I made some small modifications to the DuxaUI that I wanted to share for anyone else that might want the same thing. Be aware, this is not a full UI, it is just the modified files which you overwrite the originals with. You must first have Duxa's UI installed. The two modifications are:

1) Ticks are added to the experience bar in the player window. You can get this modification by copying over the downloaded EQUI_PlayerWindow.xml & window_pieces06.tga files into your <EQ_root>/uifiles/duxaui folder and replacing when prompted.

2) The group window has larger text buttons for invite/follow and disband/decline. You can get this modification by copying over the downloaded EQUI_GroupWindow.xml file into your <EQ_root>/uifiles/duxaui folder and replacing when prompted.

These are pretty quick and dirty modification. I tried to trade off effort for just getting it to work passably. Let me know if you have any problems or suggestions, and if it isn't a major time sink, I'll try to look into it.

Vega, I really love what you did to the EXP bar. I was curious. Could you do this same thing for the p99 Vert EXP bar on the player window? It currently has no Blue bar or notches all the way across.

The blue bar itself is pretty easy to add back in. You can open up the EQUI_PlayerWindow.xml with like notepad++ and look for the element "Player_ExpGauge". By changing the <DrawLinesFill>false</DrawLinesFill> to <DrawLinesFill>true</DrawLinesFill> it will put back in the blue bar that Vert designed for that xp gauge. Adding back in the tick marks is a little trickier since you need to import the old image files, but can be done the same way I did the DuxaUI's one. If you don't want to get into it I can prob make you a custom one, perhaps put it up aswell if enough are interested.

After staring at the experience bar while leveling, I decided I didn't like the look. Shoehorning in the old xp bard didn't look quite right. The background wasn't as black as the other bars, and the style didn't fit. So I did what I promised myself I wouldn't, and adjusted the image file. I'm a horrible artist, but I think I was able to cut-and-paste it to make it look decent. The download should now contain the new image and player window files (you should replace both since I also slightly changed size/coordinates in player window gui). The image of the new xp bar is updated in the first post. If you want to compare you can see the OLD one again below:

p.s. - If for some odd reason you like the old one and didn't get it before, you can PM me. I didn't want to put them both up and have it be confusing.

I never include the Drawlines whenever there is a numbered % because its redundant (in my opinion) but like Vega said it's easy to edit yourself.
