[DrumsUI] Full Interface
Game Update #56 Compatible

• Full Interface Support Topic
• DrumsUI Portal

Updater version: here


Description:
After several years of EQ2 UI modding, individual releases, and user requests, the DrumsUI is finally released as a full UI download. The DrumsUI's purpose is to add features to the standard interface windows while also saving screen space and eliminating unnecessary extras. This UI started out as personal modifications and has slowly evolved into user requested ideas as well as features combined with existing ideas.

The DrumsUI includes several settings (Self Cure window, Stat bar Window, Group/Raid Quick casts and cures) that are set up to be customizable from in-game and save both between sessions and different characters. When you first use the DrumsUI pieces, the default settings will be selected.

*Note: Included are some slightly edited map icons (originally created by gurkoz) and the skinnable map POI file. Feel free to remove the files from the "images" folder, "images/icons" folder and the "eq2map2/_Skinnable_POI_Icons.xml" file to return to default.

• Note: The InfoCenter is fully compatible with the DrumsUI. However, it is not included in this zip!

Installation Notes:
- How To: Install A Custom UI
- eq2.ini goes in your EverQuest 2 Installation folder.
- DrumsUI folder goes in your EverQuest 2/UI/ folder.

UNINSTALL YOUR OLD VERSION FIRST!
But save your /POI/drumsui_textsettings.xml to backup your Quick Button settings!
It's not likely to cause issues, but some files have changed and some have been removed!


Extra Notes:
- See the "Alternatives" folder in the DrumsUI folder to access some window variations. (eg. Tiny Group, Group with pet bars, Right-sided maintained, bottom-aligned voice chat, etc.)

- Copy and rename any of the below to use a supplied layout:
* DrumsUI_1280x1024_layout.xml
* DrumsUI_1440x900_layout.xml
* DrumsUI_1680x1050_layout.xml

To: serverName_characterName_eq2_uisettings.xml (ie: Blackburrow_Drumstixx_eq2_uisettings.xml)
Remember that the supplied UIsettings file won't have all your chat settings configured, so be sure to re-configure your options!

Update Log:
v1.11 - 2010.05.03
- Update: Target/Implied windows have been updated with a style closer matching the player/group windows. (Also the con_version1 should hopefully no longer occasionally cut off part of the window)
- Update: The battlegrounds icon gem in the topright corner of the player window has been made slightly smaller.
- Fix: The storyline tab in the Journal window should no longer be displaying placeholder/incorrect text.


v1.10 - 2010.05.03
- Reverted the group and raid windows from the r1-r24,g1-g6 commandline casting. Your tells and chat text should be normal again.
v1.9 - 2010.05.02
- New: Player window options window now has a toggle for Smart Curing
- New: Group window options now has a toggle for "self" (F1) for normal and with-Pet versions.
- New: Hotbars now have a grab handle when hovering over them to more easily move them around/access the right-click options.
- Update: Switched both Group and Raid windows to use r1-r24/g1-g6 commandline casting. This opens more support for international players and maintains Battlegrounds functionality. (Affects both normal and with-Pets version of group window)
- Update: The Stat Bar has new stats added: PVP Crit Mit (goes live GU#56), Accuracy, Flurry, BlockMod, Spell Reuse, ZoneArea name, and Location.
- Update: Browser window has been overhauled to include 4 tabs. It is now equiped with a "Favorites" dropdown menu which can be edited from DrumsUI_browser_favorites.xml!
- Update: Hotbars' overlays will now auto-config themselves when loading into game. (Previuosly they waited for a mouse-over, which will still work in the event auto-config fails)
- Update: The journal window has been made ready for GU#56 and the Storylines feature.
- Update: The persona window's weapon stats width areas were increased to accommodate larger numbers. New Stats added: PVP Crit Mit (goes live GU#56), Flurry, and Spell Reuse (this is different than Ability Reuse).
- Fix: The checkbox on the Completed quest tab of the Journal should no longer over the Share quest button.
- Fix: The Market windows Advanced Search options pops up more to the left. Mousing over the sell tab causes this window to hide itself. Hopefully this change will prevent that from happening as much.
- Fix: The Seller information in the Market window now has a tooltip. If the seller text is too long to fit, just mouse over it to see the full location.
v1.8 - 2010.03.30
- New: You can now hide the quick cast buttons for the Group/Raid window via the settings window
- New: Group member's F2-F6 text now serves as a /follow button for each member
- Update: Raid window overhauled to be smaller in overall size. This change was based off the decrease in size to the default UI raid window. Quick buttons decreased in size by only 2 pixels. HP bars should be slightly thicker now as well.
- Update: Raid window's overall "background" was transformed into 4 backgrounds for each raid group. The window settings opacity still controls this change. It mainly was aimed at removing the extra "black space" around the window.
- Update: Group member's quick cast buttons trimmed down a bit, making more space to click on group members with the mouse
- Fix: Broker window's "Take Coin" button and Sell tab's header sort buttons are now fully clickable
- Fix: The curse icon on "yourself" in the group window is now displaying the proper graphic
- Fix: Clicking the "Enter" key while hovering the group window should no longer trigger one of the quick cast buttons
- Fix: Maintained window icon's "spell amount" slightly increased in width to accomodate larger numbers (wards, etc)
- Fix: Stat bar had several elements widths fixed as noted by several users' feedback
v1.7 - 2010.03.15
- New: Group window now includes "yourself" as the first group member (F1). Quick Casts/Cures apply the same as they do to the rest of the party.
- New: Edit window for quick cast/cures now has "Default" button which can be used to revert to the default DrumsUI settings for that button
- New: Group/Raid Settings windows have a few more options to choose from including:

• Show tooltips on Quick Cast/Cure buttons
• Display cure button placeholders (transparent icons)
• Use smart curing (only casts when a debuff counter is found) [This used to be default to always on, now it's a choice]
• The new options will save between sessions, and per-character like the other options do.

- Update: The T9 potions "Focused 'x' Remedy" are now included in the default Potion options for the player window. (thanks to foozlesprite and TalTal)
