So, asking someone else to look in and see if they have any other suggestions. The ui they are trying to use is from the Mix and Match section, the druidui1. Questions already asked and answered: 1) No errors when trying to load, just goes back to default ui. 2) Nothing in UIError.txt log file. 3) Checked custom folder to make sure that files aren't in a subfolder. 4) Not using the /loadskin window, using the /loadskin customfoldername 1 command line. 5) No differences in capitalization. 6) eqclient.ini file: NewUI=True, UISkin=default. 7) UI_CharacterName_ServerNumber.ini file: UISkin=CustomFolderName. Also, they have tried using other ui's, and still no joy. Colour me stumped. Anyone else have a suggestion on what to check? __________________ "My friends, love is better than anger.

If its not, then they put it in the wrong place. If it is, then it might not be being spelled correctly in their player INI file. __________________ A Nasty Elemental with a Gnome Pet Gnomadic Arch Magus Officer of Dark Legion The Green Midget of Povar Brimzkinz Custom UI Forum

Haliken Quintessence of EQUI XML Join Date: Sep 2002 Posts: 773	But in game when you use /loadskin (with nothing after it) the custom UI folders don't show up correct (only default is an option)? Then EQ doesn't see the folders. Nothing else I can think of. Sorry.
