Just a thought...

Hotkey Window
 
1 Attachment(s)
Here is the hotkey window I made to use with ProfitUI since the text labels on the included on did not work. I actually like this more, since it takes up less screen room.

This one is laid out with the bank selectors in the bottom right, but hidable via turning off Frames. The text labels are not hidable like the original ProfitUI, but that should not be an issue for those that with to use this.

Drunder40 02-17-2006 11:12 AM

Thanks a bunch.. Ill give it a try tonite.. !!!

winterz 02-17-2006 03:45 PM

Thanks for the update, however it's messing mine up a bit. I'll let the screenshot tell the rest.

Basically when I loaded the game up it placed almost a 2-hotkey-length gap between the last hotkey and the scroll arrows. I tried adjusting the width, but it always snaps the arrows into the last hotkey, thereby overlapping it.

This something I have set up incorrectly?

The good news is: at least the text overlays work! :p

Spiricore 02-17-2006 05:20 PM

Oh, also, I'd really like to see quest rewards in the journal as well. Would be *very* helpful. If I knew how to go about it myself, I'd do it and upload it ;\

The bank selector buttons are suppose to overlap to conserve space.
I keep my selector buttons turned off and use Shift+#, Alt+shift+#, and ctrl+shift+# to change banks.

The dead space you get at the end will disappear by unlocking the window, and grabbing the edge like you wish to resize it. Just grab and let go and it should snap to the buttons.
The icon resizing works, so if you would rather fill up the gaps, you can do so.

Hope this helps.

Is Profit still working on this UI, as it's beginning to break down with the recent LU's and 20 sees another revamp incoming.

Would hate to have to change UI's alll overr again...:(

No Profit is not working on this any longer, the user community has been working on updating the UI.

Right now, if you browse through this threads posts, you will find a 95% working version all zipped into one package (18e) and following that , some patches for it to fix some bugs.

Jaradcel 02-18-2006 10:45 AM

Ach. My thanks. I'll browse through this thread then.

Dechau 02-18-2006 05:03 PM

Would really LOVE to see af download version with all the new stuff addet, cant we get one of you guys to "take over" while Profit is away ?

I know its prolly alot of work, but this is one of THE BEST UI's out there, and it would be a shame if it was lost now..

Thnx :cool:

Taznafein 02-18-2006 07:41 PM

Bottom Bar
 
I really like the bottom bar of this UI, what do I need to add it to my current UI?

Thanks

Spiricore 02-21-2006 10:53 PM

Still goin' strong through LU20. :nana:


Edit: Oh and Mortis, I noticed that the modification you made to the hotkeys (got it working btw, thanks) doesnt allow the border's opacity to be adjusted. Is it just me, or was it coded that way? I have a few bars I'd like to just see the buttons for and hide the empty spaces entirely between them.

Jaradcel 02-22-2006 02:28 AM

Good to know it is.

Does anyone notice if the journal UI lately always sets itself to "open and display all" on start up? Kinda annoying.....

labrat 02-22-2006 03:35 AM

yeah journal is set to all open when i first open or after i zone

Drunder40 02-22-2006 07:55 AM

Possible new feature for this UI?
 
This came to me when I rolled a pet class about a month ago.

My wife plays a healer and we both use this UI and currently there is no way for her to visually see (In the group window) when my pet needs a heal.

True she can just slide her cursor over the pet while in battle but she gets rather busy at times and a quick glance at the group window would be better.

If there is a way already to accomplish this then I apologize and would like to know how to do this without my wife having to target the pet specifically..

Not a huge problem but I think this would be a very beneficial feature. What ya think?

hylozoist 02-22-2006 11:22 AM

There's a small error when the game tries to show AA experience; since there's no setting (at least that I know of) for it, it overlaps with the normal experience bar. You have to re-cycle the experience bar to get it to show clearly.

Perhaps the AA experience can be added to the cycle, or taken out completely?

labrat 02-22-2006 11:50 AM

would be nice to have the aa xp added to the cycle of xp that the bar shows.

