Default

My "EQ2Map" folder is inside my "customui" folder...my directory structure looks like this:

/EverQuest II
...../UI
........../customui
.............../eq2map
........../Default

The "Default" folder is where my default UI pieces are...this folder is checked by the EQ2 client each time it launches, and any non-default files will be overwritten.

The "customui" folder is where my custom UI pieces are...the client doesn't check this folder, and if a file exists here with the same name as a file in the "Default" folder, the client uses this file instead, overriding the default file.

In my EQ2Map settings, I have my custom UI folder set as "customui," not "EQ2Map." Once your "customui" folder exists, the EQ2Map updater will detect it and list it as an option in the "UI Directory" drop-down menu.

Make sure you change the contents of your "eq2.ini" file to reflect your new custom UI folder, rather than just the EQ2Map folder. (You can drag the EQ2Map folder into your new custom UI folder, so you don't have to re-download all the map files.)

Hope this helps!
