It's a known behavior in the Java Runtime::exec() method. The obvious form takes a single string argument and tokenizes it on whitespace, first token being the program to run. Since the tokenizing ignores quotes, paths with whitespace in them cause problems. There's an alternate form that takes an array of strings which avoids that problem, but I'll bet the updater uses the single-string command-line version. Solutions are to put EQ2 in a path with no spaces in any of the parts, or make a wrapper .bat file located in such a path that runs the real launchpad.

Though I do as Mysstie does, I only run the updater when I'm expecting a UI update so I don't have it start anything. I use the EQ2Map updater to start the game, since I normally do want the maps updated before starting the game.

I don't play caster classes much, but I noticed (as well as others in my guild) that when clicking a curable on a merc the in game response is that the merc cannot be found. However, targeting the merc and clicking cure from the hotbar works just fine - just not from the click cures.

Is there a work around for this as I'm not the only one experiencing this.

TIA

I think it has to do with mercs having spaces in their names, which breaks the commands used for click-to-cure. It can probably be switched to use the /cureplayer command which takes group/raid position, detriment type and (optional) spell/potion/pet flag, but Drums and Profit don't use that in the group window.

**Drumstix42** · #5 09-18-2013, 07:43 AM

I've meant to supply a backup variable so that the mercs could be supported, at least for the English client, but I thought I read they fixed something about mercs and cure/casting commands. Maybe they only fixed one and not the other (wouldn't be surprised).

The window showing the Adventure, Crafting & AA progress resets to center of screen every time I start the game or camp to a new character. I place in the top left corner and when ever i log to a character it's back to center screen. Any clue on what I need to do to fix this?

**Drumstix42** · #7 10-24-2013, 04:47 PM

The XP bar?

Could be something with your xml uisettings file. Hard to say. You could try finding the Experience line in the file an deleteing it.

I'll give that a shot. Can you tell me the name of the file that I can look in? That'd be very helpful. Thanks.

It depends on your server, but this is mine:
Antonia Bayle_Drumstixx_eq2_uisettings.xml

I know you are busy with the new expan and all, hopefully you will see this eventually. I see that the char window has changed greatly. Very confusing but I will work through it eventually. The really big issue I am having is with the merc window. How do I get the merc back? The merc window has changed so much I can not understand it at the moment. But I desperately need to get my merc back without going back to Qeynos several times.

I am getting around this by using the command line to get it back, finally wrote it down so I could find it. Any chance of adding it to the window please? Having an extremely hard time without merc on all but my raid geared toon.

You will need to put the site in compatibility mode for the launch button to work correctly with Java installed. Hit Alt+X, select compatibility view settings, and add the site (this is after you click the file in the zip which is a shortcut to take you to the site).

I am having alot of issues trying to get the stat bar to show up for me, I can access both the drumsui menu and the stat bar menu but i cannot find the stat bar itself i have deleted and reinstalled i have used every command that i have seen on the forums trying to locate it and i still have not found it, my start menu is not the drums menu so i am not sure if that has something to do with it or not i have been trying to figure this out and i have ran out of ideas, i also used the flash command that you gave me as well, i logged into other characters and i could not find it on them either,

The Stat Menu is a replacement for the Start Button.

dragonsbane24 · #14 11-24-2013, 08:15 PM

That is what i am having trouble with is the start button i cannot find it

The new Updater has been uploaded (once validated):
http://www.eq2interface.com/download...fo.php?id=4965

You can remove your old DrumsUI shortcuts.

The Updater is now installed via an Installer. The Updater will install like a normal windows program, complete with an Uninstall option in Control Panel, and a desktop shortcut. The updater will now check for local existing Java versions, and attempt to initialize a Java install if one doesn't exist.

There have been no actual updates to my UI pushed live yet, so there will be no updated files if you're already up to date. You WILL have to select your Updater options like you're installing new, and Ignore any files again that you may have had on Ignore before. I'll have an update uploaded incoming, including merc window updates and lots of other updates/changes.

As usual, please report any bugs.

My merc return window shows a $hire$ button and I am able to click the button ( window size not an issue ). Nothing happens. I am unable to switch between mercs. I can use the /merc resume and bring the active monk back but I can not change to my healer merc. Would this be an issue with Drums or with Sony? Or would this be a user issue... IE ME...

The folks who use profit also have the issue, soe done something with the window and I recon he will get around to fixing it soon I hope as its been a pita.

It's an issue with the persona (character) window. SOE changed the mercenary pane around again, and the old code no longer works. Drumstix will probably be releasing an updated version soon. You should be able to replace your merc by actually going to them and hiring them through their dialog, that's unaffected by the merc pane issue.

Mysstie · #20 01-21-2014, 06:14 PM

Decided to go ahead and install the latest version of Java as well. Kind of glad that you hadn't pushed out any new updates to the files yet. Made it much easier to re-ignore the files I needed to because those were all the ones it said I needed to update.

Anyway, new updater seem to be working fine. Thanks to all those that worked on it!

Ensure that each character has it toggled on in the Main Menu, try disabling it and turning it back on. The setting saves per character.

The auto attack bar is strange, as it's part of the Default UI but just modified. It should only be showing when auto attack is on/incombat, at least the bars. I forget if the frame stays visible or not off hand.

can you double check your UI folder, and see if there exists a drumsui_spelltimer.xml file inside the /DrumsUI/poi/ folder.

I am also having this problem too, but it only happens when I camp from one character to another. I look to see if the "target casting bar" is checked and it is. I have to uncheck it and then check it again to make it appear. I do have that file in that folder.
