Default eq2ui_mainhud_startbutton.xml

Hello Jaxel,

I had originally posted back on page 14 of the OCD Complete support forum how after LU14 the startbutton mod (eq2ui_mainhud_startbutton.xml) no longer worked, and that doing "Alt ~" didn't bring it back.

The only solution I could find was to replace the file with the one from the LU13 version of OCD Complete, as that was when it worked last.

After downloading 14.1 version and doing a "clean" install of the LU15 version of OCD complete and having it still not work, I got a little frustrated.


I realized somewhere there might be a problem in the code of the between the new version of the eq2ui_mainhud_startbutton.xml and the old one.

So, I opened it up both versions in that handy little Beyond Compare program and found a couple things different on the very first line.
One thing looked like the problem:

Line one of the new xml reads:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Page AbsorbsInput="false" Alwaysontop="true" eq2usescomwndcontrols="true" Location="770,114" MaximumSize="200,50" Name="StartButton" OnHide="visible=true" OnShow="hide_window=(MainHUD.Inventory)" PackLocation="left,bottom" PackLocationProp="0770/0001,-654/0001" ScrollExtent="200,50" Size="200,50" UserMovable="true">

If I change it to read:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Page AbsorbsInput="false" Alwaysontop="true" eq2usescomwndcontrols="true" Location="770,114" MaximumSize="200,50" Name="StartButton" OnHide="visible=true" OnShow="hide_window MainHUD.Inventory" PackLocation="left,bottom" PackLocationProp="0770/0001,-654/0001" ScrollExtent="200,50" Size="200,50" UserMovable="true">

The Startbutton window loads fine.

I did find while "Alt ~" didn't work, if I type "hide_window MainHUD.Startbutton" it brings the window up, but it also brings up another little EQ2 button and I have to do it everytime I log in. Changing that 1st line however makes it so I don't have to do that, It's there when I log in evertime now and on every character.


One thing I have noticed, and haven't attempted to fix yet, are the buttons for the different video quality settings and the custom preset don't show a graphic, they are just white, as shown in my pic below:





Keep up the good work, I really do love the UI.



EDIT:
I found the problem with the images.
Changing the corresponding lines from Source="images/jaxel_widgets.dds" to Source="images/widgets.dds"
fixed the problem.

Here is the eq2ui_mainhud_startbutton.xml file from the LU15 version of OCD Complete as I have modified it. You can, if you wish, run a comparison and see the changes I have made to it, and anyone else who is having the same problems can feel free to download it to fix those problems.
