sounds like you haven't updated the UI files since SF and battlegrounds released.

I update Profit once a week i update eq2.exe once a week the funny part it was working just fine then it started doing it yesterday with out changing anything

I would recommend downloading the quick raid buttons file again as that issue seems to be familar when SF first released. Also was you in battle grounds when this happened? There is a known issue while being inside battle grounds. Reloading the client will normally fix it but it will reappear when you zone into battlegrounds.

Also it looks like theres a space in there that shouldn't be parent.profi tui_subclassdetector and could be breaking the file.

That space is probably just the forum (software code) breaking up a long line of characters in normalized text.

It will continue to happen I promise. I cant explain why but it will. I had this problem and found a solution on another webpage. Make a macro that says

/show_window Custom.ProfitUI_SubClassDetector

when the problem happens click the macro and poof back to normal. It usually only happens to me when I do battlegrounds but saves you from relogging and rebooting alot

If that actually works then the game must have a bug which unloads that window at some point. Interesting. Or you are running a very very old version of the subclass detector file which actually used to run subclass detection OnShow, but the current version does not do anything OnShow (except hide the window again).

What happens in ProfitUI is when the UI is first loaded the ProfitUI Control Center loads all the custom windows, including the subclass detector. The initialization code is only run once and deactivates itself after that, because once all windows are loaded they should stay in memory.

But if you are losing the subclass detector window from memory are other custom windows like the bottom bar gone, too?

When you come back to your home server from battlegrounds, much of the UI gets reset -- that's probably when that window is being unloaded.

I notice it in Fetish because the stat bar always pops up and my chat channels always end up in my main chat tab. It's really annoying how it reloads it, and I've /bug'd it a few times in the hope that they can find a better way of transitioning between the servers without forcing the UI to reload that way each time.

**gm9** · #10 05-16-2010, 10:10 AM

I see. Well it's easy to fix then, for ProfitUI one way is to trigger the initialization routine in the control center OnHide of whatever window is active while you're in battlegrounds.

yea, when you go to BG and when you exit BG the game does something weired to the _HUD node sort of like going LD. I just have my UI execute basic ini scripts ever 30 sec to combat the LD/BG bug.

I tried the subclass detector macro and it did not resolve this issue for me. Any suggestions?

Sharky90 · #13 06-23-2010, 10:57 AM

hmm stay tuned... started working yesterday without me doing anything as far as I could tell...
