Performance Buttons

[acidm0on]

First off, I dont generally use complete mod packages because I often find them clunky and full of useless fluff - like when you buy a new computer and it comes with bloatware. I have to say though, I've been digging your UI alot - thanks!

I just recently started playing again after a loong hiatus so I'm a little out of the loop on mods, etc - even after trying to do some research.

I have found a few mods that allow custom performance profiles in game - kosmos, laff's, one that requires fetish etc. The first two I cant seem to get working, the last requires installing the fetish UI, and I'd rather stay with drums.

Does anyone know of a working UI mod that has the on the fly performance buttons that plays nice with Drums?

Thanks in advance!

I haven't really put any time at all into Performance "Quick swap buttons" mostly because I find it fairly easy to just open the options window and load a preset that way. The 2 buttons Load and Save in the options window are for just this (and not specific the Keyboard layout dropdown which resides very close to the buttons; it's misleading).

Basically setup a performance you like and save it, and do any other optional ones if needed...
Now, I fully understand the usefulness of pre-set performance layouts, but I personally hardly ever change my settings, and find it to be very pc-specific stuff! So... I've never put the time into coming up with any sort of presets to share.

I don't know of any standalone mods offhand, but I'm sure someone could make one pretty easily.


PS. Welcome back to the game! Glad you like the UI.

Thanks for the quick reply and warm welcome~!

I feel like a tard - especially since I'm not technically an EQ2 noob! As you pretty much guessed;

"The 2 buttons Load and Save in the options window are for just this (and not specific the Keyboard layout dropdown which resides very close to the buttons; it's misleading)."

Even though it makes way more sense for Load and Save to be associated with profile options, for some reason all these years in the back of my mind I always associated that with the Keyboard layout dropdown lol.

I'm not lazy and this is pretty much all I need - thanks a ton! Helps when you're running more then one instance of the game on one box

Agreed. It is a very misleading location of those buttons. I don't have any real reason to modify the options window, otherwise I'd probably move them a bit, or add a label
