Leewong's custom UIs

[leewong]

UPDATED 12/12/14 - New UI, spellbar w/ names, and a few bug fixes

Thought I would share my custom UIs. All of these have been stitched together from pieces of various UIs and then edited/recolored/modified to work on project 1999. I put a lot of hard work and time into these but I make no claim over ownership of the original materials. In games gifts are welcome if you like and want to show appreciation. Also, thanks to Norova/Welgrim for providing a 3rd mirror. He hosts a ton of p99 related things @ http://p99.yourfirefly.com/. Be sure to check out his page and toss him a donation!

I have a UI I like already, but I'd really like a permanent UI element that shows all of my bag slots, since dicking around with bags is easily the most frustrating part of the game. Is it possible to cannibalize some UI element like the window selector to do something like this?

[fastboy21]

Does anyone have a ui that keeps the names and timers of buffs displayed on your buff bar, like you see when you alt mouse over most uis? I would like to not have to hit alt to see my buff timers.

[Pep]

Links are dead.

You need to copy the links and paste them in a new navigator window/tab for the images to load properly. At least that worked for me.

Also: nice UI.

Easiest solution would be to open up a new hotbar and drag the bag slots down to it. But the answer to your question is yes.

DuxaUI (Modded Vert, I think?) has all of your inventory slots, primary/secondary, ranged, and ammo on your main hotbar window. I can't live without it on my Bard.

[Daldaen]

Ugh the amount of un-classic in this post should be a bannable offense on this server.

Three Chat Windows - NOT CLASSIC
Three Hotbutton Bars - NOT CLASSIC
Mana Value - NOT CLASSIC

I hope they can work some magic to fix these not classic UI issues.

No one forces you to use this or any UI. I spent near 80 hours making these and released them for everyone to enjoy. If you cant appreciate the hard work I put in perhaps you should keep it to yourself. This isnt the place to post your negative bullshit about non-classic features.

Just saying people come here for a Classic EQ experience. And all these new fancy UI features are indeed, not classic, and will eventually get fixed.

Perhaps it's not the place and I'll stick to Bug reporting it I suppose.

Custom UIs were introduced to EQ when velious was released. I seriously doubt this is something that will get "fixed". Custom UIs are classic if you consider velious classic.

Why is nobody campaigning for item link removal, duck cancel of spells removed (as on red), and item recharges removed?

Some people run the Luclin models.

Some people use autofire.

I'm all for a classic EverQuest experience but customizing the UI is way better than the Titanium UI.

I have item links in my thread. I'm campaigning for it.

Duck I'll campaign for when you can sit for 9 seconds of a CH, gain that meditate tic and then stand at the end to finish the cast (which is classic). Don't think you can sit properly through cast and still channel or the meditate tick goes poof after your cast (takes the 400 mana + what you gained meditating)... I forget which is the case in red but it's one of those two. I think it eats the med tick though. Last time it was brought up I think devs shot it down on p99 for some reason.

Item recharge is classic. What you have on red is not classic.

Autofire is now bannable and they have detection for it

Luclin models should be removed, not sure how much they can do beyond what they already did though. But models don't add much power. Whereas multiple chat and Hotbutton bars adds a huge amount of power.

We are getting more and more classic by the day. I appreciate your concern though Swish. If you are really concerned though red has way more non-classic issues. Between recharging/clicky cast times, no item loot, global OOC, PvP Global Text, Loot and Scoot. It's all so unclassic it shouldn't have a P99 tag, just a "custom PvP server with old content" tag.

[Justerd]

anyone have a new link to this ui?

All of the extra hotbar/chat button stuff could be accomplished with AutoHotKey or a similar program. Extra hotbars are quality of life, and an incentive for players not to use 3rd party programs to accomplish the same things.

If you don't like the guy's UI or its features, don't use it.

Not everyone has the same definition of classic. To me classic is classic gameplay. XP loss, CR, no-PoK, no bazaar, no mercs, no instancing, no guild hall, no soulbinders, etc. Those things affect the community and feel of the server.

What UI someone uses, or what character models, makes no difference to that. So if that's classic to you, use an UI that works for you.

45Mbit always-on internet isn't classic. Should the devs throttle connections to a fluctuating 56k and add random disconnects to emulate the deaths caused by an incoming call disconnecting the dial-up in 1999? Server handling large groups without lag/crashes isn't classic. Should they make zones artificially lag when you have more than about 30 people engaging a raid boss? 4GHz quad cores aren't classic. Should they develop a custom OS that disables multi-cores and throttles CPU to 500MHz?

There's a lot of non-classic things that impact the game and there's things that impact gameplay a lot more which should be the focus of development - like mobs not running as often/fast as they should.

Really? That's what I get for updating at 4am :( Fixed.

[leewong]

New update coming soon. Fixing transparency on the buff window (so you can make it as transparent or non-transparent as you want) and adding timers to spells so you dont have to hold ALT to view. Also, by popular request...working on a hotbar with bags slots, primary weapons, etc. that bards will absolutely love.

