Profit UI from Beta

Cutanea · #1 02-14-2010, 06:38 PM

FYI All,

When you first load up Profit, the following will not work right...chat, activequest window, and persona.

This fix was linked in the Beta for SF, and here is the link to the zip.

http://www.taintedeq2.org/ProfitBetaUpdate.zip

PLEASE NOTE: I did not make this update. It was done by another one of the beta testers. As far as I know, it is pretty current but if anything else is missing, sadly I won't be the one to update it

This is just a quick fix until someone else can come in and really tweak everything.

Special Thanks to Silat of Nagafen for doing the fix. And to Spritelady for hosting the link.

Pretty sure there are a lot of bugs in the initial update. Silat said he would try to fix those but wasn't gonna officially take this over. To the best of my knowledge Chrislau will be making some updates that will get pushed to the updater soon as SF releases.

What saddens me is to see how many people keep saying this project is dead when it hasn't been dead at all. There are lots of people who work on it and keep it functional on a regular basis. Then they come to the forums and see people saying its dead it won't work etc etc and get discouraged to even try and keep it up.

This could very well be why gm9 decided his time was done. Constant moaning about something not working and demands to fix it NOW not when the guy had the time to actually look at what was going on. His time was well spent on this project but I am sure he got very little compensation for the amount of time he did put into it.

Hope the above patch works for those who were not in beta even though the persona window will surely not function correctly as it has incorrect stats and calls to game data which no longer exist.

It does not have alot of bugs after the initial fix for beta. The bugs were with a change rothgar had inadvertantly made to the UI that caused mathematical functions to return in scientific notation. It messed up everything that was dynamicly spaced. He fixed it a month or so ago. If chrislau does not continue to update profit I will do it. I use it to play and cannot play the game anymore without it. Having said that....I am really hoping he does continue to keep it up to date as my tikme is limited and working on the UI takes away from play time

AFAIK the click to cures on the raid window do not function in the expansion but that is the only major issue I know of at this time if you use the zip that was posted. If the problem persists on live it will be fixed.

Profit is not dead and will not be as long as I am playing EQ2.

Well I got no reply from Chrislau yet.

If there is no activity going on tomorrow I'll upload the files myself. Since I did not go deep into UI programming yet, I won't be able to fix things. So better have them working :P

One of the more recent patches in beta has broken click-to-cure and quick-raid-buttons in the Raid window. They are still functional in the group window.

Papabard · #6 02-15-2010, 11:46 AM

Sorry Silat didn't mean to imply there was bugs with your work meant there are still bugs in the UI functions of the game. Not sure why the raid window doesn't function where as the group window does.

As for the fonts and the way they display for me I'll have to wait until it goes live to see if that changes it. I was gonna post screen shots but can only show what my live version looks like since beta doesn't allow screens to be taken.

Persona window still shows 10000 in resists area which of course is just cosmetic.

No, I did it because I liked doing it and for the people who did appreciate the tremendous amount of time developing, maintaining and supporting such a project costs and were grateful for getting all that for free. I tended to ignore the haters, the complainers and the snide remarks, if you take them seriously I do not think you can last long anywhere in life. That's also my advice to anybody else doing it.

I seem to be having with my XP % display. Achievement XP works as intended but adventure XP % never increases.

Is this an isolated issue to my install or are others seeing the same thing?

Might not be display...press L and move the slider from 100 to 0

That is the most likely cause.

Hit the nail on the head. Been so long since I played, this completely skipped my mind.

Thanks for the pointer in the right direction.

I've updated the startup splashscreens for the expansion so they were cleaner. I know it's a cosmetic (not so important) change, but I like things to look clean. Let me know if you want it, and I will send it to where it needs to be... once I know where...

Papabard · #14 02-18-2010, 03:58 AM

I would like it. can you PM me a link or email them to me [email protected]

I updated the broker window drop down files to include the T9 stuff.

Corrected some directing issues where if you search for T9 rares it goes to T9 rares instead of T8.

added The new adornment and transmuting books to the drop down searches and removed the enigma book search (as they no longer exist).

I added the slot amounts on backpacks and strongboxes that were missing (the ones that I knew, still missing a couple).

added the Sumac display cases to the drop down searches.

I don't take credit for this stuff other than Master of copy & paste

please give all props for this to the original creator

Toodles,
James

P.S. This is the first time I've added files to a message here so I hope it works. Just copy these 6 files into your profit UI folder overwriting the old ones.
