v1.021 Minor grapic update
Group Window
+Player, Target Colors Match rest of group window...
(this prevents targeting someones corpse that has been rezed so show they are in zone at 0%)
-Spell Casting Bar that showed in Target Window has been removed...
(coming soon Blinking Group Menbers and Your HP when below 40%)

Target Window
+Spell Cating Bar now shows below Targets Buff Window

Pet Window
+Pet Color Now Matches Group Members Pet HP bar (same shade of green stands out a bit more and matches rest of UI)

The discipline window is not counting down.

Are you refering to the gauge or an actual numeric timer?

Gauge: On the right it moves in every zone I have been in excluding guild hall and lobby (where timers dont count down)

Numeric Timer: not aware if there is a <EQType> for that but will check.

Dimencia

is mission claim window bugged
 

i couldnt claim a reward for a mission i did

You may want to delete the "EQUI_ClaimWnd.xml" from your ui default directory, and re-download.
DeltaX (1280x1024) has no modificatons to the Claim window.

Dimencia

One minor request, or maybe I'm missing something. When I do a Monster Mission, I can't see my mana without hitting I, since there's no spellcasting bar in use (it's all AA-style spells).


Any way to make the mana amount visible somewhere else? Do it so that if mana=0 it's invisible or something, that way it won't clutter up a melee's screen.

Thats sounds like a good idea, however I dont normaly do MM's, what would you suggest?
-Guage?
-100%?
-Actual Number?

Currently im about 60% done on a total overhall on this ui, from the ground up, so now is the best time to add that in.
Grapic Memory used should drop to aprox 20% of current usage.

Oh during MM's are their any other windows that are disabled besides the spell casting one?

Dimencia

i would say gauge/percent for the mana. the monster missions don't tell you how much mana a given thing costs, so all you really have to go on is how much of your bar it uses.
it wouldn't hurt to have numbers - but i don't think it's necessary.

in other things though - could we possibly get the mana/end display for group members to be just a bit bigger? it's practically impossible to see on my boyfriend's screen. it looks like (though i haven't actually looked at the code) that they are currently about 1 pixel tall - if they could be 2 or 3, that would probably be perfect. if they're actually currently 2 (which could be, i don't know), then i would suggest 4 or 5. Also, I'm not sure why the HP gauges are purple/maroon - is there a reason for that?

kudilukudzu you are correct on the size of the Mana End Bars, they are in fact only 1 pxl tall, can double them easily.

I personaly keep (from ingame) the endurance bars shut off (right clicky on group window) never really cared about someones endurance...


As for the colors...
When SOE changed up the staying grouped on LD/camp and able to click on them, during raids it could look as if some one was Full Health ready to go when infact they were LD or out of zone only the % of 0 vs 100 would show the diffrence...
This was a temp fix for what is taking place behind the purple bars....
(i can put in a 2nd version of the group xml that has red bars np)

v2.0 will have animated guages that will start a heart beat the lower the hp's go of group memebers, stands out very well from the purple bars currently.

If anyone has a better idea where to put the end bar vs it cramed above the mana bar/player name open to suggestions on that one too

the current version was basicly a repair of this UI to get it stable for SoD..

Dimencia

ok. i think that having them at the top is just fine, just a little thicker so you can actually see them. there's plenty of room there. i was actually going to go in and hack that out myself for my BF in a bit. I would make sure that the end is on top, with mana below it - because everyone has end, but not everyone has mana.

as for the color, i have never seen that issue. i can tell very easily on my group window if someone is in zone or not, and it just looks like they're not in zone if they're camped out (except that the name is grey instead of white). so i guess i've never had that problem. :)

I can tell you that having animated stuff would annoy the crap out of me, so i hope you have a static option available. :) i think it would annoy the BF too, but not sure.

thanks for doing all this work btw.

I belive 2.000 now has all requests covered, if something else comes up just ask.

I will also be including a Thin gauge version of the group window too, due to on my monitors the bars are HUGE now at just 2 pxl's

Resizing
 

Is there a easy way to resize the ui for a 1440x900 resolution, i have a large monitor and you default takes up a lot of room, otherwise this is a very nice ui. one other note is that the buff icons seem to be off center after the first one.
And the potion belt is not able to click the potions. :)

Potion belt dont seem to click tha items in it for me.

