Classic UI Thread

[Stinkum]

If it's the same one from before it has a lot of bugs and crashes often.

[Stinkum]

Glad to hear it.

I personally insist on playing P99 in "Windowed" mode, so, the 640x480 resolution isn't really practical, since my native resolution is 1,400+ and it just ends up being a situation where I have to play P99 in a tiny ass window. Otherwise I would use this.

[a_gnoll_pup]

First up, thanks for working on this. At least I am not the only one who is a complete masochist when it comes to wanting classic windows.

- The effects button on the right hand side cannot be placed there properly without rendering the rest of the UI useless due to interface pieces not having the functionality to allow the user to click "through" transparent portions of the UI to click on the viewport. The bar on the left next to the spell bar is essentially the bar that pops up when you press alt+w, thus I'm sure you can understand why the "Effects"/buff button needs to be placed in that area like I'm demonstrating in my screenshot. Ultimately that's probably what's going to happen, but I feel that the thoughts of those who would be using it could help be beneficial.

I believe P99 has the ability to add custom windows on a per-need basis so it may be possible (via the injected DLL) to add in window elements that you would need. Your best bet would be using something like MQ2 (NOT ON P99 WITH THE DLL OF COURSE, YOU WILL BE BANNED) to test adding a new window similar to what MQ2 does with a button for effects, then submitting the MQ2 plugin to nilbog/rogean/kanras for review to add the window to the client. You'd want to just add a window that: 1) has a button that says effects and 2) loads from the UI folder and can be made transparent for standard UI use. MQ2 has the capability to add windows like this.

- The class icon on the front of the interface cannot be displayed (to my knowledge) without first opening the inventory because of the fact that it requires access to the class name to properly display that image. When in the inventory, you don't even see the icon...so what should I place there as an alternative to help fill in the interface? I'd assume you'd not want it to stay bugged as it is even though it's such a minor cosmetic issue.


You should be able to display that icon on any client window, it's simply a function or two that you'd need to hook to display it regardless of window state. (and possibly on another, static window as mentioned above).

- The persona area (front view image of player) to my knowledge also cannot be displayed, as I'd assume this is something EQ originally did using multiple rendering viewports back when that UI was the only interface available. I'm pretty sure that this cannot be accomplished via scripting and although I won't be able to render that, I'll still be able to replicate that area with a static image to fill in that portion of the UI and allow for click drag and drop equipping/inventory fill as it should.

This has been broken (internally, via SOE) since the DirectX 8 update of 2001(ish). God help you.

very exciting thread

[Stylez]

The bardage screenshot is me from my private server, I feel famous!

[Stinkum]

Can anyone confirm if pet health bars were around during this time? I currently have them disabled but want to know if they were or not before I completely strip that code from the UI.

The entire pet window UI element not classic.

In classic, you had to type /pet report health to see how much HP your pet had.

[Stinkum]

I meant pet health on the group window, not the pet window element.

No.

This classic screenshot shows grouped members with pets up, none of them have pet HP bars under their names.

[falkun]

If nothing else, forcing this UI while medding is entirely classic.

[Stinkum]

Didn't get as much done as I wanted last night due to groupage ingame, but here's an update screenshot of the inventory currently, not nearly as botched as it was before.

http://puu.sh/3WOjN.png

Nice work.

[kuuky]

I am anxiously awaiting this UI to be completed. For some reason I really loved it when I played back in 2000. Thank you for the time and effort you are putting into it Dualentity.
It will really feel like classic to me when I am using it again. :)

[utenan]

cant wait to use this UI : )

[mtb tripper]

i been wanting a classic ui for a while now

[happyhappy]

You are doing the work of a hero, the only thing comparable to your awesomeness is the place you now hold in my heart.

I'm still using the old one even tho it keeps crashing every time I look at it too hard, seriously antsy to get an actual functional classic UI.

[Bazia]

any word from nilbog if this UI will be forced when completed?

[kuuky]

any word from nilbog if this UI will be forced when completed?

