Bag/Box Sizes Keep Auto Resetting

[jdawgg]

ok here is my issue and I hope i explain it the right way. My UI is made up of pieces of Drums UI and some others. For some reason 2 of my bank bags and 1 of my shared bank bags keep resetting to default (huge) size. Each and every time i reset them to the custom size i want (size 29, spacing 0) they stay that way till i log. But once i come back in they are right back to default again. Not ALL bags do this either, just 2 bank ones and 1 shared bank one. The shared bank one just started doin this and the other 2 have been doing it for a while now. Is this a problem heard of before or do i need to fix something? Also, will i have to go back to default (which does this also) or should i post screenshots? Just let me know and I will help where ever i can. Thank you

what I did to fix this was camp out of game.

Then go into notepad or your favorite editor and open the character's ini file, found in the Everquest2 directory.
ie: Guk_Depechenode_eq2_uisettings.ini CORRECTION--> Guk_Depechenode_eq2_uisettings.XML
Scroll until you see: <Module Name="Inventory" window_version="36">

then look for the first line starting like this:
<Window Name="Bag_clone_0_-3" alignment="16" alig.......(long line)
Select that line and everything under it until you see:

<Window Name="Bank" alignment="14" alignment_offset="-78,-65" locked="true" size="531,166" />

DELETE everything you selected but NOT the last line mentioned above.

RELOG into EQ2 and (yes I am sorry), reset ALL bags, bank, inventory..any bags you have, all slots. Then CAMP.

Log back in...and voila FIXED.

Previous theories states only deleting the odd bag_clone_255 etc, but I found this does not work.. What I described does work. I used it and my bags are staying placed/sized every log on.


I hope that all makes sense, easier to "speak instructions" rather than type them out

tried to open with notepad and all i got was jibberish? is there a free download program/editor i could use? or do i need to change it in notepad somehow?

UPDATE:

even when i went to download a free .ini editor i got the same thing. square boxes all over the place with words just spaced out here and there. Another problem?

The file extension isn't ini anymore. Was changed to XML several game updates ago.

So you'll want to find your characters setting file for example

Guk_Depechenode_eq2_uisettings.xml (not .ini)

You can in fact delete the character .ini files

yup i found it under .xml....worked fine and is going good now...thanks

opps yea .xml sorry was really tired when I typed that reply. Again sorry for the confusion.
