DOH!! thanks

SWG is Alt+ESC and it didn't work in EQ.

alt+enter... danka much.

been tweaking OCD's UI and I must say I love it.

Any chance someone still have the original ones released with OCD? I'd like to use those if someone could post the files i'd greatly appreciate it.

If there is already a spot to get them a pointer to that would work too

Heyas...

While I don't use the full OCD experience, I do use a lot of your mods; they are amazing 8).

I just redid my UI and tried out your Start Button for Melee mod. It's great, and I love the ammo slot, but I have a weird glitch with it.

When everything first loads up, the actual inventory icon for the ammo slot is way off to the left of where I have the Start Button set up. The background area for it is still attached to the rest of the start button, and if I mouse over and out of the ammo area, the icon will show up in it's proper position.

It's minor, but I thought I'd check and see if there was something simple I forgot to do.

Hey jaxel i use complete ocd, minus a few parts to make windows smaller, and i love everypart of your interface. Thats aid there is one thing that i wish it had that would make the world of difference, and that would be an inventory like Fetish that can be minimized and cut in half to just show bags and weapons. This mod would be great for all the scouts in game who need to change weapons in a hurry, like on raids and such.

Plz help a brother out so i dont have to mess with fetish id rather stay all ocd.

[lollygagger]

The inventory mod is perfect!

Thank you.

hi there, i tried my hand on modifying yer player window. i hope ye don't mind. i intend it to be jes fer my personal use only. it seems like it's a lot more complicated than i expected i tried moving the bar into the text box but i can't see the bars anymore once i get in game. tried playing with the background opacity too but still... twas unsuccessful. and since i moved the concentration elements as well and made the whole window lower i cant see the conc bubbles anymore. since i am using yer target windows as well, i tried to look at it and see how'd ye superimpose the text over the bars but i can't see anything in the UI builder. i am totally lost now. woe is me. hope ye can help or advise. thanks.

I feel like I must have missed this somewhere but I would like to configure the custom video sets. I have things the way I like it and I don't want to lose my current settings. I would like to be able to switch them though. I did spend some time looking but I don't see that anywhere.

Just wondering if you were gonna add those new tabs on the profile window to OCD, forget what they are called, have to do with city faction and stuff (only in test right now, gonna be live soon i suspect). Love OCD btw, much better than the default UI imo.

Also, could you make a button to lock all windows where they are?, i hate when it lags and my mouse drags the hotbuttons instead of using an ability. I dot even know if you can lock windows down but that would be nice to have.

I am running your latest "full" OCD UI, and am having one problem:
When I harvest something or craft something, the pop-up window
saying what you have harvested or crafted does not appear.

I get a msg in the chat window, but am not getting any pop-up on harvest, craft, or craft-level.

I have tried deleting the uisettings ini file, and that did not help.

FYI: I also have a "jaxel" UI, containing just selected pieces of your UI (the separately downloadable items), and in that UI, the pop-up DOES appear.

I am pretty sure there is a box selectable in the OPTIONS menu of the game (EQII button) that says something along the line of "Lock all UI Windows", perhaps in the User Interface section of Options(not in game to check now myself)

Jaxel, I have been using your UI for a few weeks now and enjoy the interface but have one issue with it (not even sure if it is your UI or the game doing this).

What is happening is: Whenever someone invites me to group, if I do not select an option on popup it automatically groups me with the inviter after about 5 seconds. Sometimes this is convenient as it saves me a click but other times, a pain... if I am AFK or if someone sends a ninja-invite that I dont desire to join, it can create an unwanted hassle for me and those inviting me while I am away from my computer or simply not interested in grouping for whatever reason.

Is the above issue something caused by coding in your UI or is it now a default act on the part of client-side coding at SOE's end?

If it is in your coding, any chance of getting a workaround posted so this does not happen and it forces me to select yes or no rather than automatically deciding I want to join if I dont decline in under 5 seconds? Thanks.

Thats an option in the game, not quite sure where it's at, but you need to uncheck auto accept group invites.

Default key is also enter when invited it a group.

I'm using the start button and everything is working fine except for that only my first page of notes is displaying, i am not getting the tabs for any of the other pages.

