looks like you have the new windows copied to your folder... dont need this unless you actually changed them. Also do you use a custom templates.xml?

Test Server and future UI collapses

i believe mines custom the template

this error also was when i used the default folder without that file in my ui

if use a custom template file need to do a compare between yours and default also

I personally use Vert, which in my opinion is just about the most bulletproof Custom UI in terms of patches. But atm I am getting massive UI errors. Currently I get about 70+ UI errors, this is 70+ different files, not single erros in a few files. I have worked and worked on fixing this errors but so far my efforts are futile, I have not even been able to load anything but the default UI no matter what modifications I have made.

When this goes live pretty much all Custom UI's are dead. So, if your modding a Custom UI, I strongly suggest you take the time to load onto Test in teh next few days and start to work on your changes. This isnt going to be a 2 file "wham bamm thank you mama" fix for anyone atm.

Interesting. I play on TEST almost everyday. I use a custom UI that is based on Drakah's Intergrated Steel version that has been modified with Aya's Big bank window, Darkmatil's Group Window, Mortis Player Window by Darkmatil, A Spell bar window with descriptions from a UI that I don't even remember whose UI it came from.

All with no errors at all.

They have added to the STML file on the test server to support the new windows.

Can someone help out?

I haven't played since January, decided to come back, DL'd the game (using testeverquest). Everything is fine, but I can't load any UI's I have tried the latest vert, blue infinity and a few others. When I attempt to load the UI, I reverts back to the default and I get the error "Couldn't open or read UIFiles\Default\EQUI_PetCommandSelectWnd.xml". I have researched that a bit and that file was removed from test in February. Why would my install be looking for it if it has been removed? I have deleted the UI_<server>_<player>.ini files, that didn't help. Any other suggestions on what I might do to get it running?

I post under this thread as I am running Win7, figuring it might have something to do with that.

Thanks!

Its probably still listed in your EQUI.xml file.

Just for fun, I logged into the Test Server with my current "EQ2 Integrated UI" to see if it is broke. -- still works fine and no update needed.

Looks like the only UI's that need to update are primarily the ones who have a custom Animations file.

Ya That Would Be Because Sony In Their Infinite Wisdom Rearranged Some Of The Names Of Stuff In Their Animations Today So It Threw Custom Animations Off...will Be Fixed Shortly
