Thin Plater Window? [Example Included]

FenixStryk4 · #1 02-12-2005, 05:15 AM

I was wondering if it would be possible to make a player window similar to the one I made in MSPaint. Also, if a Target/ Implied Target could be made similar to this, it'd be great.

Is this possible?

Yes, it's very much possible.

Are you running Windows XP? If so, you can make this window yourself in UIBuilder without much more effort than it took to make that in Paint.

Just base it off a window that already has those text labels, and move stuff around. (And change WC_Frame's RStyleDefault to /Framestyles.single_pixel)

Hmm, I guess I'll see what I can do, but I'm pretty much a noob to UIBuilding

too easy.

make a folder next to default ui called myui
copy your mainhud_player.xml from default ui
copy eq2ui.xml, too.
do the ini file described in installation guide

open the builder, open the eq2ui.xml from your myui folder.

move the stuff around. resize the frame and save it.

its a pain in the butt to move the stuff around, i the window pretty much has no info, i can't really see anything in it.

mebbe you have to move it up. Select MainHUD.Player window in the tree and hit the ^ arrow that sits as a button above the tree

I like the mod, but it's not exactly lined up right. Take a look at the screenie. There's a deep red and navy bar just on the side for some reason.

The top part is what your mod looked like ingame, and the bottom what I think I have in mind.

Will have a look at it again now... I know where I messed up just learnt somthing new about the UI builder you can drag the whole page containing say the health bar insted of each little bit lol .... thats where I messed the alingment up

Heres another one, maybe I got it right this time lol

*EDIT* made it a bit more compact, not sure how close I can go to each object with out them overlapping and not displaying properly.
