I downlaoded the addon and followed instructions for installing addon posted on this site and made eq2.ini file as well.

Made a folder named Scottsui in my UI folder , extracted the addon into the scottsui folder. Then went to eq2 directory and made eq2.ini file and typed the following into it.

cl_ui_skinname scottsui
cl_ui_subdir UI/

Started eq2 logged warden on and saw no change to self target window. Logged out and restarted Eq2 and still nothing. I've even flipped the 2 lines around as some suggested still notta.

cl_ui_subdir UI/
cl_ui_skinname scottsui


Now in the addon description i saw this....


There are several batch files included in the download. Put them in the same custom ui folder as the xml files. They (the batch files) copy the appropriate xml file to the proper name that eq2 will utilize. EQ2_Default.bat removes any group or player ui so that you revert to the eq2 default ui's. EQ2 won't pick up the changed ui's until you either restart from desktop or use the /loadui command. Be warned that using /loadui can mess up hotbars and secondary chat windows. To make your life easier you can right click any of the bat files and create shortcut then place the shortcuts somewhere easy to find and use (like your desktop)

If you have a vista box (default for vista users tends to be read/execute), you will have to make sure that the user has modify/write permissions on the folder where the UI files are stored so that the batch file can create the appropriate files when you run it.



...... but to be entirely honest ( and its prob jsut casue im not very technical) im just not sure what that all means about batch files and and putting them in the same custom ui folder as teh xml fiels etc etc.

If anyone could shed some light on this would highly appreciate it.

BTW my OS is Windows Vista but i had no problem creating the eq2.ini file as mentioned in install instructions for this site.
