Would love to use EQ2Maps But.
It would be kinda cool to have a set of instructions for EQ2MAP this is what I get in to here Simple UI by Grindlethorn
-------------------------

Options
-------------------------
- There are a couple of alternative windows available - experience & mini-inv
- Open .\Everquest II\UI\Simple\
- To see your XP percentage: eq2ui_mainhud_experience[SHOW%].xml
- Without the XP percentage: eq2ui_mainhud_experience[HIDE%].xml
- 3x2 Mini-Inventory: eq2ui_mainhud_inventory[3X2].xml
- 6x1 Mini-Inventory: eq2ui_mainhud_inventory[6X1].xml
- Delete [...] from the desired option (eg to see your % XP delete [SHOW%])
- Ensure only 1x eq2ui_mainhud_experience.xml & 1x eq2ui_mainhud_inventory.xml
- If you run the game at 1280*1024 you're done, otherwise see below
Non-1280*1024 users
-------------------------
- Users of other resolutions will need to resize and position the background frame on their first use (appears as small black box with golden frame)
- Other than that it is custom placement of windows
Known Issues
-------------------------
- Full screen to window mode and back sometimes displaces the XP bar.
- Casting Bar has been known to disappear very briefly, though hasn't happened recently.
- Dragging money from Mini-Inv to Bank works, any other dragging to or from MI does not.

My issue is that I can not find any Instructions for installing EQ2maps. I would love to use all of this but I don't want to mess up my game. Line 6 above in red is a problem.
