I have a small feeling that the old version of the InfoCenter existing in the UI ini file may have left over information that is conflicting with the new Info Center showing.


If you have the extra time, and maybe an extra character slot try:
-Create a new custom UI folder and install only this Info Center
-Alter your EQ2.ini file to use this new custom UI folder
-Create a new character (Don't import UI Settings)
-Login and see if you can access the Info Center without any problems

It would be a huge help to me if you could try this if possible, as I would love to help you get things working.

Yep, there was an entry in that file, however when I removed it the infocenter became a window of nothing but black and still could not close it. I replaced the entry and all was back. I then looked to other files where the include might be located and found it in eq2ui_custom.xml and removed it, but nothing happened. Everything was there and all worked, but still could not close infocenter.

Did you have any old Info Center versions installed? Do you have a eq2ui_journals.xml with maybe an old include in it?

Still trying to sort out the problems with old left over files that may have got missed on the users end.

Nope did not help. I still can not close. Everything still works, but still only thing is, I can not close window

I uploaded a new version, see if it helps out the problem.
The only file changed from v3 to v3.1 is the eq2ui_custom_infocenter.xml

I have the same issue s/he does - the "X" does not work for me.

Drumstix42

The "X" button is not funcitoning for you?

umm is it just me or is anyone else having the problem of once ya open infocenter it will not close.... I open it just fine, all info is there all tabs work, can minimize, can do everything with it, but just can not close it. I have to relog back into game.

with the new release, it's just an InfoCenter directory subdirectly in our custom UI directory, rather than in the DrumsUI subdirectory, right? just making sure, as i'm about to remove the old entries.

edit: just realized you had updated your install notes.

Drumstix42

Do you have a eq2ui.xml in your custom UI folder? If so, make sure eq2ui_custom.xml is included in it.

Do you have the eq2ui_custom.xml in place properly in your custom UI folder? Make sure the <include> is properly placed in it.

These are the only things that I can imagine are incorrect. I've tried installin this mod by itself and with other mods, and have ran into no problems, including friends computers

I still cant beat this issue which is a real bummer because i would love to use this mod.

Drumstix42

Double check the installation instructions to make sure everything was placed properly, and such. And what other UI or mods do you have installed? Did you have the old InfoCenter installed previously? Some people are having your problem, but many others are not running into it.

on july 26 08 i downloaded this info center but when i open it it just brings up a black window with nothing in/on it

Drumstix42

There's a good chance I can put something in so that it remembers what tab and page you were on when closing/opening the window.

Keeping the scrollbar in the same place when minimzing/restoring a little more tough because the window's size is being changed. I'll see what I can do, and thanks for the suggestions

Is there a way to make infocenter remember where you are in it when you close and reopen it? Failing that, is it possible when you minimize then maximize it for it to stay at the same spot. It's not too difficult to scroll down, but just curious if there is a way.
