Fetish Nightfall Full Release - Page 74

crusade420, Uhm... the Player window is in the upper left corner of your screenshot. The health and power bars are not overlapping.

I'm guessing you are mistaking the XP bars in the Persona window for health and power. XP bars show a major bar and a minor bar (which overlaps the major bar even in the Default UI) so you can see less than 1% XP gains.

I believe he means the text in the persona window for health and power. They appear to be wrapping and causing them to overlap.

On a side note, I've been trying to have my inventory window to be shrunk by default, but have had little success at it. Everywhere I put the code from the readme.doc file, it just seems to break the inventory window completely so that it will not shrink or collapse at all. I thought it should go in the main <page> tag that describes the inventory page (the same place the version number is) but it did not work there. That is I believe were Faoj said to put it but it didnt seem to work. Any help would be greatly appriciated.

ok after installing v6.6 when i logged in game a little window popped up during the Everquest screen that asked me to choose keyboard settings. The choices were EQ2 default, Everquest, and Other. I didnt want to choose any of them because i didnt wanna have to reset the way i already had them but there didnt seem to be anyway around it so i picked other in hopes that Other meant my settings that i previously configured. I reasoned that at any rate i can just redo them all.

Anyway. When i got into the options page i discovered that i cant get the bloody game to recognize my hotbar number keys when i push them. I've toggled number lock on and off, toggled the check box that allows you to use numberpad for text imput on and off and cant get it to work. when i try to set hotbar key one both to the 1 key and the <numpad 1> key i cant. When i hit the numberpad one key what pops up isnt 1 or numpad 1 it just says unknown.

Of course this would be the One time i didnt set a restore point.
I dont remotely know what to do from here. Its not my keypad as it works fine outside of game. Can anyone help me?

And the classic version ? Is there a chance for an upgrade ?

Thanks.

exactly!, Thur UI did the same thing, although the defult eq2 ui dosnt

Faoj · #**1831** 07-19-2006, 02:53 PM

This is not really a problem, but rather just a matter of adjusting the text/display to fit within the window. The window itself is big enough.

For example, here is what I did, to the eq2ui_mainhud_persona.xml file:

Line 60 (health value): Change ScrollExtent and Size from 70,18 to 100,18
Line 62 (power value): Change ScrollExtent and Size from 70,18 to 100,18

Lines 65,67,69 (Attack,Mitigation,Avoidance label): Change Location from 126,xx to 200,xx
Lines 66,68,70 (Attack,MitigationAvoidance value): Change Location from 211,xx to 289,xx

Lines 73 (RunSpeed label): Change Location from 126,xx to 200,xx
Lines 74 (RunSpeed value): Change Location from 211,xx to 289,xx

Lines 77 (DPS label): Change Location from 126,xx to 200,xx
Lines 78 (DPS value): Change Location from 211,xx to 289,xx

And with those edits: No value wrap!

**Zonx** · #**1832** 07-19-2006, 10:03 PM

aeyrhed, not sure why it wouldn't load your custom keyboard layout in the first place but now that its gone I suggest you select the EQ2 layout, then tweak it as needed. The "Other" layout may not have number keys mapped to the hotbar.

There's also a thread on this site dealing with issues some have had with custom keyboard settings. If it doesn't save your changes, you may need to setup the layout manually as instructed in that thread.

crusade420, the issue you're having can sometimes occure if you don't have my fonts installed. I suggest you open the Nightfall ZIP, sort by file name, and re-extract all files begining with "Font". If that doesn't correct the problem, you can try opening FontArial14.xml and FontArial14T.xml in Notepad and reducing the font size 1 or 2 points.

I went to do that, but couldnt find the lines inside that file..maybe im blind idk, I also tryed what Zonx said..the later that is i have no idea what u mean by extract..extreamly new to this... Um so Sorted by name and the font files that are in the fetish folder are. FontArial14T.xml, FontArial14.xml, Font_Japan_Arial14T.xml, and Font_Euro_Arial14T.xml... I changed the first two the font points that is...heh it made random things like the persona bar text, and guild event text small.. did nothing to the Persona window itself..Also in the guild window when u click some ones name and it shows when they joined..thats cut off aswell on the bottom it was like that befor i changed it (BTW i know this is probly hard to read)

Someone had a mod posted here that showed a very nice window that listed both common and rare harvest times and broke them down by tier. It placed an H in the upper left corner of the inventory window. Unfortunantly this was pre- LU 25 and it no longer works.

Anyone know where this is and if it has been updated?

garylian · #**1835** 07-20-2006, 11:37 AM

Whew, got quite a few questions answered on some problems I was having in 6.6.

One thing I noticed, and I was able to fix by re-sizing my hotbar icons, was that the primary row of hotkeys wrapped down one. That made levelling up pretty not-fun, because the first new "spell" that character got wasn't on the screen. That row of hotbuttons was at the bottom, and the one icon dropped below the bottom of the screen.

Should that have happened?

And is there any way we can rotate the hotbars? I wouldn't mind putting a hotbar on the left side of my screen, vertical. This would make it much easier on tradeskilling, as those buttons would be closer to the location where I keep my tradeskill window.

