Thanks for letting me know.. sorry it took me so long to check this one out. I generally just check the forum thread itself.

However, I have made the alterations, and hopefully it is fixed now.. checking it before i upload the new changes.

Hey Sarenne, thanks for the great UI. I just noticed one error in my vgclient logs with the UI:

The file Dark_MarketWnd.xml is linking to the file VGUIInventoryPopups.xml which you didn't package with your UI. I noticed you have a Dark_InventoryPopups.xml file so I replaced that and then the error went away.

I was having some issues with the InfoMap cursor not moving in the right direction. Not sure if this was causing it or not, but thought you might want to know.

best UI i've used yet, had way better fps then i ever did with drox. the only bugs i've noticed are as follows

the new relist ability for the new markets dont come up

when you turn off the default bags they are back on when you log in the next time

and the no big deal bug the clock gets bugged and the numbers stack

Nice UI. Shrikke dragged me here.

If I have time I might try this myself. Any chance of a G15 keyboard window and the numpad window? G15 I got after I started Vanguard, but a numpad window I have been using since EQ days going back to 2024.

I modded a bit in EQ, less with EQ2 and not at all in Vanguard. This thing called a career keeps getting in the way.

==== EDIT ======

Figured this out, wasn't to hard, can't say it's the best implementaion but here it is...

1 - Kept the user.ini file that came from the Drox 2.6 download since that is where the key mappings are kept. See the Drox readme for an explanation of the F11, F12, CTRl+F5, Ctrl+F6, etc.

2 - Copied the G15 folder from Drox folder to Darker folder.

3 - Copied the 2 xml files to VGUIAssets\Shells\Darker\Windows:

Drox_HotbarNumpad.xml
Drox_HotbarG15.xml

4 - Added lines to VGUIAssets\Shells\Darker\Index.xml.
Three lines at end of <GameplayWindows directory="Windows">

<!-- Added Drox windows per Gilly 9-22-2008 -->

<Window filename="Drox_HotbarG15.xml"/>
<Window filename="Drox_HotbarNumpad.xml"/>

5 - Changes in Drox_HotbarG15.xml using wordpad's Edit > Replace:

changed all instances of emptySlotGraphic="slotBackground" to "background"

changed all instances of "DroxEmptySlot" to "VgrdIconBlankSlot"

6 - Changes in Drox_HotbarNumpad:

changed all instances of emptySlotGraphic="slotBackground" to "background"

changed all instances of "DroxEmptySlot" to "VgrdIconBlankSlot"

*** the next two don't look pretty but it puts a square about where you need it:

changed "VgrdIconBlankSlotWide" to "VgrdIconBlankSlot"

changed "VgrdIconBlankSlotTall" to "VgrdIconBlankSlot"

I have used drox and myUI and others. This one is fantastic! And, just like everyone else, a comment lol. Is there a crafting mod that is stand alone, and or updateable, in the spirit of infomap for instance. Do not get me wrong. This is a fantastic mod. Very crisp and clean and it WORKS!

Sarrene

You can do it two ways..

• Copy all files over to Darker2.0
• Delete old folder, unzip new folder in its place.

That is it really good luck!

Sorry for the silly question, but maybe someone else is wondering this too.

If I already have the previous version of Darker 2.0 installed, how do I update it? I apologize if this is posted somewhere, but I didn't find it on this page or in the readme.txt. Do I look for the more recent files and add or overlay them? Do I reinstall everything? Will I lose my customizations?

As you can see, I am clearly confused

For the Smaller Bags....
I dont have a quick Fix.. however I can go ahead and make a plug in for those that want the larger bags.

It would be a simple download and replace the xml files. Give me a day or three and I will have that uploaded for you .

Sarrene

Dreadful Countenance is Progressive Forms
Same applies for Rangers, Monks, Shamans, Bloodmages and the rest...

All claseses that used the little half moon with the bubbles that filled up uses the same xml file:

Progressive Forms

I love your ui. As a Dread Knight, how can I get Dreadful Countenance levels to show up?

I noticed there is a pally "virtue" bar, but I can find nothing that displays the DC level, other than watching the mob for a corresponding debuff. I like to watch my dc level as I am tanking so I can choose which chains to initiate.

Can this be added?

Once again, thanks for the great ui.

Caltine

Hello i like your UI but i have one big problem the bags are way to small and hurt my eyes could you please tell me what i would need to change to make em bigger or how to switch back to default ones ?)

Thanks.

Sarrene

First, I am glad that I checked this today. I did post up that I would like to have all questions, comments, suggestions or problems posted up in the thread I have linked above (and in my response here) since I do not checked this that often. It just makes it easer for me since I have that marked to get a message any time someone posts. It also makes it easer for everyone else, as they have access to other problems, ideas, suggestions and thoughts on the ui.



Lost Offensive Target window:
I have in the discussion thread about the issue of the Defensive target not showing up. It seems that a few of the ui's have a different position for some of the windows.
The answer can be found in several posts, but here is one: http://vginterface.com/forums/sh...8&postcount=35

The Offensivetarget is one of that has been effected the most often. Since I did not copy or use Drox as a bas, but instead the default UI (and worked on up from there) those that have used drox in the past "lose" their Targeting window. The window is not lost, but actually located off your screen. If you download the Test layout, insert that into your Bin folder, and in game type in /uiload test you will see that window come back up.

NOTE: you do not need to log out for this to work.
In the next update I will be adding this file in for those that switch Custom UI's often.

Small Windows:
Aye, this UI was created for those with either larger monitors or for those with realy small ones and did not want half their screen taken over. So yes, I know the windows are small for sure.

I was thinking about getting with Scoony (Since he is helping me with my new DarkScrolls UI) about setting up something where you can choose the window size. Sadly, when I first made the smaller UI's (DarkerBoxed) we could actulay save the /uiwinscale. It would be realy nice if we could again. I may start bugging the dev in charge once more and see if they can turn that back on.

Untill then however, I can go ahead and make some "extra" files in a folder for those that wish to have larger windows, hotbars, buffs or tooltips. However this may take me a bit to get it completed and uploaded. Look for this in the GU5 edition.

OOPPSS!
Vel, Yeppers, you are correct. I used my last UI README as a base, and I see I forgot to change that. Thank you for letting me know. I will have to get that changed. Again, Thank you! **hugs**

In the install instructions above it says to change shell=Darker2.0 and then above that it says to change it to shell=darkerboxed, I am assuming it should be Darker2.0.

Also, is there an easy way to change the font size of the tooltips? They seem to have gotten smaller since I installed this UI.

This mod was working great, then it starts to reload all the bozes I didn't want on after I log back in. Every time I have to check the bags off and the windows controller off, as well as lag meter and a few other.
NOW I cannot even get my targeting box. I can hover over a mob and it shows me the level, but once I click on the mob nothing happens, there is no stickied box of info.
Anyway, off to try some other mod...thanks! Hopefully this one will be updated soon.