That'll suit me just fine

[Bazia]

If nilbog cared about the UI to that extent he would have spent the week or two making it functional.

Also please provide download link, this project is the shit.

[Bazia]

thanks again dual, classic isnt classic without the ui for alot of us :)

[Bazia]

I will donate something to you in game upon download link being provided

[kuuky]

Just wondering how this is coming along?

[Tacitus]

Really looking forward to using this, in classic you could only play in 1st person correct?

[Bazia]

Been a week with no word......

This project still alive?

[thugcruncher]

fully torqued

[mtb tripper]

awesome, cant wait for the immersion

[Bazia]

yeah thanks for update man alot of us are excited for this ^^

[Stinkum]

Keep up the great work and take your time.

I don't plan on continuing to play P1999, so here's the source/textures for anyone that wants to mess with it to finish it. Good luck, everyone.

Thats a bummer did something happen in game to you to make you quit?

Sadness.

[big league chew]

i want to believe

[Bazia]

I don't know how I'd feel about having the UI forced on the community as I feel that it would crush the server population. I've already had quite a few people tell me to stop working on this UI because they fear that it will happen.

Someone sent death threat

[big league chew]

ill guard the door while you finish it
its for the good of the community *(whether they like it or not)

[kuuky]

this project seems dead as a doornail, woulda been cool though

[Vandamwtc]

This sucks, I was really looking foward to this.

[Stinkum]

Give us hope, only to take it away.

[happyhappy]

Short of the inventory window and non classic item desc plate, it works pretty flawlessly.

[big league chew]

lets get dis shit mandatory status asap
classic or bust

[Nirgon]

STICKY

[Mynxx]

:( Someone please pick up where he left off!

[kuuky]

Actually He was a She and I couldn't agree more!

[Stinkum]

I don't foresee myself physically playing P1999 again, however in the near future I'll most likely come back to finish this off for you guys when things have settled down a bit.

[Stinkum]

I had programmed a dog collar to shock me with a low electric volt anytime you post in this thread.

classic ui needs way more love

duxa & other hacker ui need way more hate

[Savok]

classic ui needs way more love

duxa & other hacker ui need way more hate

Have at it! Nobody is stopping you from fixing it.

[happyhappy]

I laughed quite a bit at this. *bzzt*

On the other hand, to those of you who actually messed around with this project. If you could kindly report any major issues you encountered it would be of much assistance in the future. I'm not expecting many replies on this though other than cosmetic issues (tooting my own minotaur horn).

Stuff i've found so far:

•Can't turn on spellgem bar when playing a non caster.
•target healthbar flickers when the eq window isnt the active one
•inventory window randomly appears behind the rest of the ui elements
•inventory window unfinished
•item plates wrong era (wrong background and has the item icon)
•chat text too wide in window (overlaps bg element)
•class icon only appears after opening inventory and isnt always animated
•pet window, well, not classic. Since were actively trying to immerse ourselves using this ui, would it be possible to remove it from the ui?

I may just end up trying to teach myself how to do it on my own, got any ressource i could read and absorb?

[Stinkum]

Anyone have any idea if you could scale this to a larger resolution than 800x640 to allow people to play in windowed mode?

[happyhappy]

That's actually pretty genius.

[sellawiz]

Are you still developing this? I'd love to be able to download it.

[xetura]

I'm interested in this as well. Also, It would be cool to have it setup for different resolutions.

[Bazia]

your a fucking saint

[Telin]

This looks great. Even better combined with the classic spell effect files for that bard song you have playing :-)

[happyhappy]

Item links gone, pet window gone, what a wonderful day to be alive!

What's left on the todo list?

[Engraverwilliam]

does it stretch in the middle or scale to wide screen monitors?

[a_gnoll_pup]

Just fixing up some windows to make them as classic as I can. I need to get a hold of someone (probably a_gnoll_pup) in regards to getting some screenshots of some windows so I can rip textures.

