I shrunk my effects icons to 1/4 size and haven't noticed any negative effects to my healing abilities when playing my 27 Inquisitor. /shrug It's mostly a personal preference thing, though.

This a great mod. Being a healer it is very important to quickly see all bars. When in a group, would it be possible to have the "F#" beside the persons name? Just something I found that helps when I am in a hurry and someone other the MT is taking damage. I only use F buttons when selecting players to heal.

I must say this site rocks.

OK here is a round of odd errors associated with the target window bundle that I've encountered with this mod.

When I log in fresh, all seems well, colors and values look as they should, like this:

However, if I camp out and log back in (using quick log, bypassing patcher) to the same or a different character, all names are green as if every PC or NPC I target is a green con, there is a green outline around the target, and my mana numbers are also green, like this:

Also encountered this bug, a second or third log in, and after running the patcher just for kicks. Every target is incorrectly displayed as having zero hitpoints, the bar is darker and the % for the target's health says "None", like this:

Last night when I logged on Mystique for the first time after downloading this mod (logged on my Monk first), every target's name was in red, as if everything I targetted was a red con mob...basically identical to the "all green" issue above but in red (sorry didn't get a screenshot of it).

Any clue what's going on here? I tell ya, that Eloora is just never satisfied is she?! :p

What Video Card are you using? Its possible that it was getting too hot, and causing graphic anonmalies of sorts. After your system is off for a good amount of time (hr at least) to cool off. Turn it back on, and try your theory of camping the way you did , and seeing if it continues to do what you just posted.

If it does not, it was most likely because of heat issues.

If it does, then it might be one hell of a wierd bug encounter, lol.

I am getting the very same errors that she is getting. Also, I am getting a black square background over part of the names of the things I target, without getting to see the con (heroic, solo, whatever they have changed it to).

So...sounds like more than overheating.


PS--I have a level 30+ templar--And I really need all four of those status icons for the stuff my party fights. :)

Like I said, personal preference thing. :) I can see all of my group effects icons at 1/4 size (even if that stupid swarm of rats thing the nameds in the D'Morte dungeon summon can't be cured...boy have I wasted some power trying that hehe) but if you like full size better, more power to you. :)

I had the same sort of issue lastnight also with window mods that were working fine, camping etc did nothing to help just changed colors etc.

So I just /exit and restarted eq2 and the problem was gone, I have seen this happen before. Mainly before or after a zone / server crash..

Of course overheating could cause it, but not so in my case.

The problem seems to fix itself :rolleyes:

Any helpfull souls out there that can help me modify the group window?

Wish for the debuff icons to be half the size and the width on the debuff "row" to be half the size. Making the window not to broad.

I run the game on an Nvidia geforce 6800 GT, and this is definately not a heat issue, the errors are too specific and reproduceable. I can log on character 1 for the first time right after booting, then immediately camp out and log back in and this error would occur. It's gotta be happening due to a glitch in the code or the graphic files, or the way the game is handling the mod.

I've seen some pretty weird UI errors in my day, but eventually, some sleuth figures them out and fixes them :)

Eloora, have you been getting the black recktangle behind your target & implied targets' names? That is, when you make the windows' backgrounds translucent? I wonder if I am the only one with that background problem.

Also, I have an ATI card, and having the same problems as you makes it *really* seem like something besided a card issue. (It might be an SOE issue, but like you said--this is the job for someone else to figure out.) :)

Nope i looked for your black rectangle issue and can't say that i've seen it.

I'm running into a problem with the target box. . where it lists the level and class name, I get a colored box. When I first logged on, this box was white. Then I logged to an alt and it changed to green. Upon switching back to my main, the rectangular box was still green. I got a pic of this and will try to upload it.

As for group buffs and debuffs, so far, I do not see those in my box. Was that feature taken out?

Is there some visual way in to let me know that I am in Attack Mode? I do not believe I saw my name flash as it did in the old UI and when I have the sound off, I don't immediately pick up the fact that I'm fighting until I bash something I hadn't intended to hit.

Damn so much issues :(

I will have a look on it.

Please verify that you have the Tyejae_targetperdi.dds file in your image folder.

Can someone test this version and let me know ?

But we are alll REALLY glad you are doing this! :)



That is the same thing that happens to me-- but instead of green, my mysterious box is black.

Loaded the new version on the test server since Permafrost is down as usual.
Admittedly I didn't get to do a thorough check but I still noticed a couple of aesthetic issues remain. I've attached 3 files showing what's going on with the % window.

The background of the %'s window still will not fade at all, it stays 100% opaque no matter where the slider is. Also there is a second frame around this window "under" the regular frame that appears when I try to fade the background, but disappears when the sliders are back to 100% opaque. Weird.

Also, and this minor detail you probably didn't bother with yet, but the ^^ indicators above group target's names in the target window still peek over the top frame a little bit. If it's possible to raise the height on the target window and the % window (to match of course) so that the arrows stay within the frame that would be cool.

Will test more to see if the color issues are fixed when I have some time.

This is still a rockin' mod!
 

This is coming along great! Here is the latest screenshot for ya...

My black box problem is completely gone, from what I can see! Good work!


One thing appears to be stuck, though--the game thinks that everything I have targeted is triple-upped (^^^). And I have myself targeted in the screenshot. Oh, how I would like to be triple-upped! :)

And, as a tiny nitpick that I am sure someone else will mention (so I will beat them to it), is that the target's power & HP bars are not aligned.


Great work perdition! We are cheering you on! (cheer noises)

Here is a version that should kill all remaining bugs.

Please test it on old and new con mod.

My setup, only wish as i said would be "cut" group debuffs width to its half making room for more of chat window

Help me Perdition, you are my only hope :)

Love your work, allways has

Yes, the above named file is in the Image folder of my Healer UI Folder.

Getting better but still not as clean as it could be. The % window still will not fade to transparent at all, and has the extra little gold border around it. The numbers in that window are still a little too higgldy piggldy for my taste, as shown in the attachment. Having each row aligned on the right by the % of each number would be sharper and easier to read. If this isn't possible for whatever reason, at least let me know.

Still also having the strange bug of having every target apear as a green con (mobs, npc's, pc's, resources) any time I log into the game again after camping. Would be very interested in knowing why this is occuring.

One helpful thing I'd like to see added are the F lables for the group members' names on the left side of the window. I think someone else has also requested this, and this being a healer oriented mod, this seems almost a requisite.

Oh, always forget this one. You cannot target yourself by clicking on your health/power bar like you can in the default window. Please put this functionality back if possible.

Thanks for your continued work on this mod perdition :)

You click your self on the window you posted. Thats the player window

Gotcha, thanks.

Hello :)

At least the Black Background/gold frame player window should be fixed.
All percents are right aligned
F labels have been added

@Eloora, for the green con, could you please make the test with old and new con system to know if it happens on both ?
