Would like the player window to display the Experience window.

Howcome · #1 02-25-2005, 03:40 PM

I dont know if this is possible, but I would like the player window to include both Experience values of Adventure/Tradeskill/Vitality, Classes, Time/Date, Zone Name and Time. The experience values please make digital to include decimals.

I would like the character stats showing health and pwer on the right hand side of the UI.

Don't know if this is possible to show the casting bar and the compass window.

Something like Daimonds player windows but with the exp also shown in bars or Laffs player window without the maintained spells showing. I also like the Tking Celtic Player window but dont like the border on it.

Please help me with this. I would do myself but have no knowledge on how to make or edit a UI (XML).

Thank you.

The only thing you mention that is not possible (to my knowledge, is adding in the compass window)

The rest can be done yes,

I would be happy to make this for you but would help a lot if you could maybe take a screenshot of the window and edit it in some grafix program as to where you want the bars etc placed , it dont have to be uber grafix lol just an insight into the layout you want...

That go's for the window that I have in the downloads, the others you mentioned I am not familiar with, so if you want it based on one of their's, maybe they can help you out.

Thank you for helping me with this.
Ok I hope this helps. The changes I want.
You can change the layout if needed.

Laffs · #4 02-25-2005, 09:11 PM

Oks thats good

Looks like I can do that stuff for you, Give me a couple of days though please, as I have a ton of work to get through lol.

nice work there

Laffs · #7 02-26-2005, 12:59 PM

Is this anygood?

Made from bits of my stuff and bits from others lol

Its a hybrid if you like

Howcome · #8 02-26-2005, 01:19 PM

Laffs,

Thank you very much. It looks great

Thanks for taking the time to do this for me

I hope others use this also.

Howcome · #9 02-26-2005, 01:59 PM

When going into EQ2 I noticed that the weight factors are being cut off including a screen shot.

Other than that everything looks great.

I dont know if u can add %'s to the health and power bars also?

Laffs · #10 02-26-2005, 02:23 PM

Ah I am playing at about 1280 so that dont happen with mine, I will adjust it shortly and add in the power and health % 's

Looks like it needs to be a bit wider for you also

Howcome · #11 02-26-2005, 02:36 PM

Laffs, Thank you again

Laffs · #12 02-26-2005, 02:39 PM

See the edited post above for the file lol let me know how it is as it havent tested it at 1024

*EDIT* I think this edit to the last file may be better than the wider window, version I did, changed Wgt to just W and moved the value over and also moved the zone name over to the left a bit more also.

Howcome · #13 02-26-2005, 07:29 PM

Laffs,

I checked out the UI and looks great. I liked the first edit you made not the last one that you linked. Just didnt look right on my screen.

Thank you for all the hard work you have done for me

Thanks again.

Laffs · #14 02-26-2005, 07:36 PM

No probs

Glad I was able to get you fixed up, if on your travels you find stuff dont look right send me a screenshot and I will try fix it for you .. May put both versions in the downloads section, So looks like your the beta tester so to speak hehe..

Gl bud , and thanks for your thanks

Howcome · #15 02-26-2005, 07:38 PM

Laffs,

I use your targeting window and when I select target it is just showing the stuff on the right side which I dont mind but then the window is to large, it has dead space. See screen prints.

Thank you.

Howcome · #16 02-26-2005, 07:40 PM

Funny you said that because I work in Quality Assurance at my company

Thats all I do is test stuff and try to break it

Thank you again.

Laffs · #17 02-26-2005, 07:43 PM

Lmao kool...

Oks I know there is some bugs with that target window... going to take a shower and will adjust the one I made for the nedra UI to be a standalone one (shouldnt take long, me thinks) and will post the edited file here , its almost the same as the one you have already but without the size issue lol

Stay tuned as they say ...

P.s And hey stop breaking my mods ! Heheh

Howcome · #18 02-26-2005, 07:48 PM

Laffs,

Funny hehe
That is your UI that I am using.
I think it just needs resized.

I'm not trying to break your stuff

But thanks on your quick attention to the matter.

Talk with you soon.
No rush though.
Have some stuff to do before logging back in.

Take care.

Laffs · #19 02-26-2005, 08:08 PM

oks me back and on it now

I will edit this last post here to include the files,

Btw the Nedra UI is by Malnedra, She/he gave me permission to play with it a bit so my mods to it are under Laffs alt Nedra and stuff like that... Hang on lol if you using Nedra UI then just download this http://www.eq2interface.com/download...fo.php?id=3471

Thats my mod to the Nedra UI for target and implied target windows upto date, If I picked you up wrong and Nedra UI is not your base UI then I will edit those so they will work for you

Howcome · #20 02-27-2005, 10:59 AM

Laffs,

I've tried them both and I'm getting the same thing as in the screen shot?

I should have stated that in the earlier post.

Laffs · #21 02-27-2005, 01:23 PM

Made an update to the other one, but its pending

I have checked them both and the max and minimum sizes are set correctly, I asume the view you are using is the "simple" one this was and old problem that I fixed a while back, Are you sure that the new files have overwritten the old ones in your UI folder? just a thought.

I am working on the "simple" view over the next week anyway so hopefully this should clear it up, if the above is not the case

Howcome · #22 02-27-2005, 01:56 PM

Man it takes a while to be approved for download.

I went to the other Player window with the wgt change as the player window still had problem with the weight being cut off.

Also I actually deleted the targeting xml files before downloading new ui ?

Thanks again

P.S. The health and power bars are not displaying the percentages.

Laffs · #23 02-27-2005, 02:11 PM

I think there must be an alignment problem when you go below 1280 x 1024 as that is the resolution I made these items at, will look into this further... Also I think I have broken my UI builder lol as its hit and miss if it saves the edited files correctly lmao ... Time to unzip another I thinks

Howcome · #24 02-27-2005, 02:14 PM

Laffs,

Sorry to hear that you are having problems with the UI Builder.

I switched my resolution to 1280 x 1024 and still getting problem with the weight being compressed.

I'll talk to you soon

Laffs · #25 02-27-2005, 02:49 PM

Oks here is a zip of the player, implied and target xml , straight out of the UI file that I am using in game.... They work at my 1280 and the windowed mode of the game is 1024 and they work like that also (well for me at least hehe)

Thanks for sticking with me on this, Fingers crossed those ones should work for you also...

As a thought your not testing monitors to destruction at the moment are you ? and maybe you plugged the wrong one in hehehe
