**Zonx** · #1 08-02-2007, 02:26 AM

Please do not post install problems or feature requests in this thread. They will most likely be deleted without reply.

If you notice a bug and wish to report it, please do the following...

1) Verify you are in fact running the latest version by opening eq2ui_skininfo.xml in Notepad and checking the version number against the number listed on the download page. If you're up-to-date, continue to step 2.

2) Look for an existing report of the same bug. If one exists with no other verification, feel free to post verifing the bug. If more than 2 ppl have reported the same bug, please don't post it again.

Following these simple steps will help me provide a better product to you faster

Hey Zonx. First of all, Excellent UI. Ive been using it for a Loooooooong time and literally wouldnt play without it. thank you for all your hard work and the time youve put into making the game better for the rest of us.

one small bug with 9.0 I and my ladyfriend both caught was that the reset and clear buttons on the dressing room window doesnt work. Nothing that impairs functionality in a major way but wanted to bring it to your attention.

Thanks Again for the best UI out there Man.

Hi

My collection window is gone or acualy the collection tab is gone. it worked fine in 8.8 and when i installed 9.0 it was gone.

When i examin a collectable item journal window opens as it should but no collection window.

Is there a .xml that i can use to get the collection tab back ?

Thanks for a good UI

two bugs I have found so far. When I have my browser open BUT minimized all my keys cease to function unless I deliberately mouse my cursor into a field where I can type. Then I just press. say "M" for example and all works again till I minimized the browser again. Second bug I have found is when I go to choose a crafting vocation the profession screen pops up I select say Tailor and a new window pops but with Dev type debug info. But I just did a /loadui and went back to default to get my vocation set.

Great UI still and glad you have kept up the fantastic job Kudos!!!

Well - I do not have a fix, but I might have a workaround.

When I saw your post, I promptly went into EQII and took a real look (would you believe, I had not had a reason to pay attention to that tab recently?).

I had the same thing as you: Three tabs appearing, Active, Group, Completed, but no Collection.

Now: I loaded eq2ui_journals_quest.xml into the EQII Builder XML program to see if I could spot something. In that program, all four tabs appear!

So far, I do not know what is causing this to happen, however, by accident, I got my Collection tab back. What I did was re-arrange the order in which the tabs appear. Now I have Active, Completed, Collection. I don't yet know about Group - I would think it should not appear until you are actually in a group and I have been running solo/crafting so far.

OK:

(1) Open equ2ui_journals_quest.xml in a suitable editor (like Notepad) - something that will preserve the CTRL chars at the end of each line.
(2) Look at lines 28-33. That is a small internal XML structure that defines what tabs exist.
(3) In the official Fetish file, there are four lines of code, one for each tab, which appear in the file in the order: Active, Collection, Completed, Group.
These are lines 29, 30, 31, 32.
(4) Interchange lines 30 and 31, so the order is: Active, Completed, Collection, Group

Save the file and see if that helps.

I don't know why it should, but (for me) it gave me my Collection tab back.

PARANOID NOTE: If that did not work, then (using your modified file with the new order of the tabs), edit the Collection tab line (which should be line 31):
(a) Delete the phrase: localtext="Collection"
(b) Change 'Target' to 'target'
(c) Change 'Text' to 'text'
Ie., make that line look identical to the other three, so there is just Name=, target=, and text= phrases.

Again, I don't know why that should make a difference. I thought 'text' and 'Text' were the same. But: I have my Collection tab, and you do not, so here is something to try.

Faoj · #6 08-08-2007, 09:51 AM

Browser:
The issue with the browser 'stealing' the input focus is, I believe, not new to Fetishnightfall 9.0. It has been there for some time.

My 'solution' is to click on an empty hotbar slot, to get the focus away from the browser.

DEVL:
That sounds like a missing or old file.

When I go to Persona/Details, then try to see my zone reuse timers I get the "MainHUD ZoneReuse window is not compatible with the current client..." message. Have not seen other reports of this, so it may well be something in MY UI folder. I'll extract the version 9.0 zip into a seperate folder and do a comparison of files to see if I notice a problem there and will edit this post if I find the problem/solution.

EDIT: Well, I did not find the problem, but I did fix the issue. Used the tried and true method of completely deleting everything to do with a custom UI and installing absolutely fresh. Everything appears to be working now.

knighthawk1971 · #8 08-16-2007, 02:44 PM

I also noticed that the zone reuse timer window does not work, as well as the in game mail window any suggestions? Should I delete the ui folder completely and install fetish nightfall 9.0 again?

osot · #9 08-16-2007, 03:22 PM

Hi there,

Love this UI and this is the first ever bug I've had to report with it but I think with the patch today they broke something in V. 9.0. I can not open my mailbox. I get a message that says my current UI is not campatible... blah... blah... and it worked before the patch with 9.0 installed. Thanks in advance for any solution that doesn't involve loading the default UI!

The mail bug is an annoyance. I saw that ProfitRebornUI has it fixed, so I expect Zonx will tackle this sometime soon. It was a stealth job adding a "Spam" tab to your mailbox, I believe.

Faoj · #11 08-16-2007, 10:19 PM

Until Zonx releases a patch, simply:
Delete eq2ui_mainhud_mail.xml

That will cause the client to pick up the default file, give you the default mail window, and allow you to keep processing your email.

Re-installing Fetish will not fix the problem - SOE slipped in a new eq2ui_mainhud_mail.xml file on 8/16 (or so). They added a new tab, where SPAM email will be sent. And they added a 'version=2.0' field to one of the existing <Page> lines, so the client could detect when you were usiing an old xml file and give you the pop-up.

