- Now open your edited version in UIBuilder.

While in UIBuilder, inspect the tooltip property for SocietyLevelText. If the apostrohpy has been converted to ' or something other than a simple apostrophy, your editor changed the encoding.

Well I went 'round and 'round trying to find this window in MainHUD.

Didn't the devs take this window out, hence why it is not included the the mainhud.xml file?

Anywho....I added the include line to the mainhud.xml file so I could see the window in UIBuilder, and checked out the tooltip line and the apostrophy was still intact.

I opened and saved the eq2ui_mainhud_society.xml in Microsoft VCExpress.NET
