Using Fetish Pieces in a custom UI set

EvilIguana966 · #1 06-08-2007, 11:37 AM

I'm interested in the form and functionality of some of the fetish pieces but not some others. I've had some trouble when attempting to use only some of the set. I've tried deactivating the offending windows in Fetish by renaming the files in the UI directory, but this causes some unusual behavior with the remaining fetish windows (couldn't close the clock by any means and could only have one hotbar). I then tried copying the windows over to my custom UI directory, but could never figure out everything they needed to show up correctly. I copied the xml file for each piece, every _fetish_* file, eq2ui.xml and the images directory but the windows still showed up with big black blotches where the data should have been.

Is there any way to tell exactly what stuff I'd have to copy over to get a specific window to work? Is it even possible or do the window pieces frequently reference code from the other window pieces? Is it just a fools errand to be attempting this? If it helps I'm specifically interested in the Player, Target, Implied Target and rectangular Compass windows. I only managed to get that last one working flawlessly.

The windows you seek are already available as stand alone pieces.
Group Window with ClickCures
Player Window with ClickCures
Clock & Compass

These versions use the Classic tan style. If you prefer the Purple style from Nightfall, replace the images and _FetishStyles.xml with those from Nightfall.

Although the version numbers are far behind the latest Nightfall, I don't think anything affecting these windows has changed.

That's extraordinarily helpful as it solves the biggest reason I was afraid of using them heh.

Only one that's missing is the implied target which I wanted because it supposedly lets me click it to assist, a function that always seemed obvious to me.

With those other pieces installed, you should be able to copy the target and implied target windows from Nightfall.

Note: I think the TargetsTurbo piece is missing debuffs, not sure though.

Unfortunately the Fetishpieces did not work. Installed em and got the default UI until I removed em. I think I'm going to mess around a bit more and use the fetishpieces files as a blueprint for what I need to copy from the most recent full fetish UI. If that fails I guess I'll just have to live with what I have.
