* Important Info:
When extracting the files from kaoriv4.zip, make sure you have 'Use folder names' checked and extract to your /uifiles/ folder.

* How to change colors:
In your /kaoriv4/alternate/ folder, you will find 3 different folders for each color. Open the folder that contains the color scheme you want and copy those files to your /kaoriv4/ folder (choose overwrite files if you are asked).

* How to change class animations in your actions window:
In your /kaoriv4/alternate/ folder, you will find 15 different files, all numbered and labeled for each class. Find your class and re-name the file to EQUI_ActionsWindow.xml (without the number and class name). Then copy the file to your /kaoriv4/ folder (choose overwrite files if you are asked).

* How to change inventory slots of the extra tabs in your hotbuttons window:
If you are using the hotbuttons window with extra tabs (see instructions in the next heading on how to get it), you can easily change the slots you want to use. Open the EQUI_HotButtonWnd.xml file in wordpad or notepad and find the line "<!-- CAKE INJECTION POINT -->" (don't ask). For the next 20 pieces of code, you will see 'NewslotQ' where 'Q' is the slot number from 1 to 20. In each piece you will see <EQType>W</EQType> where 'W' is an eqtype number from 1 to 29. Just change 'W' to the eqtype number of the slot that you want:
1 is Left Ear
2 is Head
3 is Face
4 is Right
5 is Neck
6 is Shoulders
7 is Arms
8 is Cloak
9 is Left
10 is Right Wrist
11 is Range
12 is Hands
13 is Primary
14 is Secondary
15 is Left Finger
16 is Right Finger
17 is Chest
18 is Legs
19 is Feet
20 is Waist
21 is Ammo
22 is Inventory slot 1
23 is Inventory slot 2
24 is Inventory slot 3
25 is Inventory slot 4
26 is Inventory slot 5
27 is Inventory slot 6
28 is Inventory slot 7
29 is Inventory slot 8

The slots go in this order:
Tab 1 ---- Tab 2
1 6 ------ 11 16
2 7 ------ 12 17
3 8 ------ 13 18
4 9 ------ 14 19
5 10 ----- 15 20

* Other extras in your /alternate/ folder:
You will see a hotbutton window with extra tabs, a smaller compass window, and the textured target window from v3.0. If you want to use one of these files, rename the file to its proper name (by removing everything before EQUI_...) and copy the file into your /kaoriv4/ folder. There is also a tga file for your compass window that will display location signs (0, +, -), and if you want to use it, rename the file to window_pieces04.tga and copy it to your /kaoriv4/ folder.

* Other notes:
All windows in this UI are independent. That means that if you want to replace or delete one, you can do so without messing up any of the other windows. If you want to use a window from another UI, you should be able to, as long as it is compliant with the default UI (the one that came with the game). For example, you may want to use one of T.King's spellbooks or spell gem bars, or one of Arista's timers. T.Kings buff/gem icons also go nicely with this UI.
The EQUI_Animations.xml file is extra long in this version, so be careful when you are editing it. Do not use a different T.King inventory window unless you are experienced with xml, because all the inventory's Ui2D animations are now located in the EQUI_Animations.xml file. I moved them so that if you do not want to use the Standard Stone inventory included with the UI, you can delete it and use a regular one.

That about covers it. This post is subject to change.

Have fun!
