Just want to let everyone know (especially those using my 'screen-wrapped' UI), that my UI has survived yet another patch without any major issues. There are a few minor cosmetic problems which are listed below.

- Backgrounds may not appear the same as before (green texture will be replaced with old stone texture). This is due to changes in the EQUI_Animations.xml (Animations) file. ** No longer an issue in the latest version

- Spell gems may appear to be a bit off in size and placement. This is also due to changes in the Animations file. ** No longer an issue in the latest version

There may be a few other minor cosmetic flaws that I have not yet noticed, but for the most part, my UI has once again avoided the patch assassin.

** Note: If you are using my modified compass, your UI may not load due to a duplication in 'UiD2Animations'. This has been addressed and a new version is available which prevents this from occurring in the future.

For updates to my UI and mods, please visit my website. If you wish to download the files directly, choose one of the links below.

download Compass mod in Zip format ** Compass mod included in Canopy UI

Keldrane try this,

1. Delete your default folder, repatch EQ but dont play the game.
2. If you still have the zip version of your current UI and any add ons you might have put in it. Rename your UI folder name and then unzip your Mod into the name you used to call it.
3. Now Run EQ.
4. When you go on in your character if your old UI doesnt work then type /loadskin <UIName> 1 (like you would the old way)

I have yet to get the loadskin window to work.
If you still have problems leave game and go to your default directory and copy these 2 files to your UI Folder:
EQUI.xml
Sidl.xml

Then retry running EQ and follow steps 4 if needed listed above.

Hope this helps

or use the /loadskin customskinname 1 command in game.
looks to me like he tried the menu selection via the new window.
I got the same error it doesnt supply a skin name even tho you selected it from the list.

This should be a VI bug.

You can get by that by going back to the old /loadskin name command from the chatwindow.

Are you trying to use the Loadskin window? Don't bother with it if you are. Just use /loadskin <skinname> 1

Also make sure you do have the newUI turned on.

From your post, it looks as if you are not putting your skin in the right place. Inside the 'uifiles' folder, make a new folder ('Canopy' for instance). Then unzip the UI you downloaded into that new folder. Then when you enter Everquest, type /loadskin Canopy 1 or replace 'Canopy' with whatever you want to call the new folder.

the 'Canopy' version is the same layout and design as my previous versions, yes. The differences are:

1) I gave it an actual name for once,
2) I changed the color scheme (altho the colors were actually changed some time ago),
3) previous releases used an altered EQUI_Animations.xml file, this latest version uses it's own Animations file and it's own Template file so that future patches and changes to the UI by Varent will not effect the functionality of this skin, and
4) the compass mod was causing crashes in some cases because it was duplicating animations that were also found in the EQUI_Animations.xml file.

This new release has been structured in such a way that, if Varent makes further changes to the UI by adding more windows, or changing any of the animations, textures, or templates, those changes will not effect my skin because 'Canopy' uses all of it's own textures, animations, and templates instead of relying upon the default files.

I found that if you are having problems with the loadskin mod if you turn off newui and /loadskin default 1 then log out and let the patch of 10/16 do its thing log into eq and do /newui and log out you loadskin pop and some of them will not do on the loadskin key you have to type it. and if you get nothing you /loadskin default 1 then it should pop silly and time consuming but i find it to work most of the time

I am using Rytains newest ui. While things<so far> seem to be working correctly - I get a error when logging in and after zoning. It states something like Some of your XML files are not compatible bla bla bla type /loadskin default to return to the default skin.

What can I do to fix this??

quick question, after you open xml file by using wordpad, when i click to save it, it says you are saving in text format ... is that ok? Still cant get vert to work for some reason


someone please telling me what im doing wrong!

I freshly downloaded vert crystal meth.

opened the animations file with word pad

copy and pasted the code, at the very end of xml before the /xml

save it, it says "you are about to save in a text format, this will remove all formatting" i click yes

Run eq, and type /loadskin filename 1 , and it goes to default

any suggestions please?
