Simple Experience Bar, 99.9%, 100% debt display, Zone name

silvrwolf · #1 12-15-2004, 04:39 AM

Well, after being somewhat pleased with a variety of experience bars, I went to the effort of making my own Exp bar.

Single Bar, switchable to Tradeskill. Xy.z% xp display, Xy% debt display in red, zone name above bar.

The zone name INCLUDES the Instance # (by some miracle of foresight on SoE's part).

This is my first attempt at editing the UI. Any criticism will be greatly appreciated.

[update] Tradeskill XP is fixed, although it does not show an Xy.z% display.

Is there no way to just show the % of debt a person has and not the 64% actually xp 67% shown debt 3% real debt.

Something like (bear in mind I don't know xml so don't know if variables or something like them are even possible) xpdebt - xpgained = debt ?

It's a small annoyance to be sure, but looking at it and if you didn't know any better you'd think you have 67% xp debt when you really only have 3%.

Normally, I would say yes, and add in a simple math function.

However, I'm not all That familiar with XML, and the EQ2 parser isn't your standard XML parser, I'm sure.

I did post a question regarding XML math functions and have yet to receive a response, and until that time, I'm not sure how to go about it. For now, we're stuck with a "full" debt%. If you've seen a debt percent that's adjusted in this fashion, please let me know where so I can take a look at it. =)

I will try and figure it out, but I can't make any promises as I've seen no method for using math functions inside the XML pages.
