ProfitUI Reborn [Help & Feedback]

[bacon360]

When I load the c&b, my first tab is ooc..and nothing is selected in it. Next I dont know if all the UIs do this, but I can't have guild chat on two different tabs. It might be other things too, I don't know.

sweet that will work ..thank you xarox

Hi there,
I'm new to using different UI's, and I have to say that this one is very good. Nice functionality while still keeping the feel of the game. Great work.

I am having some slight problems and I'm not sure if it is something I need to do.

1) With LU 22 they added the function where an unguilded character can use the guild window to search for guilds that are recruiting. However, I am unable to gett this window to come up. Is there something I need to do to enable this?

2) Also the panic button (great idea), strips the armour of my character, however, because my bags tend to be full a lot, I just get a message saying I can't do this. Is there a way to disable the removal of clothing?

3) This is more stylistic, but the experience number and Loading text reminds me more of a football scoreboard, and I wondered if there was a way to change this text so it was more like the rest of the UI.

Thank you in advance for any help. And also thank you for creating and maintaining an excellent UI.

First off, I really love the UI.

I'm having a slight problem with the quest helper. Normally I run in 1600x1200. If I hit alt-enter or ctrl-esc to swap to other programs, or if something like the Windows Updater pleading with me to restart steals focus, the screen dimensions change (Completely variable - but the exact dimensions at testing 1444x1095.)

The quest helper both resizes and moves - this is probably working right? But when I go back into full screen mode, the quest helper is now off of my screen and sized the same dimensions as it was before. This causes me to unlock it, move it back, and lock it again every time.

None of the other game windows do this... Is there any particular reason this happens?

Somehow I messed up my compass window. It no longer shows the earth/game time and current zone. It still has the coords, is there a way for me to get the rest of the window back? Thanks

In your Profitdirectory, open the eq2ui_mainhud.xml in an editor and insert these two lines just above the </Page>

<include>eq2ui_mainhud_guildbrowser.xml</include>
<include>eq2ui_mainhud_guildrecruitingdetails.xml</include>

Alt-P

Ok, apparently I have to fill up the message with at least 10 characters in order to be able to post at all hehe. Should be enough now, though. Yeah - this should do the trick.

Am i the only one having BIG xp numbers? I cant even see it all

And what is that about a panic button?

ohh and my quest book open all quest when i Open it, is there a solution for that?

Hi all, I'm back and I bring ProfitUI 2.3.

((Known Issues))

Quote:
[2.2.2]
* Waypoint indicator icon does not show up on the map.
* "Find" button in Store to Market window has mixed results.
* Channels reset to main when switching characters. (EQ2 bug?)

Fixed the first, might have fixed the second (can't reproduce the problem), and the third one is indeed for SOE to fix.

((Suggestions in Consideration))

Quote:
[2.2.2]
** More user-friendly (and customizable) hotbars.

As I said, from my point of view the hotbars are done.

* Add buy quantity/buy stack option to Broker window.
* Add "My class/level" button on the market window.

Done.

* Auto-Updater
* Bring back the LFG button?

I won't program an auto-updater, but if somebody want's to contribute one (incl. hosting space) I'll gladly support it. I might throw a lfg button on the persona bar in the future, in the meantime typing four letters (/lfg) won't kill you.

* Compact/streamline the maintained spells window.
* Comptability to have maintained spells switched to left side of window.

Both done, but only to a minor degree for the "compacting" part. I'll probably not bother to make a smaller version of this, but if somebody else wants to do it go for it.

For the moment you'll find the download and a complete changelog in my post on the main forum thread. It'll take a while until the official download will be updated.

Not sure what you mean with BIG xp numbers, maybe post a screenshot so we can better help.

The panic button is mostly redundant after LU22, before it was to avoid repair costs.

The open quests in the quest journal are SOE's doing. I could maybe workaround by reducing them automatically when the journal is shown, but then I would annoy those people who like it expanded, so I left it alone so far.

