Experience Bar GU57

**TalTal** · #1 08-21-2010, 10:55 AM

Here is the profit experience bar that has been modified so that when you right click and choose minimize it includes the Profit start button (night vision,pet hide, etc.) and looks identical to current when in maximized mode. It will be the new default xp bar and should be on the updater in the near future.

Before we start making new UI pieces default, can we please get pictures posted to this forum, to confirm that most of us like the new version

I fior one am having no problems with the current experience bar, and start button, and do not really want it changed from what it has been for years.

As I said in anoher post, the only UI piece I would like to see changed is the character screen, because it is too big.

Thanks

You are not having issues but more than a few are. The changed version looks no different unless you set it to.

How do I get rid of the other info center? And thanks for all the updates that you have done.

diihia · #5 08-22-2010, 12:24 PM

Well I thought I had found a fix...but I didn't....all my change did was move it to the default location....I would like to also get rid of the old button since I will just use the one off the xp bar....

Nikar · #6 08-22-2010, 12:36 PM

And if we can get rid of old one do we need to remove some settings for locating in the character xml for the old one? Like sound and volume slidebars

Ravenlook · #7 08-22-2010, 04:21 PM

looks like there is more changes in this file, it's used to be that u can chose what stat will apear on the upper panel, basicly u can either show the 1 with run speed or the 1 with XP progress and then when u hovered over it, it showed the other 1, now it shows the xp progress and u can't set it tho show the other 1, would like the fixed since i used to have the 1 with run speed showen and the xp progress visble on mouse hover, hope u can get it done

P.S. tnx 4 all the hard work 4 keep this UI up to date

There is also a problem with the non-minimized version of the XP bar, I ONLY shows Adventure XP, when you select to display AA or Crafting XP in the large numbers, it does not switch.

It works correctly in the minimized version.

Can we get the non-minimized version fixed please. It was working fine before the changes for the EQ2 button in the XP bar.

I hope this can be fixed quickly.

Click on the percentage number itself, it changed the different xp options for me: AA, Tradeskill, Adventure

gjsi · #10 08-22-2010, 04:59 PM

Thanks, never tried that before, always right clicked and selected.

I cleaned a bit of discussion out of this thread to keep it on topic and productive. The two people involved in their little personality clash (along with some unlucky wording on both sides) will know who they are.

Let me just say that if a modder decides to make their work public and even discuss it here on the forums, of course they are always interested in constructive feedback. Naturally, whoever is doing the work on a mod eventually decides themselves what exactly to invest their free time on. In my experience that person will be quite capable of evaluating feedback and taking a decision themselves, and Silat does not appear to be an exception.

Yes, thank you for all the hard work!

I, too, however, want to see the Run Speed and Health/Power regen instead of the xp / tradeskill etc.

Alarick · #13 08-23-2010, 11:30 AM

Ditto, I'd love to be able to have an option of having the run speed visible all the time and the other be the mouseover.
Or just a click to switch rather than the mouseover.

Has this been addressed yet?

gjsi · #15 08-23-2010, 04:33 PM

I prefer to have the XP show, because this includes number of guildmates logged on. I don't have any need to see runspeed, regen, status and weight all the time, but I do like to know how many guildmates are on at a glance.

Please, if this is going to be changed, can we have some kind of option to choose, rather then a forced change from the current way it works.

Thank You

p.s. Forgot to add, I use the Maximized version if it makes a difference

If your character is already maxed out, the info is not really usefull.

Just to make sure this does not go unnoticed

UI Modders can now disable the snapping behavior of the XP bar by setting the “EnableSnapping” property to false.

**TalTal** · #20 08-24-2010, 10:11 AM

I saw it

Already added it, just waiting for server to come up so I can test and will post it right after.

XP Bar Updated:

Minimized view shows start button controls.
Maximized looks as before.

Changes:
Can now use the right click select experience type option.
Window settings once again determine top stats view ( run or xp )
Does not snap to top and bottom anymore.
Frame and Title bar set to None defaults to Xp Stat View with no Hover.
Frame and Title bar set to Frame defaults to Run Stat View with no Hover.
Frame and Title bar set to Both defaults to Xp Stat View with Hover.

Was bugged. Updated version Below.

Mystara0001 · #22 08-24-2010, 11:46 AM

I love this fix!

Question: The Updater notes said that the old Start Button could be hidden. How do I do this without having an invisible window floating around my screen?

Thanks for the options. Works great

diihia · #24 08-24-2010, 01:10 PM

Hmm...the new xp bar is not working for me. It is now only showing the xp bar at the top and will not show the run speed even on hover over. Also right clicking is not working either....

OK...I got it to show the run speed after all...it seems that I had my frame and titlebar opacity all the way down which was only allowing it to show the xp bar, so once I put the normal and mouseover opacity to max it worked (is that intended?)....however the right clicking option to change experience types still is not working for me...am I still not doing something I need to do? Of course clicking on the xp works to change it still.....

Oh and the night vision on the xp bar start button is still acting funny....it only highlights a few objects vs lighting up the whole area....the regular start button night vision works correctly....so for now (since I use that button a lot) I am still using the regular startbutton.....

The frame being visible is intended. The nightvision issues you are having I have no clue about. Mine works fine from either location on 3 different characters and 2 different pc's.

The right click ability was not working. The attached file is working for real this time. Sorry about the hassle. Goes to show you should test all functionality after making any change.
