I have my UI how I want it for the most part, except whenever I change the group window file, it reverts the whole UI back to default. I do not like my current one because you can see through it completely, which makes it hard to read in places with bright walls/backgrounds.

When I opened UIerrors.txt all it says is: UIErrorLog created at Sat Jul 07 12:28:25 2007

UI not in a group

UI in a group

It doesn't seem to matter what EQUI_GroupWindow.xml I insert, they all will revert me back to the entire default UI.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Have you tried just changing the alpha level of the window instead of replacing the XML file? It looks like the normal alpha of your window is set to 0 or very low. If it can be bumped up you should see the background of the window instead of just all the bars and buttons. Granted you won't get that empty space when not in a group (don't know if that matters to you or not) but at least you'd be able to read it when you are in a group.

generally when the UIErrors file just has that line in it, it means that you didn't look at the log file while EQ was running. when EQ exits, it erases that file.

to look at it before you exit -
try to load a ui that has been crashing you.
after it reverts you to default, alt-tab to get out of EQ but leave it running (you should have a button on your taskbar for it now).
open your EQ folder, and look for UIErrors.txt - copy it to your desktop.
now you can look at the copied file at your convenience.

Yes I played with all the settings on the window itself, none of that helps.

I am sure its related to the end of the uierrors message.

My UI isn't any one set of UI's but a combination of parts that I like from other UI and pieces, it appears that its related to the fact that I don't like the UI piece that came in the drakah set for the group window, because that window is far to large and doesn't display the information I am looking for. I just want to be allowed to put a smaller group window up that will show the health percentages of the group members next to their names without all the stats and stuff, I have that setup in a seperate window (friends box). Windows that aren't open all the time aren't as likely to be changed for me, because I just don't care about them all that much.

Looks like you are trying to use a window piece from another UI that is not a standalone but rather part of a complete UI set. As a general rule, you can not make a compilation UI from parts that come from complete sets when the complete set has a custom ini or animations file.

depending on what other mods you are trying to add in, you may be able to install the original complete set that the group window came from, then replace the parts you dont like with true stand alone parts.
