ProfitUI and Update Sept 23 2009
 

Passing along what I have seen I do not know if this works patching as I post. http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/p...opic_id=459229

The new update breaks ProfitUI, well sorta. Due to changes in the quest journal to add a new feature (achievement tracking ability) using ProfitUI will cause your EQ2 client to crash. After working with it on the test server and doing a little research here is a simple walk around till someone issues a fix.

1. Go to your ProfitUI folder (<your EQ2 main folder\UI\ProfitUI
2. Delete the files eq2ui_journals.xml and eq2ui_journals_quest.xml and leave the active file alone
3. Log into EQ2 and enjoy

These does elimate the ability to click on the Wiki, Zam links to quests in the quest journal window but you will still have the ability using the active quest tracking window.

Hope this helps

thank you again gm9
 

best thread yet rothgar tempting gm9 but otherissues and possible work arounds listed in this thread http://www.eq2interface.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=13258

The update you can download with the new windows doesnt show the truimph progress and what you have to do to get them... it just shows a blank screen in that window why I went with the deleting the files way.

Also delete this file eq2i_mainhud_achievments.xml

awesome thanks for that, i had the same problem with viewing my aas etc

Does this mean there is no support to update Profit for the new GU?

check out the auto updater, it seems to have the fixes in it.

If only the auto updater worked on Vista Ultimate 64 (see my thread still waiting for a reply).

Unfortunately, even though I can see my Achievement amounts, I cannot see what I need to do to accomplish them.

screen blacking out
 

been having an issue since update with the screen blacking out when in lower settings (performance and raid) works great in quality have done the above erasing of files and still nothing.

That is why I wrote the walkthrough you see linked by the OP... if you use the updater it downloads a fix and you can see the achievement window etc but you cant see what needs to be done to get them..

That is why I said to delete the journal files and let it load the content from them from the default UI. Worked for us on test :)

You rock!!! Thanks for fixing the UI so fast :)

Ya, Profit :nana:

Saying profit isn't being updated is totally wrong. gm9 stopped and Chrislau picked it up. Hes done a great job a matter of fact the auto updater updated for todays patch the files. Only need to delete the achievments file until Chrislau gets an update. As to why start menu is all unaligned is beyond me cuz that file don't exist in profit folder.

Bottom bar does have an issue in the atk field but sure that will get fixed as well.

The inspect window is not currently working after profit update. Any chance for a fix?

Thanks for the gratitude but I did not really fix Profit, just stumbled upon the way to make it work with the update.

As for the inspect window there are a few inspect windows or windows I call inspect windows, if you describe it in more detail I can look at it, have enough xml experience to be dangerous :-P, and see what I can do.

hoping to help others and then my problem
 

so upon updating my profit i came across that my stuff was not updating to the right folder you should make sure that you are pathing to Cdrive/programfiles/sony/everquest II and not C/programfiles/sony online entertainment/installedgames/everquest II. your ui will not update. so i got my journal working but my Character Development & Acheivment window is not working right. i have the Character Development part but the 3 trees i can not see them. all i see is a green cricle with a arm in it with 8 points in all my trees other then that there is no trees there says i have the aas spent but cant see the trees

I have the exact same issues as Ansmith865.

Same exact problem

same problem here!

Deleted the files I listed above in the original walkthrough I posted to SOE forums... but read the actual SOE post as I edited it adding an additional file.. then log into game.. this should fix the AA problem and achievement problem guys

another quirk is that there is an achievement privacy option that is supposed to be on the persona/options tab that isnt in the update for profit yet.

Same problem as howtor65 :(

Countdown Timers
 

notices that with the latest update the countdown timers on the spell/combat art re-use are no longer appearing. even after using the latest update

I am reading the different things not working or having issues, I will look into fixing them tomorrow, keep in mind I am not a ProfitUI developer and my xml skills can never come close to the skills of GM9 and others who have fixed updates since GM9's departure but I will do what I can to see what I can get working and will post a link to an update file.

cool. However there are files on the auto updater so not sure why people not using that. I'm sure Chris will get to these over next couple days as he did take over the project to the best of my knowledge.
