Vert UI redone

[Savok]

It's been 6 years since I last updated my UI (http://www.project1999.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7850) so I thought I would go ahead and streamline it down a bit and revisit some things that I wanted to work on when I first started but never got around to finishing.

I shrunk down a lot of the boxes to free up more space. I also fixed the black square in the target window. Let me know if you like the new changes or preferred the origonal version.

Cool. Loved the UI for years.

Oh sweet. Going to check this out when home!

Smart idea on the eqinterface thing.. Do they frown on people posting stuff specifically for emu servers???

[Savok]

Not since P99 became a thing for Daybreak.

[MiRo2]

Love your work.

[fash]

Are those screenshots on eqinterface up to date?

[Savok]

Yes, but they were done on the quick to get the posts up.

Savok, love your UI. Have been using Pepto for a while. I had a question regarding the casting window. You mentioned here (https://www.project1999.com/forums/showpost.php?p=102503&postcount=72) that the EQUI_CastingWindow.xml file can be deleted to show the default casting window. I was curious how difficult it would be to have one of these separate casting windows with your UI's look versus the default look?

Delete the file and copy from default to your UI. Edit the Draw Template from whatever it says to: <DrawTemplate>WDT_Rounded</DrawTemplate>or if you want no title bar: <DrawTemplate>WDT_RoundedNoTitle</DrawTemplate>

Thank you so much for the assistance! That was a lot easier than I expected it to be. One thing of note, though, is that I did put in WDT_RoundedNoTitle but it still shows the title?

@Savok: The horizontal bars are not working, when i download yours from https://www.eqinterface.com/list.php?skinnerid=21502 and try to put them into your vert2002, it doesnt even run anymore.

[Savok]

Are you loading p1999 UI files in p2002? Did you read the patch message today?

Not sure of your exact issue.

[Mark11]

Yes i tried that, seems was not a good idea, but the patch changed things anyways it seems. ( just to be safe i installed the Project 1999 Vert UI in Green and overwrote it with the Project 1999 Vert UI 2 Vertical, 2 Horizontal Hot Button layout, but no horizontal hotkeys also)

I read the patch history now and i think you mean this:

Velious UI is now the default for character select and characters without an INI file.
Universally disabled numerous non-classic UI Windows.

So velious is not a bad UI, but is there a way to make horizontal hotbars for it, or is this impossible now because of this patch ?

The patch completely removed the ability to have more than 1 hotbar. The elitists have won this war. It won't be coming back.

Oh wow, now this will be interesting ingame. And not even a horizontal one. On the other hand, now we play the real old EQ..i guess that weighs more, because the very most of us loved the good old days and this belongs to them.
I take it as a salute to EQ what it once was to us all.

I like the different colors for these UIs, and am wondering if there's a way to add more colors easily or if this is a big/difficult thing?

Thought it would be a real cool thing to have a different color for different classes. Red / Purple / White / etc.

Thanks!

So does the Vert UI work on P99 Green? I downloaded the UI, but its not responding. It just keeps loading up the default files.

[mcoy]

Green is locked to the default UI.

[friznapbaby]

That makes sense. Thank you for the quick reply!

[spiritsofrock]

These mods still work?
