Sounds like you got a "eq2ui_inventory_examine.xml" in the ThorUI folder somehow.

Delete it an you should be fine afterwards...
Since this occured I would recommend deleting the ThorUI folder and reinstalling as you may have other files that shouldn't be there.

Note: ThorUI v4.8.6 doesn't modify the "eq2ui_inventory_examine.xml" in any way so this must be from a previous version or another mod.

Per the troubleshooting section: If all else fails uninstall, delete ThorUI folder, reinstall, if issue still persists, then post here.

Let me know how it turns out and sorry you had trouble...

No no there must bea misunderstanding. I ment the "Custom Preset" Buttons in your, let me call it settings window. Where you can open i.e the "notes" or "toggle hide illu" and the EQ2 Option Button. There are also the Graphic Settings Buttonsfron Very High Perf til Very High Quali, that is what I'm talking about. The three custom buttons.
But I allready found it what I was looking for... anyway, thanks for your very fast response.

From your post it appears as if you have done some research on this before posting and I thank you for that.

Could you do me a favor and uninstall, delete the ThorUI folder and reinstall to the EverQuest II directory?
Be sure to check the packages section for any optional windows you may want.

This should resolve any issues you may have.

.Dont know why it was not there to start with.

Thank you for a great bunch of work, stay safe in the game..... or dont and have fun.

Drackoss · #**328** 08-25-2005, 12:35 PM

hey Faetyl, i really like your UI and i want to continue to use it.

if i may, could you possibly add in an option window for your installation for a "manastone ready" file, like in Profits UI. That is the only thing i think that would make yours the ultimate UI.

Thank you Drackoss,
I'm actually planning to add this when I get a chance.
Alot going on behind the scenes right now with the ThorUI...

I actually think Sony should add code to the manastone so it changes color when ready and when depleted...
I among many others have sent "in game" feedback regarding this.

Heya Faetyl,

I was finally able to find the resize locator for the right side of the chat window (which was about halfway between center and the right edge), thanks to that bug you mentioned.

However, I'm noticing that the chat window defaults back to its original size, just like the custom sound slider bars in the start button, once I camp out. Is there a way to fix this, or is this part of that bug that Sony needs to fix with the window?

Thanks

That's the window placements bug that's been reported.
Are you using my new window placments file provided in the installer?
If so, my latest may indeed have the Sony bug.
I'll upload a replacement in the hotfix section ASAP that should resolve the issue.

Ceeno · #**333** 08-25-2005, 07:19 PM

I see your list of features mentions something about audio and presets but I've not found any instructions on how. I'm sure it's obvious but I just haven't seen it.

I found the menu on the EQ button...very cool. I like that the sound sliders are on there. Good thing 'cause I HATE in-game music and ever since I installed your UI I'm stuck listening to it every time I log on, no matter how many times I use the alt-o or your sliders...the setting doesn't stick.

So my main question is...how do I kill the music forever?

Thanks in advance for your help.

OldBlueDragon · #**334** 08-26-2005, 05:40 AM

Just wanted to report that I installed your complete UI package earlier tonight and it went smooth as silk! I love the UI and wonder how I ever got along without it all this time! Only problem is it kept me logged on till after 3:30AM and I still have to work in the morning! (that's not really your fault though)

Thanks for creating and supporting a terrific product! My toons thank you and I thank you!

Setanta · #**335** 08-26-2005, 11:23 AM

Heya Faetyl

Been using your UI for a while now - love it, absolutely love it!

Wondering if it would be possible to adapt the Nightvision on/off button to crank the gamma up/down so that we clerics who don't have that feature can pass through those dark tunnels without too many surprises

, (this is the fix that I use now - using the gamma slider under options - works ok but I often forget to turn it back down and then have to do so under graphics settings when I exit the game.)

Thanks for a fantastic UI.

Ceeno · #**336** 08-26-2005, 06:30 PM

Oops, never mind my question. I didn't notice there were 14 pages and just found the Search this Thread feature and got my answer. Bah I say...BAH!

For all those who hate the slider bars...

I'll include as an option in next release, until then just save this version to your ThorUI directory overwriting the present one.

