Unhappy some dialog boxes are black

i've noticed that since the expansion that some NPCs when talking to them i get only black boxes vs the text of what they are saying. the same goes for the multiple choice responses - they are all black.

ideas/suggestions on what to rename/delete to fix this?

This was an issue that came in with DoV, should be a few posts popping up in search.

Basically you may need to delete commonelements.dds from your install (it'll be in the /images subdirectory of your Fetish folder).

I have noticed the same problem the last couple of days. But it does not seem to be an issue at the moment. Its mostly been on repeatable quest stuff.

It's the heritage quests that had the problem, since they changed them to use a special fancy dialog look to make it more obvious that it's an "important" quest.

You can try copying the file I mentioned from the default to your Fetish folder and see if that fixes it.

You are missing an image file. You need to clear your browser history/cookie then download the latest patch, making sure to completely replace your images folder. This problem was resolved quite a while back.

Your copy is missing something, an image file. The images folder I am referring to is the one inside your fetishUI folder.
Deleting the browser cache helps because sometimes your browser will try and download an older version instead of the newest, so be sure when you're downloading the latest patch that it is the correct patch number.

I forgot to add, you'll also need the xml file where the new button image was added in, so you're better off just copying the entire patch for Fetish over, not just the images folder. Sorry, that just occurred to me...

Angry arrgh

i complete redownloaded fetish again, extracted it, merged in the patches that are post 11.9 and moved it to my eq2\ui folder tree. i deleted the old fetish folder prior to the new folder coming in.
i also have eq2map, which brings down map updates, but i doubt that is the issue.

still get the black dialog for the NPC i mentioned in one of my earlier posts to the thread.

so what "image" file am i missing?

Ok fresh install of Fetish 11.9, so did you download and install this patch after the reinstall of Fetish v11.9?

http://www.eq2interface.com/download...GU61Patch.html

If so, the only thing I can think of is that you have a copy of EQ2 somewhere that you don't seem to be aware of that the game is actually using, that is not where you're making these changes.

Unhappy patches

yep - there are 2 other patches in between those as well.
i only have 1 copy of eq2 (new PC, about 10 months old), and i make sure that eq2map is launching using this UI vs the default.

Once the basic Fetish (v11.9) is installed, the only thing you need to do to it is install the patch that I linked in my last post. The two other patches you're talking about are not necessary
