wonderfull UI
absoloutly great UI
With the last update I thought I would try a UI that had all the latest dohickys for the last LU, needless to say, this is better and I soon came back
I have read in this thread that the ingame browser is somewhat unsupported! (although those comments were a long time ago).
Its a part of the UI that I realy want to play with as it may save me alt/tabbing to the out of game browser for quest hints.
firstly as you say it may, it does indeed crash my client and when not crashing it refreshes everytime I type somethin in the url window, as if the go button is permanatly being clicked.
Any plans to do something about this?
like should I wait with baited breath or just give up on this aspect of the UI?
once again thanks for a great UI

Take a Pill :P
Ok lets get a few things straight.
1) its been a wopping 40 days since my last official update. The last LU's changes were very trivial and could be easily incorporated with Gumba's posted tweak (which I noted in my last post). The latest LU went live 2 days ago.
2) I have a life, real work, etc.
3) I also like to play EQ2 as much as you do.
4) I use this UI, so if a critical feature is missing, I'm gonna notice.
5) Based on the level of donations, I am still doing this virtually for free.
If you can't be bothered to make simple NotePad tweaks yourself...
Are too impatient to wait for someone else (me or another user) to post an update...
Aren't willing/able to donate...
And can't keep yourself from complaining on these forums...
Please, please go find another UI! I and the apreciative folks in this forum really don't care to hear from selfcentered, lazy, cheap whiners.
For all you apreciative users....
Although the changes in this LU are also very unessential, I agree 2 LUs warrants an update even if the changes are trivial. I will be carving out some time during my EASTER holiday and tax filing to get an update out. Untill its up, Kodan was kind enough to post a version of the Persona window (with a reuse timer button) as an Addon's.

this is a pretty funky UI, and I think I'm going to enjoy using it.

Maybe a dollar or two thrown his way would help too?
It's worth it.... I've donated and have never regretted doing so... I like the updates for sure... but I would really hate it for Zonx to quit...

Hey Zonx
I got an idea about how to appease the restless masses:
One line post from you after each UI update:
Hi folks, I am aware of the changes and am working on it. Love, Zonx.
Then I reckon everyone would donate $10 Wouldn't you?
Doc
ps don't forget to declare all the donations in your tax return

Naggers... Get the hell out of here
Why in hell u ppl nagging about some not so important things things which SoE included 2 days ago? I can live with good ol' Fetish as long it not affect the gameplay itself.
Have u ever heard bout the word "patience"? i doubt u did.
Give the man time to decide when and how he will implement all the new stuff. Until than Enjoy the game as u did before.
Geez...

Whiners
Whiners is the exact reason I post rarely on forums, I just gleam what informaion I can and move on. This UI is the best I have seen and used, and Zonx is right there are no major issues at this time. Even when there had been issues in the past, someone usually posts a quick fix like recently so I can use that if necessary while I patiently wait for the official fix. I am just glad that the old saying "You get what you pay for" is not true with Zonx's UI, otherwise since we paid nothing we should get a substandard product. But instead we get the best.

If folks can't wait for Zonx to update the UI when he gets to it, then maybe they should use another UI. Hes not doing it for the money, hes doing it as a service to us. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth folks.
Personally, I love FetishUI. I also know how to use the default windows that are changed in a LU until a new release is out.
I mean come on. LU21 did nothing big with the UI, hardly warranting an official update when there were workarounds posted. LU22 did have some serious stuff but that was only a few days ago! Give him some time -- not everyone can or wants to drop everything to update a UI the instant a new LU goes live.

Zonx, gotta give you due respect...this UI is da bomb!!! I'll admit that I look forward to checking the site every few days for any updates and am somewhat disappointed when there isn't one, however, from personal experience I know that tweaking UI's is VERY time consuming.
If you just CANNOT live without something new that SOE has added to the UI, simply delete the Fetish version of the window and EQ will use the default. Either do that, OR sit down, open up UIBuilder (which SOE so generously included for free) and figure it out yourself (it's actually kinda fun once you get the hang of it).

Agree..ppl take a chill pilll
Whiners quit complaining, the man has a life!!!! The changes that were make are not that big of a deal, and it does not affect game play. I would hate to see Zonx just quit altogether because of whinners. He has made this UI for everyone to use, on his OWN TIME and FREE to use at that! I have donate today and if you like this UI you should donate too! Zonx pls turn a deaf ear to these whinners, my hat goes off to you. I LOVE THIS UI and will use it (as said above) till I drop.... Love ya Zonx !

