You can only have 1 folder

where your everquest2.exe is located there should be a file called eq2.ini

inside that file you should find this (if not open notepad, copy paste, and save as eq2.ini)

Code:
cl_ui_skinname PUTFOLDERNAMEHERE 
cl_ui_subdir UI/

# Below you find some additional options that cannot be set via the ingame menu. 
# Just add or remove a "#" in front of the setting which you want to activate/deactivate

# Enable Anti-Aliasing support (enable here, then set via your graphics card driver)
r_aa_blit 1

# Allow the possibility to have chat channels in more than one tab/window
#chat_allowduplicatechannels 1

#To force EQ2 to listen to your custom cl_screenwidth and cl_screenheight parameters
#cl_validate_resolution false

#EQ2 automatically reduces texture quality if your system's memory is used up, resulting in washed out icons and character graphics, for example. With this command you can disable that behaviour. Would be better to just get more memory though, it's cheap these days.
disable_auto_low_mem_mode 1
This will tell the game which UI folder to load, once you have done that you should be able to see them in game, there are however certain UI pieces that require another file which you can copy from the default folder, and that is called eq2ui_custom.xml inside that you will see lines of custom ui bits This is an example of that

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Page IgnoreTab="false" ismodule="true" Name="Custom" PackSize="1,1" PackSizeProp="0002/0003,0002/0003" ScrollExtent="1024,768" Size="1024,768" Visible="false">

<include>_ProfitUI_custom.xml</include>
<include>eq2ui_custom_dragowulfui_spelltimer.xml</include>

</Page>
<Namespace Name="ProfitUI_Styles">

<include>_ProfitUI_Styles.xml</include>

</Namespace>
You need to type a line in above the </page> like so

<include>MYUIPEICE.xml</include>

Make sure it says .xml after it and make sure that it is named EXACALLY as the .xml you are trying to add.

Note: THIS IS ONLY FOR PARTS OF THE UI THAT ARE NOT APART OF THE DEFAULT UI, such as the auto attack bar?

Hope that helps!
