The timer window is taken from mother9987. According to his release info it appears that 17 minutes is really the limit. I'll ask him whether there was a reason for this or whether he can extend the limit to 30 minutes. Otherwise I might take a look myself.

Xcelon 08-16-2006 04:35 AM

that would be awesome find my self using 2 timers all the time cuz of spawns and such far exceeding 17 min
thanks =)

Hi,

is there any way to get the Numbers show up in the Hotbars again?
As I mainly play using the keyboard itīs a bit hard to suggest the right key to press in some situations as the hotbar icons are not labeled with the key tumber/text.

Thanks and ... very nice UI :nana:

gm9 08-18-2006 04:20 AM

Yes, and you find that information in the FAQ in the download thread. :p

Is there any way to simplify the group window so that anywhere I click on them will simply result in that becoming my target?

Are you referring to the assist feature on group members' names interfering with targeting?

Yes. It also seems that at times the entire health/power window area is not clickable for target selection. I overwrote the groupmembers xml file to get back the standard one. That'll do.

Problem with raid window?
 
Hi,

i was wondering if there are any known bugs with the raid window? I havent checked this myself but heard it now from 2 raidleaders that they got problems when they try to switch people between groups.

If they tried it, they get booted to char selection screen. ( maybe crash to desktop not sure at all )

Deleting the raidwindow from the profit dir fixed they problem.

Greetings

Yeah the raid window has serious crashing issues when you try dragging folks in between groups for the second or thirdd time. It pretty much always crashes EQ2.

gm9 08-21-2006 07:07 AM

Yes, the raid window problem is known (I guess I forgot to list it in the known issues section), but I haven't been able to track down the cause. I'll try to completely recreate the window hoping that fixes is.

In the meantime if you are a raid leader just delete the eq2ui_mainhud_raid.xml from the ProfitUI directory. If you are not leading raids or not moving people around just keep the current window.

Comra 08-21-2006 03:10 PM

It might be me, but I can't get some of your windows to work....

I like your pet, clock and raid window, so I copied all image dds files + font dds + font xml + pet, mainhud, clock/compass xml... But all I see is this:



What am I doing wrong?

I usually use Tking and some other custom windows that I like..

Scrying Stone Window
 
First off, I'd like to say again - great job, and thanks for picking up the maintenance of the UI. It's still the best one out there, tell all your friends! lol

One thing I did notice, was the message for the scrying stones, you know - when you examine them in one of the rainbow sites? It's not that big of a deal, but it shows up colored, but with the message Scrying Stone Class, instead of The Coin Rune glows Bright Green, etc.

Didn't know if anyone still uses them, but I've got an alt with some of them left and noticed this the other night.

jdw2005 08-21-2006 11:46 PM

coin issues...
 
I run the full ProfitUI mod on my system, and everything works fine. My wife liked the broker window from it, so I'm glad it was posted seperatly for those that just wanted IT.. however, upon installing it (and updating the equi.ini file) we ran one of her toons to a broker and discovered that the coin does not display.. available oin below the buy window, coin earned, and the button to pickup the earned coin are all blank... any ideas?

I even made a seperate ui folder, named it myskin, copied all of the default ui subdir into it, dl a fresh copy of the broker window files, re-installed them, re-updated the equi.ini to reflect the new ui folder and tried again with the same problem, then I copied the files used in the broker ui from my full version ui (as a few of them were newer because I keep up on the patches for the full skin) and overwrote yet again, tested once again, and still no difference... am I missing a file or 3? mayhaps just a line error somewhere that I missed? any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Garick 08-22-2006 05:18 AM

Took this from the installation readme that comes with the down load

If you are already using another UI mod (this comprises EQ2MAP):

- Extract the files into your current custom UI folder

IMPORTANT: Do not overwrite your existing eq2ui.xml with the included file.
Instead, edit the existing eq2ui.xml in your custom UI folder
with notepad or another editor to add this line:

<include>_ProfitUI_Styles.xml</include>


Maybe that has something to do with it? But if you already tried that I am stumped as I have this mod running no problems following the instructions :)

gm9 08-22-2006 06:41 AM

Comra, you need to copy the ProfitUI_styles.xml as well and reference it in eq2ui.xml (see Garick's post above mine).

keyxik, sounds like a new bug from SOE. The text is dynamic and decided by the client, not the UI. I did actually use a few scrying stones I found on an alt recently and still had the correct message, so it must be a recent problem. /bug it if it matters.

jdw2005, try renaming your wife's server_character_uisettings.ini (this will reset all window placements) and don't load an alt's settings when it offers you the option. There may be an incorrect leftover setting in there from another mod. I take from your description that she does not use another mod at the same time, but if she does and resetting the uisettings does not work, please let me know which one.

sijal 08-22-2006 07:42 AM

I noticed that the xp numbers are off, does this have to do with the ui, or the game its self? I need 101% to level, and actually noticed my xp numbers going backwards a % in the 80's. (I went from 81.9% to 81.3 after killing a solo mob.)

gm9 08-22-2006 08:09 AM

The XP was introduced by SOE with LU24.

There are two XP window variants included, each using it's own method to help you see your exact XP (check the release notes). Both of them have issues, however, until SOE fixes this (which they may not).

