And here's an updated version of the horizontal to match the new vertical style.

This version has otions to turn background and classes on/off by using the Titlebar and frame window settings.

Please see post below/

Status window to narrow
 

On my screen some text areas on the status window are too small. Especially the XP percentage is only displayed half and the character name and guild level seems to wrap. I have a 1920x1200 display, so there is plenty of space. Resizing the window doesn't help, because the content stays at the same size. Is there a way to customize the percentage size?

Please post a screen shot to help me picture it.

LOVE the UI. Two problems I have found with latest version.

1) The inventory screen..."Drop in Inventory" drag button doesn't seem to work.

2) Target window...Top name always displays "Mender Krellian" or some such name. Real target name only appears below, not on top of target.


Thanks!

I still dont know about the inventory - I've not changed any of that stuff.

Target window - the name in the blue bar should just say "Target". Do you have a screen shot ?

PERFECT!
this one is what i exactly needed! :)


eh.. it seems have bug..
i cant see 4th group member..

both horizontal ones dont work properly..
i had 5 in my group but just could see 2 memebers including me.
it was only me having problem with it?

Don't think I can get away with 3x2 format :(

Please don't forget to rename the files.

One place I remember noticing it is when stood on the landing platform on the steppes griffon tower in antonica ... the /loc for that is something like -2136,15,614 ... what would happen is the 614 wraps around and onto the next line so all that is seen is the top half of the number.

I'm running at 1280x1024 btw :)

Attached captures of the /loc problem and the xp glitch I mentioned in another post.

the xp is because the 1 is so skinny, i think i saw another post by profit that said he couldnt do anything about it. :(

I've fixed the compass problem a while back - will appear in next update.

As for the font issue, I've explained somewhere else about this - the only way for ANYONE to get away from this issue is to use monospaced fonts.

We have to work with 2 sets of data here.

e.g. 28 and 81 - this would infact be 28.1, as you can see we have to "hide" the 2nd 8 :(

heres a present for you profit :D since your ui is awesome!!!
i fixed the font to make the 1 work right in the exp, let me know if there are any other #s that need to be "fixed" as well.

i tested it and it appears to work in game, however can you (or someone else) confirm it please.

for anyone who has the font already installed, windows makes you delete it first before you can re-install it so dont forget to do that (i think it will just promt you or something if you forget to delete it first)

anyway, the font file is attached inside the zip.

its really late(5am) so i may have missed something; if i did i let me know and i will fix it when i wake up. also i hope i attached the right font but im not even sure about that LOL :eek:

I like the new bottom bar in 1.5e, 2 things though. Avoidance is shifted slightly high (almost like a old fashioned gas pump, the tops of the numbers have scrolled around to the bottom of the bar) see attached. Also, don't forget to update your pre-built settings files before this becomes 1.6 ;) Everything on the bottom half is overlapping the new bar and needs to be moved up. Easy enough to fix manually though.

Yeah, I'm having the drag to inventory problem too.

Those pesky Smooth fonts!

I for one don't use them and the UIBuilder does not emulate them :(

However I did fix this yesterday, but have yet to update anything.

Not sure about updating the UI file because I'm not sure how many people want that bar - I only did it because I was asked in game by 1 person if I could do it.

Wow thanks a lot Taco - what program did you use to edit the font file ?

I dont like the new bar... I have removed it myself.. cant see what its for :)

Thanks a lot, its perfect :)

Hey Profit i have a good question for you... How come when i'm on my Gnome Brusier who is lvl34 my own Health and my hargets health Numbers and percentage are white just like the mana bars and your screen shots but on my 49 assassin are they green? maybe u can look into it its no big deal just kinda odd

That might be due to a common bug that occurs when you don't log fully out of the game to switch to a different character. When you start EQ2 fresh, the numbers and % should all be white or greyish white from the latest version of this UI. When you, say, log out to character select and back in, or use the .exe that bypasses the patcher and type your account name and password from there to return to the game, the numbers and % on your bars can turn green, or even dark red. I see this happen a lot, and while it's not so much game breaking, little inconsistancies like this can bug ya after a while.

font creator 5.0 Professional by high logic. I believe you can download a demo that is fully functionally for 30 days.

Where is the search for players button?

Where is the LFG button?

Am i totally missing it

Sorry, I never used the buttons.

I always just press Y for searching and /LFG to set Looking For Group.

ok thanks those will work, i looked in the control area but couldn't find the keys.

