Just want to clarify you're using The ThorUI AU and EQ2Maps together and you're updating both.

Best way is to configure ThorUI AU to auto launch EQ2Map afterwards.

We are not supposed to update the main_hud.xml from EQ2Maps correct?

I allow EQ2Maps to update whatever it needs :)

Yes allow EQ2Maps to update anything it needs to...

I do my best to make sure nothing within the ThorUI interferes with EQ2Maps so allow it to do whatever is needed.

Shutdown Screen
 

Hello,
I am not able to get the New Shutdown Screen on my 3 Good characters that have been in Qeynos for some time. My 1 Evil character is working fine and is in Scale Yard, my 2 Good characters on The Isle of Refuge are working fine. I installed the interface when my 1 Evil character and 2 Good characters were on The Isle of Refuge.

Any suggestion as to what it might be?

Waleska

Be sure to update the file "eq2ui_mainhud_shutdown.xml" with your new characters.
Directions are posted on the "about page" within the ThorUI AU feature.
Just press the "..." button.

Hi,

Yes I update both... I launch ThorUI to check for updates then I use EQ2Maps and let that update then it launches EQ2 for me..

Hmm I honestly dont have a cluse what could be wrong with your EQ2Maps

ThorUI is 100% compatible with it.

I know they are revamping EQ2Maps and still in the process I belive.

Post a screen shot, I may be missing something...

:( before I installed thorui, I could have inventory box open and when I hit enter on my keyboard I could type in chat box, but not any more. Now I have to close inventory or anything i have open before I can type in chat. However if i put the curser in chat and left click in it, I can type in chat . Is there something i can do to correct this ?

other than this, I enjoy this ThorUI
THankyou :)

To sum it up, I promised to fix it some time ago and completely dropped the ball on this one.
I apologize :o

I've updated the Inventory window and you should now be able to have it open without it affecting any windows in a negative manner.

Once again, sorry for the delay and as always, thank you for your feedback. ;)

:) wow that was the fastest responce Ive ever seen...
I am totaly happy now.. it works again. ty ty ty ty :nana:

Hello,
Once again I want to say that I enjoy using ThorUI and if this problem can't be resolved, I will continue to use this UI :-). I was wondering if there was a way I can load the spell listing mod into ThorUI, I don't see the xml file:
eq2ui_mainhud.xml

Thankyou

Program I am referring to is: Reference Library: Spell Listing by hirebrand

I'm not referencing external xml files that would require editing the mainhud.xml at this time. (basically I do everything in my power to keep from doing so as it only complicates things in my humble opinion.)

With that said, I would be happy to see about adding a spell listing into the Help window though ;)

It will take a little time with the holidays and other modifications i'm currenlty working on but i'll see what I can come up with.

Heya Faetyl,
It has been a while between posts. I have uninstalled Thor UI then re-installed the UI. Loaded the UI in-game. I still cannot get 3 of my older avatars to use the Thor UI shutdown xml file. The only xml file I can find is "eq2ui_mainhud_shutdown.xml". Again, these 3 avatars were already in Qeynos at the time I installed the UI. The other 3 were on the Isle of Refuge. I have moved an avatar of the Isle and to Freeport and the whole UI package is working properly. Do I have an option set wrong or what?

Waleska

Waleska,

If you have one character that it works properly for, my guess would be you might have a corrupt shutdown file (eq2ui_mainhud_shutdown.xml). I'd suggest deleting it and downloading a fresh one. Make sure the only things you are changing when you modify it are the parts in bold red print on the page the ". . ." button in the AU's Features section takes you to.

I need to make sure you're talking about the "Shutdown/Camp" window that comes up when you select "camp" while in game.

Or is the issue your "Window Placements File/where all your window are located for your alts"?

If it's the camp issue, yeah Lazaru5 brought up a very good point.

If it's the window placement issue, run the "window wizard" located in the options page within the ThorUI AU.

I'm not referencing external xml files that would require editing the mainhud.xml at this time. (basically I do everything in my power to keep from doing so as it only complicates things in my humble opinion.)

Thanks for answer, and I'm willing to wait for your spell listing

Corrupt Profiles of Characters
 

I found that the Profiles on first 3 Characters were Corrupted. I renamed the profiles and they were re-built by the game. After that the shutdown file (eq2ui_mainhud_shutdown.xml) worked on those Characters.

Thanks for the help in this matter!

Changing eq2ui_mainhud_shutdown
 

I have tried changing eq2ui_mainhud_shutdown with the EQ2UIBuilder.exe. I am wanting to add Character and Server names. However, everytime I make a change and I run "Thor UI Auto Update" program, a new copy of eq2ui_mainhud_shutdown is downloaded. What am I doing wrong?

Waleska

There is an option in the Advanced section of the AU which, when checked/marked, will keep the AU from overwriting newer files.

Full instructions in the features section for all UI mods. :)
Just click the "..." button to get there.

Target Box/Implied Target box (think thats the names)
 

Hi, Once again Thank you for a wonderful UI. :nana:

I need some help with changing something plz.
I personally prefer the Target/Implied Boxes from the "fetish" UI.
I thought i could simply replace your files with the ones from the Fetish one, but when i did this all i get is a black box. I can mouse over it and it gives me the info, but obviously that is not any use.
So i was wondering if it was possible to change this file someway.

Thank you in advance.

