eXtremeUI v2

[sammeria]

Hey Landiin,

Not sure if you have noticed this but it seems the code or the labels in the information center got swapped, The HPr is showing power regen and the other one is showing health regen.

First of all I must say this; awesome UI Landiin, 5 stars in my book!

However, I have noticed a minor but quite irritating problem. When I switch characters in-game the background colors on the target hp-bar, your character's hp-bar, and pets hp-bar all turn either just green or just red instead of ranging from green to red. The text is still there but it gets very hard to read it.

Also noticed that when using the tabbed chat windows and have scrolled the tab furthest to the left out of view and then go back only part of the tab will be visible. Sometimes I only see the very right edge of it and it's refusing to scroll any more to the left.

If you scroll back through the 60+ pages you will see this issue has been brought up multiple times, (but I don't blame you for not looking through the 60+ pages).

These are both SOE issues and Landiin can't do anything about them, but you can. Every time you experience these issues /bug them, this is the squeaky wheel principle and maybe, just maybe it will get fixed.

Thanks, I browsed through a few pages, but didn't find anything on it, will /bug report it quite often, hehe

I fixed this by unlocking the window, stretching it a bit left or right then putting it back to the original size and relocking the window. Everything fell back into place. This worked even when I detached a tab or re-ordered them.

Where's the pet window? Haven't found it yet...

When you cast a pet it should open automaticly. But you can also use whatever key that is bound to it; by default its ctrl-p, I think.

I also tried to delete eq2ui_inventory_inventory.xml before repatching, but that didn't help. Could you please have another look on this? Thanks

Ack!

Well you may have to swap over to default to get them for now. I've been shipped out of town for school and will not be back at my comp until 9-18 . I'll try to download the UI on this laptop and see if I can't get it fixed. I'll be a patch( zip file though) as my works blocks FTP protocol so I can't update it on the updater till I get back.

Is there any word on whether or not the implied target has been fixed? As far as mousing over the icons?

Now that you say that I did notice that the other day. I'll see about getting that fixed also. Assuming I'm able to get the UI downloaded.

Been working on it:P At this time if the Implied target is active the targets buffs/debuffs can't me moused over but the implied's can. If no implied then the targets can me..

[Landiin]

R you guys sure you can't access the overflow? Can you access the bag next to it? Let me know about the bag because I don't' see any reason why it's blocking the access to overflow.

[DysePro]

Only having problems with Overflow items. Rest is good again.

had it happen again tonight.

The other items are now clickable and such. SoE said they changed something to stop EQ2 from crashing when using a UI. Wonder if they reversed something you just patched, because it was working.

When I right click it gives me examine, close, lock/unlock window only.

Is it possible to 'Not' update the Quick Char Switch page every time you do a UI update? It can be quite anoying to have to re-populate that data to use the quick character switch in the game.

It would also be nice to opt-out of upating some of the general UI image updates. Clan logo and changes to the general UI gets wiped out with each update. (I've done some decent cleanups to the main interface to give it a better appearance and would like it not to be deleted all the time.)

[Cydien]

You can exclude the corresponding file from updating.
Just open AUCP, go to AUCP->Settings, then UI->Excluded Files.
Add the file aucp_QuickCharSwitch.xml (it's in the folder user_settings) and you're done
Should work for the images, too, I think, but didn't try that myself.

I've also had trouble with this (I'm sure everyone has) To be more specific, the space where the overflow items are displayed only lets you reposition the window. Double clicking, right clicking, etc. don't work.

Everything else seems fine except for the overflow slot. The only solution I was able to come up with was uninstall Extreme UI, use the default Sony UI, remove the overflow, then reinstall.This does prevent TSing as you keep getting your inventory is full message.

[Landiin]

OK back at a comp connected to the internat.. ( laptop isn't wi-fi so no hotel connection)

I got a copy of the offending window and will fix it and get it on the updater ASAP.

You need to add the file aucp_QuickCharSwitch.xml to the exclude list in settings. If you don't that file will be updated/changed back to default every time you run AUCP. You will find the file at UI\eXtreme\user_settings\aucp_QuickCharSwitch.xml.

That is an image file and yes it can be changed. You first need to add ui\eXtreme\user_settings\images\guildlogo.dds to the exclude list. Then Create your own image and replace guildlog.dds with that one. If you have Photo Shop I have included a template for you to use. You can find the template in the same directory as the guildlogo.dds file.

HelloS,

first of all...awesome UI

But ...i got a slight problem with it...whenever i switch into windowed mode to check something on the Internet and then switch back to full screen mode it slightly messes up the UI.

The left buttom Chatbox gets moved down a few pixels and the result is that i can't see the text i input anymore...only solution i found so far is to unlock the window and manually move it up a bit which gets rather tedious after a while.

Same problem with some of the other windows like the Buff/Effect window for the current target which also obviously gets moved down a bit and overlaps the hitpoints of my char.

Any solution for this ? would be appreciated.

Yea, I have that problem too with the chat windows, as far as the target and implied target window, it will fix itself if you simply retarget.
As for a fix for the chat window, maybe Landiin can say something about it, but i have a feeling that we will have to live with it.

You can try changing the option to let windows off screen to see if that will fix it. Thats what I think causes it any ways. I never can remember to test it. When you have the option to not let windows outside the viewing area and you go into windowed mode it forces the windows out side the viewing area because it shrinks the game window to fit onto the desktop. So when you go back into full screen mode, the windows hang where they are. So setting the option to allow them off screen might stop them from hanging or it may not.

In short; I know it's a bug but not all sure if its the UI or SOE... I'll blame it on SOE though.

Am I missing something? I've run the AU twice since this post and nothing has been downloaded. It reads 371 files scanned; New 0; Current 370; Updated 0; Skipped 0; Downloaded 0/0. The difference between files scanned and files current makes me wonder what is missing.