Great Mod, thanks for all the hard work. I run a res of 1920X1200 and only thing i needed to do is move stuff around :)

Have a great day

sorry for keeping bugging you but i cant see 6th member in this new compact horizontal.. *sobs

please fix it

Reiga,

I had the same problem with the horizontal group. I could only see 5. I had to unlock the window and resize it to allow me to see the 6th member. Worked fine after that.

*edit* I was using the standard horizontal from Profit, not any special version he may have added afterwards. I apologize if this doesn't apply to this other version.

Profit,

I did take a screenshot last night, but need to find somewhere to post it. I hope to add it soon.

Having played again, I think I found the pattern. If you are logged in on a toon and target an NPC, say the "Storyteller" from Splitpaw, then log out and login as a new toon, that NPC's name is now stuck forever in the "Target" label instead of the word target at the top. I suppose it is minor, but I just thought I would let you know.

As a request, is there anyway to put the current target's name up there where "Target" displays? It's just nice to see the name up there as it might be easier to see than the name below. Name in both places would be grand.

Thank you for all your hard work on this great UI!

There are known bugs with text and colors when camping to character select and logging back in.

I always /exit to change - sorry, but I cannot fix a Sony bug :(

I understand, thank you for the reply.

Would it be possible to change the word "Target" to the actual target's name at top when targetted?

Thanks!

Normally I wouldn't rant on someone's post but it's just frustrating sometimes to see people post post stuff like this with very little information. Did you try resizing the window? You might have to unlock the window to resize it. Can do this easily by right clicking and selecting window options then unchecking locked and pressing ok. What version ini and resolution are you using?

love it...
 

havent downloaded ui yet.. was wondering how it looks in 1600x1400... does it mess up windows? or have spaces between windows? soon as i know it works would love to try it out...

1600 is the width of the screen, so it won't affect that aspect of the UI. The 1600x1200 mod on page 3/4/5 (can't remember) should work fine on your computer. You will just have more room between the UI pieces and your viewing area.

That's a good thing by the way.. :)

you can post it here, just use put it as an attachment. look in the additional options section(its below the box you type in) when you are making a post you should see a manage attachements button.

Awesome
 

i have been using nightfall since it came out and decided to try this one. I love it and would like to thank you for the hard work. would like to make some suggestions and see how they are received.

Instead of being able to follow from the group window could that be made an assist key?

Your start button. Could you go and make it have the settings for illusion, showhood, bags, nightvision etc etc all the usual ones most start buttons have started having. and could you add the complete graphic settings high quality to high performance.

and this is something that i have learned to love it is the fetish inventory sizeable collapsable etc could you make one similar that fits your ui style?

these are kinda personal things but maybe others would like them too.

Love the ui bud i didn't think i would ever leave fetish but you finally got me i kept watching your updates and trying it after each one and finally came to love it.

Vigilo 49 inq oggok
Mezmerize 41 coercer oggok :) :) :)

well, im not a fool. what i was saying about was the compact size of horizontal one and of course, i tried to resize it but it didnt work either.
i had no problem with full size horizontal one.
why you are so sure that i didnt even try resize or something else i could do?
i did everything i could before i posted here.

he wasnt saying that you didnt try it, it think what he was saying was you didnt say what you had tried to fix it. because if they know what you tried to do to fix it, it can usually narrow down the problem when they try to figure out what the problem is thats all.

I dont want this to turn into a flame war(this isnt the soe forums...LOL) it was just a misunderstanding; im sure profit will fix it when he gets a chance to look at it.

Screen
 

Here is the screenshot attached. I know Profit states it's a Sony bug, but I just puttin it up cuz I said I would. heh.

the word Target is replaced with some NPC name from your previous toon you were logged in as previously.

Ok, that compact group looks poo - never tried it myself - will look at it again.

Please turn off your letter box - it's destroying the UI !!!

Wow that "Target" bug is odd - I will look in to that - should never happen - supposed to be a static piece of text!

I love this UI :)

1 thing though. Chat windows without tabs leave the upper area transparent. As it is seen on the piece of screenshot I included. Can this be fixed somehow? :)

Note: I am not the author of this ui (just to avaid any confusion)

it can be fixed...i know its possible i ran into this problem along time ago when i was working on a chat window mod. mainly the only point this post has is yes, there is a way to fix it, its just a matter of when profit has a chance to do it.

New eq2.uisettings file?
 

Hello Profit props on the UI it is my new favorite been tinkering with it for the last few days.

Installed the 1.5e update with the botom stat bar. I can't seem to get my lower windows to move up the same way you did in the pic.

Could you please post your ui settings file with the lower bar visible?

If you are working on putting this into the next version I will be patient. :D

Thanks :)

Try unlocking the hot bars !