Hit Alt-C to bring up the clock window.

Hmm, I might have forgotten to check /ooc for ooc, I didn't yet check. Apart from the I didn't select any channels in there so you can put them in your own order.

For the guild chat edit eq2.ini and add the following line:

chat_allowduplicatechannels 1

This isn't included in the eq2.ini that comes with ProfitUI, which is probably why it stopped working for you (if it worked before).

I have to type /show_window mainHUD.Memorized to make it appear each login.

My question is, is there a seperate file or line of code that governs whether the stat bar is visible at login? If so what do I need to include or edit so that I wouldn't have to make a macro to open it every time?

Thanks,

Just put this code in the <page> section of any window (unless it already has OnShow code):

OnShow="show_window=Mainhud.Memorized show_window=Mainhud.Memorized"

In ProfitUI this is in the XP window.

thx

Copy the file eq2ui_mainhud_startbutton.xml from ProfitUI into your custom UI directory. Or, if you want to use it with the default UI, install ProfitUI and delete every file in the ProfitUI directory except for this one.

In the guild window itself, it lists it at 92.7%. I verified this by checking my wife's guild experience display. She runs on ThorUI. Her display also says 92.7%.

Thanks for the report. I'll have to check that.

It's surprising though, since there's no calculation done to the value at all, I just dump what SOE gives me.

Btw, I noticed that you have points "." behind the time displays that shouldn't be there. Strange...

Is there a way to permanantly turn off/disable the bottom bar? As it stands right now I have to manually shut it off, everytime I log in.

Thx.

Just set frame and titlebar to "none".

Somebody should be able to make that vertical option easily. It will be huge, though, so I won't be doing it. To make the window sizeable is likely too much of a pain.

The target window acts like it will resize when you turn off the effect icons, but in actuality it does not. Further, the implied window does not have an option to turn off the effect icons. It would be great to have a toggle on both of these to both hide the effects and resize the entire windows.

You can resize it to hide the effect icons. You also have two options for the icon sizes. Making is resizable in horizontal direction is again too much of a pain, since text will have to wrap, everything else be pushed down, etc.

You have a thing for resizing, that's all. Same respone as above, although somebody might make a 24px version.

a mini inv window is already included.

no, I couldn't reproduce this.

I think there's an issue when you try to do this via a slider, but I can't see right now why there should be. Lol. I might have a look, I agree that it would make more sense to put in a slider.

Thanks for the link, I liked the ideas there. I transported the functionality to our existing market window and fixed the issues that I found with Valdacil's window.

No to that, since all the stats are visible in ProfitUI in the stats bars anyway.

Basically, you forgot that window names are case sensitive.

Interesting. Window names definitely are not case sensitive on my system. Important to know that they are for other people, I'll have to consider that in the future. However, to be properly case sensistive, you would have to write MainHUD.Socials. Again interesting that the first part apperently doesn't matter on your system.

On this point of random rambling I'll finish spamming the forum, I just thought I'd catch up on some posts since I was away for a while.

Xarox, I can't reproduce this. Maybe it was just a glitch in the data delivered by SOE.

[aigor]

What can i say??..Thanks for that great work,
i've dl version 2.3 with some adds and some fixes and everything works perfectly.
Probably for me it was better to left the social window on chat ( for a simple use) but i like even this.
I would suggest this addon for mainteined spell that it works perfectly "Geniva's Profit Mainteined Slim"
http://www.eq2interface.com/download...fo.php?id=3969
It's more slim than default and it would be good if you add in new Profit ( with options left and right)^^

enjoy^^

[gm9]

Thanks aigor, I'll take a look at that.

Apart from that: I hadn't noticed that the target window didn't show target effects when using con version 1 (I'm using 0). I just uploaded a new v2.3 including a fix (or rather a workaround, since this seems to be SOE's bug). You can also dl the xml separately.

Yep, I checked again just now when you wrote this and it's back to normal. Showing the same xps in both places.

And, welcome back!
