Dressing Room Bug
 

Hey Zonx. First of all, Excellent UI. Ive been using it for a Loooooooong time and literally wouldnt play without it. thank you for all your hard work and the time youve put into making the game better for the rest of us.

one small bug with 9.0 I and my ladyfriend both caught was that the reset and clear buttons on the dressing room window doesnt work. Nothing that impairs functionality in a major way but wanted to bring it to your attention.

Thanks Again for the best UI out there Man.

Collection window
 

Hi

My collection window is gone or acualy the collection tab is gone. it worked fine in 8.8 and when i installed 9.0 it was gone.

When i examin a collectable item journal window opens as it should but no collection window.

Is there a .xml that i can use to get the collection tab back ?

Thanks for a good UI :nana:

two bugs I have found so far. When I have my browser open BUT minimized all my keys cease to function unless I deliberately mouse my cursor into a field where I can type. Then I just press. say "M" for example and all works again till I minimized the browser again. Second bug I have found is when I go to choose a crafting vocation the profession screen pops up I select say Tailor and a new window pops but with Dev type debug info. But I just did a /loadui and went back to default to get my vocation set.


Great UI still and glad you have kept up the fantastic job Kudos!!!

Whogga : Collection Quest Window
 

Well - I do not have a fix, but I might have a workaround.

When I saw your post, I promptly went into EQII and took a real look (would you believe, I had not had a reason to pay attention to that tab recently?).

I had the same thing as you: Three tabs appearing, Active, Group, Completed, but no Collection.

Now: I loaded eq2ui_journals_quest.xml into the EQII Builder XML program to see if I could spot something. In that program, all four tabs appear!

So far, I do not know what is causing this to happen, however, by accident, I got my Collection tab back. What I did was re-arrange the order in which the tabs appear. Now I have Active, Completed, Collection. I don't yet know about Group - I would think it should not appear until you are actually in a group and I have been running solo/crafting so far.

OK:

(1) Open equ2ui_journals_quest.xml in a suitable editor (like Notepad) - something that will preserve the CTRL chars at the end of each line.
(2) Look at lines 28-33. That is a small internal XML structure that defines what tabs exist.
(3) In the official Fetish file, there are four lines of code, one for each tab, which appear in the file in the order: Active, Collection, Completed, Group.
These are lines 29, 30, 31, 32.
(4) Interchange lines 30 and 31, so the order is: Active, Completed, Collection, Group

Save the file and see if that helps.

I don't know why it should, but (for me) it gave me my Collection tab back.

PARANOID NOTE: If that did not work, then (using your modified file with the new order of the tabs), edit the Collection tab line (which should be line 31):
(a) Delete the phrase: localtext="Collection"
(b) Change 'Target' to 'target'
(c) Change 'Text' to 'text'
Ie., make that line look identical to the other three, so there is just Name=, target=, and text= phrases.

Again, I don't know why that should make a difference. I thought 'text' and 'Text' were the same. But: I have my Collection tab, and you do not, so here is something to try.

MoonDeville: Browser and DEVL text
 

Browser:
The issue with the browser 'stealing' the input focus is, I believe, not new to Fetishnightfall 9.0. It has been there for some time.

My 'solution' is to click on an empty hotbar slot, to get the focus away from the browser.


DEVL:
That sounds like a missing or old file.

Zone Reuse window
 

When I go to Persona/Details, then try to see my zone reuse timers I get the "MainHUD ZoneReuse window is not compatible with the current client..." message. Have not seen other reports of this, so it may well be something in MY UI folder. I'll extract the version 9.0 zip into a seperate folder and do a comparison of files to see if I notice a problem there and will edit this post if I find the problem/solution.

EDIT: Well, I did not find the problem, but I did fix the issue. Used the tried and true method of completely deleting everything to do with a custom UI and installing absolutely fresh. Everything appears to be working now.

Zone Reuse and Mail
 

I also noticed that the zone reuse timer window does not work, as well as the in game mail window any suggestions? Should I delete the ui folder completely and install fetish nightfall 9.0 again?

Mailbox won't come up
 

Hi there,

Love this UI and this is the first ever bug I've had to report with it but I think with the patch today they broke something in V. 9.0. I can not open my mailbox. I get a message that says my current UI is not campatible... blah... blah... and it worked before the patch with 9.0 installed. Thanks in advance for any solution that doesn't involve loading the default UI!

OSOT

The mail bug is an annoyance. I saw that ProfitRebornUI has it fixed, so I expect Zonx will tackle this sometime soon. It was a stealth job adding a "Spam" tab to your mailbox, I believe.

Mail Window Bug
 

Until Zonx releases a patch, simply:
Delete eq2ui_mainhud_mail.xml

That will cause the client to pick up the default file, give you the default mail window, and allow you to keep processing your email.