I'm almost finished the spell book. It can be seen here: http://puu.sh/5GAjg.png

Should be near ready very soon!

http://sourceforge.net/projects/eqemulator/files/OpenZone/S3DSpy%201.2/S3DSpy_1.2.zip/download

Also, there's new code that I submitted for review by P1999 to aid with some of these feature removals in other UIs. Keep an eye out.

[khanable]

WOW. You had mentioned this was here -- didn't realize how far along this was.

EPIC work faerah.

Keep it up, lets get brogean and nilbog to force this UI/velious UI only! =p

[happyhappy]

Did you find a way to change the font on the buttons? Should be a serif'd font.

[Wolvefrost]

Holy shit this is amazing!! Can't wait.
Should make canni dancing a bitch.... but 100% worth it :P

[Ravager]

I've been wishing for this UI ever since I started playing here. 640x480 for life!

[gcobb]

Hey, just wanted to say thanks for what you're doing here. I do seem to be having problems getting the UI to work correctly. Even with my game resolution set to 640x480, the UI's windows either seem to be too small or are missing entirely. Actually, the layout of the UI is the same no matter what my in-game resolution is set to, with the most glaring error being that the left-hand PERSONA/class icon window is missing. I'm just wondering whether anyone's had this problem, or whether there's some obvious preparatory step I'm failing to take.

[gcobb]

That fixed everything. I didn't even know /loadskin by itself opened its own menu. Thanks so much!

[drelk001]

If you ever need any busy work or something, I have a project that would help give the P99 a more classic feel check out my thread! http://www.project1999.com/forums/showthread.php?t=130266

[drelk001]

for those that dont want to play in full screen mode or little window for this UI, I have found a solution, make your desktop screen resolution as low as you possibly can and run P99 with this UI. if you want to back just make sure you write your old resolution down or remember it.... that is what i have been doing, Enjoy!

[kuuky]

Hey Dualentity its great to see you working on this again. Kinda forgot about it. Take your time and I sincerly thank you for this UI.

[Ravager]

Bump for awesome!

[drelk001]

so, the character select screen part of the UI doesnt work on my computer ( it may work on other peoples ) there isnt an auto place in inventory, I believe it was origanally on the part where you can see your character, which is black on this UI, the spells icon doesnt work, other than that.... the UI is great :) i just wanted to tell you the stuff that was wrong..... keep up the good work :)

by the spells icon not working, I mean, when you click on the icon that says "spells" it doesnt open the spells book

[Trosh]

Howdy!
If there is any way you could make this larger after you have perfected the original, that would be excellent. I love the original skin, but having 1 chat bar, and it being dinky are my only 2 real complaints..

Perhaps one that has the same feel, but just adding a chat bar and allowing it in larger video sizes?

Regardless, great job, looks sweet :)

[Halius]

Can I just say that this is awesome! When it is slow at work I play in a small 640x480 window on my laptop anyways so this is perfect. Totally 1 millions times multiplied my immersion, thank you!

[drelk001]

Happy to see at least someone is getting some use out of it besides myself! Ill throw up a new update soon as I've been fixing a few things here and there. I love it, I just, Kinda like a bug report I was telling you what was wrong with it, I didnt mean to seem like a RnFer sorry :)

[drelk001]

kk thanks :)

[triad]

No. If you want a UI that scales or stretches then use Velious UI. This UI is specifically meant to be ran at 640x480, like it was always intended to do.

make it usable with my res and im in untill then im stuck with the other uis

making it work on a bigger res doesnt change its classicness just adjust to the screens that are out now it wasnt "meant" to be that size it was just the standard of the day

[mtb tripper]

for some reason my persona and class emblem thing isnt showing up next to my spell buttons, why is this?

[drelk001]

just open your inventory

[mtb tripper]

just open your inventory

I got it fixed and working perfectly, it looks absolutley beautiful, thank you so much

[drelk001]

if there is a way to make it where you lock all the UI peices that would be cool, I dont like how I have to lock all of them :P

[drelk001]

Not that I'm aware of. Don't believe there's a setting in the UI scripts to render a piece of it immovable.

kk NP

[drelk001]

Spent some time streaming and working on this the other day while camping an IBC for my warrior. Made quite a few updates which can be seen, discussed below. Updated download links are on the first post.

