Clearly you are or were unaware that you could F10 in classic for the transparent UI, at all times.

Holy shit, after all this time? You mean I played with that damn crap the whole time LMAO.

Never mind my post then about the background. I never knew that existed in classic. I always know about the grey slate box world.

Don't worry I was the same way, but part of me is very glad I used it exclusively for some time. I think I was in my 30's on my main by the time I realized.

I started playing when the game came out and did not know it did this until half way through Kunark when I stumbled upon the F10 key by accident. I was literally awestruck.

Clearly you are unaware that pressing F10 got you full screen so you could take a SS, never did it make the UI transparent. I’d have to see a SS of that to believe it. I could be wrong. I’m pretty sure that UI didn’t happen until Kunark sometime. I remember very distinctly a Kunark patch that made me jump for joy when I saw it say that I wouldn’t have to sit behind the spell book anymore and that was when I was at the Saranak Fort. I‘ll take some time and go through my old SS to post them if I can find them.

The reason I remember this is because there was a lvl that made it when you sat down that your spell book no logger opened when you sat to med. It happened at a specific lvl. If this SS above is correct then what would have been the point that at a certain lvl the spell book no longer came up when you sat down to med?

I too remember F10 toggling between full screen and UI mode (not "full screen UI" and "semi-transparent UI") ... but I started in Velious. As has been shown many, many times here, memories are fickle things: maybe you're just thinking of Velious?

Also I am curious what this patch did, relative to the UI at the time:

Moving and Resizing Windows
The data windows in the full screen "HUD" mode may now be moved by clicking in the upper left-hand corner, moving them to where you want, then clicking again. The "spell effect" and "chat" windows can be resized by clicking on the lower right-hand corner, dragging to the appropriate size, and then clicking again. Coordinates for window locations in each resolution are stored in the EQCLIENT.INI file.

This wasn't the custom UI patch, so I thought maybe that was when the "in-between" UI was introduced?

Here is a screenshot with a modified date of 7/20/1999.

This UI functionality was available day 1 of release.

This patch removed the necessity of clicking the 'Meditate' button itself located on the spellbook.

AUGUST 30, 2000

Opening your spellbook will automatically cause you to begin meditating providing that you have the skill.
Removed the /meditate command since it is no longer necessary.

Then, in 2002:

MARCH 19, 2002

Spell casters no longer need to see their spell book when meditating. Once a character has the meditation skill, it will function when the character is sitting down.
