Also thought of a few other things it could be. After talking to many people, reloading this UI 3times, drivers for well everything I decided to start from square 1. I bought a new Vcard and reloaded windowsXP and SP2 with all updates for everything and even reloaded eq2 which the update only took 5 hours lol. I played the game with default ui and all was well (except for getting used to crappy UI). So I then decided time to reload eXui. All was good in my house, around town and a few zones. Did some solo writs in Lava, everfrost and then packed my bags for Sinking sands. 3 mins into Sinking Sands--- BAM ZAM DANG WAMM..back to desktop.


Any Ideas. I have to run 1280x 1024. because monitor cant go any higher. that's really the only other pieace of info i can give.

I am sorry you had to do through all that as I hate reinstalling windows and all but I do once a year because who knows what all my kids install on it. lol

Any way sadly eXtreme is a memory hog and will crash you if your computer starts choking. I am frantically working on moving all of eXtreme styles to replace SOE styles. At the time the UI has eXtreme styles and SOE styles.

I did it this way so if SOE added something it could all flow, but now have come to be leave its not worth the trade off. SOoo Hopefully by LU17 is out and they don't change to many things I'll have this all converted cut the memory use by more then half. Also doing it this way will allow you to just drop any any mode and it will be auto skinned with out having to do much of any thing. The hard part is matching extreme's widgets with SOE widget size. But I'm getting there.
