Multiple Characters

Hi All! Great resources. Contract just ran out, so I may just have to load a few of the xml and edit... or even <gasp!> play with the uibuilder Sony gave us. (Sidebar, any preference from the folks who play with these??)
I run multiple toons. They have different needs. My Coercer doesn't need the Tracking window my Brigand uses anymore than the Shadowknight ( I hope for the future on her.... ) needs a large easy maintained buffs window.
In EQ1, yes I know the mantra, but old habits die hard... I could specify a different UI folder for each toon to fill this need.
Is there a concurrent method for me to implement here? The eq2.ini file makes a global change, and while some elements would be a global desire, like the exp bar or bag/bank mods... I do have a couple specific needs. Any one???

I too would like to start with different interfaces for different things. I would like one interface for tradeskilling vs adventuring.

Eventually, once /loadui is fixed, this should become a reality. For the moment all characters must use the same custom profile.

IF they fix it :P

It would be so very wonderful but I dont think its very high on the list... with new content coming out it will get bumped down further I would imagine...

/shrug One can always hope! /crossfingers

Only way to do it at this time is to run each character from a different install folder of EQ2.

Or put some scripts in to have the same window look different for different characters based on the window's titlebar setting... But that would be long and painful and you'd only get two settings per window.

you could actually pull off three but youre right it would be long and painful and probably not what he wants anyway
