Unhappy Problems With Fetish Classic

I have an NVIDIA GeForce4 TI 4200 video card that supports screen resolutions up to 1024 X 768. This makes the screen very crowded when trying to get all the things I need to have on the screen at once.

So I thought that if I could find a custom UI, it might allow me to do things like have smaller hotkey bars, etc. I find that with my shaman I pretty much need to have five bars of hot keys open at the same time or I begin to have to sacrifice useable spells/abilities because I don't have enough room for them on the screen.

I downloaded and installed the updated full release Fetish Classic per your instructions with no problems or surprises. Everything installed easily and appeared to work on the first try.

But then I noticed several apparently unfixable major bugs with my istallation. For example, the quest window is empty of quests, although it should be practically full. The skills window is also empty. The self-target health/power window is blank, dark and empty. As are the main target window and the persona window. There may be one or two other windows in a similar state of unuseability. I tried to adjust them but was unsuccessfull.

The guild information window and the inventory window appeared to be fine, as did the inventory bag windows. Although, the system did crash once when attempting to minimize the inventory window. However, there were no further crashes after that first one.

Also on the plus side, the hotkey bars were indeed smaller and appeared to work perectly. Which is the driving reason I'm trying to find a custom UI in the first place.

I tried to copy the ...mainhud.hotkey... file from the new UI\Fetish directory to the old UI\default directory and then switched back to the original UI. But when I did the hot keys were still large in spite of bringing their UI file over . The rest of the default UI appeared unchanged from the original distribution UI as well.

I would appreciate any help you could give me in getting the Fetish UI to work, or at least getting just the hotkey bars resized to the Fetish size with the rest of the screen being original distribution default UI.

Thanks.