Stupid easy question (I hope)
 

OK one stupid question (I thought I knew the answer but apparently I'm dumber than I thought). Lets say I have a basic setup on a character that I like, how can I duplicate to another character? (I thought it was simply a matter of changing the character.ini file but apparently I'm wrong). The character in question is a new character created after the initial install of ThorUI (if it matters)

Thanks for such a wonderful UI

You should be able to simply copy the character .ini file (mine, for example, would be mistmoore_ulcifer_eq2_uisettings.ini) you wish to duplicate and rename it for the new character. So, if I make a new character that I want to use the same window setup as my main, I would copy the above file and rename it with my new character (from mistmoore_ulcifer_eq2_uisettings.ini to mistmoore_joeschmo_eq2_uisettings.ini).

Is there a way to make the inventory window larger? specificlally the part that shows what the character has equipped? Or iss there a mod that would keep most of this interface( which I like very much) but do something more like the paper-doll display of equipment? I dropped my the resolution of the game downb down to 1024, which seemed to make most of the windows the size I wanted, but I have to squint to make out the equipment.
Anyway, thank you for the interface, and Happy Holidays.

Go into the features section and use Jaxel's inventory mod or if you don't like it either simple deselect any inventory mod, delete the thorui folder and allow it to redownload all files. You'll then have the thorui without using the inventory mod.

FYI, paperdoll is accessable through the persona window and is completely resizable. My inventory mod is meant to make the inventory small enough to remain open and funtion as a hotbar.

installing problems
 

I point the installer to my eq2 ui folder and it installs there but then the updater sends all the files its dling to c:\thorui so ui will not work so after atemping to do it again a few times i said screw it and just copyed files to the ui folder from the c:\thorui witch works but defeats the perpose of the installer and updater. I looked for an option to change the folder where the updater puts its files with no luck. What am i doing wrong ? :nana:

Uninstall completely. :)
Install the ThorUI AU [Let it install in the default location of C:\Program Files\thorui]
Run the ThorUI AU then click on cancel to stop the download.
Click on Options and setup the patth to the UI to your EverQuest II\UI directory.

Let me know if you need more help.
Note: Install instructions are posted here: http://www.eq2interface.com/forums/s...ead.php?t=4880

Load The User Interfac Selector ? HOW?
 

I need to get to it to copy settings and switch between default and thorui as i can't get thor ui to use everything but it's tradeskill window. I need the default one and i have it unchecked but still uses thorui's so i need to beable to switch back and forth.

OK, if I understand your situation correctly, you've tried using the tradeskill window provided in ThorUI but don't want it anymore and you're having trouble reverting back to the default window, right?

If that's the case, you have two options.

1) Browse to your thorui folder (by default, it's usually C:\Program Files\Sony\EverQuest II\UI\thorui), and delete the eq2ui_tradeskills.xml file in there.

2) Delete the entire thorui folder, and rerun the AU (make sure you have any/all mods unchecked that you don't want, of course).

Hi guys, I posted this above, but i seem to be passed over.
Plz could i get help with this, i cant code or do any of the fancy stuff you have put together, i just want to put a different styled target box in place of the current one u use. :(

Not sure if this will help or not, but.....

Delete the entire thorui folder from your UI directory, and rerun the AU. Make sure you have any unwanted mods unselected before running the AU, of course. Then add any desired mods that aren't included in ThorUI afterward.

You could also request the windows you prefer to use to be added as an option in the AU ;)

Thanks Lazaru5,
I'll give that a go.

As for requesting it, i felt a bit cheeky :o as it was, but for that one Target box (which seems to keep me alive when tackling mobs) this UI is perfect.

Ill seek out the request thread and post my cheekyness there ;)

Edit: Tried it m8, it didnt work :(

Fetish renames most default files to fetish.* or something of that sort.
So his mod is looking for files that don't exist.

Easy way to get his taget mod to work with thorui au is to...
1.) setup ThorUI AU (ensure you go into options and select "do not overwrite newer files")
2.) Download his target mod and extract to a folder
3.) Take the contents of that folder and copy them all to the EverQuest II\UI\thorui folder. (Make sure you've got the actual files as it may extract to a folder within a folder...)
That should do it...

That worked great thank you so much for your help. :cool: :nana: :)

My question is regarding the Quest Journal.

With the (somewhat) recent addition of quests showing the rewards, I didn't think anything of the fact that I only saw the reward when asked to Accept the quest and not in the journal afterwords. I figured that was "as intended". It was only when my hubby installed EQ2 on another PC and loaded the game without ThorUI that we realized with the default window you can also see the rewards in the actual quest window.

So is there any way the ThorUI quest window could be updated to reflect this change?

Thanks again to you and all the other modders for your hard work!

Absolutely

It's been requested and pending time from me to get it updated.
I'll have it this weekend.

Normally i'd have it already but with the holidays...

------Edit--------
Done
Let me know if you have any troubles

Hi, first i want to excuse because my english is not the best ;)

I have a problem with the ThorUI EXP-Window and smooth fonts enabled.
I'm playing at a resolution of 1280x800 (widescreen laptop) and i have smooth fonts enabled.
Everything looks fine but there is one little problem with the EXP-Window.
Due to the bigger font size, the values for adventure and tradeskill experience don't fit into their areas and are cut off, so i cannot see my experience percentage. I'll add an attachment so you can see what i mean.

So how can this be fixed. I tried to do it with the ui-builder, but i don't have a clue how to use this :o

Much thanks for answers
