first off i just wanted to say that i love that someone is still keeping this ui alive and kicking. its one of my favorites because of the combo pet/clickie/player box. that box makes using clickies and getting and using ones from invientory bags so much easier.

that being said there are a few things that i noticed that need a minor adjustment. the first is the HP display on the target bar. with base hp over 10k i noticed that most of the time it will only display 4 digits of the hp total. so in effect 12345/12345 becomes 2345/1234.
the second thing that i noticed is that the chat boxes are missing the top portion that allows you to drag the box around on the screen. there is a small section on the top but for some reason i cannot get the crossed arrows that allows you to drag the box around. i can only resize the box to move it like an inchworm.

i would also like to ask what the process would be in order to change the color of the boxes if possible? the blue is nice and i have used it for a long time but i wonder hot i can mix it up a little and make another version that is say orange. that way i can switch back and forth when i wanted to.

Fazor, you did a great job on this ui and my hats are off to you. thanks for keeping me in the good stuff for another expansion. anything i an do to help let me know, and i appreciate you time and help.

I love the delta based UI's ..and I certainly hope this UI gets an update soon for the last expansions.

Sorry for slow response, been crazy going out of town and stuff... Also, this was my first upload so I didn't follow directions and make a release post for you so thank you for doing so for me. :-)


The update should have this fixed and moved to the Combat Ability Bar or the SpellGems bar. (You're currently SoL if you do a monster mission since you don't get either window up so it'll just look funny.)


You can just delete the ChatWindow XML file to get the titles back or drag like an inchworm. I prefer to drag here and there and then have more readable space than the titles.


Colors are all set in the Targa images. They are easy to edit with any decent image editor (I used Photoshop 6.0 for any changes that I made). Make sure you read up on the Alpha channels in case you want to change more than the colors.


Thanks for the compliments and I hope to keep this UI current.

I'll look into this, I thought I got all the textures for newer items. (Was a long time since I bothered fixing the animations file for dragitems.)

=> I looked into it again and couldn't find any potions with necklace graphics. I specifically check the Healing Potion X for it. If you have something specific I can check, please respond but I think it's working. To be extra safe, I'll re-update the zip file to make 100% sure it is current.

Fazor-

Great UI, and I very much appreciate you updating it.

I tried using the latest update and I'm still having issues with items showing up as pearl necklaces as well. Some specific items for me are- Choker of One Hundred Diamonds, Russet Rockscale Armguards, and Fang of Kessdona. I've tried a clean install and these items still are not working.

Also, and this may very well be an error on my part, but I can't figure it out: when I tried the updated version, the screenshots showed for pure melee that endurance would show on the bar, but mine still shows mana. If you could point me in the right direction with fixing this, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks again for the hard work.

Somehow the last time I updated the ZIP it didn't take. It should be better now but if you gimme a day or two I'll add 1280x1024 to the INI's (I use 1280x960 and forgot to worry about other 1280 x ? resolutions.) Hopefully, with the current ZIP the STA bar for melee and the necklaces should be fixed.

Updated:

1) New Raid Window (made it cleaner and more user-friendly). I probably missed a few bugs as it's hard to test this w/o raiding.

2) Added mods from EQInterface-Misc for DynamicZone and TradeSkills windows. <not my work on these>

3) Updated INI's to work for 1280x1024

Thanks for updateing this UI for use with DoDH. just have run into 1 problem with it. Namely the chat and tell windows can't be moved or for that matter closed. Got just a bit dicey when i got a number of tells back to back, almost completely obscureing my view of the mob i was fighting. Otherwise my UI of choice.

Kjan

Nice UI, but could you replace the 2nd bank which shows inv slots with bags and clickies to the show the 2nd hotkey bank, don't fancy my 2nd hotkey bar to take up space on the screen.

Thanks

Great Work! I'm gonna start using it tonight!

Any chance at getting a Horizontal Buff bar? Kinda hard to fit the Song Bar down the side with the Buff Bar. Maybe shrink 'em a little if not?

How about an Attack indicator. I know it is a PITA and I'm a big boy Warrior but I like having that thing.

Thanks for the work!

Attack indicator is around the target. Will probably never do horizontal buffs as that makes it really messy with the labels imo since there isn't a way to have the text rotated and I like small buff icons. However, I plan to have a reverse buff option for both short and long buff windows. DoD is taking up most of my time so I haven't done much lately. I plan to make a nice horizontal bank that has all bank bags on the left (in columns of 2) stuff in middle and then inventory bags on right. Should be nice when opening up all your bags to locate/move things.

Gazzaz

I found the attack indicator. Had the Thing Faded all the way out. Thanks!


I know what you mean about the Horiz buffs. I found some that work. Saves a lot of room up top but trying to find out time remaining on all of them is annoying.

Thanks again bro. Really great work!

Hi Fazor,
1st of all , I like to thank you for making the effort on the revival of this great UI. You have make the UI continues through the next expansion The new Hott button is kewl since we have to keep pressing the HoTT button on the old Delta to pop it

A little suggestion I would like to add to make this great UI better is to make a small personal tribute timer next to the compass window. A countdown timer and current favor is good enough.

But overall, best UI ever!! Keep it up!!

EDIT: Well, I never thought to look at the pure melee version...d'oh. On the plus side, I got a crash course in XML.

I was looking for a way to get rid of the horizontal spell bar, but not lose the flow of the interconnected graphics. As a complete XML noob, I fumbled my way through it, and actually made something that worked. Got the Combat Abilities moved onto the spell bar, which involved using Photoshop to adjust the image.

If any Hybrids don't like the horizontal spell bar, I suggest using the Pure Melee version, and just replace the EQUI_CastSpellWnd.xml file with whatever else you have. It's much easier.
