it would be VERY helpful if you could include this into your next update

Under the window options toggle the frames and the buttons will show.. Once you do this they will show from then on..

Ok I had tried this UI in the past and there was some issues so I didnt use it. I just downloaded this new version today and installed it but when I go into the game it looks nothing like the images. I have several new looking items on the screen but I have windows that I cant do anything with. I really confused and so Im going to wipe the directory and try again but if anyone else knows why this may be I sure would love to hear from you as this does look like a great UI.

Go to settings, then click on advanced options and set up your uisettings.ini file.

Latest version seems to be missing the "add" button for collections. You can still drag-drop items into collections though...
Great UI by the way!

Hi Landiin,

I have a few problems with the new UI that I made screenshots of. In the 1st screenshot you can see there's a problem with the dropdown menu in the center. The others have blank info for each of those tabs. As for everything else, I have no problems with anything else. Gotta love this UI

Viper62 · #7 03-11-2006, 01:34 PM

Thanx Landin for the help. I was there at that spot but was expecting to be able to edit the settings and did not see a way to do that. Once I selected the ini file and resolution things did start to look right. So far I have noticed though that the targeting and implied targeting does not appear to come up and the pet bar is only showing the pets health and power but none of the options to attack or anything show up. Thats it so far but it does really look good so keep up the good work!

That's an issue with the letter box frame. All windows position is relative to the size of the letter box frame. So if you have a different letter box frame setting then what was used setting up the uisettings.ini file things will be off.

You can probably find the targeting windows under the start window. just unlock it and move it out of the way then reposition the targeting windows.

I just fixed the pet window so the command buttons would show. I had mistakenly left in some old code that would switch between icon or button commands. I have taken out the button commands but left in the code to switch between the two. It should be good now. Before you would have to turn off the frames to see the icon commands.

If it is there in default it should be there in the one I offer. All I did was move the detailes window to the side from the bottom.

Button was back next log on... Whatever caused it, it's fine now.

Would like to point out that in the UI Control Panel, the web browser for EQ2Map doesn't resize with the rest of the window.

will fix, thanks for pointing that out.

Bodhi · #15 03-13-2006, 02:25 PM

I had just downloaded the latest version, un-installed the old, then ran the installer. Everything was working great, but I never had to select a character ui file(Did you change this?). I then ran the control panel, it told me there was nothing new to downlaod, so I launch the game, but when I get there, I only have default ui. I tried /loadui, but there was only default there.
Also, when I tried to close the control panel I got this message "Access violation at address 00000022. Read of address 00000022." I ended up doing a ctrl+alt+del end task to get it to close, after which I can't bring up the control panel at all anymore, I click it, but nothing happens.
I've tried uninstalling and the re-installing it, I've even re-downloaded and get the same thing.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong here?

I also think the eq2.ini is not in the same place as U.S. installed clients. Because the AUCP reads this file to make sure eXtreme is the default UI. So if you didn't get a messagebox asking if you wanted to set eXtreme as your default UI then if found that file and seen eXtreme was set to default. Maybe post a Screen Shot of your everquest ii directory.

Any way; the uisettings did change, You can to it by going to settings-> advanced options ( its a button at the bottom). This will bring up a new window where you can select the uisettings.ini file you want to use along with the resolutions available.

Bodhi · #17 03-14-2006, 10:48 AM

No, I'm not in the US. I think I know what you mean about having to load it to a different file though, (I 've been using your UI for quite sometime now, and installed it many times as well). I Install Extreme UI to my LP_REGION_EN_US file, as I've done every other time. Anyway, I just downlaoded it and I'm gonna try it out when the servers come back again. I still can't find the background.dds :-/ I've searched everywhere and I can't find it. Also, on the CP, I can't close it either, again. I get the same message as before. Is it possible that somehow, I'm not getting the complete Extreme files?
I'd send you a screen shot of my EQ2 directory, but I'm not sure how to do that :-/

Bodhi · #18 03-14-2006, 11:01 AM

OK, I guess I deserve to be slapped for not reading your install directions and the note about those of us with non-US games... my bad. I'll try the work arround and see how that works out for me

Bodhi · #19 03-14-2006, 11:49 AM

Well, I can't seem to make it work :-/ I tried adding a file called everquest2.exe, but it won't let me, cuz it says I already have one. I'll just keep looking back in for when you are able to work arround whatever is causing it not to install correctly and then try again, until then, I'm still very happy with version 2.2, so I'll stick with it.

zaran · #20 03-14-2006, 12:50 PM

My english is not so well...

Zaran add cl_letter_box_amount 0.135000 to eq2.ini or eq2_recent.ini if you want to be able to change it. Then run AUCP and go to the settings tab and click on the advanced option button ( at the bottom of that page). This will open up a new window. There you can select the uisetting.ini file and a premade resolution file.

sammeria · #22 03-14-2006, 02:36 PM

Landiin,

On the subject of target buffs...

Can these be coded into a seperate window?

I wish but they are hord coded into said windows

Wolffire · #24 03-14-2006, 02:39 PM

I have the same problem with the installer like Bodhi.
(Adress Violation)
I live in Germany but thats not the problem, I think.

On the last Update the updater loads the file "eXtremeUI_CP.tmp".
After download and Mapupdate the updater want to be restart itself.
But the window is still open and the updater have not the permissions to delete the eXtremeUI_CP.exe.
After the crash I copy manually the eXtremeUI_CP.tmp to eXtremeUI_CP.exe and all Adress Violations will be gone.

Oh thats good to know Wolffire.

I think I'll change the way it updates it self. Instead of having it download itself I'll have the CPPatcher down load it, that will stop the issue of the cppather not having access to delete files.