Re-installing Fetish will not fix the problem - SOE slipped in a new eq2ui_mainhud_mail.xml file on 8/16 (or so). They added a new tab, where SPAM email will be sent. And they added a 'version=2.0' field to one of the existing <Page> lines, so the client could detect when you were usiing an old xml file and give you the pop-up.

A patch has been added to the FetishNightfall Addon-Ons that corrects the mail issue. Its pending admin approval and should be available from the main download page soon.

I am not sure if this is part of Fetish or not, but in the character creation screen, the icons of the races are off. You have to click around some of the icons in order to select the race you want. Also, the pic for the arasai has half a barbarian, and half a dark elf in it.

Dressing room
 

The <reset> and <clear> buttons in the dressing room doesnt seem to work at all

Dune

Fonts and window sizes.
 

Some windows seem to cut the bottom part of the fonts off, as if the font is a slight bit taller than the space on the window, happens more frequently on <examine> windows than anything else.

Some buttons get cut in half, most noticeable if you examine a scrying stone, and the 3 buttons in the bottom right hand corner are cut.

Dune

the patch worked fine for my mailbox problem but im also haveing a problem with my browser window only showing as a black box with nothing in it....cant open it by clicking on a quest i have to hit the search button in the top rt corner of the quest window to bring it up.

also...the only real addon i us is goldi,s start button.

/lfg
 

Love the UI Zonk. I am have trouble with my /lfg window. When I type /lfg I get a black window with some icon's on it, can't see frame to close the window or get my name up to Lfg window. I am sure it's on my end, but if you could point me in the right direction I would for ever be in your debt.
Thank You for all your hard work!!

Mort

Make sure that you have the following line in the EQ2/UI/Fetish eq2ui_mainhud.xml file:

<include>eq2ui_mainhud_lfg.xml</include>

Tradeskill selection
 

Very nice UI! Simple and clean, and very handy for those of us with smaller resolution displays. Thank you!

One bug I found in leveling my crafter to 20 was that when you go to select your crafting subclass, it brings up a window with three debugging selections in it, instead of highlighting the one you clicked on. Easily worked around by switching to the standard UI long enough to pick your class.

A forum search found a similar bug for the level 10 class selection, but I believe I was level 12 when I installed this, so it may or may not be the same bug.

lvl 10 and 20 tradeskill subclass selection window
 

its the eq2ui_popup_select.xml that causes problems when you try to pick a subclass profession at tradeskill levels 10 and 20.. so if you remove or rename that file it will load the default eq2 window and you can choose professions with no problem. i havent looked to see what else it effects if anything tho

Today I experienced a problem with the chat window. When I would hit enter to get the cursor to appear in the little box, it would be all squished up into the text that was already in the box, so it looked like I was typing the new line over the old one. When I clicked in the line to type, then I could actually see what I was typing clearly. It was as if that entry box for text appeared when I did that and not when I just hit -enter-.

Also, I lagged out fairly hardcore after this problem happened and finally ended up just loading up the standard UI. I"m not sure if they did a tiny patch that broke things or what. I was loving using your UI though. So clean compared to the normal UI.

i cant play lon as the bottom half has my hotbars ect ontop of a black background , so i cant plan legends of norrath, please fix soon and great ui other than that annoyoing bug :)

my eq2 button is gone. I tried hitting alt ~ (tilde) as i was told that would bring it back, but it is not working. Is there something different I need to do using this UI?

tympyst :
(1) In one of the Options windows, you can set the hot-keys used to toggle most of the UI windows. Go there and see what your Start Button is set to.
(2) You can use /show_window MainHud.StartButton to make it appear.
(3) You can use /show_window Inventory.Locator to bring up a window to show the location of many usefull UI windows. The Start Button might be on the selectable list.

miliskel :
I am not in the LoN Beta, but I can bring up the window and go through the tutorial. Check your eq2ui_mainhud.xml file, and see if you have include lines for the files eq2ui_mainhud_tcg.xml and eq2ui_mainhud_tcgdialog.xml. Black (or sometimes white) backgrounds usually mean missing xml or dds files.

Ayalin :
R-click on your chat window and bring up its options window. This 'feature' can be turned on/off via selecting one of the 'No Frames/Frames/Frame and Border' (I dont remember the exact wording). If this does NOT work, then you need to replace your eq2ui_mainhud_mainchat.xml file with one of the others supplied in the Fetish zip file. I use the one called _simple_eq2ui_mainhud_mainchat.xml. Just rename the _simple_eq2ui_mainhud_mainchat.xml file to eq2ui_mainhud_mainchat.xml. I think what you are seeing is called 'input stealthing'. And it IS a feature.

