Changes incoming!
Rest up because you're most likely going to have a lot of work to do when GU57 hits test server in just over a week!
I can't go into a lot of detail right now, but we've made some pretty big UI changes for 57. The default UI is getting a re-skin and many windows have been modified.
We'll post more when we can.

Don't know whether to go YAY or BOO cuz I don't want to see Profit broken but I know the need for LUA is great and fearing thats what this is. Since gm9 no longer writes/maintains Profit I'm sure its gonna need a complete rewrite and will take major work on whoever is doing it.

I would hope LUA is incoming but from his announcement it sounds like it won't be quite that major.

Yay for UI changes (updates?). I feel like the UI has been so neglected these past few months!

I hope you've got auto-filtering for quest POIs for active quests on that list Rothgar, or I'm gonna have to chase you down at FanFaire

Oh lord, Another LU 13 where every thing changed and every UI was broke. I hated that time (mostly because I am a lazy bastard). IF real scripting comes with the changes cool if not blah, but cool the UI is getting a much needed revamp. /bow Rothgar for your on going work.

Thanks for the heads up Rothgar. Can't wait to see whats in store when it hits the test server.
Lua is already coming to lotro, wouldn't be surprised if it comes to EQ2 in the distant future.

I'm gonna assume there's more to this than a simple re-skin of the default UI. Least I'd hope SOE wouldn't impose major custom UI breakage just for cosmetic changes.
Looking forward to new cool stuff to play with. As Drum mentioned... not much action on the UI front in months.

Doesnt sound like LUA, but man that would be sweet if they do ever make that change.
Love it or hate it, WoW UI modding brings a tremendous amount of flexibility and customization options.
I would guess the biggest hurdle is the number of problems this could expose. The UI to client interface might not be as clean as needed to give players direct access. And protecting against mods that "play the game for you" also takes time and energy.
If not built properly, LUA enabled mods would quickly be deciding which ability to cast next for maximum DPS, or who to target and heal next, with which heal, etc. WoW struggled with this for a while but eventually overcame it. I know, i built a few mods that exactly these things
All that said, I would LOVE to see LUA powered mods for EQ2 in the future. I believe its one of the greatest features of WoW, one that truly makes the experience a notch above any other MMOs.

Are you mentally disabled as well? The comment that offended you was obviously a joke and was a very light hearted way of telling you that your comment was irrelevant since the change you were talking about occurred two years ago. The developer that posted this thread has since moved on to other things.

It's usually best to ignore thread necros and rants of this type, or just hit the report button as someone did.
Also hi guys, haven't been around here much recently, but can still close threads down, which I'm doing now, since this is going nowhere good.
