great, its runing, thx chop

well today i added some stuff i think Profit left out it is just cosmetic. the title bars for windows are now the same as the rest of the bars Pofit used in the ui. also i think i said this before but im not keen on the gold so i am including a silver version of everthing. just unzip the files to UI\ProfitUI\images and over write the ones that are there if you want them and there is one icon file you have to put in the icon folder in the images folder. and im glad you like the bottom bar working again if you want anything else or for those that dont use haste and dps let me know what you would like and ill try to add it. i will be touching the title bars up a bit this weekend or when my server comes down for merger. touched up the silver a bit still needs some work. ok since someone took the gold before the silver i fixed the gold as well.

Only 1 bug I found in this. If you have over 9,999 status, it doesn't display the whole thing, it scrolls down to another line.

Example -----

Status : 1,323,
011

what rez are you running it at? i set it up so it will work in 1280x1024. ill check it out and see if i can get it to work right if i resize the bar. i aslo tried it in 1024x786 and it worked right. this is the lowest my screen rez will go so im sorry i cant check it out any lower here is what mine looks like.

Chat text in Main chat window scrolling up leaving a blank window (
 

Hi all,

I am hoping someone can take a look at this and maybe lend some advice or a fix. Kinda hard to describe so I will do my best:

Basically when I log in I have the full text in the main chat windows. as time goes by (Fighting etc..) I notice the window is blank so I scroll up a bit and see the most recent text. Basically, for some reason, the bottom most line of text (Most recent text entered) has moved up and out of the window viewing area instead of at the very bottom of the window just above the line you enter commands.. Any new text is placed up and out of the viewing area of the main chat window.

It seems to come and go. It is much worse now since LU19. My second chat window seems to me ok though I do notice the bottom most line sometimes getting close to half way up the window but never past the top to where I cannot see any text..

This is getting very annoying and would not have posted if it wasn't happeing so much.

Re-Installing it does not seem to help..

Any help would be greatly appreciated.. Thanks ..

I REALLY like the silver, thanks. A lot.

About the bottom bar, I have tried redownloading it and it still doesnt work. Is there anything you can think of that I can check to try to get it working?

I have the same problem with bottom bar not showing.

hey guys im sorry about this. but nikecmh was right. for the heck of it i downloaded the one i posted and i did notices i put the wrong bottom bar file in there. the one that is there doesnt have the dps and haste on it. here is a new one that should work. i have also found if you are haveing problems with the bottom bar not showing up log out of the game and move your servername_player_eq2_uisettings.ini to another location and the game will make a new one ( you will have to move all of your windows around) but this might fix the problem.this also might fix the HO window problem some where having. let me know if this helps
Chop

In both cases the bar along the bottom was just a black box with nothing in it at all. If i play with the various opacities i can get it where i can barely see the blue bar but can see theres nothing on it. Any suggestions?

I believe you have to go to the window settings and select Frame or Frame and titlebar..

Same I tried out tamers mod and had issues with my hot bars even when i made a fresh ui settings file. Anyone had any luck with this? I had to go back to version D for now.

yea, I tried all the settings under that and none of them make it work.

Player window mod ( for user with large monitors )
 

Thought I'd post a small mod I made to Profits Player, Target, Implied Target window.

I run at 1600 x 1200 and the original was a bit small.

Changes:

1. Increased the size of the HP & Mana bars
2. Increased the font size for Target & Implied Target Names

NOTE: I run with frames off so I didn't bother changing them. If you have frames turned on for this window the HP & Mana bars will over lap them.

//null

Hmm thats what I did and the blue bar on top/bottom appeared (

Can someone take a look at this please when time permits? .. Appreciate it..

This is not a problem with this UI... i had it happening with Fetish for a while before i switched to this UI.... and had it happen a little with this UI too... but seems to have cleared up a while ago .... about the time i added more memory to my system, not sure what else to say as i am not a developer on any UI... but i Love some of the UIs i find around here.

ok understand.. Guess I will just have to live with it.. I have 1 Gig ram..

Thanks for the info.. :-)

Just wanted to pop in and note that I got my bottom bar working by renaming my Profit directory and starting from scratch with the Profite Chop posted, and putting the bottom bar he posted after that in there. I then added back in all my non-profit pieces (silverwolfs journal, mook zoning, hotbar i like better, etc) and the bottom bar works fine now. Wish I knew what was causing it though.

By the way, have i mentioned how much I like the silver replacement graphics? Thanks again Chop.

you know that is one thing i might have forgotten to mention you should start with a fresh install of profitui to get the bottom bar working. not sure why but glad it is working for you and the silver is know big deal i have been running mine silver for quite a while now and just thought i would share my files that made it all silver.

Is it possible you could add the run speed to the bottom bar? At 1280x1024 theres still quite a lot of room available down there.

sure i could add that in what side would you like it on the right or the left? let me know and ill get to it later today
chop

Ok, well while you are taking requests :)

Heres what I would LIKE to see. Currently the bottom bar is arranged strangely, It goes: Atk, Avoid, Haste, <space> resists <space> DPS. Status, Parry

I think all of the combat stuff should be together and the status and run should be on the other side.

