Go buy a computer newer than 1990, use a different UI (not like this is being forced on the EQ community at large), or try blue infinity ui!....
ANYWAYS....
Now to a good idea in the making here....

As you have seen this one has not been updated a little over 2 years, what you could do is down load it, all the patches that are listed install them in the directory/folder so that you have all the most up-to-date files for it.

Once you have that set up, /loads Delta4 and see what happens

It will either:
1. Load just fine with red text saying your UI files are out of date...
2. Error out and Load Default (most likely, read UIerror.txt to see what went wrong)
3. Crash EQ to desktop and no ui file errors even get a chance to load (lots o work here)

Hopefully someone will tackle this ui and spellbar for me i tried to learn how to do it myself but couldnt find any good guides on starting out

The someone will more than likely be you, if you take over Delta4 (many will love you if you do) you can learn how it works here one file at a time.

When I came back and took over DeltaX with tons of windows and graphic files this is how I was able to break it down and fix it. (you may find the spell bar easier to tackle right off the choice is yours)

Odds are you will encounter problem #2 above. and here is an easy (but not fast) way to fix this problem

1. Strip all files out of Delta4 folder and make and put them in lets say D4Broke Folder
2. Grab 1 XML file (probably the group window) and put it back in the Delta4 folder
3. Open that XML file and do a Search for .PNG and .TGA (their may be others used but unlikely)
4. Copy from the D4Broke folder any PNG & TGA files found in the XML your going to edit
5. Now back in EQ /load Delta4 and see what happens
6. You will need to Look at the /Everquest/UIErrors.txt file and see what has ERROR next to it WARNINGS are fine.
7. If you are not able to understand what the error is or have any clue how to fix it, Post the section from the UIErrors.txt that has the ERROR entries.
8. We should be able to help you go through and fix this UI 1 window at a time till you get up to speed and no longer need us... /sniff