Colored Buff Tabs
 

One of the things which drew me to this UI several yrs ago was the color coded buff tabs (blue =bene, red = detri). One of the patches a while back removed this functionality from an older version I had and it seems this newer one also does not retain colored buff tabs. I think it has something to do with the animations file as the tab colors are back when using the default animations file.

I'd love if you do a small mod to bring this feature back.

In either case, thanks very much for picking up this UI.

I did a fast emergency patch to get it un-defaulting around noon today, and am currently going through this to fix the bugs, next update 2.012+ will have the buffs fixed.

Potion belt.. im working this little bugger now.. it should be working but its not /boggle


(collor tabs) this i had working for like 2 reloads of the ui then they went away, will probably reestablish this (if i can figure it out) with 2 versions avail the colored and current

Hoping to have this re uploaded wihtin the hour

Dimencia

Would like to see a cast timer like the old DeltaX and DeltaCN ui's had instead of spells just being greyed when cast.

v2.012
Buff Window & Short Buff window
-Icons now line up with their text
Potion Belt
-Can now click on your potions vs just look at how pretty they are
Target Window
-Color changed for Spell Casting Gauge (has been there since v2.001 however was a very dark blue)
-This guage has been the width of the targets buff list
Selector Window
-Didnt knowtice any impact to this window, if you encoutner issues please let me know

Dimencia

I am unable to change font size other then that this rocks, Thanks for getting it up so fast.

Map
 

Is there a way to make the map resizable? i have problems reading the map at that size and the scroll bars don't work on the map you have to use the arrows.
Thanks for the hard work. :)

ATK and CON
 

I'd like to see both the ATK and CON displays to be larger/thicker. They're a little small/thin for my liking. It looks like with the way they are placed it would definately be possible to make them larger within the triangle parts they are in. Other than that this UI is great. Thanks for the fast updates. Keep up the great work.

Which fonts are you trying to change?


Aye the map was a rush deal, ill look into making all aspects streatchable, not sure if it is or isnot possible but will give it a try as well as clean up the coding on it a bit (seems ever 100 zones or so will cause a crash to desktop)

oh sorry chatfont the IG command did not work for me.

Buff Icon/Text
 

Downloaded the new version around 9pm PST and installed. I noticed that the buff Icons were not lined up with the buff text.

I just read that you had fixed the issue at about 7:30p. Will redownload and install and try again.

Where did you move the EQ button so one can access the new "Sony Store"?

EQ Button
 

the EQ button is on the far right above potions and below buffs
(it looks just like a buff slot icon till you move mouse over it)

/ChatFont
 

hmm kinda at a loss on this, just tried it on several systems and /chatfont 1-5 worked fine.

Though on one i had to turn off always chat here from Main Chat window to adjust other windows font size...

The UI should not be able to affect the /chatfont command what so ever

Dimencia

Selector Window Bug...
 

Ill work on the Selector Window Bug to restore the buttons to normal use

Current bug requires you to have to click top or bottem of the button, clicking middle of the button no longer seems to work..

I have no idea how SoE broke this one but hope to have it updated around 8pm EST

Dimencia

I am currently using this on a 1920x1200 resolution, and it still works out pretty well, and doesnt fill my screen like many other UI's out there, Instead of it being centered, it is off to the right, with a couple extra chat windows filling up the dead space on the other side. which works perfect for me cuz i need 5 chats or ill go crazy. Only bugs ive found have already been noted, potions arent clickable from potion belt, buff icons dont line up. and changing font size worked fine for me, only other thing, and its not a bug, just a personal preferance, would be to rearange Target, Hott, and player HP windows. my hp gague being right by the target instinctively makes me think those are target and hott, when they are player and target, while hott is buried down under party member hp/mana bars. takes a lil getting used to. but other than that so far so good.

Thanks
 

Thanks Dimencia,

I must have had an older version, so I downloaded version 2.0012 and everything is working fine. Also found the EQ Button per your instructions. Thanks for such fast replies!

:nana: :nana: :nana:

Is there anyway you could add a file for peopel that want horizontal buff bar LOVE tha ui just would liek a horizontal one =) thank you for fixing potion belt
