ThorUI AU (Auto Update) [Interface Discussion] - Page 3

**Faetyl** · #1 10-08-2005, 04:26 PM

I modified them making them larger for some that complained about the size being to small.

If they are too large now just let me know and I'll make a small and large version... (Just realize it makes updates take that much longer so no yelling at me when they need to be updated)

Basic rule is I plan to make them match my player and group windows now...
So expect the small version to be the same size as those.

Greetings,

I found a bug with the help feature with your UI. When I click on the Knowldege tab I can not search nor can I submit a trouble ticket.

Not sure if anyone else is having this issue. I have no other mods installed I am using the Auto Update as well...

Please take a look into this please. I need to submit a trouble ticket sometime soon.

Regards,

Issue addressed here:
http://www.eq2interface.com/forums/s...&postcount=106

I'll post the update as soon as it's updated by the author.

As always, remember there is always a work-a-round by deleting individual feature files if they pose an issue.
The ThorUI ounce again makes this easier by not requiring you to know what those files are.
Simply deselect the feature within ThorUI AU then delete the thorui folder.
Relaunch the ThorUI AU and it will redownload all selected files.

For some reason my updates dont initiate. When it tries to update it just says Program not responding.

Your body of work rocks !!!!
Just wanted to put that in.

Now to my issue...
In the EQ2 Help under "Knowledge"
I was unable to look up topics or was also unable to send a ticket.
Is this Sony related or is this UI related?

I tried this and it didn't do anything but fill in the circle. Also the slots look a little offset.

Delete "eq2ui_inventory_inventory.xml" from the thorui folder and run the ThorUI AU again.
You must have a corrupt Inventory file.

The slots are indeed offset.
You will see why when it works...

That's the AU trying to grap a file and unable to get to the file server. If it get's this far it is looking for a server lock to see if it should proceed. Sometimes Faetyl's server gets cooked (45GB of traffic...wonder why?

).

Try again in a little while and see if it works for you.

One thing...did you see the small web page at the bottom of the Auto Update screen? If you can see that it means that the server is probably fine...

My spellbook is a white block with no visible buttons. Spell icons are visible. I have to blindly mouse around to find "close", "next", "tradeskill", etc.

Also, in the EQ2 Button window, the display control buttons are now white squares. One icon in my Inventory window (next to bag-button) is also a white square.

Have already re-installed Thor with no luck.

Lastly, how do I access the UI control panel to make changes? I do not see any ThorUI AU files in the Thor directory.

Great UI, keep up the good work.

Run the auto-updater and hit the cancel button (before or after it runs its file check, it don't matter. Even though you'll need to rerun the scan for it to auto-launch anything). Hit the Advanced button, and you will see the Features tab. This is where you can make changes to any of the files used in your UI.

**Faetyl** · #16 10-17-2005, 08:46 PM

Reinstall probably isn't needed.
What is needed though is for you to browse to your "\EverQuest II\UI" directory and delete the thorui folder.
Launch the ThorUI AU and is "should" pull all the files down for you.

Let me know the results.

I just download the thorui updater..

it gets all the way to updating Icon_map3 then dies..

I tried redownloading and deleting the two directorys and installing agian and the same place it dies.

bluja000 · #18 10-21-2005, 08:53 AM

Maybe this is something having to do with Update #15 that hasn't been resolved, but my map window has changed, and not really for the better. The grid effect is gone, and that I don't mind, but more important is the fact that on many maps a number of icons have disappeared, and on the maps that have all their icons, the icons are much smaller than they used to be, like maybe 2 pixels across. It's very hard to mouse over them now. Are there some settings I need to change, or is there just an issue that hasn't been fixed yet concerning the latest update?

csdisme · #19 10-21-2005, 11:34 AM

Visually everything looks fine and when I attempt to send in a "ticket" I get the message stating that my ticket has been received. However, the window that shows all open tickets never shows anything. I can hit refresh but nothing ever shows up. I used to have 2 in there and now I don't. I saw earlier in this thread someone was having a problem similar to mine and the suggestion was made to delete the eq2ui_mainhud_help.xml file and run the updater and I have tried that but with the same result.

I suppose Sony could be just ignoring me

, but aside from that any other ideas??

Thanks for your help...

**Faetyl** · #20 10-21-2005, 07:38 PM

Mine is working fine.
Recommend you try again to see if perhaps they had an issue thats now resolved.
If it still doesn't work...
Do the typical, delete the EverQuest II\UI\thorui folder and redownload all UI files

Let us know what your findings are

Well, I deleted the folder and and downloaded the new UI files using the updater and it it the same. The window itself shows perfectly, just no info. It's like I have never sent in a help request, but I have sent probably 4-5 in the last week alone. I do have my settings in the advanced section of the updater set at "enhanced" for the help section. But I wouldn't think that would have anything to do with it.

Like I mentioned earlier, I did have a couple in there, but they are not showing up now. I can't really remember if I changed any settings when they disappeared.

Thanks again for the help....
