Landliin - the installer was very sweet indeed, i also like the extra touch of the map updating too :)

very sweet. I've notice one problem though - you can't change the names of the tabs.... (and it logs into a chat group or something automaticaly)

now to get used to the new look...

Thanks authors for the update :)

I tried to install the lastest version (2.13) today. When install to
select the user ui setting. No matter I select any one, the procedure
will ask me to select an valid user ui setting file.

Could you kindly to upload the ui setting file including all resolutions as the hotfix?

Thanks :)

after selecting what the resalution you use, you also need to select the character's ui settings file that you will be using via the the brows for the file box just under where you selected the resalution.

for an example mine is steamfont_landiin_eq2_uisettings or sellect I'll use my own in the resalution section and no uisettings file will be installed and it will be up to u to place all windows.

You can't changed the names of the tab? Hmm verry odd, I'll check into that when I get home tonight..

Grr I forgot to leave that channel when making the settings file:(

do this /listchannels then see what number dragan. Lets say its channel 2, do /leavechannel 2 and it should take you out.

Landiin 09-06-2005 09:38 AM

Hmm down to 4 stars again:( So what is it you don't like about the UI?

Chaddwick 09-06-2005 10:02 AM

group healt
 
yea i have had the same problem with my groups health cant see it. all i get is the group members power. the health bar is blank. how do i change the guild logo?

remma 09-06-2005 11:25 AM

Landiin, you are a GOD, thank you soooo much v2 is awesome.

I love the new look, there are a couple of flaws I've noted.
Firstly the guild window, I'm unable to make anyone a patron, just can't the button anywhere.
Secondly I'm on beta, there's a new feature in the knowledge book that allows you to sort it by various categories, unfortunately there's no button for it in eXtreme :(
The only feature I don't personally like about your interface is the vertical heroic opp window, I swap it out for your older one

Slyy 09-06-2005 11:27 AM

what is that first picture on the dl page is that one of the colors on the 25 color pack if so witch one? the tread plate looking one

In beta there are no patrons, this ui was based off what the current ui is for beta so that way he doesnt have to do another redesign in a week.

Dont think its in the color pack this is a custom one that he uses himself. If you ask nicely I bet he will give it up...<cough> I want it also so give it up! :nana: :nana:

Again it might be linked to how the hp bar is beta atm... I havent logged in to beta to look but I will and double check.

How is the installer working? I only was able to test it on a XP pro box(mine)
Worked fine on both my XP machines.

Lets say its channel 2, do /leavechannel 2 and it should take you out.
if its a fresh install it will be /leavechannel 1 and then you can just remove that tab from your window box by right click -> remove tab

thanks again for the guildwindow anchor fix =P
Also in the installer you think you can add the diffrent color choices? (Dunno if your limited by size restriction or what not, maybe some more of those custom industrial looking ones in a few diff shades also?

No, its what I made playing around with textures. If you want it I'll post it. but it verry light and some of the white words are not so easy to see, you can still see them though. I liked it but figured I would go with somthing easier on the eyes for release.

I would but we are limited on how big the download file is. I guess I could code in the option if the user wants the installer could download the pack and install the skin of choice. Sound good?

bakes 09-06-2005 12:24 PM

okay the guild window not completly fixed yet =(.... You only locked down the "My Status" need to lock down the "Guild Status" also it shows my guild lvl as 20 when we are 28?

i have been useing profit ui and tried yours and the screen isn't coming up properly as far as where the windows are and i did chose a uisettings file and tried that char. i'm missing an one of the chat windows so i only have one. i quess the question is do i have something i need to get ride of from the profit ui that i might not be aware of? i have seen this come up with anyone else on here so thinking its on my end.

When you say the screen isn't coming up properly, do you mean the windows are not aligned like they are shown in the screen shots? ( not talking about the missing chat window) If you could post a screen shot noteing what resalution you use, and the one you picked from the installer. Aslo post the contents of you eq2.ini file.(located inside your main eq2 folder)

Na, you shouldn't have to do any thing with the profit ui, the installer should over write your current eq2.ini. I'll install some other UI's tonight and see if it overwrites every thing like it should, I really didn't test that aspect of the installer.

If you find any thing else post, nothing is to small or u can't be to picky for me, its the little things that make a UI good.

Landiin 09-06-2005 07:50 PM

Any one in beta want to send me the file eq2ui_mainhud_knowladge.xml out of there beta default ui folder? I keep hearing about this new sort by dropdown that isn't on test yet.. Just email it to me or post it zipped up in this thred.

Thanks

There is the "new DoF" files.


Also, I cannot get the damn ol' installer to work on my thing.
It always comes up with "select valid ui_settings.ini"

Nothing I do works.
And if I use the "select my own", everything is super jumbled.

My last UIs were ProfitUI and your UI.

violaprimus 09-06-2005 08:06 PM

I will be honest...

I hate the installer. Who/what possessed you to have the THX theme.


I had my speakers (all 5 of them) going at full blast. Damn, I didn't have even a couple of seconds to get the remote.


Plus, your installer isn't working AT ALL for me.

Hi!

I normally use the Profit ui since it came out, but I also like playing around and switching between different ui's. Makes playing EQ2 a whole lot more fun. Just to bad I dont know anything myself about coding and such.

Anyway, I got a request if it's possible. On the screenshot that I added I've made an alteration with boxed in frames. Basically a switch of 2 windows. You had the group window set at the bottom of the screen, I moved it up. And I moved that Buff window that was up there down to where the group window was located.
So, what I wonder is if it would be possible for you to make an option available with a skinned group window to fit where I placed the yellow marker (Or however you would wanna draw it of course) :) on the top screen? And reskin the Buff window into a box basically the form as the group window has now so it fits in the bottom part. :)

Oh, and I noticed a cosmetic bug. When you hover over the invite target button in the group window. Invite is misspelled. Says Infite. Just a typo. :)

And, I've tried to setup my own chat tabs, but it won't let me name them.

Other than that, it's an awesome UI. :) Very, very well done. :)

You MUST use the text box on that page of the installer to braws AND select the characters ui settings file If you wan the installer to set it up for you, simply just dotting the option will not work. You characters ui settings file is in you main eq2 directory and looks somthing like servername_charactername_eq2_uisettings.ini.

Sorry,

I happen to like the sound of the THX them, sounds kick ass on my system.

I guess its working to some degree being it played the THX theme. Whats it not doing that leads you to think its broke?
