ok, I see that someone earlier has said something about the problem
" The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135). Click on OK to terminate the application."

I dont know too much about computers.. but is there a way you could possibly tell me what i need to do to fix this problem?

William Evans · #2 05-29-2005, 01:47 PM

ok im dumb

i tried and tried to follow the instructions on how to install this UI but im at wits end here everything i do results in ....nothing.... like as in like i have done nothing. my map window is still the same with the same ol maps and everything.

I need literaly a step by step instructions here is what i did

Current Install Steps:
Download the interface you wish to use Done eqmaps
Make a new folder with any name BUT with no spaces or special charaters (example: bobsui) in the UI folder that is inside your Everquest II directory.
made a folder inside the UI folder called mapui

Unzip the xml, dds, tga (dds,tga's must be in a images sub-folder) files into your newely created folder. Please make sure you dont have a folder inside of a folder when you do this. %\Everquest II\UI\bobsui\jillsui\*.xml (wrong) | %\Everquest II\UI\bobsui\*.xml (correct)
this paragraph is confusing first it says to put the files in different folders then is says dont so i have everything in my mapui folder atm

If you are going to use multiple interface peices just unzip all of them into the same folder. this is as confusing as the last statement

Go back to your Everquest II directory and create a new text file and put the following code inside of it:
Code:

cl_ui_skinname bobsui
cl_ui_subdir UI/

did this in a new .ini file and not a ini.txt

cl_ui_skinname mapui
cl_ui_subdir UI/mapui

Save the file as eq2.ini (make sure you dont save it as eq2.txt or eq2.ini.txt)
Load up Everquest II and your new interface should be working.

Same ole map window

Once they fix the /loadui command using custom interfaces will be ALOT easier and these steps will be updated.

Hmmm... Are you running the latest version of the Updater?
Here's a link to it.

After reinstalling .net Framwork and reinstalling the updater I am still getting these errors. I seem to be having problems interpreting the xml but what should I do?

jrmars · #6 03-20-2005, 10:28 AM

cannot get .net software to work is there any alternative or cannot i just not get my maps that i want?

tonyis3l33t · #7 03-20-2005, 11:23 AM

there is an alternative. We will be releasing the mod in the traditional manner every once in a while. Just look for those. They will of course be a lot less frequent than the auto-updater.

xelatoth · #8 03-20-2005, 02:21 PM

I can no longer use your awesome mod "EQ2Map Updater" to launch EQ2 because while it is updating, an error box pops up...

This is what it says:

The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found.

File: runnyeye.dds

After that, it will not let you select launch EQ2 or run with Auto Launch selected, so essentially, everyone has to run EQ2 without your program...

Please fix this asap because, to be quite honest, I am not sure I can even play EQ2 without this mod - - it's THAT GOOD!!!

Thanx

tonyis3l33t · #9 03-20-2005, 02:34 PM

i fixed it before you posted this. lemme know after you try again pls

FlorenceSopher · #10 03-20-2005, 06:37 PM

This has happened to myself and another player I turned on to EQ2MAP today. After receiving the latest files update, upon zoning into EQ all 3d graphics are BLACK! hotkeys are there, chat window with text, but the rest of the screen is black! After a few moments (seems to vary) the eq2 client crashes completlely! My guild memeber has uninstalled eq2map and eq2 and is presently reinstalling eq2 from the original disks. I was hoping there may be an answer here, since the ONLY connection is that we are both running eq2map

taco-man · #11 03-20-2005, 06:37 PM

i will look into it right away.

taco-man · #12 03-20-2005, 06:42 PM

try running the updater again, it is working fine for me. i know this was an issue earlier but it was already corrected, just run the updater again.

Yes Tacoman this should be fixed now, and the updater is working fine. The issue was with the eq2ui_mainhud_map.xml file there was in include statement in that file that did not have a coresponding icon's file generated for it. Quib generated the icon file that was missing and after I re-ran the updater the issue that FlorenceSopher is describing went away.

