This post pointed me in the right direction, thanks tknarr. I had seen the post before but didn't know what UiSettingsSpy was at the time. Excellent little program by the way. It can be a little overwhelming for novices, so I thought this walk through might help out a bit.
Step 1) While not running EQ2, download, extract, and run UiSettingsSpy from
here
Step 2) On the first tab, select the UI file that you want to fix (I.E. servername_gedron_eq2_uisettings.ini)
Step 3) Click on the "View Data" tab
Step 4) In the lower right area called "Modules and Windows" expand the "Inventory" tree and look for bag clones that are different than the others. In my case they were like "bag_clone_205_0" and "bag_clone_206_0". I had 3 of them to remove. For clarification -
the bag clones in bold with the higher numbers in the list below would be the ones that you want to find (exact names may vary I suppose)
- -Bag_clone_0_-3
- -Bag_clone_0_-4
- -Bag_clone_0_-5
- -Bag_clone_11_-3
- -Bag_clone_17_-1
- -Bag_clone_1_-3
- -Bag_clone_1_-4
- -Bag_clone_1_-5
- -Bag_clone_205_0
- -Bag_clone_206_0
- -Bag_clone_251_0
- -Bag_clone_2_-3
- -Bag_clone_2_-4
- -Bag_clone_2_0
- -Bag_clone_3_-3
- -Bag_clone_3_-4
- -Bag_clone_3_0
Step 5) Click on each of those clones to highlight them, then click on the "Delete" button right below the "Modules and Windows" area for each
"unusual" bag clone
[NOTE - some people have reported having success only after they deleted ALL Bag_Clone entries... it might be worth a shot if just removing these entries doesn't work for you]
Step 6) When they are gone, click on "Save" under the File menu in the upper left corner, then Close UiSettingsSpy.
Step 7) Load the game and test that it now saves things properly. If all is good then you can either go back in to UiSettingsSpy and modify all of the other character files, or you can use /load_uisettings within the game to copy the settings from your fixed profile... whichever you think will be better.
Good luck :P
