Uninstall old version before installing new...

Post issues/concerns here...

Thanks,

P.S. You will notice the Persona Window has become a little blan.
That's because the enhancments that Sony has applied are currently hidden untill they release them at patch day.

My EQ button/bar area is short...it is chopped off at the "stop drink" button and the slide bar beneath it says "Co" . Haven't found a way to expand it - unlocked the window but couldn't make it any wider.
Really like the dragon Knowledge Book. Would be nice if it had a toggle switch located on the book itself.
Nothing else noted.
Thank you for all the work you do on this UI. I think I have almost everyone in my guild using it and everyone loves it. Thank you.

Okay, got the EQ Button/Bar to expand. I had to give the window a frame and then was able to grab the corner and expand the window.

Again, Great UI.

I would Like to see the installer Wider to be rid of the scroll bars for the install information. Silly, but one of those anal things. I will update later on this post but I wanted to log this now so I don't forget.

I am now Playing and testing the new ui so I figured I would Start a log of good items and items that may not function as theyu should.

1) 5:38 pm 1280 X 1024 Set to High Qulity. Dragon Book is Awesome.

2) Spell Effects window. I would Like to see it in a horizontal list much like the Emote list oh and re-sizable left and right. I won’t mentions the resize thing again as you already know how I feel about that.

3)Help window is awesome. Every thing worked well. The www was also a nice feature that is working.

Yeah, only problem with making a resizable window larger is at first load its a bit cutoff

The dragon book has a toggle but is "hidden/not very noticable" (Click the Dragon head to close the book).
I'm not the original author and haven't had time to refine it yet but will.

Following in standard Sony update style...

There's an update to the update.

Hopefully the issues list won't follow Sony's example and grow.

I'm replacing beta 4.7.0 with version 4.7.1 now.
This is an update to the 4.7.0 beta as Sony has applied LU13 to the test servers.
The "beta" is a fully working install that should actually be better than 4.6 in my oppinion. Just be sure to uninstall any earlier versions.
Also note: My installer used to NOT overwrite existing XML for fear of overwriting anything a user may have added as an additional mod.
I have since changed the installer to overwrite all files except the "notes1-4" so be sure to backup any 3rd party mods you may wish to use with the ThorUI.

I cannot seem to get the installer to work....each time I try it, it tells me it failed to read setup engine. I have no idea how to fix the problem. Please let me know what to do.

Greetings!

I just installed 4.7.1 beta version. Excellent UI!

As I was resetting my window and playing with the buttons I couldnt locate where the 'edit Biography' screen is located or where to change player title and prefix.

Keep up the great work!

Good eyes!
The persona window is going through a major Sony revamp soon and in order to prepare for that I've modded the persona window based on those up and coming changes.
The Biography screen along with a nifty faction screen will be available via the "now hidden" tabs at the top of the page.

To get a preview, follow the instructions on setting up to login to the test server. "Basically copy the EverQuest II directory to the folder within called "testserver" then launch testeq2.exe.
You can make a character on the test server even if your like me and used up all your 10 character slots

You can then test out the very cool additions that Sony is working on.
For example: find a willing subject and type /duel in game

To finish my long winded reply, the Biography page will be unavailable until Sony releases LU13.
If this is an issue, you may always just delete or rename "eq2ui_mainhud_persona.xml" to "eq2ui_mainhud_persona.xml.old" until they release LU13