Nightvision works for all classes.
In order to see the change you need to have your graphics on "Balanced Performance"

Hello,
Its me again thanks for info on my late problem now heres my new one lol sorry im a noob when it comes to these UI's.

Ok here what i need to know in the old UI in persona window i could pick a title like skelly hunter ,gnoll slayer,Ect but in this one i do not see it .where can i find this at. Thanks witchhunter

Example: /title /setsuffix 6
Result (at least for me): setting my Treasure Hunter title

Faetyl has prepared the persona window for LU13, which will have multiple tabs in it. Since those tabs aren't available yet (Sony hasn't sent them through yet), you can revert back to the default window by simply renaming your "eq2ui_mainhud_persona.xml" to "eq2ui_mainhud_persona.xml.old"
This will return your persona window to the default Sony version.

Ahh. Thank you. It does.

It's an unfortunate coincidence that the dark tunnels are also the ones that have lots of mobs just waiting to pounce, with consequent lag. I'm inclined to use extreme performance for those places. This, however, is an issue with my computer performance and not your UI.

Thanks for your promt reply and for the continued excellence of your UI.

**Faetyl** · #**342** 08-29-2005, 01:36 PM

wow, no replies in a few days.

Everyone must be busy leveling for the new expansion or you've all left to ProfitUI.

Since the NDA is lifted, I can bring it up now.
It's just plain awesome from what I was able to see!
Granted I was only lvl 38 at the time I was accepted but i've worked my booty off and only lack 7.5% to make lvl45
I've copied my character over again and hope to be able to check out the arena more.

The blog audio recently posted has some good info and would recommend you listen to it if your interested in the expansion.

First sentence of the main post explains this as well as oh say six posts above hehe.
Sorry but this issue is getting old.

I just added some dancing bannanas to attract attention to the post.

The updated persona window was implemented to ensure the LU13 patch (now to be released with DoS Expansion) goes smoothly, aka no user issues.

You may simply deselect the persona window during install as stated or you may manually delete the persona.xml in the ThorUI Folder.
This will set you up with the default persona window.

Note: /title may also be used in game to set your titles... For Example: /title setprefix 2

I believe my reply directly above this one also addresses your issue.

All I ask is that people read the main post and do a little research. (you may search for downloads and/or forum posts via the toolbar at the top of your screen.)

If you were to seach for the word persona and thorui together you should find quite a few.
http://www.eq2interface.com/forums/s...earchid=134451
Note: The search also highlights the searched words in red for you.

But there again; this is addressed in the main post so no searching should be required.

ALT+M will toggle the maintained spells window

Also, the window may be positioned off screen.
You may bring it back on screen by unchecking the "allow windows off screen" box within options>user interface.

Excellent Draig thank you,
Have you seen any further info regarding the "missing text" issue?
All I see are post reporting the issue currently but no Sony acknowledgement as of yet.

This is really gonna bite if they don't fix before Go Live

Shileah · #**353** 08-31-2005, 02:47 PM

Hi there. I have just loaded your UI and it is awesome. I have looked through these posts but have not found the issue that I am seeing. I may have missed it with the 15 pages of posts.

My issue is with the target window. I am running in 1280 x 1024 and the name of the mob is directly over the mobs health as I am fighting it. Is there something that I am doing wrong or is that how it was designed? Can the name of the mob be moved higher so that I can see his health better?

Thank you very much for your prior research and I understand the posts are growing. But the search feature makes up for it I guess.

As for the target window, It is indeed designed that way.
There are changes to the targeting system that will be live on the 12th that "should" make it fit a bit better. (I've designed the current target window off of the modified window within beta in order to make that transition as smooth as possible)
Also, with Sony doing so many last minute changes to beta I'm hesitant to change anything at this time.
Once Go Live reaches us I will re-evaluate all windows and see if adjusting is required addressing the larger issues at that time of course.

Shileah · #**355** 08-31-2005, 03:36 PM

Thank you for your quick reply. I look forward to the changes on the twelfth. Well, I will have to see them when i get back from vaca.

Im pretty sure I was ok with text on Thor UI v4.8.5 on Beta, not 100% sure would have to double check, trying to level more on live for release.

Sounds like a bugged Window Placements file.
I just redid it to try and get around this but looks like it's buggy as well.
I'll download the confirmed "good" version of it here and setup again.
