P99 is not in the business of steeling other peoples work and hacking it up and implementing it on their own server.

We will create our own custom UI that is fully created under the intention of it being a part of P99.

Eventually it will be the most classic titanium everquest UI ever created. But until then, we are still behind some other projects. As this one was started about 4 weeks ago [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

of course I didnt mean steal it but you could message the devs of that said ui and ask them to use it then tweak the code and boom you have a 100% working stone ui

I can't speak at all for the UI team or R&N, but I think the core issue is ... Green = classic! Those UIs aren't as close to classic as the current Green UI is.

But look, actual classic had two UI modes right, stone and transparent? The staff was going to make us use just their ghetto transparent version. Then the volunteers stepped up, and we got a much more accurate/classic UI.

All that is awesome, but even so it doesn't mean it's the end. Maybe R&N will decide they want Green players to have an option, and they'll authorize the building of an alternate "stone" UI, then let people /loaduiskin either one.

Or maybe they won't. But if you want to convince R&N, I would imagine the best way to get that ball rolling would be to find ways to make whatever UI you think would be perfect for green more classic (until it's as classic as possible).
did you even click on those ui's? they are the stone ui as best as it can be because of the titanium client. now having that said if they p99 devs and volunteers could get permission to use these uis and tweak it then you have a 100% working stone ui also it wouldnt be a bad idea to let the people have a choice between the two both are nostaligic and both are 100% classic,but lets face it some people dont like the transparent one. so why not let people have a choice? For the record I am happy with the velious ui but cant we all just come to a happy medium? meet in the middle you know? have options for players.

Default Greedy Merchant in MT

I do not remember Sonsa Fromp being a Greedy Merchant in Misty Thicket. She has sewing patterns your forced to buy from her if you want to sew your own armor. Edit* I just realize I could walk my lazy bum into Rivervale and buy the same patterns she carries, but still I do not remember a greedy merchant in MT

Hi. Unfortunately this is not controlled by the UI. You will have to create a bug in the Green Bugs forum to report this.

Not sure if this has come up yet, but when I allow the use of tell windows, I start a conversation with whoever and the tell window works, however there is no "x" in the window, I cannot close it. Toggling the use of tell windows doesn't work and I end up having to log out completely to clear them.

Yep. I accidentally caused this issue I think. I tried to get rid of the ‘x’ and thought that you could still close it via the right click context menu. We have changes internally right now that will fix this issue. So we will work with P1999 Staff to have something ready for their next patch file.

Hey guys,

I know you’ve mentioned you’re enforcing the Classic UI, but how exactly are you enforcing it? You’re still able to edit the .xml files in the uifiles/velious folder and modify windows and information.

Oh man you are a genius! how did they not think of this! Why don't you go try it right now on green beta. You could have actually done that before asking this question. I'll save you the effort:

Making any change to the XML files will result in this message when logging into green:
"The client has attempted to load a different UISkin while Velious UI is in enforcement. The game will now exit. "

Probably just work on the assumption that the staff as a whole is smarter than you and if they don't want you to do something, you probably won't be able to do it.

That was a really smart ass comment for something I was curious about..

Here is a UI I made on Green to test this. It allows me to log off and back on with no issues whatsoever.
