Just switched to the Live version.

And the prestige stack monitor is awesome! My warlock is going to love it.

But my main is a conjuror, and I really don't need it for the prestige stack spells. What I would really like is to be able to track temp buffs on me - such as elemental toxicity, time warp, etc. Spells that show up in the "Spell Effects" window. They do not show up in the "Maintained Spells" window - and they are also cast by other people (I group with other summoners that cast ET, I want to know when it's worn off so I can cast it)

Is this possible?

I love the DarqUI - and try to get everyone to try it

Hi Caela, thank you Spell effects don't have the same exposure in the UI as Maintained effects, and so extracting the data for a Spell effect is a much more troublesome proposition. After working through the Stack Monitor code I do have some new ideas about how a Spell Effects monitor could possibly be done, but I am fairly sure it would put heavy pressure on game performance. But I will put it on the list of things to try; it's been requested many times to just about all the UI authors.

Chat Tabs
This is great - I love it thank you so much. I was wondering though, and I maybe being really dumb here, but how do I change the chat tabs to the bottom of the chat window please? I can't seem to find a Darqsettings window for the chat windows.

Hi Macalacca, thank you for your comments. The Chat window with bottom tabs is an alternate file, so the option is on the downloader rather than in-game. Right-click the "gear" icon (see last image in the UI description above), choose bottom tabs from the pop-up menu, then download the file.

Hi rena, if you configure DarqUI Live settings and then later install EQ2MAP, your previous settings will appear to be reset since EQ2MAP creates a new POI folder, which is where the custom settings go. If this is the case for you, either move the darqui_ files out of the UI\Default\POI folder into the new POI folder in your custom UI, or reconfigure the settings.

When you accept a color theme and download it, this places the theme files into your UI folder but it does not install them. In order to use a custom theme, click the gear icon at the top of the updater window and choose the theme from the dropdown. Please post back here if this does not correct the issue.

thanks for the help currently the group spell settings working properly
but the Exp bar settings sometimes reseting
also personal settings icon tab resets


and no i always install ui then eq2map before i use it
so , mostly it happens when i changed settings on one toon and hop to another doing their settings then hop back , some of the settings i mentioned it resets , especially the group hotkey spell icons turn black but the keys is still bind there though


theme is working though

Edit :
btw is there any chance you can include spell icon size in the target window like previous draqui ? also i found out that those spell icons on group window doesn't refresh
when hoping to another toon ( stays on the first toon you logon / previous untill you change it manually )

thank you

Rena, the behavior you see with the settings is a limitation of using the mapping system to save customizations. You can set up character A, then set up B, but if you want to switch back to character A you must either /loadui or log out to desktop and restart the game. This only happens during setup. Once you are all set up you can restart the game and switch between characters like normal.

The target/implied target icon size was unfortunately broken when the game developers forced the icons to 15 pixels to accommodate other features. If this changes (not likely), I can put the resizer back in.


Also: when you choose a preset spell in the window manager, the icons on the right-hand side switch to the page where that particular icon is located. When I was developing this it seemed intuitive to switch pages, although I have gotten other feedback that this is somewhat confusing until it is explained.

Large resolution
My monitor is 2560x1440 and the default UI is way too small.
Does DarqUI have any type of scaling so I can make the UI elements bigger?

Pox67, in both versions of DarqUI the Spell Effects, Maintained, Detrimental Effects, and Hotbar windows have text elements that scale up as you enlarge the icon size. The Spellcasting bar resizes its text based on how wide it is stretched, and in the standard version of DarqUI (here) the Group window can be scaled up to double its size in 10% increments. You may want to experiment with lesser screen resolutions if the entire interface is unusable due to its small size. The game world will not look as good, but the UI pieces will grow to be more readable.

Good news Darqwood. I'll give it a try, thanks.

Copying setup to different characters
I have one character configured exactly the way I want it with window settings and Darqui_iive settings. I can copy the window settings to another character, how do I copy the darqui_live settings? I have a LOT of characters, so doing each one individually would make me kill myself.

Zendi, no need to jump off the wizard spires. You can use Notepad to copy settings quickly from one character to another. First you need to open your \POI folder, which if you use EQ2MAP it will probably be in the \UI\DarqUI_Live folder, otherwise it will be in the \UI\Default folder. Each DarqUI Live window that you have configured will have its own configuration file containing all characters. For example, darqui_xpbar.xml has all of your XP Bar settings.

Open the file with Notepad, make sure Word Wrap is turned off, then copy and paste all blocks of code with the donor character's name. For some windows there will only be one block and for others there will be several, not necessarily all in one place. Replace the donor character's name with the new character, save and restart the game. In this example I copied Jimmy's XP Bar settings to Billy:



Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Page Name="POI">
    <Page Name="Jack_0">
        <Icon Name="4" PathFindLocation="0.00 20000.00 0.00" PoiDescription="7" PoiResource="site" PoiShowAlways="true" PoiType=":69c2ff8796bcf61b_1:site" Tooltip="4" />
    </Page>
    <Page Name="Jill_0">
        <Icon Name="4" PathFindLocation="0.00 20000.00 0.00" PoiDescription="9" PoiResource="site" PoiShowAlways="true" PoiType=":69c2ff8796bcf61b_1:site" Tooltip="4" />
    </Page>
    <Page Name="Jimmy_0">
        <Icon Name="4" PathFindLocation="0.00 20000.00 0.00" PoiDescription="11" PoiResource="site" PoiShowAlways="true" PoiType=":69c2ff8796bcf61b_1:site" Tooltip="4" />
        <Icon Name="8" PathFindLocation="0.00 20000.00 0.00" PoiDescription="1" PoiResource="site" PoiShowAlways="true" PoiType=":69c2ff8796bcf61b_1:site" Tooltip="8" />
    </Page>
    <Page Name="Billy_0">
        <Icon Name="4" PathFindLocation="0.00 20000.00 0.00" PoiDescription="11" PoiResource="site" PoiShowAlways="true" PoiType=":69c2ff8796bcf61b_1:site" Tooltip="4" />
        <Icon Name="8" PathFindLocation="0.00 20000.00 0.00" PoiDescription="1" PoiResource="site" PoiShowAlways="true" PoiType=":69c2ff8796bcf61b_1:site" Tooltip="8" />
    </Page>
</Page>


Make sure you copy complete character blocks from <Page... to ...</Page> and dont put any information after the very last </Page> in the file.

Copying Settings
Thanks. I had two copies of the xml's, one in the UI folder, the other in the Darqui_live POI because I installed eq2map after. Now that I know where they are, I am set.