Mortimir · #12 08-23-2007, 11:01 PM

Love the UI Zonk. I am have trouble with my /lfg window. When I type /lfg I get a black window with some icon's on it, can't see frame to close the window or get my name up to Lfg window. I am sure it's on my end, but if you could point me in the right direction I would for ever be in your debt.
Thank You for all your hard work!!

FloridaFringe · #13 08-24-2007, 01:17 AM

Make sure that you have the following line in the EQ2/UI/Fetish eq2ui_mainhud.xml file:

<include>eq2ui_mainhud_lfg.xml</include>

quixadhal · #14 08-24-2007, 07:26 AM

Very nice UI! Simple and clean, and very handy for those of us with smaller resolution displays. Thank you!

One bug I found in leveling my crafter to 20 was that when you go to select your crafting subclass, it brings up a window with three debugging selections in it, instead of highlighting the one you clicked on. Easily worked around by switching to the standard UI long enough to pick your class.

A forum search found a similar bug for the level 10 class selection, but I believe I was level 12 when I installed this, so it may or may not be the same bug.

elphyne · #15 08-28-2007, 07:50 PM

its the eq2ui_popup_select.xml that causes problems when you try to pick a subclass profession at tradeskill levels 10 and 20.. so if you remove or rename that file it will load the default eq2 window and you can choose professions with no problem. i havent looked to see what else it effects if anything tho

Ayalin · #16 08-29-2007, 06:49 PM

Today I experienced a problem with the chat window. When I would hit enter to get the cursor to appear in the little box, it would be all squished up into the text that was already in the box, so it looked like I was typing the new line over the old one. When I clicked in the line to type, then I could actually see what I was typing clearly. It was as if that entry box for text appeared when I did that and not when I just hit -enter-.

Also, I lagged out fairly hardcore after this problem happened and finally ended up just loading up the standard UI. I"m not sure if they did a tiny patch that broke things or what. I was loving using your UI though. So clean compared to the normal UI.

blizzard0c · #17 09-13-2007, 08:49 PM

First of all, thank you for creating fetish UI. I truly love this UI.

Here is the exact error and I have confirmed that it is definatly the Fetish UI causing this error. I will explain how I did that.

----------------------------------------------------------------
Fatal Error

EverQuest II has detected an unrecoverable error and must shutdown.

<verify> D:\test\eq2\game\client\src\NCS2.cpp (1868):
Missing required window: NCS2Slideshow

----------------------------------------------------------------

To be as specific as possable there is the exact error...

Here is how I verified this error being caused by Fetish UI:

First I ran full scan from EQ2, error still showed.

Next I checked SOE website for the bug and was unable to find it so I called SOE tech support.

SOE sent me an email telling me which files to delete and let everquest re-download in patcher.

After doing that I still got the error so I fowarded to SOE my DXDiag, MSinfo32, and some other importiant files in the Everquest2 directory.
They got back to me to tell me it was a problem caused by running a custom UI.

At first I thought they we're just cheesing out and blaming someone else but when I deleted the fetishnightfall folder from my UI folder, EQ2 magically loaded up correctly and I was able to play again... but without Fetish Nightfall UI

;(

I said to myself, this looks pathetic! I need to get Fetish back on here. Now I went and got Fetish Nightfall 9.0 again even though thats what I already had and replaced it. Ran EQ2 Map Updater and the error is back. Now I'm deleting Fetish again.

Well I hope someone better then me at this can help fix this problem. Wish I had Fetish working!!

Yeah I quoted all of it. Now read just a few post above yours. Delete eq2ui_newcharscene2.xml and it will work fine. Its a single file. And btw not just fetish does this but a few others have done it.

Alec · #19 09-13-2007, 09:39 PM

Thanks!! That fixed it for me!!

EQ2 crashes when I go to Character Select.

The new Appearance tab is non-existent.

By loading in the Default UI (Ugh!!! What a disaster!! Reminds me of EQ1) I was able to use the appearance tab there. When coming back I usually have to /Load_uisettings to get my hot bars back. Also the merchant window then complains that my bags are overloaded. Exiting the game and coming back in solves that.

When I set the Sound with the EQII tab it is forgotten when I exit the game and come back in.

I don't know what I would do if Fetish Nightfall were to stop working!

I did get the Character Select to work by removing eq2ui_newcharscene2.xml to a temporary storage, but the CS screen is bad. It is out of alignment.

**Zonx** · #21 09-14-2007, 07:07 PM

If you're still crashing at character select you have not installed 9.1 properly. This update includes eq2ui_newcharscene2.xml dated 9/14/2007.

Whogga · #22 09-15-2007, 03:46 AM

I reinstalled 9.1 properly and i still get the same error before characterselection at startup. I still have to delet/rename eq2ui_newcharscene2.xml to be able to log in properly, strange but true

**lordebon** · #23 09-15-2007, 09:33 AM

Make sure you're doing a completely fresh install and not just adding 9.1 over 9.0.

Ruthillia · #24 09-15-2007, 12:57 PM

I installed 9.1 and everything works grand! Once again a wonderful UI and thanks for the timely update.

Oh, and I just did as I usually do, renamed the old FetishNightfall directory, unzipped 9.1 into my EQ2 directory and then ran the map updater. No problems!

I'd bet good money you do not have a copy of eq2ui_newcharscene2.xml dated 9/14/2007 in your FetishNightfall directory... which would indicate you did not install the update properly. Its a common mistakes to select the UI or Fetish directory when extracting. Extract directly to the Everquest II directory.
