Need some other brains working on this one
 

I've had someone come to me with a problem, and everything I can think of hasn't worked. 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?

The person have the new UI turned on?...

When they type /loadskin ....
 

and they get the little default loadskin window, is the new UI's directory listed in it?

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.

#6 above


I'm not sure. Trevor?

Yes newui is turned on
loadskin window does come up, but there is only default file in it.

Do you have your custom UI folders as subfolders below \uifiles or below \Skins? I'd bet you put them below \Skins, they need to be subfolders of \uifiles, understand?

No it is in the uifiles

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.

Yes default is the only option, thank you for your input:)

What operateing system? Are you useing winNT/2000/XP ? If so you might want to check your folder permissions.

Its a long shot but thats all I got. hehe

yes using XP where would i find permissions at?

LOL
 

LOL did you forget about our local gm's? they know almost all the new bugs:nana: :nana: :eek:

Having the same problem. Using xp.


--Chang

What is the full path to the mod folder?

Oh and do you have XP home or Professional?

folder is in Program Files> EQ > Uifiles

The folder is aptly titled CHANG.

XP is the OS i am using.
