Question please:

When you click on your experience, it changes from adventure to tradeskill, but there is one more experience thing.

What is that for?

Thanks,
-Noalei of Steamfont

Been reading ALL posts, and tryed some different things that people said, but it still wont work, as for using your clock and start button, I'm not using pieces from another UI (I'm not to good at mixing) so I am using everything you made..

Still love it, but would like to know what I maybe have'nt tryed to get thoose icons to work, or to remove them, and get name/timers on the spells..

Thnx

Very nice UI, b4 i've always put together my own and it became a nuisance keeping it update...none of that now.
Only one little thing...Can u put the little pointers back on the Persona XP bars, so u can see roughly where your vitality will take u, I think there's one on the Inventory but to small to understand.

Sorry couldnt figure out right place to post - I really like the UI but does anyone know how I can see my life bar while I am fighting?
Probably a Duh Question - But I can't figure it out.
I can target myself and see bars, but I cant see it when I am fighting.
I have tried everything. Cant change that little invisible bar with the Plus signs in the upper left when i mouse over it that says my name to frames there is no option for it when I go to window settings.
and The Opac doesnt seem to help. not a computer wiz.
Would really appreciate the assist. Thank you for your patience- Oh and the two Target / Implied target things on the top don't seem to do anything except loc/ direction. I figure I'm doing something wrong.

Elslight, if you aren't using the included .ini files I suggest you start with extracting the one that most closely resembles your resolution, rename it to suit your character and server, and replace your existing one with the included one in your main EQ2 directory. Most of the windows in this UI should be visible to you if you do this.

Your personal health and power bars are in the experience window. If you can't see that window, alt X shows and hides it. If you ca't see the whole window, unlock it and stretch it horizontally. You cannot click on these bars to target yourself, but clicking on yourself in the group window works, and also the personal effects window, which is really just the player window modified.

The window with the plus signs is the player window I mentioned. Downloading the latest version of this UI will restore the backdrop btw. Clicking this window targets yourself.

The latest version of this UI makes the compass window resizable. Also you will need to make sure you are using the "detailed" con system with the arrows and not the frames to see the target windows proper. This issue may have been explained in greater detail somewhere else in this thread. Also pressing alt T makes the target windows show and hide. Hope that helps.

Ah nice, I might have missed that line. I didn't upgrade my exp window on purpose though, as I like the little sword where it is.

P.S. the weight display on the exp window is still being cut off when the max is 4 digits, with smooth fonts on. Not sure if that was fixed in 16.b tho.

Slant · #**284** 09-04-2005, 01:56 PM

Please ensure you are running 1.6b

Please start by using the included 1280 or 1024 ini file.

Kagnar · #**286** 09-04-2005, 06:26 PM

Got a wierd error Profit....

The Experience numbers look really wierd in Smooth Fonts... Attached Image

Can't tell what the numbers after the decimal point should be....Just let me know what I need to do to fix it...

Excellent UI btw!

Hantu · #**287** 09-04-2005, 08:31 PM

looks like .2 to me... have you tryed not using smooth fonts? 90% of the problems with special fonts are caused by Smooth Fonts

Kagnar · #**288** 09-04-2005, 08:38 PM

yeah i tried it without smooth fonts.....but it just doesn't look that great....hence why i was going to try to see if i could get it to work with the smooth fonts

Vindicis · #**289** 09-04-2005, 09:38 PM

I have the same problem when using smooth fonts as well.

Wiking · #**290** 09-05-2005, 03:40 AM

I have the same problem, with fonts messing up in the XP area. And I dont use smooth fonts.

Profit · #**291** 09-05-2005, 04:51 AM

The revised Exp area is designed for the new version of the highspeed font I included in the last 16.b update.

Please replace all copies of this you have and reboot your pc's.

taco-man · #**292** 09-05-2005, 04:53 AM

just to clarify for anyone replacing the font they have in thier windows font directory, you have to delete the old version of the font you are replacing before you put in the new version (or it wont work)

Did that when I installed 1.6b

I love this ui with a couple of exceptions!

The target and implied target boxes. Top of the screen just isnt condusive to me seeing them, I much prefer them at the bottom of the screen. Now, I know you can move them, but you end up with the titles still at the top which looks messy, and moving them to the bottom just doesnt work, mainly because they are so huge. Smaller target boxes without the title bar on would be fab.

Also, I find the self box at top right also out of my normal vision area when fighting, by the time I realise Im nearly dead, its too late. Any chance of a self box like you get in the group box on all the time? I used the horizontal group part and that seems to put me in automatically at the left side, which is fab, except when I aint grouped when it aint there.

An unholy alliance between your UI and Laffs Lite one would be fab, his bottom your top, but I understand why that wont happen. Just the 2 target boxes smaller and moveable to the bottom and a similar sized self box at the bottom would be ace tho.

Good work on the theme too, looks lovely.

Kali · #**295** 09-05-2005, 11:34 AM

Having a problem with the compact horizontal group window not showing the 6th member in the group. And yes, I've tried resizing the window, etc. and I am using the current version of the UI.

Great UI, BTW.

I also did that and am still experiencing the same graphical glitch.

Until Sony give us the ability to see "smooth" fonts in the UIBuilder it's going to be hard for us to envisage how it looks without switching to the game each change we try.

The UI was never intended to be used with smooth fonts.

In-correct - just resize the compass window and the place holders disappear.
Edit: Next version you can turn the title bars off.

The problem with me keep changing stuff to suit individuals is that I start to loose what I set out to do.

I never intended to even release this UI, I've been using it since May but some urge made me post a screen shot.

Sorry, but small changes like you ask can easily be done by playing with the UIBuilder. I must stick to my original vision - it's already changed too much since releasing it.

Enob · #**299** 09-05-2005, 02:45 PM

Is there some sort of UI shell that is accessible in-game? Just wondering since there seem to be a lot of options to turn things off anf on that I am missing/dont know how to do.

thanks
