Theoretically possible, but not something I could easily do.

Another option would be to have a user defined list of "Notouchie" files, but again that's not something I could easily setup. The updater is written in a language I'm not familar with.

Easiest solution for now would be to have ppl keep copies of changed files in another dir and just copy those over after running the updater. Corse I gotta tweak the updater to pull from my site first

Just to be certain, I ran the entire install proceedure with a clean directory, booted into EQ and everything was fine. Exited, changed _simple_fetish_bars.dds to fetish_bars.dds. Logged back in and all was fine.

BTW, you did install the alt bar style correctly.

There's a ReadMe.txt with JUST the install instructions in it, like 8 sentences. 95% of the over 1000 users that have installed this mod have had little to no trouble

Hmm... maybe I should draw up an illustrated version, like those CPR posters for literacy impared

Good idea! I like pictures

ok on a serious note let me see if i have this right.

1 download the eqmaps updater and run it.
2 unzip FNF and install and overwrite
3 choose various mods remove everything before the "eq2" and overwrite
4 rename the fetish_bar mods to Fetish_bar and overwrite

does that look right?

Yep, just be sure you've setup the eq2.ini to point to your custom UI directory before you run EQ2MAP. It uses that to decide where to put its files.

1) make ini
2) run EQ2MAP updater
3) UnZIP Fetish to the same dir
4) strip _xxx_ off the file name of any altstyles you want

What I'm trying to get is 5 ticks to mid mark, 4 mids to major. Still 20 ticks, but one of the mid marks falls in the center of the major. Then I can read the bar at a glance, and get it within a couple of tenths of a percent. I can then focus on the small ticks if I want exact number.

An example. 93.7% is 9 bubbles plus 3.7%. With the existing setup, that's about one blue major plus about 4/5 of the next. So 4/5 of 2% is 1.6.

With 5 ticks to the mid, 4 mids to a major, 3.7% will be a bit easier to see. Blue major is 2%, 3/4 of another is about 1.5%. Each quarter is half a percent, making it easier to tell at a glance.

I guess it's just me. Like I said, I'm having a hard time putting it in words.

I didn't mention how much I like the UI. I enjoy the mellow feel of the blue borders, and I recommend it to everyone I know. Especially crafters. I only offer this as a suggestion.

How is the tick setup put in? Is it in a scalable graphic file or is it built by the ui from property values? If it's property values, tell me where they are and I'll make my own.

Default status rewards

I keep seeing 9999 status reward points in the quest reward window. Does anyone else have this problem? Is it my setup or is it in Nightfall? Has this been fixed with 3.4?

Yes, I have been seeing this as well, but kept forgetting to report it. Still seeing it in 3.4 also.

Xal ticks are a repeating image from fetish_widgets2.dds.


See what happens when yal don't report bugs
Rewardpack is an easy fix.

1) Open eq2ui_popup_rewardpack.xml in NotePad.
2) Search for "9999 status points"
3) Replace with "Select one of the following:"

Guess they changed it at some point and I didn't spot it. Fix is in my files now for next update.

Default Maintained Spell/Spell Effects Request

I would love to see the Maintained Spells and Spell Effects window be able to do the following:

1. Have the Maintained Spells window fill from left to right and the Spell Effects window fill from right to left (in the event of horizontal layout or multiple columns).

2. Have everything but the Icons be click-through.

3. Have the Spell Name and time remaining tied to the frame and titlebar so that frame = time and frame and titlebar = both.

Any chance that this is doable?

I think 1 and 3 are doable, though 3 gets funky if you've got lettebox on and auto-hiding frames/titles.

2 might be possible by adding a button to turn absorbsinput off and on. The problem with this request is resizing the window if it doesn't accept cursor input on the window.

I'm a little hesitant to dork with these windows untill SOE gets all the DynamicData working. Kinda expect another big update for them soonish.

Thumbs Up Ratings Reminder

Just a reminder, nothing says "I love your mod" like a 5 star rating on the download page

I figure theres around 1k users of Nightfall and only 27 have rated it, so if you haven't already please do

Ermm... RE: hotkey numbers, I'm guessing I just screwed up and forgot to nudge the numbers down. I'll fix that real quick for the 3.4 update.

Ok fixed both the 85L and 100L hotkey numbers to be bottom aligned
I don't see the full size regular bags in 3.4 only vertical and horizontal versions.

_1004H_ would be a standard bag layout, 100% scale, 4 across, horizontal fill.

Please clarify. The Recipes button is present in the Tradeskill Window. You can double-click Recipe icons in the tradeskill list to examine them. I don't recall an "Examine Recipe" icon anywhere else.

Also a bookmark file was included in the Nightfall zip.

Exclamation Problem with second chat window

This is an incredible improvment to the game - I was on a friends comp who has the stock interface, and I found it unbearable to look at (much less use) after only 1 week of using this UI Mod.

However, since installing this mod, my second chat window doesn't appear anymore, and when I go to open it (using the non-new chat window openoption on the chat window menu), it opens with a new window and a single tab, completely unconfigured.

This is hurting a lot due to my playstyle - since I keep all the "Chat" in one window and the "Events" in another. For example, when grouped, I keep my "Chat" window on the "Group" tab (where I get group and tells), and I keep my "Events" window on the "Combat" tab (which only takes the combat events that I am interested in). Non-grouped, I pull up the "Talk" tab in my "Chat" window to see ooc, says, shouts and auctions, etc, and the Events window gets the routine noise stuff (all the misc messages from the environment) on the Misc tab. Or I pull up my Guild tab, etc...

So either I go flipping multiple tabs on a single window , or I have to reconfigure that second (combat) window each and every time I log in.

The odd thing is that it only does this with one of my toons - the other is just fine. boggle

Is there any fix to this?

Grym, I may work up an alternate version of the Knowledge window at some point. Not on the top of my list though

Not gonna cram more stuff into the default Compass and the DynamicData for loc is slow to update. If someone else wants to toss up an Add-on for this, have at it.

WindowShades were added to most windows in 3.4, including the Journal.

Chumba, sounds like you have the dreded Chat window bug reported to result from a corupted serversettings.ini. Someone posted a file that supposedly fixes the prob over on the Classic support page. Deffinetly not an issue with the UI.

Hi there,

I am needing a patch or update to this mod to display Crush/Pierce/Slash resistances. To 95% of all the players out there, I know this doesn't matter, but for high end raiding it really helps to see this stuff to gauge the effects of various armor and buff combinations.

If someone could let me know what to do to replace the coin values on the personabar and add them to the inspect window with the information I need, that would be outstanding.

Easiest way to get the coin info into the Inspect window is to open the persona file, locate the coins page object, and copy/paste that entire nested page with all its sub-objects into the Inspect window. Not sure why you'd wanna do that though since the Inventory window is more accessable and already shows coins.

Prety sure the crush/slash and pierce objects can be found baried in the Inventory window if you're looking to replace persona coins with that info.

Thanks Zonk - I kinda figured it was an SOE thing, not your mod - after all, that stuff generally isnt kept in the custome UI files. Just a coincidence that I got bit by that right about the time I changed UI. Thank godness - I'd rahter live with the tab flipping than live without your mod.

Thanks for the pointer to a possible solution - I'll followup here so anyone getting this bug can see it in this thread too since FNF is such a popular UI.