I've uploaded a patch for LoN for Fetish Nightfall. I'll post a link as soon as it's approved, but it'll show up under the "Patches and Add-Ons" section when looking at FN 9.0

EDIT: Link: http://www.eq2interface.com/download...rathPatch.html

just thought i would give you a heads up on a possible lu38 problem.....i tried to get onto test pvp to check out the new changes and the game crashes at the load up screen every time. had to remove my fetish folder before it would let me log in.

I've gotten a couple reports that the Test server is now requiring some stuff I intentionally removed from the login scene slideshow. If you play on Test, you may need to trash eq2ui_loginscene.xml to avoid crashing at login. This may result in some odd screen sizing durring login since Fetish uses a larger default size.

I am getting a error that it can not load a file from the test directory (which I do not have) when I am trying to play on a normal server. the error reads that it cannot find:

D:\test\eq2\game\client\src\NCS2.cpp (1868)

Same problem after Update 38
 

Yep, same problem here after update 38. Logging in to character select screen:

Default UI works fine.

But if I login straight to a character, Fetish is fine, except for the missing part of Inventory window from today's update. And obviously for that problem I can just rename eq2ui_inventory_inventory.xml and use the default Inventory window just fine for new additions.

same issue here

Same issue for me. The log directly in does work though.

Tried removing the Log in file and still got the same error.

Until Zonx has time to push an update simple Rename or Delete the eq2ui_newcharscene2.xml file from the Fetish Directory. You may experience odd positioning of the Character Select / Create screens until an update comes but at least they won't crash the game and they are functional.

The other work around of course is to log directly into a specific character, as mentioned above.

I was getting the same problem as some of the other recent posters with crashing on char login, removing the above file fixed it for now. Seems to be a good work around.

my notes
 

cant minimize legend of norath

cant invite to a challenge in legend of norath with the start window of lon

cant use items from hotbars

cant login to the charblabla

cant see the inventory for the new stuff

----------

i know how to fix that, just my notes for zonx

Bug caused by September 12 EQ2 update
 

First of all, thank you for creating fetish UI. I truly love this UI.

Here is the exact error and I have confirmed that it is definatly the Fetish UI causing this error. I will explain how I did that.

----------------------------------------------------------------
Fatal Error

EverQuest II has detected an unrecoverable error and must shutdown.

<verify> D:\test\eq2\game\client\src\NCS2.cpp (1868):
Missing required window: NCS2Slideshow

----------------------------------------------------------------

To be as specific as possable there is the exact error...

Here is how I verified this error being caused by Fetish UI:

First I ran full scan from EQ2, error still showed.

Next I checked SOE website for the bug and was unable to find it so I called SOE tech support.

SOE sent me an email telling me which files to delete and let everquest re-download in patcher.

After doing that I still got the error so I fowarded to SOE my DXDiag, MSinfo32, and some other importiant files in the Everquest2 directory.
They got back to me to tell me it was a problem caused by running a custom UI.

At first I thought they we're just cheesing out and blaming someone else but when I deleted the fetishnightfall folder from my UI folder, EQ2 magically loaded up correctly and I was able to play again... but without Fetish Nightfall UI :( :( ;(

I said to myself, this looks pathetic! I need to get Fetish back on here. Now I went and got Fetish Nightfall 9.0 again even though thats what I already had and replaced it. Ran EQ2 Map Updater and the error is back. Now I'm deleting Fetish again.

Well I hope someone better then me at this can help fix this problem. Wish I had Fetish working!!

Yeah I quoted all of it. Now read just a few post above yours. Delete eq2ui_newcharscene2.xml and it will work fine. Its a single file. And btw not just fetish does this but a few others have done it.

Thanks!! That fixed it for me!!

Window missing
 

Hi
When this weeks upgrade poped i cant start the game because of a missing window. Window name is NC52Slideshow. I thought that Nightfall 9.1 should fix that but it didnt, can anyone who knows theese things help me with this prob?

I moved the file eq2ui_newcharscene2.xml away from fetich directory and still i cant enter game because of same error message.

Camp to CS Crashes - No Appearance tab
 

EQ2 crashes when I go to Character Select.

The new Appearance tab is non-existent.

By loading in the Default UI (Ugh!!! What a disaster!! Reminds me of EQ1) I was able to use the appearance tab there. When coming back I usually have to /Load_uisettings to get my hot bars back. Also the merchant window then complains that my bags are overloaded. Exiting the game and coming back in solves that.

When I set the Sound with the EQII tab it is forgotten when I exit the game and come back in.

I don't know what I would do if Fetish Nightfall were to stop working!

I did get the Character Select to work by removing eq2ui_newcharscene2.xml to a temporary storage, but the CS screen is bad. It is out of alignment.

Mosiah of Najena (Also Loqutis, Socket, Raiker and others)

If you're still crashing at character select you have not installed 9.1 properly. This update includes eq2ui_newcharscene2.xml dated 9/14/2007.
