EZ Server

What do you use?  The regular UI in game or some other program?

I see now that it was mentioned that SoD has its own seperate UI that doesn't accept the Titanium UI files, but can transfer over to all your characters.

What is the HOTT UI Piece link and what does it do?

In your opinion, what are the best things to use when playing?

Any special in-game macros that you like or find very useful?

What view do you play in?

Inquiring minds want to know!

I use default, will post a pic of how i have mine set up

I use default. Usually make 4 chat windows in game for chat, my combat, all other combat, and misc. Even though I could just get away with 3 windows since i never look at all other combat unless I notice some big damage or misc, I usually minimize the misc window too, I also put almost everyone of my windows on 50% fade so I can see a little easier.

Ok, so i apologize...
I forgot (as im here on my laptop) that my desktop PC is down until i get the last 2 barbs for my watercool radiator, so i can fill with coolant and stuff. stuck with laptop (which has no screenshots) til then.

No problem Reed....

Can't wait to see what you have.

I use the regular UI. its so much easier to use. You have every thing you need, and you can change the color of it to. I make 4 Chat windows and filter out all my chat to go into thos windows. Every thing people say i leave in one window, my spells and the next, my being hit and all that in the next one, and the last is my tells so i never miss what some one says to me.

1. I use regular UI. Main reason is since I 3 box, I need smaller resolution to fit 3 screen on my dial monitor and to minimize cpu impact (all 3 are at 1152*864)

2. SoD UI is almost the same as Titanium except it got some other windows you can use (not enabled on EZ anyways)  Like the group window is a little bigger... buffs is better IMO.. with the time remaining showing etc, also runs smoother (you also get 1k hp more  ;D)

3. HOTT is "Health of Target's Target".  So basically your target window got 2 lines... one with your target HP and the other with your target's target HP... easy to switch from attacking to healing etc...

4. Use Common sense and when the tank says run... you run. (dont train though  ;D)

5. I use homemade macros done by EQ only... i can loop etc etc... you can do alot just with EQ without cheating. I mainly use an assist macro with pet attack for my mage and auto-follow macros etc... I could set up a looping healing macro too.

6. My MT (warrior) plays in "3rd person like" view so I can see all around.  Rest (cleric and mage are in standard view)

I basically decided that making my own would best serve my purposes, but I'd like to add somethings that i see in others.  Also, there are SO MANY to look at online it is overwhelming.

One thing...Does anyone know how do you get the spell names next to your buffs like i see on so many UIs?

if im not mistaken SoD as it by default.. its a setting in the options.  I turned it off i believe.. cant remember though lol

Might not be able to read the windows, on the right from top to bottom it is. "Skills Spam", "Spells Faded", "Spell Spam", and "Melee Spam"

This is with Titanium atm. Not SoD or SoF.

OMG Reed! Is that Cero? LOL! And you said you never play him anymore heheheehe

Thanks for the pic.  I like to see what other people have up.  Mine is a little more detailed.  Added more windows around the edges with the stuff I need.  I have been customizing it as i go along, finding what I need up most, etc.

Anyone else want to show some pics of their UIs?

The majority of this one is called clean and clear. I changed out a few pieces here and there and arranged the window placement myself. I also added a spam box, hit box and magic box.

whats the experience bars on the side for? AA, normal... and?

Group Leader and Raid leader

Ahhh, shiny!

Yeah, that piece is awesome. Must have, lol.

Should post a link for those of us interested in it.
Cant tell you how many group leader AAs i've missed because i forgot to spend my 8 stored.

Ummm, well it is kinda modified. I took clean and clear, replaced the group window with the all in one window. What I usually do is create a character, log out, go to my eq folder and find the character ini file, (UI_Xiggie_EZ (Linux) x4 Exp). I open one of the files that is already set up the way I want it and copy it. I open the one I want to change, select all and paste the good ini into that one. It replaces all the info there and sets it all up but the hotkeys, (It does place them though). I will take a look and see if I can find that one piece by itself but in the mean time I will just copy and paste my ini in here. I like that so much that I even went and pieced it together for SoF. There are slight differences but the main part of it is the same. I will make 2 new posts with nothing but the ini in it so nothing else gets accidentally put in there.

Or maybe not. Exceeds the maximum characters. Let me find something to upload it to and get a link to it.

Ok I have it hosted. Will list links below for Titanium and for SoF. Someone please let me know if this does not work in anyway. Now this wont setup exactly the way I have it. Everything will be there just not placed in the same area I have mine set up. If anyone wants it I can upload my ini also so you can copy/paste for the easy setup.

That is for the SoF version. If anyone wants it for TiT just make a post and I will upload it.

Xiggie,

Can you please upload the version for Titanium?

Thanks,

nottheman

Sure thing. I included my setup, just change where it says xiggie to your toons name or copy the contents to your characters file after you put the C&C with exp bar file in your ui folder.

Sorry, I ment to provide a link with that post, lol.


http://www.filefront.com/16816229/CC-with-exp-bar-for-SoF.rar/

Is this still available? I keep getting a file not found when I try to download.

Putting up a new link. This zip file has both Titanium and SoF in it but zipped up separate from one another. There is also a ui ini in them in case you want to have the same visual setup mine has. If anyone has any trouble dl'ing it or getting it to work let me know.
