Hi All,
I'm just getting re-started after a 13 year break and am challenged remembering a few things about the UI.
I've read the threads about downloadable UI packages others have made and look forward to trying those. These questions are about the UI I first started with. I figured other restarting newbs might look at this and have some of their questions answered too.
I started with an action bar (Melee Attack, and some abilities like Sneak, Hide, etc that a hafling has), EQ button, Main Chat, Songs, Actions, Target, Effects windows and a personal window with red, blue and yellow bars and a group section.
First question a little humourous. I was fought (and beat!) a fire beetle, then noticed my health was not recovering. I figured I was poisoned. I recalled an icon indicator of some kind that showed what you were poisoned or diseased with. Is that shown on the UI? Seems like the Effects window would be a good place for that.
Second question is about resizing the Hot Buttons window, the one with Melee Attack. The other windows can be resized by cursoring over the lower left and right corners, but I can only move the Action window around, not resize it.
Lastly, I did not mention the Spell Gems window above. Somehow it came up when I was running around. I see it is toggled on and off by going EQ button -> Character -> Spell Gems. It's spells are cast by alt+1, etc. Spell gems cannot be resized, like the Action window.
Alt+W brings up the window selector, letting you toggle the various windows.
Lastly, I recall that the yellow bar under Health and Mana is the stamina bar. It moves a little when I jump. I thought it was exhausted when character sprinted, but I cannot seem to find the Sprint ability so that might be a false memory.
Thanks!