Status, Run, <space> resists <space> haste, dps, atk, avoid, parry

This is the way that makes most sense to me.

Also :) The way I have my screen arranged, I have my group window on the RIGHT side of the screen, and as such i have to keep my infection indicators hidden or my group ends up well inside the edge. Could it be possible that you could move the little infection indicators to the RIGHT side of the group members? That would rock.

Last, but not necessarily least, the combat indicator that another guy hacked in the player window works but its kinda small and sometimes hard to find in the heat of battle. Is there anything you can do to make it easier to see? Make the whole player window border flash, or the implied target border, or something?

Anyway, these are just requests any you cant do or dont feel like doing, dont. I really appreciate what you have done this far :)

The silver looks great chop, I've always disliked the gold theme. It's just too bad there are so many brown and beige UI elements and fonts nestled into the default UI that one would have to do a Fetish scale reskin to truly eliminate the browns.

Anyhoo, I like the bigger player window bars/font too. I was wondering if lollygager might be able to add the little flashing sword auto-attack indicator that somebody modded into the player window a few pages back in the thread. I had gotten used to having the attack indicator back in sight, it's a big help

Thanks

Hello all those that are sustaining ProfitUI. I have a suggestion for all of you. Since it would apear that Profit has moved on and all of you are doing work to keep this UI on life support. Why don't you folks take it and give it proper justice and Re-release it as new? I found the new ProfitUI e was itt but then there is alot of other parts in other posts here. I'd suggest re-release it make a new discussion thread so that all the changes can be seen in one post and if you re-release allow for patches to be submitted by others. I'm getting so confused as it is right now. This is a good UI and you all are doing great work! Thanks

I agree with the above poster. This thread is awfully long now, with issues, fixes, modifications and work-arounds scattered all over since Profit's disappearance. It'd be fantastic if one of you dedicated folks keeping this UI alive could make a re-release Profit thread :D. You could link the latest full download, along with any other mods released since by various individuals.
Of course it's easier said than done, and a bit more time consuming than I'd be able to handle, but I'm sure it'd be appreciated!

Auto-attack indicator added
 

Per Eloora's request to my player window mod, I've added the blinking auto-attack indicator.

//lollygagger

Perfect, thanks lollygagger :)

Upload a new file with a new name to the Complete Sets download area and upload the current add-ons in the patches area for that new UI. Then you can start a new thread for support for the 'community maintained' version.

Call it ProfitUI Lives! or Return of the ProfitUI or ProfitUI Revisited, you get the idea. 8)

Hotkey Identifiers
 

Just a note:

The allow dragging and set icon size items do work in the fix, but the ability to see the hotkey identifiers (1 Ctrl-1 Alt-1 etc.) when you select view frame and titlebars doesn't work any longer, at least it doesn't for me, and I've tried both the 50% and 100% sets. Suggestions?

Just installed the "e" version with the bottom bar thing and it looks great! and yea.. I dont see the numbers on the hotkey's anymore.. Never noticed it till I read the post just above this one...

Can someone please take a look at it.. Thanks

This UI looks amazing. I am new to EQ2 and I saw a screenshot of this UI and started to look into how to get ahold of it. Now I read that it is not supported by its original creator anymore, and that some new people are bringing it back alive. I would love if you could do a "official" release of it so I know what to download. Make a new post as some has suggested calling it "ProfitUIRevamped" or something.

Looking forward to using this UI.

Is it possible to extract the lower part "Target / Implied Target" bar and the Cast bar? I love those and would like to add those to my current UI. Anyone know what files I need to extract to be able to do that?



I am using ThorUI as my UI atm.

Thanks in Advance,
//Nin

Simple
 

"Target / Implied Target" bar -> eq2ui_mainhud_player.xml
Cast bar -> eq2ui_mainhud_casting.xml

You can find these files at Profit UI Folder

Select these files .. copy & paste (overwrite yes~) to your UI Folder

Thanks for the very fast reply Drunken. I appreciate it. And I got the bars in place. :)

However, their was no texture for it, so I managed to find the profit.tga file in images and I put in place. Now I got a texture, but it doesn't look like the anything in the picture I posted and it doesn't animate when casting or show any health updates, and there are no number either.

It looks to be a bit more complex. :/

//Nin

Try the following :

in EQ2ui.xml in your custom ui folder put the following line :

<include>_ProfitStyles.xml</include>

also copy _ProfitStyles.xml into this folder

Some additional info on this.. it appears as if the hotkeys are cutoff on the bottom a bit. Maybe that is why the numbers are not showing up..

Just a thought

Really missin' the hotkey numbers, lol

OMG it worked perfectly! A big thanks goes out to Drunken and Beldin for their quick and easy to understand help. :)

I have been AFK some time, and I see many good people is working to make this UI work again, thanks :nana:

Is there a download with all updates so far? and is the UI working with all the server upgrades? and will it be prepared to new PvP servers when they go live?

Thanks

Youcan download the "e" version that someone posted in this thread and also some additinoal files that were posted that have variosu efects.. I would suspect a full new release will show up in the download section eventually.

Thats what I did.. Worked perfectly..
