lol....smh

Sorry, I never though that a texture change was so game breaking. :(

You’re still able to customize the Green UI with no error warnings or crashes. Things like inventory + hotbar in one window, health and mana numbers in the player window, spell gems with the names of the spells. It’s all still possible and being done in the Velious UI without any issues.

Please point me to the guide to achieve this.

It's likely a don't ask, don't tell situation. I haven't seen anyone sharing ui changes on the forums. I'm not sure how the staff would feel about it.

What I can tell you is the UI is XML and you can find more information about things related to it here https://www.eqinterface.com/
I don't recommend you try to fully replace the velious ui, that will not work. Small modifications may work.

Certain things won't work on p99 due to the recent patch that removed additional hotkey bars.
As far as I know, no one has publicly documented what those are. You'll likely have to play around with the ui to find them yourself.

I’ll take some screenshots in Green live when I get home from work, but I posted this during the beta:

That UI still works on Green live. So I can get all of the features of QQUI basically in Velious UI. The custom hotbar + inventory + primary / secondary just took me editing the .xml file for an hour or two until it all lined up. The rest is literally a direct copy of the QQUI files into the Velious UI folder.

No crashes and no errors.

I’m only bringing it up because I don’t think it’s intended. I asked in the stickies UI thread how they were planning on enforcing it, and I got some vague responses. Doesn’t seem to be enforced.

Thanks for sharing, at this point, my only issue is the texturing. I'm not complaining about the hot bars or other stuff, just the texturing.

We are already using a full screen Velious UI, we get a few more hotkey buttons making 10 in total with the expansions.

Yes, the original was a viewport with the classic CRPG stone user interface which could be toggled to a full screen mode, making it two UI's for classic. This can't be currently recreated due to widescreen monitors of various resolutions. We have a compromise UI that Rogean and guys from this board helped put together, something that could work with the myriad of modern widescreens. Don't blame the developers, blame non standard screen sizes.

Plus the original UI had the spellbook covering the viewport until level 35. Rogean also tried to recreate that but sissies lost their composure and shot him in the knee for suggesting it.

Here is the original stone UI when it was toggled to fullscreen. Note the 6 button hotbar.

That is the original UI of Everquest and loved by many of us. It was a classic CRPG design. See above comments, modern widescreens and LCD panels that don't work the same as CRT do with resolution differences.

Here is some more information if you are interested

Here is the Velious era UI from 2001. This is what the dev team aimed for as a compromise.

Again, I don't understand why texturing the rest or some of the UI in the stone look of the buttons in those screenshots is considered such a no..no.