Screenshots
http://puu.sh/aHVxM.jpg - Buff/Debuff icon outlines (still working on classic outlines)
http://puu.sh/aJ9oZ.png - WIP book window
http://puu.sh/aJhiS.png - Note window
http://puu.sh/aLOvb.png - Book window

Besides what is available in the screenshots. I also made some pieces of the interface into smaller chunks to be better managed, locked and displayed. I updated the buttons on the give window to better represent how they looked originally, and am in the process of making the bottom right area of the main ui look how it used to.

The other big noticeable change is the fact that there are now two separate download links for the ui's. This was done to fix the black area that was in the melee ui where the spell gem bar would usually go. A non-functional spell gem bar was put in place on the melee version of the interface as should be.

I really like that the non casters have spellbars like in classic. and I guess it wasnt against the coding to have them locked :)

[drelk001]

if you can move the Netstat bar why not put it used to go?
http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/attachments/everquest-jpg.49495/

[drelk001]

I don't think that's something controlled by the ui but rather something in the client itself. Will have to look into it to make sure though.

What I was talking about this
http://puu.sh/aHVxM.jpg

This is what I See
https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4013/4687247308_a38df1436d_z.jpg

see the netstat bar? they are in different locations.

[drelk001]

I swear these things follow me around.. why?

[drelk001]

Well then. :v Hopefully a mod cleans that up.

As for the netstat bar, theyre in different positions because when i use the classic ui I use the /viewport command to change the size of the visible screen. You can see the viewport size on the first post in this thread.

I see, kk wheres that link bro? lolz

[drelk001]

I am LOVING it so far, I have been having my desktop resolution as low as possible and playing windowed mode :) this is REALLY cool :)

[drelk001]

okay, so the black area, it isnt the auto-equip area

[drelk001]

*drool* is the character creation screen setup?

[drelk001]

That, as well as the server select area are the pieces that I'm working on next!

okay, so with the low resolution I dont have the character selection screen just my toons showing

[drelk001]

That's because I haven't uploaded the changes yet. I was just showcasing them.

http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/9/91513/1796337-towelie.gif

[erfg12]

Yeah this UI is ridiculously good! But, 1 small issue in the current version, no give window (handing item to NPC).

Please keep developing this UI, it looks beautiful!

I'm going to change it to do that soon. Been meaning to, just haven't taken the time to do it. I rarely even use the auto-equip functionality so I just never felt the need to do it. xD

I auto equip quite often.

[drelk001]

I auto equip quite often.

/agree this is a a great UI, I use auto equip all the time.

[drelk001]

I changed the area to auto equip in the next update whenever I release it. No give window though? I've never heard of that. It works on both of my UIs for me...

See? http://puu.sh/b15DA/838061b58c.png

sorry lol... is that symbol going to be there?

[drelk001]

It has to unfortunately until I start doing some shady shit to get the UI elements to work properly in areas that they're not supposed to. That symbol is the reason that I forced the auto equip area off. It's the reason that you get your class animation icon displayed on the selector window. Nothing I can really do about it for the time being.

I see.... maybe you could stretch the symbol out to fill the whole black spot?

[drelk001]

Nope, because changing it in any form would distort the graphic that displays on the selector window.

If you look closely, the amount of pixels rendered down to the right from the start of the black box is equal to that of where its positioned on the selector window. Thus if I expand it or move it in any way in the inventory then it would look all sorts of fucky on the selector window.

well.... crap ... I still love the project though :)

[drelk001]

Bump
Reason: lack of posts and this is awesome

[Terethian]

Okay, so, I am not exactly an idiot but maybe I am.

I can apply the UI and manually drag windows around and reload back and forth to try to line it up all nice... and then I have a big empty black box where the class window should be.

