Pinco's UI

Working now in Trammel, Tokuno, and Malas! :)

On a side note, the debug window opens when you login now :p
Spellbooks don't seem to be working now though :(

Pages don't turn, no tooltips, can't cast from them, and can't right-click to assign hotkey (just closes it instead). :p

No errors in log.
Pinco, I really appreciate all the fixes and improvements lately, thank you!

Some minor issues -
a) When I open up a treasure chest, I use "search" to get rid of the 50 stone items before I start "loot all." But search doesn't work now, it's trying to search my main pack every time.
b) When I open a chest in list mode with many items, like 100, I scroll down to find an item I want. When I remove that item, the list jumps back to the top, so I have to scroll back down again. Can you hold the list at the last position?
ok, today there seems to be an insane lag, is impossible to fix anything when you can't even enter the game properly :D

I started having lag about 30 mins ago. I closed the client and restarted but still had lag. I switched to default EC and lag went away.

Looks like spellbooks are working again :) Not sure if you changed anything, or I just had a very odd issue last night!

I was able to load Pinco's without any lag just now, perhaps it's shard/regional specific? Or just coincidental timing when switching to normal EC?

Hmm, it may be related to certain elements on the screen. When I open the Character Sheet, I get crippling lag, but it goes away when I close it. Perhaps there are other windows that are triggering this as well?

Ok, as always I missed something crucial to the bug... Just tested again and they work if opened directly from the backpack; However, if you put them on a hotbar and open them through the hotbar, they don't work :p

The pet controls bar and mount blockbar are mandatory, you can't (and shouldn't) remove them. Doing so may cause problems. Besides if you remove the mount blockbar you lose the mount/dismount button too.

If it's just a key binding problem, just change the keys from the pet controls bar (that appear when you a a controllable pet out) and the mount/dismount key from user settings (or from the mount list).

I'll try to get a deed to TC, looks like it's only causing issues with new/empty mannequins.

Also, getting some very strange issues with huge FPS drop. Nothing generates in the logs when these happen, and they can be intermittent, but I get horrible lag (FPS drops to 6) 90% of the time when I open Character Sheet. It also happens when hovering over random spells in spellbooks (typically the spell in the upper-left spot of the book).

Here is an example with character sheet:
fps.gif

I deleted the character profile and on a brand new profile, the FPS drop didn't happen when opening the character sheet. However, after making a few setting changes (no macros, no hotbars, just some window positioning, and bag defaults) the FPS drops when opening the character sheet came back again.

I don't know how to replicate the issue, the fps is always steady for me... there must be something that triggers that fps drop, but until we find that there isn't much that I can do about it :/

I'm also now getting massive lag that is directly attributable to the UI. When I go back to the default UI that lag is completely gone. (I'll send a copy of my current profile) In fact, everyone I know is experiencing lag when using the UI. :(

Also, hotbars aren't staying minimized between sessions. I have a few I close, but they're always open again when I log back in.

Completely wiped User Data folder (well renamed it), used brand new blank profiles/settings. I can open Character Sheet without lag only the first time logging into a character. As soon as I logout and log back in again (client restart not required), the FPS drops when Character Sheet opened everytime after that. Same behavior on 2 different computers. I can send you my profile if necessary, but since it does it on a brand new setup, they should just be blank profiles.

do you have any stat from the character sheet moved on the hotbar or quick stat bar?

No, I actually didn't even know you could do that until now :p I use advanced healthbars, but I switched between the 4 options and it happens with all of them.

One thing I noticed, if I reload the UI with Ctrl+R, the lag will go away with the character properties window and spellbook tooltip (actually I drop from 50FPS to 40FPS, so there is still a drop, but not crippling). It will come back the next time I login, but Ctrl+R seems to fix it for the meantime.

Sent you a different profile.
it seems you have messed around with the settings :D
the chat alpha is set to 0.01 so it will never show the background or the tabs again, the properties are disabled (maybe you tried the properties showing point and clicked it?), anyway just fix those settings and all will be fine :D

Performance is great for me after the last update :)

I hadn't changed the chat setting in this profile in ages, and it had behaved the same as every other character. It was the last patch that changed it.

I changed the chat alpha to 1.00 and the box reappeared, but the tabs didn't until I clicked 'Show window on mouse over' then clicked it off.

The tooltips worked until the last patch as well, I'm not sure which setting to fiddle with as nothing in Item Properties seems to bring them back. Holding my mouse over an object or hotbar icon doesn't bring up anything.

the item properties on that profile are disabled, you must use again the "properties showing point" (action) to re-activate them again...

Hmm.. Ok. I haven't ever used that action...

So I pulled it out to a hotbar, clicked it - and got tooltips back - then cleared it from the bar and tooltips vanished again...