Lastly, 2 new UIs will be released soon. Just putting the finishing touches on them :)

[scythic]

Leewong is there a way you can fix it so I don't see the Warrior class Icon on the inventory screen?

[leewong]

Leewong is there a way you can fix it so I don't see the Warrior class Icon on the inventory screen?

Here is what you need to do....

1. Navigate to the UI's directory and open the file named EQUI_Inventory.xml with a text editor like notepad++ .

2. Change this line <Animation>A_ClassAnim01</Animation> to <Animation>A_ClassAnim02</Animation> for a cleric animation or <Animation>A_ClassAnim03</Animation> for a pally.

3. Save the file and close it.

4. Play EQ.


Here is a list of all the class animations to pick from:

A_ClassAnim01 - warrior
A_ClassAnim02 - cleric
A_ClassAnim03 - pally
A_ClassAnim04 - ranger
A_ClassAnim05 - shadowknight
A_ClassAnim06 - druid
A_ClassAnim07 - monk
A_ClassAnim08 - bard
A_ClassAnim09 - rogue
A_ClassAnim10 - shaman
A_ClassAnim11 - necro
A_ClassAnim12 - wiz
A_ClassAnim13 - mage
A_ClassAnim14 - ench

Hope this helps ;)

Interesting. Apparently, I failed include enough space for a surname....oops! That's what I get for never giving my characters a last name. Will fix it in the next update but until then you can exclude the diety and player level from the UI by following these instructions:

1. Navigate to the Leewong UI folder. Locate a file named "EQUI_PlayerWindow.xml". Open it with notepad, wordpad, or your favorite text editor. I prefer notepad ++ which you can download and install for free by doing a quick google search.

2. Once the file is open in a text editor scroll down to the very bottom and you will find this line:
<Pieces>PW_PlayerDiety</Pieces>.

3. We need to comment out that line so it looks likes this:
<!-- <Pieces>PW_PlayerDiety</Pieces> -->

4. Do the same for the player level line:
<!-- <Pieces>PW_PlayerLevel</Pieces> -->

5. Save the file and you are done ;)

[CoffeeBreath]

Trying to piece together this + vert ui hotbars (for the inventory included in hotbar1, rest horizontal) with classic spell gems but I guess I suck at this. Not having much luck. Pasting the relevant files into this ui seems to break the ui and give me basically default_ui. Any tips or suggestions?

Edit: Also bug - there's a sword class icon in the inventory screen but it feels out of place on a druid or necromancer.

My UIs all contain two versions. One with vert hotbars and one with horizontal hotbars. If you open the EQUI_Hotbar.xml files in a text editor you can copy/paste from one to the other, overwriting the old vert or horz hotbars you want to replace.

The warrior class icon (sword) is just laziness on my part. I didnt include the other animations to cut down on file sizes and the amount of work required.
I will most likely change this to something more universal next update. Here are instructions to change the pic to any class you want: http://www.project1999.com/forums/showpost.php?p=1573438&postcount=48

Oh hot diggity, calling out my post made 5 months ago!

Look - Most custom UI features aren't classic. I'd like to see them removed because they make the game more tedious and in most cases more challenging. Just like classic EQ was.

This game will NEVER EVER be totally "Classic". Very few of us are virgins on here. I know pretty much every trick in the book on here and I bet you do too. When this game started nobody knew shit. Hell even having a Twink on here was pretty much unheard of in the beginning. The next expansion came out faster than you could level unlike here. We all have twinks out the ass and alt Twinks out the ass because still being in Kunark is FAR from "classic". I can come up with 30 things that will NEVER be classic on here because of the Titanium Client.

So if you want to play Classic have at it. I would rather have, for the limited time most people have to play this game weekly, a half decent compromise. YMMV. :p Not many people 13 years old in their Moms basement playing on here today.

You can ignore the xml errors. None will break the game or UI. As far as the spellbar problem goes you can try one of two things:

1. Change resolutions or switch to or from full screen mode. Make sure you get a buff beforehand. Once you find the buff window move it to the middle of the screen. Now, set your resolution back to normal and arrange the windows as you like.

2. If that doesnt work try this:
(a) Close EQ and navigate to your EQ install directory. You will see a file named UI_CHARACTERNAME_project1999.ini located there. Example: UI_Leewong_project1999.ini

(b) Delete that file. Restart EQ.

Let me know if either solution fails to help.

[krforrester]

Right there in the product description:
"There is a new 3-D interface, which allows players to customize their interface screens."

Even before that you could alter UI files but they would get patched over regularly. I am not surprised you didnt know these things since you were likely an 8 year old brat when EQ was released. Too bad you have stayed a brat your entire life.

New UI came in 2002. It was a Luclin feature.

I never owned Luclin but I made my own UIs. What you are referring to is the ability to switch between UIs and save your layout. Before then you could still alter them.