So... well...

Here is my thought and my additional confusion....

Since window locations are saved under your character TXT in your EQ directory... why can't someone please upload a default class txt file with the windows in the correct locations so it works right?

Am I missing something? I mean, I might be really wrong, but I sure would love someone to email me a character file with the windows lined up correctly and to know how to get the class window with the help button etc. to be visible.

email Babymitchy (** @ **) GMX.COM

[Terethian]

Nevermind, primary problem was the layout staying the same had to uncheck the box that says to keep the same window layout. I think this is such a critical issue it should be added to the first post. a step by step guide should have that mentioned... maybe it does and i skipped it but i don't think so.

http://puu.sh/aMsPL.png - Main buttons of the action window

I installed the UI but it doesn't look like this (It doesn't have the class icon shit - It just has a normal spell bar. It also doesn't have the classic action window....) How can I get it to look exactly like what you have in that screenshot?

Also, there's no login screen UI - it just shows my characters. this isn't necessarily a problem as I can navigate through my characters with the arrow keys - but If I could replicate what you got in the screenshots it'd be nice.


Alright - So I fixed the problem with the class icon, but how do I make the spell bar show up (I play a Monk, so I'm not sure how I make the bar show up on a melee)

Thanks much Drelk - although I'm still curious about the actions window (The one in the bottom right of the screen) Is it possible yet for me to make it look like that on my screen? (I'm referencing the one in http://puu.sh/aMsPL.png)

Secrets messaged me with some errors in my ui



Forgot to change out a file in both zips. Edited and switched out the zip archives for both.

WOOT! my girlfriend and I were trying to play earlier today, she was freking out because I kept crashing when logging into the Character selection screen :P

Finally did it! Hopefully I can get this to the appropriate person to have it added in. No adverse effects; only character creation functions were hooked!

Epic! That and I've been messing around with making a custom UI. Think that's just gonna get trashed though. Classic or bust.

gratz :)

[Roky Erickson]

This is cool, it's not perfect but it definitely is the best ui out there. Thank you

[Portasaurus]

Wait a minute.... did you win your bumfight while fighting in this classic UI?

:eek:

If so, that is pretty impressive as I assume your opponent had the full benefit of the normal UI and resolution during that fight.

[Grimjaw]

looks good. I read that though as you had the little third-person view window working (top right) but its black :(

[falkun]

I doubt the 3rd person view will ever work. That function was completely removed from the Titanium client (https://www.project1999.com/forums/showthread.php?t=117434).

[Portasaurus]

Yep! I pretty much always use this ui.

question! - The regular spellbook has 16 spell slots on each page, and with this UI there is only 10 and it appears that the other 6 spells ( on each page ) are just gone from my book? not sure if this is a problem or im just dumb

[drelk001]

when you click on the little spellbook on the UI it doesnt open the spell book.... derp

[drelk001]

I answered that in a different post that someone else made. I can't make that work without a 3rd party script which isn't super functional due to the fact that I have to keep track of basically everything the user does ingame to make sure there are no ui pieces in the way of certain buttons.

The reason it also does not innately work currently as well is because I have not found a way to make the button attached to the spell gem window to open the spell book from the selector window (the window that houses the inventory, options, help and other random buttons).

must not have saw that post... my bad.... any progress on the character creation screen?

[drelk001]

That's something more or less that Secrets is working on. I'm currently working on a plugin for MQ2 to submit to the team for a more classic inspection menu, and fixing small things on the ui here and there as I feel like working on it instead of messing with C code.
cool, how exactly do you submit something to the team? I have been trying to talk to nilbog about having my classic sounds in the next patch :P

[Roky Erickson]

My UI is all jumbled up and I can't move anything, any fix for this?

[Roky Erickson]

Be in 640x480 resolution, /loadskin "name" 0

Thank you

This looks amazing. I will have to try it once I get the game up and running. Buggy or not it has to be better than the default UI

[Aleks.J]

Nice work, brings back memories.

