORTANT: Do not overwrite your existing eq2ui.xml with the included file.
Instead, edit the existing eq2ui.xml in your custom UI folder with notepad or another editor to add this line:
<include>_ProfitUI_Styles.xml</include>
* The window should be compatible with any other UI set/UI elements out there, the window style will automatically adapt (the expand/shrink button might not be perfectly placed).
* Installing this window will not overwrite any searches that you saved in the DefaultUI (or another mod).

-This zip comment directs the user to your website
-Where exactly are we extracting the file?
-How is the eq2ui.xml file going to get overwritten if there's no stored path in the archive. The only other eq2ui.xml file in my eq2 folder is \eq2\ui\default.
-If we modify the eq2ui.xml file in \eq2\ui\default do we then remove the one that is included with your .zip?
-I found different instructions on the eq2interface site which has the user modifying the eq2.ini file in \eq2\, is that not needed for your mod?
Note: I'm only trying to install the market window. I perused the instructions for the full mod and found the same quality of direction.
