guys - thought would post here before pestering Drago with it
ok - I have installed the mod (still think its great by the way) and I then had a look in the uibuilder as was feeling brave (total noob here) to see about textures for the bars.
when i looked at the asssigned shapes for the colored bars, it would seem that there were already a few choices, to which I thought great! i proceeded to edit the xml data - specifically i clicked on the picture file which brought up a graphical display, moved the selection window to cover the (same shape) texture I wanted and saved everything.
this did not go so well when i replaced the file in my eq2 ui folder, came up but with bits missing! replaced original xml file and all was peachy again
ok - any help or pointers in what I have done that is so obviously wrong would be much appreciated!!
