Persona Bar Persistent Display

[Crystallyne.net]

Hey, I was wondering if you could maybe add info in your FAQ here, or somewhere, on how to make changes so the persona bar is ALWAYS up? I know it's easy to open it up when you want, but I find it to be a pain to have to open it up every time I log in.

There used to be documentation with Fetish on how to do this, but I don't see it now. I quit the game for about 3 months and just came back, had uninstalled the game completely and had to reinstall the game. And I have the same problem as before, the persona bar always disappears when I first log in.

After some searching I found my old thread where the answer was posted:

Personabar Persistent Display:
Open the persona file _Fetish_mainhud_personabar.xml in Notepad and search for the following code:
PackLocation="left,top"
Replace with the following code:
OnHide="visible=true" PackLocation="left,top"
Save and Exit.

I'm sure there's probably others out there who have the same problem, and again I couldn't find documentation on this with the download or somewhere here on the forums. Just a thought.

Use this:

EQ2 UI Settings Spy will allow you to change the persistence settings for any window (as well as size, position, etc.) as well as delete unwanted chat channels that you "inherit" from importing the UI settings from some other character but which you don't qualify to enter and hence can't delete.

Jethal noted that the program might be having trouble with INI files after the GU47. Dunno if it is affecting everyone or not.

EQ2 SettingSpy haveing issue with INI files? hmm I'll have to investigate.. as long as SOE didn't change the binary structure every thing should be fine.

Oh yeah, can confirm that, it does not populate the modules and windows panel anymore, chat channels appear to be still fine. Haven't investigated further so far.

Sounds like they added voice channel data after the chat channel data then. That would through off the the start of the windows offsets and leave the chat channel offices intact.
