Setup steps to complete after installation:
The TBird DroxUI Compilation is now installed in the properfolders for use in Vanguard. You willneed to edit the VGClient.ini file in order to use the UI in game.
To prepare your VGClient.ini file for use, open up the filein a text editor such as notepad. Thefile is located in the following folder:
<Defaultinstall folder for Vangaurd Game>\bin
Example would be:
C:\Users\Public\SonyOnline Entertainment\Installed Games\Vanguard\bin
Once open, search for the line that says“Shell=Default”. Yours may showsomething different if it was already setup with a customer UI. Replace it with “Shell=DroxUI”, the foldername of where the UI is stored (default is DroxUI). Once this is done, you can go into the gameand configure your layout.
Your UI in Game
Your screen will be a mess the first time. Major features are selected in the TBird DroxSetup program in your root UI folder, and if you installed the setup versionthere may be an icon on your desktop for it. Once you are in, hit escape and get the game menu up, and select TBirdDrox Settings. Here there are morefeatures you can turn on or off, and in the bottom of the window a check box togo to layout mode. In layout mode youwill see most of the windows and you can move them around as you please.
The first tab in the setting window gives you six slots tosave layouts to, so you can have different ones, or try different ones. There are some presets loaded already, so ifyou have any problems finding a window try loading some different presets.
Resetting Presets
In the UI folder is a folder labeled “User” in there isdefault layouts, and original user.ini files in case you opted not to overwriteyours and you are having any issues.
