I am wondering if Info Center will be updated since all the spell name changes as i use it a lot as a referance when i need to make the next tier of spells.
Im useing Profit UI but im aware that the info center isnt just used in that ui.

Yours

I too would like to know when the info centre is going to be updated. It is an integral part of the UI and a very important part of it. Anyone care to comment on this as there has been no response to the poster above?

Lotta information in there to keep it all updated, no matter which of the versions floating around. I haven't been able to keep up with mine with RL.

Updating all the spells names would take a good bit of time, and I would suggest taking the files you can, and submitting them with the proper changes.

They're just simple txt files, and if you at least do the one with your main class, then you'll be helping everyone else out in the process.

Cheers.

I have no idea how to do that. If no one is going to update the info centre what else is not going to be updated? Will the entire UI just degrade to uselessness because no one is taking on the job of the prior creator?
When the expansion comes out will this UI keep up with the possible changes that most probably will occure?

If you could at least tell me where to go and how to make the changes I can give it a go.

Thanks...

Just go into the InfoCenter folder and edit away at the .txt files.

If it does not work, you likely installed it incorrectly. Always try a clean install before reporting bugs.

Such is the way of a community volunteer supported system. Look through the old mobs here, you'll see lots that have not been updated in eons.

Personally, with EQ2i and the in-game browser I no longer use the infocenter, others may feel the same, thus no one has really taken the time to update it.

Upload them as a patch to the official InfoCenter download maybe? Possibly Drums' version. If you send Kaldran a PM about it I'm sure he'll add it to the ProfitUI updater also (or to Chrislau if he's set up to upload to the updater, no idea, I'm really out of this ).

If you wanna to add it to my version (found here) you could post a reply to the topic and add the changes as an attachment. The text files are only a few KBs so it should be no problem.

I think all the latest versions of the InfoCenter are fairly the same. I think if I remember right, gm9 took my version and edited it to work properly in Profit and made some tweaks to it as well.
I know mine still lacks information of TSO and later.

Indeed, I took your updated InfoCenter framework as a base and tweaked it a bit. As to the datafiles you had used my patch to the original Milquetowst InfoCenter IIRC so content-wise they are mostly identical I think (the ProfitUI version was slightly more updated but I can't remember anymore what for specifically).

Heck, I *originated* the InfoCenter, and I don't even use it any more.

Some things I can just find answers to faster in a pre-defined layout of the UI then I can by opening the in-game (or external) browser and searching for it.

I think my favorite useful information is L&L book locations, cause I always forget.
