And is there anyway u could realease a version with the oldschool blue marble texture like they had before the new UI that would make this the ultimate oldschool ui.

Was hoping to do it today but had to goto work PotatoFarmer: 1st: I hope I can manage the new pet buffs in this UI.. Dunno how Im gonna do it yet.. 2nd: There's a patch somewhere in this thread that will do it for the current version.. But I will add it to the main UI downloads since that patch will be obsolete and I don't know why I left it out to begin with __________________ Talyns Lanys Characters: -Acarrion (51 BST) -Hawkren (20 SHM)

Talyns The Tablets Guy Join Date: Jul 2002 Server: Lanys Posts: 520	Adding the pet buffs to this UI is a PITA... I'm thinking, I may have to just leave em out but make it error free.. Or, take the pet window off the side panel there and make it like the default pet window... Only problem is then you'll have a giant blank spot there and I don't know what to fill in the gap with.. Would empty marble or wood look ok there? I can probably do both and leave it up to the user to decide also.. Any Ideas as to what to fill it up there with?

A new version is uploaded and awaiting moderation..

I decided to put the pet buffs under your buffs..

Only problem is only way to turn them off is by closing the pet window.. I included a pet window with no buffs if you don't need them there..

I also darkened the wood version a bit this time around...

Check it out here.

Enjoy

Sorry I missed this before...

First:
I dunno what's up with sidlwidl.. Doesn't like my coding style I guess

Second:
versions 1.0 - 1.2 had a version sorta like that and not many people downloaded it.. Maybe on some rainy day I will go ahead and re-do it but no plans for it at this time.. Sorry..

To everyone else:
The new version has been accepted and is ready for download.. You can use the links in the First Post.

Only thing i get bored with is staring at wood, wondering if you could load up that steel look that i see in alot of UI's. It would give me something to keep swamping out so i have constant eye candy. Plus im a very mechanical/techo drawn visual person. the steel IMO would work really well with the layout of this UI. Thanks in advance for any help. __________________ Cerra Sha'Kyrja - The Rathe

Seeiel A Wooly Rhino Join Date: Jul 2003 Posts: 75	I'm a big Pokemon fan and was wondering if you'd be able to make one with a collage of pokemon for the window scheme instead of wood or purple, etc... or if you could tell me how to do it on my own. Thanks in advance! __________________ POKEMON!

ÆÆÆÆ A Shissar Defiler Join Date: Oct 2003 Posts: 170	Tal - when I load your UI only the default comes up - no XML error in red in the chat window, just nothing... it loads for 3 mins then just the default UI appears. Why is this? Are the updated UIzips missing some XML files?

Talyns The Tablets Guy Join Date: Jul 2002 Server: Lanys Posts: 520	Sorry, About the delay with the patch and being MIA.. My game time ran out and I was going to try to break away from EQ/Modding.. But we all know how that goes.. I will see about adding the con idicator later in the week.. Should be usable for now.. Just won't get the con indicator in the target window.. Should get the ring if you did this . Thanks for pointing that out potato farmer.. I will fix that.. ÆÆÆÆ: I hope you got it working.. Sounds like you have a folder in a folder.. Let me know if you still need help.. Sorry Seeiel and Luminea.. I have no plans for any graphic mods.. Sorry to say it but: Really I have no plans for this UI besides keeping it updated for the patches.. If anyone wants to mod the graphics or tweak the UI feel free.. I originally created this mod for myself to use.. But I have moved on from it and created Tablets.. (which was originally going to be oldschool 3.0) Any one who uses this UI should check out Tablets set up with the 1024x768 viewport ini.. Last edited by Talyns : 11-10-2003 at 05:08 AM.

potatofarmer A Gray Wolf Join Date: Sep 2002 Posts: 5	12-18 patch As the 12-18 patch has brought in combat abilities, theres yet another window no1 has space for. I've seen the size of the combat abilities window.... and with smaller hotkeys it can be made a little bit smaller. Is there any way that combat abilities can be a tab (like inventory/clickies) with pet commands? I have 4 chat boxes (2 original that came with oldschool Main Chat and Melee/Spells, and 2 100% transparent windows above: Tells and Spam) so i have no more space for windows. It's too bad the window can't be minimized and have it flash when an ability is available. Anyway, I hope that the new window can be tabbed in (or maybe if it needs to be its own number, when you click on the II in pet window it goes 100% transparent and brings the abilities window to the front, and same for the abilities window when you click I). I love your UI Talyns and i hope you keep the updates coming =)
