I have my custom preset graphic settings already setup for that.
The 3 dots just below the EQ2 button in game are setup for low, medium, and high graphics all with (see shineys from far away setup)

Hope this helps...

Oh, you have to be using my startbutton mod to have this...

[Ive Defected]

is there a reasoni cant exit the silly Isle speech?

also is there a fix im missing for the /showhood and /hide_illusion buttons on goldies start mod?

[Faetyl]

Isle speech doesn't have anything to do with the User Interface to the best of my knowledge.
If you're using the "chat while zoning" mod, that is keeping everyone from seeing the screen during the new intro.

"Goldi's bar" persay isn't in the ThorUI.
If you're using my startbutton and you still have a "hide Illusion" button, this would make me think you haven't updated the ThorUI per the instructions on the ThorUI splash screen and posted here:
http://www.eq2interface.com/forums/s...ead.php?t=5546

Be sure to follow those instructions and they should resolve your questions.
Note: /showhood command has an issue on the isle, or atleast it did for the character I created to test all of this. Once off the isle the /showhood command and button worked fine.

After you had visited a vendor. The items you currently where in possession of and that where listed in the "Sell" sections where stored in a database. If you later on moved your mouse over the item, a window would pop up with the description of the item including the price that the vendor would give for it (if multiple vendors had different prices, the highest price where stored).

This is usefull for everyone that wish to sell their items at the market. Would then make it easier to sell it above vendor price, instead of overflowing the market with vendortrash.

Can't find an answere to this suggestion, does that mean it wont be maked? It's allready bin maked or do you still thinking about it?

Still looking into parts of it.

O_o Really thankfull! Let me know if there is anything i can help you with.

[Faetyl]

I personally don't see any way to do this with EQ2 unfortunately.
Imagine our options being closely related to a kid with a coloring book.
We can color the pages and even rip the pages out and rearrange and fold them.
But as far as adding features, we are very limited.

I'd recommend you post in the Request section and see if someone knows something I don't.

hi,
as a heavy crafter in the game and an extreme lover of thorui i was hoping for some help. i had the thorui auto updater installed until LU19 at which time due to the crafting window no longer being small i was unable to craft with this UI program and was force to go to another. The problem my wife and i are having is with the thorui when you click on the crafting table it bring up the recipe book with is awesome but it completely covers the screen ane you can not see what is happening. i watch the forge when crafting to see the + or - of each step of the way. with the new update since LU19 i can no longer craft unless i completely rotate my veiw which make it extremely difficult to craft. please know we both want our THORUI back lol can someone advice what we should do or if there in the future will be a different crafting window. we have 3 computers and one still has thor ui on it so we check daily to see if anything has changed and nothing as of LU20. thanks again for THORUI and it developers it is by far the best that we have used and want so bad to come home to our favorite and best UI program

Thank you for the kind words.

I'm working on making a better interface for those who think the new window is too large (about 50% of my users right now)

I'm swamped but plan on having a new version soon.

[rrr80120]

I'd like to see the emote screen show up in the chat screen. I like the way it's organized for easy access, but the screen is too large. Maybe something like Gradient chat?
Or how would I install that in the Thorui?

Uncheck whatever chat mod you are using (with tabs on top or on bottom). You might also want to uncheck the Enhanced Socials Window within the AU
Delete the Thorui folder
Download a new copy of the UI
Download/Unzip the files for the mod you want to use into the thorui folder
Play game..and viola!

Ok, I sure that this will not be a hard thing to do but I would like all the information to be displayed down the side of the screen and then chat along the bottom. Kind of like a Vista desktop. I would like more room to see everything on the screen and not it be cluttered from to much information. Possibly taking 1/8 of the screen to display this information. All of it can be moved around to suit the player.

Thanks!

