UI DID work.. but now doesn't

[Cynesgan]

I hope someone can help me with this as it is VERY strange.

About a month ago I started coming to the site and downloading piecemeal mods. I followed the installation instructions posted in the FAQ's and everything went beautifully. All mods were working.

Then the big LU13 download, and my UI is back to default. I figured that something in my UI files was at fault, possibly a non compatible .XML file.

I Moved all the contents out of my customer folder and placed a single XML file back in it (Mooks 3 in 1 hotkey bar). Tried the game again and still on default.

I next rewrote my eq2.ini which had been working by reversing the lines and tried again. Still not working. I deleted and recreated eq2.ini (I show all extensions and it is definately not eq2.ini.txt). Tried again and still got the default UI. Next I deleted and re-created my Custom folder and copied the single XML file back in by unzipping again. Still not working. I reversed the eq2.ini code lines back to original and deleted all Servername_character name files and tested. Still no custom UI.

This is driving me nuts as it DID work before the LU13 download.

If anyone has any further ideas of things I can try I would appreciate your input.
