Default /loadskin doesn't show anything but default

I currently am using the default UI, and I'd like to use lodidodi. I've always used it in the past with no trouble, but quit playing and deleted EQ, so I just reinstalled it when I started up again. In my UI directory is "default" and "default_old" which were put there when I installed/patched EQ. Then I downloaded lodidodi and put it into it's own LodiDodi folder. However, when I go in game and /loadskin, or go through my options menu to get to where I select which UI I want, ONLY default shows up, and not any of the other folders that are in my uifiles directory. I am, needless to say, completely stumped as to why it won't let me select another UI, and any insights would be greatly appreciated.

Couple things you may have already done..
  • make sure the folder u pot lodi in has no spaces in the name IE nospaces_ui
  • make sure u actually unzipped the file into this new UI folder.

It is exactly named "LodiDodi" and I tried again, just to be certain, but I unzipped the files into that folder.. they're not like, another lodiodi folder inside the folder or anything by mistake.

might you have two instances of EQ installed on your computer? if so is your desktop shortcut running from the right one?

Unfortunately, many UI's on this site simply do not work in whole, even when installed perfectly. I have tried several reasonably up-to-date mods that just will not load once in game at all. It's very hard for most people to troubleshoot a broken UI when it's an all or nothing crapshoot on getting them to work in game .

True but lodi is not one of those for sure =) I just ran across this issue with a friend. I deleted all UI's other than default re-downloaded Lodi and *ping* no issue's. I didn't try to load his but i will say that if add files to lodi IE equi.something.xml and they aren't added to the equi.xml the custom ui usually does not load.

format would be
<Include>EQUI_something.xml</Include>
