I recently updated to windows 7. I'm having problems installing Darqui. When I click Check for Updates I get a cannot connect to update server please try again later message. I've made sure to add Darqui to both Norton and Windows Firewall (which is disabled) trusted list. I'm running as administrator, I've tried changing the compatabilty. I love this ui and had no issues with it on Vista. Please help me.

Lucifer66: glad you're operational, and thanks for posting the screenshot. I have no doubt it's going to help someone else with the same issue in the future.


JoyCrazy: hopefully it was just a rare case of the update server actually being down temporarily. I just checked and it looks like downloads are succeeding as of about 7PM Eastern. Did anything else change besides the operating system when you upgraded to Windows 7? And does your computer connect directly to the Internet, or through another computer? If you're connecting through a proxy server you may get errors or an unresponsive utility.

After a 2yr break - getting 16 characters and their UI's up and running takes aaaaages - I am SO glad I checked for new UI's here =) Thanks for your excellent work on DarqUI you made everything so much easier for me (I used to run a heap of separate mods) it has everything I need!

Lucifer66

Say is there a way you could add a bar to the pet window that shows how much affinity they have? It should be possible because I was just at a site that looks up your character name and what server they are on and it displays a bar and percentage for each warder.

There must be some way you could incorporate that into your UI isn't there? It would be great to be able to gauge it in real time.

Darqwood

Lucifer66: Yes it's a good idea, although from what I can tell the data for affinity is being sent directly to the Persona window from the server, so there doesn't appear to be a way to cleanly drop an affinity value or progress bar into another window.


Lovebrat: Thank you!

Darq, I love this UI, but for some reason it is not detecting all my characters. I play 3 accounts, and accumulated quite a few alts over the years. Right now the limit it detects is 21, some of which have not been touched in years. Is there a way to make the utility to detect the ones I used last?

Darqwood

Heimdall, look for a folder called logincache, or logincache-us, in your game folder. Inside that folder are CDC files, one per character. These are the files Quick Setup uses. Delete them or move them all out of that folder, then log in to the EQII Character Select screen on each of your three accounts. This will repopulate the logincache folder with your current characters. Once you've done that, open the utility and run Quick Setup again. You should now be able to choose from all of your characters, up to 48 in the dropdown lists. Post back here if this doesn't fix you up.

Still liking the ui, thanks for for putting in the coin window on the exp bar. Great job

Lucifer66

Do you think it would be possible to put a preview sound button next to the dropdown list of sounds you have for all the different things?
Something like this... (hope you don't mind me using a pic of your UI to illustrate)



I love all the sound options btw, nice work

Cant seem to get the new T10 cure potions to cast.

linkmaster

Yeah...where do we set the T10 potions up for the group and raid windows?...raiding tonight and it's an important update before then.

Darqwood

s1l3ntst4lk3r and linkmaster: you don't need to change anything to use DarqUI with the new tier of remedy potions. Since potions only cure the caster, they aren't useful in the context of group/raid. However, the Player window and the DarqUI Threat/Detriment window both use the built-in cureplayer commands for self cures, which automatically check for the highest level cure potion you have in inventory. If you still want to look up the itemvdls for the new potions, they are on EQ2U, for example:

Lucifer66: it's most likely possible, although I would need to check with the DarqUI Legal Staff about whether it's a good idea to extract and provide an external player for recorded materials. Another choice might be an in-game selector that lets you test the sounds quickly while logged in. Let me see what I can come up with.



Belexes: Thanks! I've gotten some good comments from players about your coin page.

I sent in a bug report. Its working with all cure potions except the new ones. I will add the item numbers till fixed. I know with the new command its supposed to find and use the highest level tradeskilled potion in your inventory. So I think its something on their end.

linkmaster

Hmmm that's strange, all I had in my bags was T10 trauma pots , but clicking the threat cure box for trauma didn't use them...I had to use them from the hotbar.

linkmaster

Could you show me where and how to put these values please?....
