Where are UI layout files stored?

[Adrian]

No doubt, I knew they were there but how can I use a different UI for a current character. Don't tell me how to do it in-game, I know, been playing ~13 years.

Unlike on Live, peq and/or P99 doesn't seem to have the same functionality or it's not as simple, unless I am mistaken.

Please correct me if I'm wrong and tell me how I can use a UI, layout, etc. from one toon on another. It's time-consuming to redo it for each toon when I have been using basically the same layout for a dozen years.

Thanks

I think if you browse to your /Everquest directory, you should see :

UI_playername_serverid.ini

towards the top, it will have UISkin= _________

Name that the same name as the UI folder that you want to use, and try it out.

You can copy a UI over. So if you set a UI up as Adrian then you'll find the following:

UI_Adrian_P99/Red99(whatever server).ini

Copy that file and change the name to your new character and just remember to delete the previous file of your newly create character. Also there is a second file that needs to be changed the same way, I can't remember it off hand since I'm not at my P99 PC but if you search the same folder look for the second file of Adrian and copy that to the new characters name.
