Just a reminder to the community anyone who has any pointers please speak up.

I can't add functionality to the UI I am only doing the graphics, Draco is the xml guy.

I do like several items from other Ui's such as

TyeJae Heroic Opportunity Wheel
http://www.eq2interface.com/download...fo.php?id=3554
Gradient Chat
http://www.eq2interface.com/download...fo.php?id=3854
[OCD-Adv] Horizontal Journal with Heritage and Writs!
http://www.eq2interface.com/download...fo.php?id=3691
EQ2MAP Project
http://www.eq2interface.com/download...fo.php?id=3430
FetishTradeskills v4.4
http://www.eq2interface.com/download...fo.php?id=3380
XUINIX Persona
http://www.eq2interface.com/download...fo.php?id=3582
[OCD-Adv] Startbutton for ALL Characters
http://www.eq2interface.com/download...fo.php?id=3776
[OCD-Adv] 3-Way Inventory with Stats
http://www.eq2interface.com/download...php?s=&id=3708

I have not asked permission yet for the use of these but I think these are the best at what they do for each window I would not even try to make them better Props to the makers of each.
I will post asking to use them in my mod but i will wait till mine comes closer to a reality as trying to fit additional mods inside mine will add a whole lot to support.

Draco will also have to look at them to see if he can fit them in or if he will have to do them himself.

More to come....

Here is the new background icons for the inventory just drop these into the images folder and allow it to overwrite. the size and locations are all correct.

The icon in the upper right corner can be used for food or drink , I made seperate icons for each but didnt know which one you needed.
If you can use the ones i put in there use them first.
Only use the one in the upper right if you have to.

Also in case you didnt get it here is the circle backpack icon.
Draco Ill have more later let me know what you need next.

Knowledge window for ya Draco. pinned the buttons on the right one didnt know which way you wanted it. Anyway the normal window will look like the one on the right it's full of empty slots. The icons in this file are only for this window, they wont fit other windows.

The tan insets are there at all times, the other icons sit inside those.

Nah forget the first ones use the ones I just posted they look much nicer.
The others may match but are too dark.
The new ones look much nicer.

How are you going to be able to get around the default equip_back icons showing up? I have tried using different icons as well for the charm slots, but everytime I reload the UI, the default background shows no matter what. I even keep the custom equip_back.dds named the same as the default and placed in my custom directory, but somehow, the background seems to be pushed from the server side, overrides and changes any attempt I do to change it's default graphic.

can't you just remove the default icon backgrounds and just use the custom images as just images behind the item icon?... If that makes sense...

I have done this as per my post, replaced the default .dds with my custom .dds HOWEVER, the game seems to still default (forced) to the .dds supplied by SOE.

I have not tested it yet, so I am not sure, and I cannot confirm that.

I don't know what your doing wrong but dropping the one i made into my custom UI does work I see the background icons just fine. I see them fine in the builder as well. These are my icons overlayed on top of the default graphics. I'll check them again but I am sure they work.

yours works even when you unequip/re-equip? Please post your .xml if you can so I can see where I am going wrong.

Weird are you trying to replace an item icon or the background icon thats in the inventory window ? I can use the default .xml and graphic files, then make a custom UI out of it, and the only file I replace is the equip_back.dds
make sure the path is correct.

C:/Program Files/Sony/EverQuest II/UI/CustomUI/images/equip_back.dds

Also these will only show up when there is nothing in the slot the game uses the actual item icon when there is something in the slot.

Like I said, for some reason, the server or hardcode prevents any use of a custom .dds file for equip backgrounds. I was trying to use a custom .dds for my mainhud.inventory.xml that shows a different graphic for the two charm slots. But again, SOE defaults always seem to so show up.

I can get my custom graphics to show up, I have found out that the yellow on that background is read as a transparency so Ill have to retexture them . should only take me about an hr. Its causing some bleeding I can fix that though.
Still trying to see why yours wont work. Let me check a few things if it wont work I will post my xmls.

OK I always have a backup of all my files there has been a change somewhere not sure when. But now even the default window will NOT show the slots in the builder. Not sure if this is caused by the builder itself but more likely a patch of somekind from SOE I looked on the boards and didnt see anything affecting this window so ... I'll keep checking but using a custom xml setup for the inv window will work.

http://www.eq2interface.com/download...fo.php?id=4110
It works just fine. But my graphics need redone.

Can't work on them right now but soon as I get them done I'll post them.
Seems my frames is like 1x1 px off each side allowing the background to show a transparency I will have this fixed asap.

I am almost done with the inventory, I had to put everything together like fetish widgets, but we still need to test and make a few adjustments.