Zonk, you 'da troll!

Faoj · #**1836** 07-20-2006, 12:48 PM

Garylian:
(1) You can now change the size of the hotbar icons. Making them "too big" will cause them to wrap into two rows. Either make them smaller, or resize the hotbar. This 'change the size' feature is now standard in SoE: r-click on the hotbar to get the full set of options.

(2) You can resize any hotbar and make it vertical. Think of the vertical bar as a horizontal bar of size one, that raps into 10 rows

It is just a matter of resizing the hotbar to fit your needs.

Paganstar:
The only thing I have seen like that is Goldi's Start Window, which (among other things) has a Harvest Window (accessed via a H button in the Start Window). You can find that mod here: http://www.eq2interface.com/list.php?skinnerid=22548

wraithkwk · #**1837** 07-20-2006, 04:21 PM

The only way i can get Fetish to load is by using the in game command
ie. /loadui .....then on the next startup i gotta do it over again.

My eq2.ini folder isnt working. i even cut and pasted it its in the correct directory. Grr the only way i can get a working UI is to use one like Ultimate with an install feature. I'm going completely insane PLEASE help me someone!

zarobhr · #**1838** 07-21-2006, 07:06 AM

Not sure if this is a typo in your post or if this is your problem. You should NOT have an eq2.ini folder. You SHOULD have an eq2.ini file. I would go back to the install directions that came with Fetish and go through them very carefully line by line. Cause it should work and it won't be any different from running one UI to the next, in fact chances are whoever wrote the install program for the other UI's prolly used Zonx's directions as a cheat sheet.

Imajika · #**1840** 07-21-2006, 01:20 PM

Timed quests are no longer displaying correctly. Usually a countdown timer was displayed in the quest helper window. Since the last Fetish update, it just says, "Time" in red letters with no actual countdown.

Thanks and I LOVE this UI.

Edit: OOPS! Just noticed that someone else posted about this! Can someone let me know which file to delete so I can get the timer back as a temporary fix until a Fetish update is released? THANKS!

Don't sweat it, it shows that I'm not the only one with this problem, so hopefully he'll look into it

freeze914 · #**1842** 07-22-2006, 12:46 PM

It seems my sales log is not in any kind of order outside of the grouping of session sales. Should sorting by time/date be occurring for me? If not, is there a way to enable sorting?

Great UI! Keep up the good work.

Thanks..

Liandra · #**1843** 07-22-2006, 05:29 PM

Zonx, is there any way you can increase the size of the "Seller" column on the market search window. Currently it cuts off part of the location of the seller making it hard to know where to go to buy your items.

for example in the screenshot attached it just says 17 Lucie Street but the rest of it saying which zone Lucie street is in has been cut off.

lnxam · #**1844** 07-23-2006, 06:34 PM

I've noticed that any time I access my options button all my options get reset to default. This wouldn't be a big deal, but I've changed most of the targeting and command buttons so and I have to change about 20 settings everytime I want to make one adjustment. Anyone else having this problem or a possible solution?

aeyrhed · #**1845** 07-23-2006, 08:29 PM

after selecting the other option ive tried it both with eq1defaults and eq2 defaults and still when i try to enter in the number pad numbers as alternates for the first set of hotbars it wont recognize the keys it just flags them as <unknown> it wont even see it as a 1 key with the option to use numberpad to enter text flagged. i'll see if i can find the thread you mentioned. I had no problems the first time i manually set all the keyboard settings up. hopefully i'll find my way outta this mess soon.

Dae'lomdel · #**1846** 07-23-2006, 11:17 PM

There is a known bug with EQ2 and the numpad for some people. There is supposedly a fix work around on the eq2 tech forums somewhere. Anyhow this isn't UI related....

**Zonx** · #**1847** 07-24-2006, 07:43 AM

I'll be looking into the QH Timer issue. Thought SOE only changed the alignment, but maybe they dorked with the object name too.

Liandra, In house buying wasn't an option when the window was designed. I'll have to tweak it for proportional columns now that seller location actually maters.

Faoj,

Thanks for answering my questions!

Hinton · #**1849** 07-25-2006, 10:24 PM

I'm having a problem getting the Dock to show up with the newer Inventory Windows. I want to Shrink 'n Collapse the window by default, which I can get it to do that just fine, but as default and after I do that, I can't get a Dock to 'move' the shrunken window to a good default location. It's driving me nuts. It keeps resetting to where it wants to. I want to remove the dock completely to be honest, and can remove / hide the Shrink / Expand button, Bags Button, etc... but that Dock is not even working at all for me.

Any ideas?

**Zonx** · #**1850** 07-26-2006, 12:27 AM

Hinton, you're ratteling off a buncha different stuff which is only confusing me as to what exatly is the problem.

Can you not display the dock using the "D" button?

If you can display it, can you not move the Dock when the window is unlocked?

If you can move it, is the client not saving it's new location?

Or are you attempting to remove all the resize functionality on the Inventory window and running into problems because the Inventory window becomes locked when shrunk and collapsed?
