Thanks again.


Well I am glad you enjoyed the UI, I have several more modifications I am working on in this UI to make it more functional. some of which will be in the new release due out within I would say about a week. Keep you eyes open for it.

I would greatly appreciate any and all comments, concerns, or complaints. So that I can increase the effectiveness of this UI, and make it more user friendly. I will be releasing the update within the next day or two. to Version 0.88

Default Version 0.93 Available Now

All Window's are designed to be Semi-Transparent, and to be standalone along with their corresponding graphic. These are designed to allow for easy modification and/or corrections at a later date When EQ files are updated, as we all know happens frequentlty within EQ due to all the new content being added.

In this Update the Following were moddifed, added, or re-arranged:
I revitilized my Spell Bar from my Carbon Fiber UI and intergrated into this UI:
modded - EQUI_CastSpellWnd.xml

added - spellbar_pieces.tga
I revitilized my Spell Book from my Carbon Fiber UI and intergrated into this UI:
modded - EQUI_SpellBookWnd.xml
added - spellbook_pieces01.tga
added - spellbook_pieces02.tga
I revitilized my EQUI_BuffWindow.xml & EQUI_ShortDurationBuffWindow.xml from my Minimal Caster/Melee Series UI
and Updated it for 12 Songs and 25 Buffs and Intergrated it into this UI.
added - inventory_pieces.tga
modded - EQUI_Inventory.xml (added graphic's coding to window for later expansion - removed stats added class ani)
added - casting_gauge01.tga
modded - EQUI_CastingWindow.xml (made the casting window thinner and longer)
added - compass_pieces.tga
added - compass_gauge.tga
modded - EQUI_CompassWnd.xml (added primary stats to this seemingless worthless window - making it worthwhile)
modded - group_gauge.tga

Exclamation Add-ons Available.

Well after receiving several e-mails, tells in game, and getting some PM's, I decided to go and rework a few things. Since they were not for everyone who uses my UI, I decided to simply go and upload these minor modification as add-ons to the FORMAL FUNCTION User Interface. I made some optional changes to the Compass Stat Window, (removed the compass all together) Allowed for an Optional Download of the V0.88 Vertical Style Group Window(note health bars are taller and longer in this optional window) and I made several Graphic changes that you can find in the Graphic Update Package. So feel free to go to the FORMAL FUNCTION download page and take a glance at the add-ons I have placed up for download.

Very, very nice UI, just really need the compass. Maybe use friends window for stats and return the compass (just a suggestion). A must have for Ldon and DoN directions to instances and raids as well when raid leaders are giving compass directions to follow. Thanks for such a clean, functional UI and easy on the eyes too

I was unaware of the importance of the compass until I myself started doing the LDoN adventures. So I am going to be adding the compass back to the Stat Window, I have the design and code work already done, check out the Offical Download page at Formal Function Where I will upload the OPTIONAL Compass Window With STATS & COMPASS

I have also added it to this thread for quicker updating, by those of you whom whish to use it immediately.

Default Version 4.0 Due Out Soon

Yep you read it right. Version 4.0 is due out within the next few days, Lots of wonderful people have been shooting me ideas for the optional window design I thought up.. (Using the added hotbutton windows to make customized windows) Also just so you all know, I have launched my own site dedicated to keep up to date with my 3 beloved User Interfaces, as well as a forum for F.A.Q, Helpful tips, and on-going design discussion for these UI's.
Feel free to visit my site at

RJEWORKSHOP

and my discussion boards at

RJEWORKSHOP FORUMS

Easiest way to contact me due to a problem with one of my User Interfaces or to request a personal touch to the UI for yourself is through the forums listed on my site..

Thanx a TON