[drelk001]

on the TAKproject I have been running with this UI :P its pretty cool

[Tehwoot]

is it possible to play this in a larger window? my monitor wont let me do that low of res.

[drelk001]

Bump
Reason: Want this out there :)

[LordRayken]

So does this work right now?

[drelk001]

does, but not that well... a lot of the elements of the UI are derpy

That's a shame, because I've been dying for the classic EQ interface for like a year and a half. I'm trying to get used to this new interface, though.

[xassis]

The entire post with the download link was deleted, what happened?

[Grimjaw]

and pics no longer hosted, all replies deleted. not looking good for this one.

[burdenday]

Looks like this person removed themselves from the Internet. Their Twitch channel, which I followed, is also gone.

If anyone has the last working version of this it might be good to host it somewhere semi-permanent and hopefully someone will come along and pick up the project where it left off.

[king buzzo]

man i was really hoping to use this but it looks like their is no link :(

[drelk001]

ohs noes.... this is bad.

[drelk001]

her profile is completely blank, I was her friend for a while :/.... this is scary, her deviantart and website is blank as well as all o her posts on this thread too.... scary

I am sad :'( maybe it was the takproject being about to use the classicUI?

okay! Dualentity! you had your fun! early april fool's joke? come on.... this isnt funny.

[Grimjaw]

shits messed up that's for sure. a very technical savvy person that has provided their assistance to all for free.

whatever caused this to happen we may never end up knowing. but I don't think it has anything to do with this client.

I'm not tech savvy with building UIs so I won't be able to help with this project unfortunately but hopefully these help with whoever wants them. I mean they work for the most part as long as you have your in-game res down to 640x480.

[burdenday]

Thanks, Halius.

I sure hope dualentity is all right...

[Grimjaw]

dug up some more stuff here. not much, but a bit.

This thread is kinda trashed... where do I start out?

[Hawala]

Alright well I've sort of got this to work! I just have no window that says help, options, persona or has the class animated thing to the left of the spell gems. Any help?

Same with their reddit page, totally gone. I'm a programmer (sort of actually I do database design) and I am totally willing to take over this project. I just need the files.

[aaronp]

If you have something working, you should put them up on git or something. This is something I'd like to see done, though personally I'd rather have a classic-like UI that works on modern screens, heh.

I'm probably going to finish it on the 640 x 480 then scale it up after I get a few of the totally borked pieces working.

There's a whole problem of the class icon animation only being renderable in the inventory windows, inside the autoequip area. It's really bizarre.

Clasically the class animation appeared on the main screen on the left, underneath the "Persona" window. While it still does, it only appears after looking in your inventory, since it has to render there first.

[tarkhis]

Any luck on getting this updated or working would love to have this old UI back just for the feel of it

[zajurai]

Any updates? I'd love to experience the chapter of EQ i missed.

I only briefly saw this interface when EQ first came out. I had (still have it in a box) a Quantum 3d Obsidian X24 (2 voodoo 2's on a card) when it came out and I could run EQ at 1024x768 full screen with transparent windows. This interface didn't show up until for everyone until Velious but that is what was allowed with that card as I recall. So I barely remember this interface.

[nbgt]

lemme know if anyone gets anywhere on this UI

So hey, I just joined P99 and I'm loving it. How do we go about making this UI work in game? Do we just drop these files into the titanium folder?

[AsTheNightFalls]

I know EQType 28 is Target name and EQType 29 is Target Hit Point Percentage..

There is a Current / Max Hit Point along with HP Current Label %s

Im wanting to know if there is one for the actual Target's Current / Maximum hit points?

Like if we were to target lets say "a rat" that may have a total of 17 hit points.. Is there a way of being able to re label the % into current / max hp?

[AsTheNightFalls]

Not quite classic - but its more "modern" classic that ive been working on - currently working on editing this to a 1920 resolution and adding the Combat Ability window to the bottom of what I am showing here.. and putting the target window above the HP current / max counter
