This is a tool that will allow you to switch from one character to another without actually having to camp to the character select screen, selecting a character will simply camp the character you are currently logged in with and login the new on immediately saving you quite a bit of time!
To use it simply unzip it to your eXtreme directory and edit the file named eq2ui_mainhud_quicklog.xml in notepad or some other text editor. Go through then file and change all references to Character and Server to the character name and server they are on. For example, if you wished to log in a character named Mytoon on the Unrest server you would go into the file and look for this
Code:
LocalText="Character" LocalTooltip="Server"
then all you need to do is change it to
Code:
LocalText="Mytoon" LocalTooltip="Unrest"
. Don't worry if you have multiple characters of the same name on different servers either since the button will show the character name and the tooltip for that character will be the name of the server they are on.
DO NOT add anything other than the Character name or server name to these fields and make sure you change both or it
WILL NOT WORK!
This doesn't overwrite the current camp window and that will work as it always has, it makes use of the disabled "notes" button in the experience bar at top left of screen, the button has been re-enabled and named "Switch" simply click it to bring this window up once in game.
I would like to thank Mahonri for originally coming up with this idea and posting it, I took quite a bit off of his idea to do this for eXtreme. I would also like to thank sammeria for requesting this mod in the eXtreme forum as it gave me a wonderful opportunity to write my first mod!
If you require any assistance getting this working please feel free to PM me, thanks!
I have started a thread for bug reports and such here!
Ver 1.1:
* Just a minor fix to put the buttons in the correct order, had them reversed
in first release.
Ver 1.1a:
* Another minor fix so it will work again after applying Landiins Hotfix 14c.
Ver 1.1b:
* Fixed missing button and canged button used from the Notes button to
the Info button as there was more room for the text.
