Same Problem every time with Maintained Mods.
 

(Mellani is my character that i play as)

I'm having the same problem with maintained mods Ive used these 6 maintained mods:

SageUI Maintained

Arre30EffectsMaintained

Godattes Maintained Spells

Mother's Maintained Spells

Geniva's Profit Maintained Slim (Reversed)

Profit Maintained Spell Window - Lite (Modified by Kenshiro)

And the problem is this:
After a fresh UI Start (Deleting the runnyeye_mellani_eq2_uisettings.ini) When i login the mod show fine and alright but if i quit the game then re log the maintained window has totally vanished! It just disappears cant see it cant find it to right click it nothing this happens with every single one of those 6 mods the only way to make it appear again is by deleting the runnyeye_mellani_eq2_uisettings.ini but even if you do do that then it would just dissapear again after you quit then log back in!

Someone please help i really dont understand this at all!

Please Please Help!

Not sure why it would disappear but the shortcut for bringing it back is Alt+M.

Alt+M does nothing

BUMP BUMP Someone please help!!!

F10 will cycle through three steps that toggle various UI settings...."Normal" view (any transparency/opacity settings are used), "Full On" (all active/open windows are shown at full view regardless what custom transparency/opacity settins are in place), and "Nothing" (no UI is shown, just game/world graphics).

Try going into the second view mentioned above. Perhaps that will allow you to see the maintained window. Then check the transparency/opacity settings on it. Maybe somehow/someway the settings on the window are being changed (which, I admit, is extremely peculiar....seeing that only one window is being affected and not the whole UI).

/shrug

Well this is odd its happening with the default Maintained menu as well! Ill try that F10 thing.

I tryed the F10 thing and like i said it has completely Vanished! Whats going off?

Sounds like perhaps your maintained window found its way off screen. There is a setting in the game options that controls whether or not windows can be off the screen.

Ill try that be back soon to post results

Tryed that its still vanished any other advice?

Ummmmm..........uninstall/reinstall the game?

I know it's a pretty drastic measure to take, but I can't think of anything else at the moment.

:( Fine sadly

Reinstalling the game is not necessary!

To be sure that it's not your files delete the entire UI folder and also make a full file scan from the patcher (this will delete any interfering UI files you may have and also ensure that all your game files are up to date).

If that still doesn't help, if you want post your UIsettings here, I can then take a quick look and tell you where your maintained window went. ;)

I already have reinstalled just got to wait 2 and a half hours for it to patch ;) But if this doesnt work then ill go your way

Taking the piss i reinstalled it and it still has dissapeared! Im going to delete the Ui file and then try!

Ok Ive just tested something if i don't move the maintained window then it does not disappear but if i move it even one centimeter then it would disappear when i re log any advice? :(

Edit: And now for some reason Himays Target windows aint wanting to work! This is really pissing me off and making me want to quit EQ2 ive only played for 3 frekin days!

The only things i can think of is to check options in
user inteface / game windows
Keep main HUD windows visible = ticked
allow windows offscreen = unticked

Also when you uninstalled / reinstalled, did you delete the eq2 directory?
As windows uninstaller usually leaves cfg files etc intact and could still be using those.

Another check, make sure no files are read only, prolly not, but worth checking.

If still no luck, then post the uisettings as per gm9, hopefully he can sort it out )

good luck.

Ill try that and what do you mean by Ui settings?

Edit:It didnt work it vanished again and ill say again what do you mean by Uisettings?

Edit 2:Ok i tested something what i did what install ProfitUI Reborn logged in then quit then reloged and found out the Maintained bar didn't disappear i really dont get why any advice and what do you mean by Uisettings?

The uisettings file being referred to is your CHARACTER_SERVER_eq2_uisettings.ini file (mine, for example, would look like ulcifer_mistmoore_eq2_uisettings.ini) located in your base eq2 directory.

Here it is (It was origanly a .ini file but it wouldnt upload that type of file

What do you think then?

I'm still at work. I'll look at your file once I get to it.

Until then use ProfitUI, as you said that works fine for you. :D

Lol .. a shameless plug there GM9 ;)

Actualy I have had the same problem before and the only thing that fixed it was deleteing the char settings file... and that happend quite a while back not just recently I might add.. And at the time I was switching UI's other than my own, to try them first hand rather than look at code and pictures, When I reverted back to default and also my own I lost the maintained window.. I think maybe it just could happen from doing that in rare cases...

Either way deleting the char settings file sorted the problem for me at least.

Look at pos $FD8E in that file. If you take that pos AND it with $FFFF then make sure the the value at the calculated pos is the same as the one at $FD8E. If it is not something is wrong because it has to be the same value.

(yes I've been looking at code to long, I'm losing it.)

You have totally lost me explain in layman's terms please Ive only played the game for 4 days im not a whiz at this????

Sorry Tooplex, ignore my rambling.. but being you asked; ($FD8E AND $FFFF) = $FD8E, thus the value at $FD8E is the same as the value at ($FD8E AND $FFFF) and if it isn't then there is a problem :P again ignore me, it's been a long day :eek:
