If you like a more classic UI, use the built in Velious UI that comes with Titanium.

Use /loadskin and select Velious.

Lots of people like the Vert UI

download links and instruction are in this thread: http://www.project1999.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11949

I really like the Duxa UI (http://www.project1999.com/forums/showthread.php?t=28335&highlight=duxa). I mainly use it just for the percentages display for the Health, Mana, and Experience Bars.

The XML for UIs is pretty basic and easy to understand if you feel like customizing any of the parts you don't like from any UI.

Make your own, That's what I did and I love it!
It's really not that hard once you find the right resources and get the flow and structure of a window.

I also use Duxaui, however I increased the size and added stats to the player window:
Str
Sta
Agi. Etc

Added surname, moved some of the boxes around, increased text size of player name, deity and class. Duxaui is a nice interface

I use notepad ++ (because they're in XML format)
http://notepad-plus-plus.org/

What I did was I went to http://www.eqinterface.com and looked at at the specific interface windows and sorted them by date putting the oldest ones at the top of the list. Then I looked at the ones I liked and compared their structure and flow to the default EQ UI.

This is the page I used to get the EQTYPE numbers for different window elements:

You can edit the UI file and reload it while you're in game to see the changes. Note that you can only do this so many times however and after idk 50 times you'll have to restart the client. I believe it's a client limitation.

Always back up your files before making edits!

I think i somehow killed my p99 game while installing duxai.

I no longer have any characters in the select screen. it keeps coming up with just human models saying your spell file is out dated where the names should be.

anyone able to help me with this?

Your spell file is out of date then. Download the newest one.
