Examie Items Broken

I know. I'm at work so I can't fix it yet, but if I get some time I'll take a look and see how much they changed.

I fixed it so it doesn't give the error looks like they added PlayerStudio stuff into it.
Heres the file but this in no way takes away from the great work tknarr has been doing. It is a temporary fix while he works on posting any actual changes if he finds anything wrong with the fixed version

Reason: Forgot to include the icon change in the item examine area. Fixed.

OK, first try at a fix. It's just player studio icons as Papabard noted. I added the icons in the spots corresponding to what the default UI has. I can't test it in-game while I'm on the clock, so it'll be after 5pm Pacific before I can check it myself. If someone else can check it and confirm it works, I can put it on the updater.

just copy the file to eg.
c:\games\EQ2\UI\ProfitUI\
overwrite the file with the same name.
your game is probably in c:\Program Files\Everquest II\--- or something like that.

Downloaded file, ran game - examine items while hovering is still broken. Upon logging into game - gives UI broken message and says to update or revert back to unmodified UI.
Ran patcher to download and update the file, and same result.

Just downloaded the file and copied to ProfitUI folder and the examine now works when I hover over items with the mouse.
Thanks for the quick fix.

You need to save the eq2_examine.xml file posted here to your ProfitUI folder on your computer. DO NOT run the the updater after doing so. Until the file is on the updater it will simply end up overwriting the fixed file we posted here.

I only ran the patcher AFTER trying it with the file I downloaded from here. I got the error message both times. I will try downloading and extracting the file again into the profit folder. Maybe second time will be the charm?

A quick note here, not to distract folks from the important discussion here but I want to thank Tnarr for his efforts and to remark that about half our guild's raid force uses Profit and that one poll I have yet to see SOE run is "What UI interface are you running?" It strikes me as strange that they aren't facing up to the reality that if Profit and the other UI interfaces bug out their launches will become a dismal failure whether they like it or not and that they don't forward a complete rundown of their code changes and what will need to be changed prior to putting it out live. There is more I'd like to say on this but here is not the place.
Thanks Tnarr I'll give this file a shot.