Kissing up to him is not much better. I considered the implementation of zone reuse timer window pretty major. And LU 22 was a BIG overhaul and yet lots of other ui writers are finished with their updates. I think it's reasonable to want an update after every LU at least. Now it's TWO Live updates later and he has STILL not got an update out. I think that's pretty ignorant of Zonx. I moved on to Vert Reborn but will go back to Fetish if he gets his act together and updates his ui. No I don't know how to change a few lines that's WHY I DO use a custom UI, someone has already done it for me. Demanding the users to fix YOUR UI is pretty silly to demand. Spare me the fanboyism please.

Yes, it is reasonable to WANT an update after every LU, but it is not reasonable to DEMAND one, as you have, for a product that you aren't even paying for and for a product that Zonx is effectively doing for free.

I think there is some heavy ignorance being displayed alright, but it is not from Zonx.
Zonx: Keep up the good work man, your UI is awesome and I, along with many others, appreciate it.

First of all how can you know wether I've paid or not? Some HAVE paid so that makes it even worse. They have paid for an UI that they barely can use soon since a lot of ui files have been updated. No I haven't paid. I may decide to pay if the ui actually gets updated more often but not before then.
Besides using the it's free argument won't work. Almost all UI's are free and most of them is at least LU 21 compatible and quite a lot LU 22.

I have donated also, but do not feel any right to DEMAND anything. I've been using this UI for almost a year before he even put the donation thing out there. The only piece I'm not using at the moment is the persona because of the zone timers and that's fine by me. If you don't want to use his UI because he doesn't kiss your ass, fine; but please don't come in here and insult the man. I'm going to be extremely pissed if he gives up altogether because a jackass came in here and pissed on everyone's parade. ALL the authors do this for a love of what they do. Not because of your sniveling. If manners is fanboyism, I'll take it any day. Grow up.

Zonx makes the best custom UI bar none. Some may have a better journal or a better inventory mode, but total package no one can compete with Fetish. That's pure praise for him and he deserves that. However he now accepts donations which DO put a bit more pressure on him and if he can't handle that when maybe he SHOULD stop. I hope he doesn't since I really don't want to change to any other ui for any longer period, but if he stops, no rain on my parade. I don't demand anything since I don't pay. However I offer to support him and will pay if he shows he's commited to his ui and will make updates as needed.
Btw would like if you could implement t7 rare harvests if you hover mouse pointer over ? in inventory. Would be nice but not essential.
Oh another thing I prefer a functioning but late ui before a buggy on time. So do take the time that is needed. I was really just trying to defend the critisizers:-)

*shakes her head and wonders how much faster someone can backpedal ?*
Zonx .... been tryin to get into my paypal ....seems the oldest grand ... she lovesss to play at my computer desk .. *all those colored markers and such* ... anyhow .... tryin to find my book with my password .. in meantime ... Ive filled out a form for them to mail me *snailmail of course .... but hey ...least its safer that way* my info ....but I am donating again ...
I for one .... with all the chaos Ive gone thru recently ... understand very well how hard it is to resist jumping right into the game when you do get a bit of time at the computer ....
And for those who don't know .... *you know who you are*
Zonx has until recently been the FIRST to update after a patch .....
Since my mom told me to ignore ignorance .... I won't defend Zonx again against those who spout theirs ... He knows he rules *winks at Zonx* and so do we

was just wondering if the guild recruitment tab would be added soon or if it was an automatic added tab?
Great UI and many thanks for the quickness that the main issues get handled with =)

All I can say is WOW!! O_O
First off: Zonx, this UI is IT!! Periodically I change UI's to see what all the rest are doing...then I return to using the BEST!!
Secondly: I can't express in words the amount of appreciation that I feel towards you and the time that you've spent on this UI. If anyone ever took the time, that you have, to build a UI, and I tried, then they'd know how time-consuming this really is and they'd hush and go lay back down by their dish...
You rock! There is nothing else to say after that!
Please keep up the great work because your fan base IS still alive and kicking!!
Donation is on the way...
Trulee appreciative!!

Everything from the last 2 LUs has been incorporated on my end, just want to do a bit of testing and minor tweaks befor I ZIP and post it.
If someone could please post a list of the T7 harvestables, I'll add them to the inventory tooltip.