[wdavis111]

Being a bit unhappy with the way things looked with the EQ2 preset video settings at different levels, I took advantage of notations made at http://eq2vault.ign.com/View.php?vie...ct_id=9&id=208 to alter my settings manually and I really like the outcome.

I was hoping for a nice way to backup those settings and thought that OCD might allow me such with it's start button 'preset video' buttons... but I can't figure out how to use them. Can somebody tell me what these are for in OCD and how to use them?

Ok, I had the same question and I finallly figured it out. I haven't tested this so I will update with more information if it doesn't work. There is a program included with Goldi's http://www.eq2interface.com/download...php?s=&id=3655 so I downloaded it to get it. Instructions are in the readme explaining how to use it. You can configure the settings and then run the program to parse out a custom video file. I am assuming replacing one of the existing custom xml files will change this and get what we want.

[Jaxel]

dont use that file in Goldi's download...

instead, go into...
C:\Program Files\Sony\EverQuest II\eq2_recent.ini

copy all that into the correct place in one of your preferred preset files. If you use goldi's files, it will **** with a bit of the design and it wont work correctly.

Yah, the program didn't work. I tried changing the format back but it still doesn't work.

The existing file has every option listed twice. The eq2_recent.ini has lines that are not in the xml, and there are lines in the xml that are not in the ini.

[Lambdachii]

hey is there a file anywhere that can be copied over so I have your layout? seem to be having some trouble moving everything around with my old layout.

Hi!

I am just using the melee-start button, and I love it. But I have 2 problems.

One is that I cant get the volume turned off when I log on, this drives my crazy and my family as well, hehe.

The second is the ammo-slot.
Whenever I log on or zone the ammoslot goes back to some mysterious "default" place. (Witch happens to be just in the place where I have my hotkeybar.) It stays there until i have pressed any buttons on the startbutton twice. Generally I open and close my bags. Then it pops into position again.

Does anyone have the same probelm? Can anyone please help me?

//Trissy

[Lambdachii]

my ammo button usually does that when i first start up..mousing over where its supposed to go for me makes it move back to its home and it usually stays there.

Not real sure what would be causing it to go crazy like that.

Thanks for the great UI Jax.. miss you on guk.

Unfortunately, this happens all the time to everyone ... if you use the compass window from this UI it also does exactly the same thing ... easuest fix is to simply mouse over the spot it SHOULD be at on your screen and it will instantly pop to that spot and stay until next you zone or log or change from Fullscreen to windowed modes.

[Jaxel]

New! For some reason there is no link to it on the front page.

NEW FEATURES IN THE START BUTTON

First of all, the biggest and most easily recognizable feature... MANASTONE SUPPORT! Pushing the green squared button will immediately turn the button red and start a 1 minute timer. One minute later, the button will become green again telling you 1 minute has passed. You must note, that it actually takes 61 seconds to cast the manastone, but you can only set the timer for 60 seconds; if you push the button as soon as it turns green, it will tell you that the manastone is not ready. But, if you wait a second and push the button again, the manastone will cast and the 1 minute timer will restart. I must point out that everytime you push the manastone button, whether it is red or green, it will restart the 1 minute timer. If you install this mod and the timer is not working (its rare, but it happens to some people), do the following:

Options > Alarms > Session Duration:

• Hours: 0
• Minutes: 1
• Repeat: OFF

then click "restart, that will fix it.

The second thing people will notice is the UNEQUIP ALL button. Often, if you are raiding and you know you will die, the leader of the raid will /yell the mob. If this happens, you can click the unequip all button and all your armor will immediately be unequipped! This helps save on repair costs (especially if you are in full fabled). Unfortunately there is no button to automatically re-equip all your armor. Too bad. This feature alone is a reason why everyone should have this startbutton. If mob is not /yelled, then the button will unequip 1 item at a time, each time you press it.

Also included is complex shader support! Much of the visual lag in the game is due to the high graphics setting of characters and surroundings. Lowering the complex shader distance will effect how fast complex graphics will get shadow support. So this bar is a quick method to changing the quality setting of your screen without having to push the video quality settings and having that 5-10 second screen lag. There are also buttons for your the other activatable slot, a Fishbone Earring and two Imbued Ruby Rings. I kept the ranged ammor slot counter in, but now it is smaller. This mod supports all classes, melee or caster alike.