Spiricore 02-22-2006 07:19 PM

I'd like to see the Achievement xp on the xp bar as well
- pet health would be very nice being a healer class...almost necessary
- journal zones being expanded on open would be nice to disable (also, it randomly shows the zone I'm in at the top of the list..can be annoying)
- and lasty, being able to see quest rewards on the quest window

If I had even the slightest clue how to make these changes, I would, so I'm requesting them. Unless someone would like to mentor me. ;)

nemack 02-23-2006 03:34 AM

Great mod ...

On the screenshots on the main page for this UI your blue bar at the bottom has some statistics about avoidance/block/parry etc. I cant seem to find this anywhere built in. Is it a custom mod and do you remember the name of it?

Here is a the screenshot in question...

firecla 02-23-2006 04:57 AM

anyone else have these issues?
 
This is the best user interface bar none. I do hope profit maintains or someone else can fill in the gaps.

My issues.

-Blacked window everytime i try and gamble with the goblin. I can eventually mouse over the close window icon (even thou its black and i can't see it)

-Spell/ability book was given sort function awhile back. When i click on sort the Resulting window is black again i can get rid of it but only by blindly mousing over until i find the close window command.

-quest Journal - collections tab -the new feature given awhile back to examine an item and it will pull up what quest you can add it to. If no quests available your suppsed to be able to click the image icon of the item you just examined in the upper right hand corner and it resets the window so you can see all the collection quests you have going. Mine does not reset until i log out.

-Guild window MOTD - can't hit enter to drop down a line to write a seperate line of text.

-Hotbar icon dragging issue- i saw this was fixed by an appreciative and resourceful user of this UI /tips hat. Thank you

-New achievement window - The exp bar at the top does not show any progress.

-Target window(experience Window) Achievement Exp seems to show in the background of your Regular Exp.

-Can't think of more atm (since im at work)

Anyone know any solutions to these problems pls post or email me at [email protected]

Works fine for me, do you use any other mod'd windows not part of the ProfitUI normally?
As a fix, make sure that eq2ui_mainhud_lotto.xml is included in your eq2ui_mainhud.xml file.


-Spell/ability book was given sort function awhile back. When i click on sort the Resulting window is black again i can get rid of it but only by blindly mousing over until i find the close window command.
All my abilities sort fine for me in the knowledge book.

I don't use the included journal, so don't know.

Haven't tested this, I copy/paste my MOTDs from notepad.

ok everyone asked for them so here they are new bottom bar with run and all the goodies and aa xp where the other xp is. aa xp is yellow after adventure xp. the bottom bar is sorted run haste and status on right and atk avoid dps and pary on the left. hope you all like and they work good for you.
also if anyone is having problems with tooltips and skills window from my silver or gold mod just copy the files eq2ui_mainhud_skills.xml and eq2ui_inventory_examine.xml from your default folder to you ProfitUI folder.
nemack the blue bar on the bottom is the memorized file posted here. if you are checking it out in uibuilder look under xml help in the forums and you will see a post by me by the title of the file and that will tell you what to do to get it to show up

labrat 02-24-2006 01:14 AM

Chop

When hover pointer over items in my inventory, I see some double text over details.

says "description goes here"

I have tried to add the inventory_examine.xml from default to profit but it hasnt helped it

any ideas

chop 02-24-2006 03:19 AM

you know thanks for pointing that out i gave the wrong file for the tooltip it should be eq2ui_examine.xml. even though you changed that other file i dont think it will hurt anything if you have any problem ill post mine so you can fix it

firecla 02-24-2006 04:47 AM

thank you Mortis42 for your quick reply
 
thank you Mortis42 for your quick reply. I admit i posted before i had completely read all these forum posts 14 pages of posts and fixes and new files and fixes to those files. This is such a clean UI and best looking ive seen anywhere i really wish it could get organized and reposted all together.
Anyway I downloaded the "e" version and installed and all the issues corrected themselves.
However if anyone is not happy about the hotkey bars and wants a sizable hotbar that still has no dead space around the icons or to the left or right of the bar itself here is a link to the one i use. http://www.eq2interface.com/download...fo.php?id=4118

It does have a small border that turns silver if your using chops silver theme. Its also missing the arrows to switch hotbar number but i actually like this as i set them and leave them, and again its helps to eliminate the dead space.

