Updated: 03/05/2008
- Compatible with LU43. What changed:
--New loot options: Need before greed

If you want to choose Need, you will have to click the button (I have chosen this way, so people dont click Need all the time (you munchkins!)
To update, just download the new version, and expand all files overwriting the current UI folder you have
Thanks Absinnthe for helping me out with testing the loot window

--Pet options window (use the command /petoptions
--Connection stats (press F11)
- Added the latest map updates for eq2maps.
Updated: 01/07/2008
I am working hard on creating the easiest possible installation for this UI. I would like for those people that have difficulties with computer instructions to have a no headache installation.
With this update I am also including all updated maps and waypoints, it makes the file bigger. Let me know what you think about this: bigger .zip file but already with all maps, or smaller .zip file, where you will have to run updater and download all maps later...
In this update:
- Harvest Window now has T8 information! (Thanks Ophelya (Antonya Bayle) for harvest information, and Buyirugh/Chomsky (Unrest) for updating the harvest window!!!)
- Compass: added region information. Now it will not only display what zone you are in, but also the region in the zone (new feature from Update #41)
- Removed Map mods from Fetish, to fix several map problems concerning waypoints. There is still an issue with some waypoints, but the biggest problem is fixed (where waypoints from previous visited zones would remain in the map until you closed the game)
- Added a pre-configured layout for all in-game windows.
(follow the setup instructions bellow to install this)
How to install / update
1) Download and unzip the UI file to
[Your Everquest II folder]\UI]
It will create a folder named "Goldi" (if you are updating, overwrite all files while unzipping)
2) Open Windows Explorer, and go to this folder:
[Your Everquest II folder]\UI\Goldi]. Run
___SETUP_Goldi_UI.bat, and follow the instructions.
3) You are now ready to play!
------------------------------------------
What does Goldi MMM UI have offer?
I made "Goldi MMM(Mix and Match and a little bit More!)" from several Interface pieces i have gathered from this excelent website.
(In this new version of my UI, most of it is actually "Fetish Classic", since i found out this new ui has almost everything i like!)
Bellow i give credit to all the exceptional UI Builders that made this possible.
Appart from just copying and pasting, i have updated, altered or completelly overhauled one or two pieces, and you can also read bellow which of these pieces i have done.
I hope you find this usefull, and as i said before, please send suggestions!!!

depechenode's Advanced Examine Windows
URL: http://www.eq2interface.com/downloads/fileinfo.php?id=3607
Author: depechenode
Date: 04-06-2005 06:24 PM
Version: 2.0
Description
This is my version of the Examine windows. This xml file contains all the Examine windows in it. And is a direct replacement for the default eq2ui_examine.xml file.
When any one of the types of examine windows open, the control to close is hidden. Simply hover the mouse on the examine window and the CLOSE button displays. Take mouse off, and the close button goes away.
I also tried to rid as much "dead" space as possible.
Some of it, is just not able to be gotten rid of.
For instance the bit of space at the bottom of the spell, item and recipe windows.
Credit to anyone who I might have used bits of their stuff in my window just forgetting what I might have used.
What is Changed:
Corrected "cropping" of certain recipe windows.
Added Item Ratings to Item Description.

Fetish Classic (several other window modifications)
URL: http://www.eq2interface.com/downloads/fileinfo.php?id=3631
Author: Zonx
Date: 03-29-2005 06:03 AM
Version: 3.0
Description
I found out that the new "Fetish Classic Complete Set" has almost everything i like, and several features i was using from other UI pieces.
What i have done is remove features i disliked in Fetish, and added those i was using on my UI.
I had to do very few modifications in Fetish, so most of the files you have here in my UI are actually Fetish.
Another good thing is that, by making very few modifications to the pieces i use from Fetish, i have a good chance that my UI will be able to use future "skins" from Fetish
(Read more about this from the man himself, Zonx, here: http://www.eq2interface.com/downloads/fileinfo.php?id=3631)
Bellow are the features from Fetish i am using
The others are the ones i have already said above....
General
* Every window reskinned and condensed.
* All window default positions have been optimized for screen resolutions of 1280x1024 or larger and to minimize overlap. Smaller resolutions may experience less than ideal positioning.
* Many window buttons now activate on ENTER and ESC.
* Some text set to Arial for space saving reasons.
* ArialComplete was removed but can be added as a seperate download.
Specific Window Changes
* Bags: 6 bag styles included (2 fill patterns in 3 sizes) with stay-put feature. The default bag style is 75% scale, standard 4 across horizontal fill. Other basic fill styles can be found in the Fetish directory.
* Bank: has been condensed.
* FetishDock: This custom window controls the snap-to location of the Inventory window when shrunk. EQ2 should save its location if you prefer a different docking area.
* Inventory: has been streamlined. Now shows character name. Toggle button added for showing/hiding character stats and XP bars. Help button tooltip now displays a list of rares for each tier. Title bar has been removed and window controls moved to the bottom. Added Zoom(.Z) and Collapse(V) buttons. Zoom toggles the window size between 100% and 75% scale. When shrunk, the window is moved to the FetishDock location (the screen's lower right corner by default). Collapse hides/shows the upper portion of the window (everything above the Primary/secondary slots) and locks the window in place. The Dock(D) button opens and closes the FetishDock window. See "Customizations" below for instructions on setting alternate modes as the default display option.
* Market: Find Items button now activates on ENTER. Window has been condensed.
* Merchant: Max window height increased. Window now stretches in all directions. ¾ sized icons and reorganized display/buy area allow for more listings to be shown.
* Store: has been condensed and includes Quib's Quick Search feature. The Quick Search button opens the Market window and adds the name of the last clicked store item to the find field.
* Trade: window has been condensed.
* Journal: Side-by-side quest list and details frames. Entire window now stretches in all directions. New Splitter bar allows left and right frames to be sized independent of the window. Somewhat condensed lists.
* PlayerHousing: Enter and Leave buttons now activate on ENTER.
* Visit Inn Room: Enter and Leave buttons now activate on ENTER.
* TradeSkills: Window now stretches vertically. Titlebar now includes a toggle button for the buff bar displayed on the Create page.
* Recipes: ¾ sized recipe icons allow more list items to be displayed.
* Filter: Sub frames enlarged to display more items without scrolling. Sadly a scrollbar bug prevents the outer scroll from functioning if made to stretch so I left it a fixed height.
* Create: Condensed layout. Health, power, percentages and buffs added for easier monitoring. Stop and Repeat buttons now activate on ESC and ENTER respectively. Stop and Repeat buttons now share the same space, each visible when functional.
* Prepare: Condensed summary page. Cancel and Begin buttons activate on ESC and ENTER respectively. Choose page now scales with window size to display more items at larger sizes.
* Loot: has been condensed. Loot All/Request All buttons activate on ENTER.
* MainChat: Scrollbars moved to the right side for consistency.
* Skills: Condensed window now stretches in all directions.
* Societies: Window resizes in all directions.
* Tracking: Everything but the track list and frame auto-hides on mouseout. Ultra-compact layout. The list area includes a semi-transparent background for easier reading. To modify the opacity of this background see "Customizations" in the manual.
* Community: window has been condensed.
* Zoning: No longer blanks the entire screen. Chat while zoning is possible but does not respect BACKSPACE, ENTER, slash or other keys that normally place focus in the chat window. You must click the chat window's text entry area to chat. Now displays min-art with Exit button. Same area displays new character slideshow intro with expected navigation. Movable but does not save location.
Many thanks again, to all the Modders, whose work made possible for me to make this UI, the way i like it ( and i hope, others will like too!)
