Scroll to the bottom to see past changes.
-----------------
Set-up Instructions:
- Create a back-up of your current UI folder and current EQ2.ini file (found in root EQ2 folder)
- Drag all files within the "QuseUI" folder into your root EQ2 folder and drag the two font files inside the "Fonts" folder to your Windows' font folder (or drag to desktop and install them).
- Log-in and choose one of the "QuseUI" UI pre-sets (Windowed with shown/hidden bars, or Fullscreen with hidden/shown bars) once you have fully loaded the game (choosing while the loading won't apply settings)
-- If this isn't the first time logging in, type "/load_uisettings" and choose your desired "QuseUI" pre-set settings.
-- Check "Smooth Fonts" and Uncheck "Use small Serif Font" under Options>User Interface> Game Windows
- To open the Razc~ options panel, create a macro in-game with this command:
/show_window Custom.Dolt.
- Once in game, if what you see doesn't look like the screenshots included
be sure you have installed properly.
-----------------
Interface Pro-Tips:
- The spell timer mod included in this UI pulls the spells placed on hotbar #10 which allows you to easily use the same timer mod for all of your characters without any hassle (see
here for further clarification).
-- open hotbar #10 and place any spells you'd like to track on it. Feel free to close/hide the bar afterwards, the spells will still be tracked.
-- open the "_DefilerMonitor_Settings.txt" file in the QuseUI folder and add any procs you'd like to see in the last three spots.
-
If you are attempting to install this over another interface in hopes of using both you MUST know what you are doing with the "eq2ui_custom" file. Not installing the one included with this interface or just overwriting your old one will most likely cause elements of either UI to not work.

Change-log:
3/31 - v4.3
-*SHOULD* have everything out of the package that doesn't work anymore (leaving essentially everything but merchant windows, loot, persona, etc...).
Let me know if anything else doesn't work properly.
6/21 - v4.1[color="Silver"]
- Start menu now has an option at the top to open Drums' options menu.
-- Added a quick link in the Drums menu to the Razc options panel.
- New player and target/implied target cast bars.
-- Toggle for the target/implied target cast bar is in the DrumsUI menu.
You may have to resize the player and enemy cast bars to make them look properly. The ideal and best looking size is the smallest they can be resized.

Some updates!