Florence, You shouldhn't have to ever re-install EQ2 if an issue happens like this either uninstall the EQ2 Map Mod or go into your custom UI folder and delete the EQ2Map files the game should then self correct it self as it is using the Default UI's files.

Once the issue is fixed that caused the problem you can then re-install and re-run the EQ2MAP Updater.

FlorenceSopher · #14 03-21-2005, 11:41 AM

Just wanted to post an update. Yes, it is working now. Thank you for the prompt response and fix. You guys have got a GREAT tool here.

On another front, might I make a suggestion? On the Submit a POI screen would it be possible to retain the POI Type and Zone Name from entry to entry? It would make the process of entering POIs a little quicker if the webpage kept those values so I do not have to reenter them each time. Thanks!

*cough*RTFM*cough* You need Microsoft .Net Framework 1.1 or better.

Please make sure you have the .Net Framework 1.1 or 2.0 Beta installed. Also what is your Processor, and Windows Version? There are links to the .NET framework in various posts here.

Quib · #19 03-21-2005, 01:03 PM

Maxham, it sounds like the auto-updater isn't getting the file list properly from the EQ2MAP website. I can't be sure whether it's a problem with the updater, the website or with your internet connection. Is the error message always exactly the same?

Colbalt, my best guess is you have managed to download a critical file during one of the major format transitions in the past couple days and have a file that's screwing up. Go to the following folder:
\EverQuest II\UI\EQ2MAP\eq2map
It should be packed full of XML files. Delete all of them and re-run the auto-updater. It won't take long to redownload because they're just small text files.

My best guess is you happened to patch and get an important file right as we were changing it. If what I suggested above doesn't work, try deleting everything in
\EverQuest II\UI\EQ2MAP
Meaning everything in that EQ2MAP folder, don't delete anything from your EQ2 main folder.

If that STILL doesn't work, then it's probably something I screwed up when updating our main map file and there's nothing wrong with your install.

Quib

Colbalt · #20 03-21-2005, 01:08 PM

Thanks Quib..... will do or just did it.

Now if SOE can get the servers back up I will let ya know.

Thank you for such a great Mod. Awesome job all.

maxham · #21 03-21-2005, 02:47 PM

Quib,

The error seems to be diffrent every time I try to update but some do repeat every once in while. And sometimes it will get the file list but error on some other xml file.
I have had this problem since [beta .95] befor that it worked just fine.
And I agree with you that the problem is probaly something on my end as no one else, even those who lives on my dorm floor (and share internet connection) have this problem.

tonyis3l33t · #22 03-21-2005, 02:51 PM

we will post a traditional version here in a bit for peeps like you! hooray

Quib · #23 03-21-2005, 02:58 PM

My guess is that your internet connection is timing out befoer it gets the whole update file list. So it's erroring when trying to parse a half downlaoded XML file.

Suggestions would be to try reinstalling .NET framework, probably the 2.0 beta of it.
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

I'll be updating the traditional zip download soon, so you could download it if you still can't use the auto-updater. It'd be better to not give up on it though; I'll keep brainstorming. I have a good idea of what the problem is, just am not sure what's needed to fix it.

Quib

Colbalt · #24 03-22-2005, 12:17 PM

Thanks Quib, That worked

taar · #25 04-24-2005, 01:55 PM

Running EQ2MAP_Updater_0.97_Setup.exe is supposed to download and install EQ2map folder if it doesn't already exist. Tried and tried and tried, and that didn't happen, it wouldn't create an eq2map folder. This is because I already had a eq2.ini file created in order to enable antialiasing, and since the installer only checks for the existence or non-existence of eq2.ini, it failed to create eq2map folder and download maps into it.

Instead, it should look for eq2.ini and parse it looking for the lines you want to add, if not there, preserve the existing lines and add the news ones.