So I pilled it out again and now the tooltip is only appearing in 1 specific spot, not over the item I'm clicking on. Something is still fubared. And if I remove the action icon, the tooltips go away again.

That is how that action works, it shows the properties there instead of the mouse location and clicking it turns on/off the properties (CC has the same thing activable from the options). Probably when you removed the action you turned it off again, because nothing else turns off the properties :D

@Pinco, can we brainstorm about the error message about EC PlaySound being required? Right now with multiple clients running, this will popup occasionally, then immediately go away. The more clients you run, the more frequent this popup occurs. I know you can't do much about this popup happening, but maybe we can change some behavior on it. Ever since you added the ability to close popup messages with Enter/Esc, I find myself accidentally reverting to Default UI quite often, because if I am typing in chat and that popup appears, it steals focus from the chat window and if I'm not paying close attention and hit enter (to send the chat message), it accepts the popup instead and reverts to the Default UI.

I'm not sure whats possible with that popup, but can any of this be done?
  • Make that popup not take focus so Enter won't trigger the "Okay" on it?
  • In conjunction with the above, change the location it appears? (To the top of the screen for example)
  • Or set the transparency on it so it can be seen through?
  • If the first option above can't be done, do you have the ability to add additional buttons to the popup? Like Cancel/Okay instead of just Okay, and default the enter key to "Cancel" instead?
Thanks!

the check for EC Playsound is made every X (random number) of seconds. The more clients you have the more is probable that the number is the same for all of them, and when it happens the check fails and the popup shows...
In a normal game you shouldn't require to play 10 clients at time (because in a normal game you have other people to play with), since here everyone needs 3-4 imaginary friends to play with, I'll see to change how it works so it won't be a problem :D

Changing the button name or the appearance of the popup are not a real solutions, I'll think of another reliable way to check if EC Playsond is active instead...

Thanks! I wish I ran 10 clients at a time :p Typically I run 1-3, but even with only 2 clients running I can accidentally trigger the popup to switch to default UI. Even if there was just a slight delay before making the popup appear. Like, check if PlaySound is running, if not wait 5 seconds, check again, if still not, trigger popup. Not sure your current logic on checking for PlaySound. The popup typically disappears within 1-2 seconds after appearing when running multiple clients.

the logic is quite simple, the client writes a file with "check" inside the EC Playsound writes "OK" if it's active :D
the number of seconds is between 1 and 60s (counting 1 decimal position), with 600 possible numbers you see how often the rng pick the same with multiple clients :D

@Pinco went to an event tonight and the bars above everyone's head caused a LOT of lag, so much so I had to switch back to native EC. I used to be able to control how many mobile bars so that I only showed 5 Blues, 5 Yellows (when I had them on Dock Spots) and 10 Green & 10 Grey and never had lag at events. Is there a way to turn off the over the head bars? It's becoming very annoying now with the bars moving. Thanks

Found a new bug with the mobile bars (dock spot), when you Honor a Grey mob, it's bar turns purple (has always done this), but now the health bar disappears from the dock spot and it doesn't create an overhead one. If I pull it from the mob it stays.

Thanks! I wish I ran 10 clients at a time :p Typically I run 1-3, but even with only 2 clients running I can accidentally trigger the popup to switch to default UI. Even if there was just a slight delay before making the popup appear. Like, check if PlaySound is running, if not wait 5 seconds, check again, if still not, trigger popup. Not sure your current logic on checking for PlaySound. The popup typically disappears within 1-2 seconds after appearing when running multiple clients.
check now with the new system :)

@Pinco went to an event tonight and the bars above everyone's head caused a LOT of lag, so much so I had to switch back to native EC. I used to be able to control how many mobile bars so that I only showed 5 Blues, 5 Yellows (when I had them on Dock Spots) and 10 Green & 10 Grey and never had lag at events. Is there a way to turn off the over the head bars? It's becoming very annoying now with the bars moving. Thanks
Found a new bug with the mobile bars (dock spot), when you Honor a Grey mob, it's bar turns purple (has always done this), but now the health bar disappears from the dock spot and it doesn't create an overhead one. If I pull it from the mob it stays.
try now :)

those buttons are not for the patcher, try to download the patcher again, probably a file is gone missing somehow...

Getting the same thing. Looks like something deleted the "EC PlaySound" executable from the installation directory. Is that something your UI installs, or part of the EC install? Running UOPatch with Full File Check didn't bring it back either.

I am having the same issue after downloading the latest update for Pinco's. It worked perfectly fine last night. But tonight, not so much.

It appears to be the same error I get when I run Pinco's without administrator rights. But now I am, so it loads Pinco's updater just fine but when I hit the load UO button is when that error pops up.

Holy Crap - I have the same problem but I didn't read this thread before trying to reload Pinco's and now everything is messed up. I had ran some cleanup on AVG and I thought it had deleted some of the files, crap, I hope I don't lose all my settings