BOPOHEHOK 08-22-2006 09:35 AM

Hi, my UI crashes after examining item from tradeskills window, can u help to fix it plz ?

-Hunt- 08-22-2006 10:37 AM

Hi, I use Profit UI all time while play on Runnyeye server and love this UI. I am really glad that you are working on this for us! Now I am on Devotion server, this is open beta server for Russia and 7-th september he start. Profic UI work correctly here, but have 1 problem with Inventory, not have images with picture of armor and jewelry on doll I see only bags. I think problem - different languages. Can you help to fix it? I think all russian players will say thank.

gm9 08-22-2006 11:05 AM

BOPOHEHOK, strange, this works fine for me. Try deleting eq2ui_examine.xml from the ProfitUI folder, this will make you use the examine window from the default UI.

-Hunt-, I saw that ThorUI's inventory window broke with Test Update 27. It may be that your beta server already has the same interface files. Just delete eq2ui_inventory_inventory.xml for the time being. I'll update the interface once the update hits the regular servers.

Love the UI, but...
 
I love the ui, I am new to using alt ui's so please be kind if I ask or say anything stupid. :) But I have a problem that sometimes the buff window (The one right above the group window) goes away and I have no idea how to get it back. Any help would be most wounderfull. :D

Thanks
Azrael

gm9 08-22-2006 03:30 PM

Hey, I'm always kind. :)

The buff window is scrollable. Scroll it back up with your mouse wheel if it goes out of sight. I decided to keep it scrollable (the default maintained window is not) because I will often have more maintained spells up than I can display at the same time, so scrolling comes in useful.

Thank you! Now it works like it should :)

I found out that there wasn't any eq2ui.xml in my eq2map folder and I must have missed that part with the _ProfitUI_Styles.xml.

Garick 08-23-2006 06:49 AM

Glad I could help :D

Hate to see people not able to use such a great UI :nana:

thanks agin

I extended the timer to 40 minutes today. I'm not sure how long until Profit is due for a version upgrade, so feel free to download the timer mod seperately and overwrite to have expanded time options.

Comra 08-23-2006 02:00 PM

I just got one question:

Is there anyway to get the clock to show the earth time in 24h instead of 12h?

It will be a while until the next release. If you choose to download the timer mod separately, extract only eq2ui_mainhud_timer.xml from the archive, rename it to _ProfitUI_Timer.xml and then copy it to your ProfitUI directory!

I don't think so. :)

It seems that everytime there is a pastch or update no matter how small my PUI goes3/4 away and I am left with what looks like in my attached file.. I mean everytime.. whats the deal? Any Idea?

gm9 08-24-2006 01:50 AM

I don't think I understand what you mean and you don't seem to be using ProfitUI either. :confused:

Not sure why every patch is reverting you to the default UI, unless some aspect of the UI is actually broken. My ProfitUI in any form hasn't outright broken on me since...DoF or something.

Check to make sure your "eq2.ini" file in your main EQ 2 directory still has this line in it:

cl_ui_skinname ProfitUI

If it doesn't, paste that line in, or re-download ProfitUI and use the included "eq2.ini" file, pasting over your existing one (and make sure your install folder is actually called "ProfitUI").

If ProfitUI still won't load, double check your installed files and their locations carefully to make sure everything is in the right place.

Findarato 08-24-2006 03:25 PM

Any chance on getting thoes total skins out anytime soon?

I really look forward to a green skin.

Goncyn 08-24-2006 05:13 PM

I'm pretty new to EQ2, but I already love Profit UI. Great work! I have one small problem... where the heck is the game menu button? The one you click to bring up the list of windows to open, options, etc. I can't find it!

The button is in a group just above the hotbars in the lower right. You can press F10 to show all your active windows and you should see it. Hope this helps. :D

Evan019 08-24-2006 11:51 PM

When I go into a broker (either my room or one of the instances) I get a message saying "I have to upgrade UI mod or use default UI." or something to that effect. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

Evan019, please download the latest version (link in my signature, when it shows, or on the front page "ProfitUI Reborn II").

Findarato, no, it will take a while since I'll be on vacation for two weeks starting tomorrow:



Yay me! :) See you later. :D

I found it, thank you! It was hiding... eventually I moused over it by accident and it popped out at me :)

Great work on this UI. I have a little bit of feedback already that I'll share:
  • I accidentally unlocked one of the target windows at the top at one point, and I couldn't find any way to (automatically) get it to go back where it was supposed to be. Is there some way to reload the layout that you pick by resolution when you first load the mod? I managed to get it looking right by dragging it carefully then re-locking it, but a position reset feature would be nice.
  • There are way too many chat tabs by default. Obviously some personal preference is at work here, but I was much happier once I'd condensed them down to Chat, System, and Combat. Having to flip between Chat and Tells just to carry on a private conversation was especially annoying.
  • I think the bag slots are a little too small. It's kind of tough to visually identify the icons. EQ's color palette already makes everything look kind of the same, so bigger icons wouldn't hurt. Is there some way I can tweak this?
  • The miniature inventory window doesn't quite sit with me. How about combining the inventory with the Persona window as another tab, with full-size item icons?

Thanks so much for this great mod! EQ2's default UI is horrible, and there seem to be precious few active UI projects. Keep it up :D
