Pinco's UI

[Pinco]

Well drat....... I'm in serious lag

try on tc with a new character...

 

[MalagAste]

try on tc with a new character...

Decided it had to be just me so I rebooted my pc and reset my modem and router...... much better now...

And loving all the new updates Pinco.....

Still though in the house custom menu it does NOT give you the details of the roofing tiles...... in 2d it says "NW Corner" and such when you mouse over the tiles.... it does NOT do that in the EC.

that's what it is as default...

 

[MalagAste]

So no way to put in there the facings of the Tiles?


Or is that a DEV thing they have to fix?

there is nothing to fix, the gump is designed as it is and adding the tooltip means detect every id of every piece and label it...

 

[kongomongo]

What kind of lag? Anything specific? Did you ping your shard to make sure it's not your connection? ping shardname.owo.com (i.e. ping atlantic.owo.com)

 

[Pinco]

Ok, seems the time is up. If you find more bugs, report it in the right place and when I come back (april) I'll take care of them.

Yeah well trying to build a roof without having the pieces labeled like they are in the 2d client super stinks. Infact it makes me go into the 2d client to do the designs..... since I can't tell What tile is what in the EC.

I'd rather avoid the graphics topic or I could say something that I'll regret...

 

[MalagAste]

It's not about the graphics it's about the labeling... If I can't tell what facing the tiles are it's impossible to build a roof.




This is what I'm talking about! WHY is this not in your UI????????

because the gump was not designed to give such info, so I had to manually label every piece and it takes a lot of time... right now my time is up
post it on my site so I will remember about that...

Will do. And sorry you would have to do that... maybe I'll make them do it. Should be there by default wouldn't you think?

They should do a lot of things, but they are too few and they have not enough time to do everything...

 

[kitiara-atlantic]

Pinco, When you die the map shows you where all the healers are located! Is it possible to make a toggle for this when you are alive?

I'd love to see this as well - to be able to see the locations of wandering healers while still alive. Thanks!

 

[Storm]

I'd love to see this as well - to be able to see the locations of wandering healers while still alive. Thanks!

It cant be done due to the info being server side

 

[Pinco]

this morning I had some time and I used a trial account to make some changes:

Version 5.731

• Test fix for stucking healthbars.
• Now the relic items will be shown again at the top if the loot sort is active.
• Fixed a typo on earrings slot description.
• The lost items text is now visible in the new item properties layout.
• The poison charges text is now visible in the new item properties layout.
• Improved the moongate gump: now it shouldn't miss the choosen location. NOTE: the default location will be reset after the patch.
• The item comparison now is disabled by default.

Is there an issue with the download for version update? Every time I launch UI Patcher it passes the internet connection test then gets stuck on downloading version file at 0%.

the patch server is under maintenance, it should come back in few minutes...

Ty, All updated now!

 

[Pinco]

so, any improvements on the healthbars with the last patch?

 

[Llewen]

I wasn't having many problems with health bars, so I'm not noticing any major difference.

 

[kitiara-atlantic]

I'll try and get on tonight to try out the new patch. I had constant problems with health bars when taming cu sidhes (and then killing them off and taming new ones). After a few cycles of tame/release, tame/release, the health bars would stop updating. Fingers crossed!

 

[Daga Taga]

I haven't noticed any issue's yet after about 2 hours of play.

 

[Pinco]

I have a great news!
I found what cause the memory leak while crafting, and with this all the memory leak will be gone for good = no more lag or crashes for lag

 

[kongomongo]

WOW, that would be EPIC!! Constantly have to restart EC when working with BOD books or other gumps currently.

 

[Pinco]

WOW, that would be EPIC!! Constantly have to restart EC when working with BOD books or other gumps currently.

I've tested this problem for several days, but now I've fixed it
pratically now by crafting 80 items the fps goes from 30 to 18, with this fix the fps stays at 30 without reducing at all... so no more lag

 

[BeaIank]

Excellent.

 

[kongomongo]

Great job, MUCH appreciated!

 

[kitiara-atlantic]

so, any improvements on the healthbars with the last patch?

Tamed for about 2 hours last night. After an hour, the health bars got stuck again

I was taming cu sidhes while riding an ethy. I'm not sure if the ethy has anything to do with it, but it seems to happen after instances where I jump off the ethy and onto the freshly tamed cu to ride it out of the (slow) sand up top. Then I dismount the cu, sic it on a wild one, and that's when the healthbars are frozen. They stay frozen even if I leave the area and go to town and back. Could just be coincidence with the ethy... thought I'd mention it just in case!

 

[kongomongo]

Pinco is the crafting fix already in 5.733?

mmm I don't know, I'll take a look hoping in something fixable....

no, it will be part of the next version...

 

[kongomongo]

Ahhh ok, was wondering. Thanks for letting us know.

 

[Pinco]

here it is another spoiler of the next version:

• Added a new map tool: the Compass.
  • Through the context menu on the map window, now you can "Magnetize Compass". By doing that, the compass appears and the needle will start pointing toward the selected location.
  • Under the compass you will be able to see the distance between you and the selected location.
  • The red part of the needle is the right way to go.
  • The more you get near the magnetized location, the more the needle will start shaking. When the distance is 0, the needle starts to spin randomly.

 

[kongomongo]

Wow that sounds pretty sweet

 

[Pinco]

Wow that sounds pretty sweet

I thought that happen too often to have to open the map and scroll when you are trying to reach some place (like sos locations)... in this way you just need to enable it and follow the compass
it's also useful if you have to follow a party member (or a tracked target)

 

[Pinco]

Here is another spoiler:
all the npc vendors will have a search box.

Since with the new patch many of the armor improving reagents must be bought from the npc blacksmith and those npc have a huge amount of items, I think this will come pretty handy

 

[kongomongo]

One word: AWESOME!

Thanks Pinco! What would we do without you???

 

[keleran]

I have downloaded Pincos UI and been messing around with it for the last 10 hours. I have Windows 7 and it would not let me install NET 2.0 saying is is already installed. Checking my registry, it is there and current. When I run patcher, I get the following:

What exactly does this mean and how can I go about fixing this? There were no registry errors on sfc/scannow and the 2.0 version is in the registry. Please help. ICQ 605307696 (Tristan Agrivar)

 

[Llewen]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but you need at least .NET version 3 do you not? Mind you, that should be included with Win 7. But you are correct in your guess, there is something definitely amiss with .NET on your Windows.

the framework 2 is already part of win 7. This error come from the fact that you have installed the UI in the WRONG FOLDER.
Just follow the setup guide.

no, it's not the same. Framework 1.0, 1.1, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0 and 4.0 are all different things, but on win 7 there are almost all if you did the windows updates

From your setup guide:

"Now that you have located this folder, open the file downloaded and move the whole content of the zip file into the game folder that we have located before.
For example if your game folder is the one we said above, all the FILES from the zip archive must go into:

I opened the zip file and moved the files to C:\Program Files(x86)\Electronic Arts\Ultima Online Enhanced Client since I run 64 bit Win7 system. I still get the error above. According to your guide, I am putting it in the correct spot but it is still not working.

make sure is NOT in a sub folder, 90% of the times the unzip program creates it automatically.
and be sure the game is installed in that folder too, maybe you installed it somewhere else

It is not but the Pinco UI is in a UserInterface folder, is it not supposed to be there? I also had my Legacy and Sygian Abyss folders in a completely different area...gonna try that. If you can, I requested help from ICQ from you if you are available.
