Just a minor update, fixes all "togglewindow"-calls.


Maddy Craft 2.11

Updated for compatibility with GU5

Finally after 6 moths I returned to this beatiful game and found the time to update this little craft-UI...

Highlights:

• Cancel Bug fixed.
• Finisher button uses all possible finishing actions.
• Recipe Details reworked.
• Included RefiningStart with continental recipe macro bars and without any recipe macros. You can select the one you need by activating the corresponding line like shown in the included Index.xml.

Maddy Craft 2.10

Updated for compatibility with GU3.2

Just removed all the presets until the corresponding UI's are fixed. This update includes the fixe to the toolbelt-problem!

Highlights:

• Refining-Start: Mother's faboulus Quick Recipe Bar integrated. Define up to 50 Recipe-Shortcuts here! For further instructions how to do that look at Mothers descriptions please!
• Refining-Start: Nadgers missing items integrated in Recipe-Details page.
• Table-Setup: Useable Item List redone to show more items at once.
• Table-Setup: Switch to Text-Only-Mode to see even more items!
• Table-Setup: You can place 12 Text-Macros with /refineadditem "xxx" entries now.
• Craft-Window: Redone for a more compact look.
• Craft-Window: Catalyst protection based on Mothers idea and using Nadgers look integrated.
• Craft-Window: The original Sweetcraft-Skillwindow returned! Use the small "Skill"-Button at the upper left corner to adjust your skills on the fly. Additionally to your current skills you can see the base-values directly.
• Craft-Window: Ever wondered what grade was required for the actual recipe during processing? Press the small "Detail"-Button to have a look at the details of the current recipe.

Idea behind it:
It's based on the good old Sweetcraft UI from Sweetwheat, which is not to be found on this site and not maintained since March 07. I loved his UI so I took it over and modified it to meet my needs. It was desinged to minimize Mouse-Action during the crafting process. And here's the result.

Features:

• Table Inventory to the left, top to bottom filling and expanding as needed
• Table setup rearranged and including an area for 8 Macro-Buttons. Here you can put any /refineadditem "xxx" - Macros you need.
• Actual crafting status at the top of the window, with all relevant information. This uses some modified graphics from Xyndyr's myUI 2.0, which I used during development.
• Cancel Button at the top-right (the "X"), out of the way of the whole crafting action.
• One-click-toobelt
• Crafting-Macro-Buttons based on the so called "Single Action, One Click Step and Action Method" described at the VanguardCrafters-Forum. These are marked "1" to "6" corresponding to the Action of the "active step". The "active step" is the left-most of the available Action-Steps. Recipes with up to 9 Action-Steps are working with these buttons. You need to use the default Crafting-Buttons for steps above nine.
• "The Finisher" - Button, based on the "Single Action Final Step Macro", found at the same source as above. This button can be used during the last finishing Action-Step. Based on the AP left it activates the best step (with most quality in return) for the Finisher. Again if the Recipe has more than nine steps, this button doesn't work.
• Complications and Remedies, all in a row at the bottom of the Window as needed.
• Removed most texts so this one is probably not for crafting beginners!

Installation
Basically it's not meant to be a standalone UI-Mod, although it could be used this way. This Modification can be integrated in most, if not all Custom UIs. Included in the download are Presets for most actual Custom-UIs. Use these at your own risk! I have not tested all of them enough, but they should work. Make a backup of the original files before trying out! If you use a preset, just copy the directories and files into your Mod-Directory (for CoreUI3 you have to copy the content of the Index-file into your Index.xml ! )

To include in a custom Mod follow these step:

1. Download and unpack the ZIP-File
2. Copy the contents of the included "Textures"- and "Windows"-Folder into the corresponding Folder of the custum UI.
3. Open the "SkinInfo.xml" of your custom-UI (with NotePad or some any other editor) and include these lines:
   
   <AnimationDefinitions directory="Textures">

   <AnimationDefinition filename="MaddyParts.xml"/>

   </AnimationDefinitions>
   
   
   Please take the included "SkinInfo.xml"-File as an example. Save the file.
4. Open the "Index.xml"-File of your custom-UI (with NotePad or some any other editor) and search for the section
   
5. Find the following lines and comment them out as needed or even delete them:
   
   

   ...

   <Window filename="VGUICrafting.xml"/>

   <Window filename="VGUICraftingActions.xml"/>

   <Window filename="VGUICraftingCatalyst.xml"/>

   <Window filename="VGUICraftingComplications.xml"/>

   <Window filename="VGUICraftingInventory.xml"/>

   <Window filename="VGUICraftingRemedies.xml"/>

   <Window filename="VGUICraftingToolbelts.xml"/>

   <Window filename="VGUICraftingWorkbench.xml"/>

   <Window filename="VGUICraftingWorkbenchFilling.xml"/>

   ...

   <Window filename="VGUIRefiningStart.xml"/>

   
   
6. Search for any other "VGUICrafting...xml" and "VGUIRefiningStart.xml" entries within the file, probably from other Crafting-Mods included in your custom-UI and comment them out or delete them.
7. Add the following lines to the "Index.xml"-File:
   
   <GameplayWindows directory="Windows">

   <Window filename="Maddy_Crafting.xml"/>

   <Window filename="Maddy_CraftingRecipeDetails.xml"/>

   <Window filename="Maddy_CraftingSkills.xml"/>

   <Window filename="Maddy_RefiningStart.xml"/>

   <Window filename="Maddy_TableSetup.xml"/>

   </GameplayWindows>
   
   Again please take the included "Index.xml" as an example.
8. Save the file and launch Vanguard!