This is a per user preference and is stored in what most refer to as the "window placments file" aka servername_username_uisettings.ini

Everyone is free to unlock all windows (Note: you can unlock all windows at once via the user interface section within the in game options) and then move items around however you would like.
Once you do this with one character, simple log in the next character and type "/load_uisettings" without the "quotes", then select the character you just setup.
This will load those exact settings over to your other character.
Rinse and repeat for all alts.

Hope this clarifies your issue.

I've noticed alot of people comenting on how certain features of thorui AU aren't exactly what they were looking for (for example: the targeting features) but they love most of the features. I was thinking that having an option on the AutoUpdater's Advanced Settings in each catagory allowing for the Standard UI. This option would be able to essentially delete the individual .xml file that controls that option. Another nice option (i don't know if it's been mentioned) could be a custom UI option which would allow for thoruiAU's features to be available but also add custom pieces to it a seperate folder or just a costom button in advanced settings which stops updating on individual pieces or options.

[Faetyl]

It certainly could be, but would require me to update the "normal" files every time Sony updates them. If it were more than me doing the UI pieces I could see that being a viable option but as it stands now. I'm not to sure I would have that much more time to devote to this.

As it stands now, all that is required is for the user to "uncheck" an option then delete the thorui folder and re-launch the ThorUI AU. Most play with it a bit until they find what features they want then never mess with it again. At least that's what my experience has been.

Currently the ThorUI AU has a feature to "Do not update if local file is newer" This basically allows one to modify a window and not worry about the AU over writing it. For example the individual notes features.

Other individual UI pieces need only be dropped in the thorui directory to work in conjunction with the ThorUI.

I personally would like the following:
One auto updater to manage all UI customizations. "One ring to rule them all" comes to mind LOL
For example: I want the Fetish targeting and the thorui tradeskill features.
All could be managed in one central updater where all files could be maintained on the eq2interface server.
Individual authors could update their individual UI pieces and upload a picture and information on their UI mod. All available and viewable via the updater.
This would of course require a group to manage the AU and UI submissions but would make a one stop shop for all interface pieces from all authors.
The updater would also have the ability to remove deselected features if unchecked...
Perfect world permitting though...

Try looking in the skills window (keyboard shortcut = L). There should be a tab for Achievements.

Hey there, great UI mod you got going here! The only suggestion I have is the ability to toggle what type of XP bar is shown, i.e. adventure, tradeskill, AA, guild. The way it is currently, you have to resize the window and it will show all the bars. Seeing I'm at 70 now, I have no need to see my adventure bar but I would rather just have my AA xp bar up.

You are aware that you can use any mods found here (that aren't already included in the updater) in conjunction with ThorUI, aren't you? Just make sure you don't have any of the exp bars selected in the updater and throw the files for the desired exp bar into your thorui directory.

[Lexi357]

Ok let me get this right, before I mess something else up.
Supose I don't like Thors recipie book, but I don't care for the default one either. I can search the downloads here in the pieces section, find one I like and then use it by extracting it to: C:\Program Files\Sony\EverQuest II\UI\thorui?

Also If I have this right, in order to then use mrkitchenhelp's Recipie book I would then go into ThorAU and uncheck the recipie book option in there, load up the game and mrkitchenhelp's Recipie book is now my "default"

I just wanna make sure on all this so I can cut down on the "login/check ui, logout fix ui, log back in again" thing.

I would love to see an updated heritage quest journal for kos!

See this ugly green text? When this ugly green text shows up on the update window, which is white, it's almost invisible. PLEASE pick a darker color like navy or ANYTHING that shows up on white background better than this color.

Thanks

I don't know about anyone else, but I got a black background on my updater. And the green looks fine to me.

I have the green writing on the white/grey backround and yes it is difficult to see very well, kinda like this this color on a white backround always hurts my eyes I have to highlite the text just to be able to tell there really are words there.

[Un0riginal]

Is it possible to have the timer window with one that can be user set? So that I can have 10minutes, or 20minutes for timing spawns.