Chop that silver theme rocks - Looks spectacular
Thank you for all the work on the individual windows that you have done at other users requests.


PLS PLS PLS - someone get all these things together and repost in the complete set section. As a very new user to these forums and this site it is very hard to find all that you need to enjoy the best of this UI and all the enhancements others have made.

yes pls, with a screenshot. I'm really confused.

I'm trying to use the default mainchat window almost all appears normal when i delete the profitui ver to allow the default to load expect i like the title bar style of the default and instead i see the (the really huge) titlebar of the profit UI. Thanks for your comments in advance.

chop 02-25-2006 11:39 AM

for the loc under the compass make sure you have frames turned on and it will show. for the chat you should be able to delete the chat file in the ui folder and it should work

I've made a new thread and compiled all of the information that's contained in the fourteen pages of this into 5 posts on the other. With the author's (and everybody in the development process') permission, could we get this thread locked so we can start that transition?

Thank you chop -

I got the compass to display /loc coords and the Clock to show your location (i.e. sinking sands) by turning on the frame and title bar. Other people may not realize this since they do not show by default.

The chat window i deleted as i stated above and i assume its using the default chat window however when i turn on frames and title bar the title bar appears in the profit format instead of the Eq2 default format. Do i need to delete any code from any files to get the titlebar to look like the stock eq2 main chat window?. The rest of the window looks like the default.

Thanks

I can not figure out how to install this UI. I really want to try it out, I love the look of it. Anyone that can explain this to me in basic terms would be soo appreciated. I have installed other UI's that do not have an auto installer but this opn has me stumped.

Thanx in advance,

When you extract the archive, extract it to your Everquest II directory. For me it was c:\program_files\Sony\Everquest2

That will place all the files/folders in their appropriate places..

I just installed this UI last night and wow what can I say.. SOOO much info right there infront of you.. I am very impressed.. Great work you all.. and thank-you soooo much for taking this UI and making it the wonderful UI that it is..

I really appreciate it :-)

Awesome UI, I've been using this for about 3-4 months now and love it. I did run into an issue yesterday though after LU21, is there an issue with the zone lockout timer window? mine shows up all black with no text :mad:

Add
<include>eq2ui_mainhud_zonereuse.xml</include>
into eq2ui_mainhud.xml to use Zone Reuse window. It will work.

In addition, you can use ProfitUI Reborn v2.0 instead old one.

First, let me say this is an amazing UI. I'm new to the ui front, and have been spending the last day or so tinkering with a few of them. Thus far, this is my favorite.

That being said, I do have one question. Is it possible to pick and choose certain features in conjunction with the default ui settings? Do you mind if your users pick and choose certain elements, and in doing so, do you forsee any problems? I ask because, having played with the original settings, I've become comfortable with them (even though they are not as advanced as your UI) I do really like how you've set up your XP bar though. I started tinkering with some of the files in the main profit18 directory and removed everthing accept the files "_ProfitStyles eq2ui eq2ui_mainhud_experience eq2ui_mainhud_map FontArial14T and the eq2map directory and images directory.

I loaded up EQ2 and everything works fine. I have all my old default settings for chat/inventory/character etc with the addition of your much improved xp bar. So far every thing is working fine and I've noticed nothing out of the ordinary. From your own first hand experience though, are there any files I should restore or more I should delete which are not necessary for the use of the xp bar alone. Is it recommended to do so, or is it an essential part of the whole UI? Also, do you plan to release the xp bar as a seperate download in the future?

I look forward to test driving so more of the features of this UI. Again, great work, and I look forward to seeing more from your team.

This probably going to sound pedantic and small.

But when I get a buff from heroic opportunity it is not showing in the maintained spell list. Is there an easy to get these to show on the left hand side?
