Really wanted to thank you for so much hard work on that. I am just not any kind of expert so trying to do all of the files correctly was beyond my ability not only did you take away the fear involved. I am learning alot about how the files go in - No room for Ego Im in kindergarten when it comes to this stuff. Thank you so much. Im so glad you took the time for this.

Question - If you find time. Do you think one of the updates might be the spell sort window in the knowledge book - with the changes Im getting just a little confused with what is on the same (timer ?) and proper level. Anything you could do would be helpful - My hotbar is starting to look like my sons room. eek.

Thank you Elslight,
I have a quick mod for the knowledge book sort in the ThorUI AU beta now.
I'll attach it to this thread and remove it after the AU launches.
Simply right click and choose save as then browse to the ThorUI folder normally here: C:\Program Files\Sony\EverQuest II\UI\ThorUI

Ok, I have just started using your UI, and I must say thank you for incorporating some of the things I loved about the Fenix Arcane into your UI. It is wonderful. However, I am having an issue... If I open a new chat window, I am unable to manipulate around the screen, and I do not have the ability to close it. Is the a function keyset that will close chat windows? I have attempted changing the window to "frame only", "none" and every other option I can think of, but to no avail. I able to resize the window, but not move or close it.

hmm sounds like the window settings may have gotten corrupt.
Right click choose window settings and click the default opacities and location.
This "should" allow you to close it.
I admit I need to refine my chat a bit and plan to do so as soon as ThorUI AU is released.
Let me know if this didn't fix it and I'll see what else we can do.

Nope, that didn't fix it. It is not a huge deal at this time, but something to look at for your next patch. But, if you think of something else, let me know and I will try it.

To start off with, im using thorui ver 4.8.6 and have used the ThorUI DoF Patch v1.0 over that. i have uninstalled and reinstalled to see if it would fix. The window that shows player health, power, name, conc slots used... etc is not showing my name or the numerical value of hp and power. Having the numbers always visible was quite useful to me. When i reinstalled i made sure not to alter any of the options that looked to have anything to do with this window. Any suggestions as to what may have caused this?

edit. After playing some i have found that my group members names and hp/power also do not show, and none of my spell bars show the key bindings anymore. i wonder if these are all related.

Great UI ! But i fear I am missing something or just not reading ur instructions correctly. I did install the newer version via the Automatic Download (which is the greatest thing since slice bread) as well as the hotfix patch. That all went well. I went to change the UI settings from thorui_1920x_eq2_uisettings.ui to grobb_cielo_eq2_uisettings.ini Which should work but i get all the boxes all over the screen and not anywhere near what ur config looks like. Now I did a whole lot trying of diff things but no luck. I checked the UI log this is the only thing in it. "Couldn't load eq2ui_listboxrow_template.xml"
Any ideas or help as to what it could be? Thanx

Cielo

All issues noted sound like the results of the ThorUI DoF patch not being applied correctly.
Try running the patch again and ensure you direct the install to your EverQuest II directory not your ThorUI directory.
For example:
Correct: C:\Program Files\Sony\EverQuest II
Incorrect: C:\Program Files\Sony\EverQuest II\UI\ThorUI

If that doesn't work there will be a simpler way available Monday (see post after next)

Read the first post

You need to apply my DoF patch.

Or you could hold off 2 days and install our new and improved ThorUI AU Monday.

I'm new to the ThorUI and think it's great. How do I get the buff window on screen though. When passing players buff me I'd like to see what I'm getting.

Apart from this question the UI really works well.
