Great!! thanks.
That lock settings is an anti-patch override? ;-)

There doesn't seem to be any provision for binding a key to Open Paperdoll.

When I tried my key (R-Alt+P), it pulled up the health bar of the current target, and that function appears in the keybinding list where paperdoll should be. Does that replace it? Can we have both?

I use Open Paperdoll quite often whilst running. It forces your avatar to update and all the hostiles in the area target you. This is very handy if you use EV or EQ. Using the run keys + the paperdoll button is a bit clumsy compared to using mouse to run + keybinding to open paperdoll.

by defect, after the tank-override patch, the open paperdoll key is C (my auto-invisibility), to me, before i changed the keybind, each time i strike c both cast invisibility and open paperdoll,
and what the h*** i did not want to be targeted in that moment becouse a risky situation in Prism of light xD
strange, there is a point after patch two actions can be binded to same key? :| I did no try but sure if i change another key to a existing one it overrides with typical yes/no question...

Sorry for that, iam not ready yet with the new independent keybinding system, but i have a solution for you.

Make a script macro, which include the following:

script MenuBarWindow.TogglePaperdollWindow()

drop into a macro or hotbar like you want and bind a key.

Technically it is no problem to bind a key twice or more, only the interface checks if the key is already in a list. One time stored it is no problem to have a double key binding. The problem with this patch is the resetting the whole keybindings, which are now individual stored on character. And this system doesnt check if the key is already binded, abit strange but, Mythic thought this is the most important problem atm and changed it.

Thanks, I will do that for all characters.

I like the pet name lock/unlock feature and the ability to put in spaces and other such characters, plus the profile save button, and a few other nice touches. I'm using my own skin over the top of it as a matter of preference but I like the functions you've put in.

*edit* Added bonus, I just noticed I can now price my animals directly by naming them "selling iron beetle 20K"

What do you mean opening your paperdoll updates your avatar? It makes the hostiles aggro you? This is weird.

Happens in Classic also, very good for large spawns if you're a dexxer, and good for manipulating spawn in general. When you're moving and you toggle your paperdoll your avatar "refreshes" in the game world.. there's a slight rubber-band effect. The avatar refreshes if you recall in or resurrect near hostiles, also, which is why you sometimes get pasted in those situations. Not sure if it's related but toggling your paperdoll closes your bankbox.

I want to release my final version of the Interface in a few months and need people to test and work with, i need your suggestions, your ideas, your inspirations.

If you are intrested contact me via ICQ 124697918, via email [email protected] or via PM.

Thanks!

 

[Radix]

For suggestions i would say a lot of things xD but at first glance, thinking in KR last days, i miss a lot the feature of seeing each item property in diferent colors (max mods in golden, strong ones deep blue, elemental damage in 4 colors, weak mods in black-gray...), and seeing critical hits in a bigger / diferent font.

regards

 

[Fink]

Item properties would be a good one to revisit. It would make looting more discerning, and it would also serve to highlight just how weak Item ID is as it stands.

 

[Gildar]

Wow... can't believe I forgot to make a package for it...

Item Property Intensity highlighting is available (still not very polished as far as the setup goes, but it works):
http://uo.modders-exchange.net/modpackaging

Requires the CustomSettingsWindow, CustomSettings, and CustomLocalization mods.


Lucitus might be able to incorporate that into his skin, and work on other features.

Thanks! I will look over it and maybe polish it up a bit or two, i will repost it when it is done.

Waits patiently ;-) this is the one I have been waiting for

Very good coding stlye, ohh my old own player color *S*, Gildar can you post me a link please, for the syntax of the

 regex="^Engraved: (.*)$",

i need to understand this ^(.*)$ in the string functions.

I think me too, surely it don't take too long for Lucitus to include ;-)

Requires the CustomSettingsWindow, CustomSettings, and CustomLocalization mods.

but if we can't wait more, we only need to include all this files into the UI directory overwriting all, right?

Oooooh oooooh, one more one more!! xDD You guys recall the sooo nice animal lore gumps of KR? all info in a single page (what's the point of scrolling 4 pages for the same info! another wink for our beloved stuck playerbase?)
That would be also a nice add-on

...brainstorming...
Regards.

 

[lucitus]

Yeah iam on it but it is a big thing, especially i have to thank the team who carried together the data.

But there is much todo for a good highlighting feature. This is only the first try...

 

[Gildar]

but if we can't wait more, we only need to include all this files into the UI directory overwriting all, right?

I'd recommend creating a mods directory, and then create a sub-directory for each mod, and extract the contents of the appropriate zip into that folder...

Soo...

/userinterface/YOURSKINHERE/mods/customsettings/(custom settings files here)
/userinterface/YOURSKINHERE/mods/customsettingswindow/(custom settings window files here)
etc...


Helps keep things organized.

This is a good page for Lua Regular Expressions:

Damm iam very busy with my studies atm, i have not really time doing anything here please be patient, thanks!

 

[Fink]

Scroll bar for *own* paperdoll profile would be good.

Good luck with the studies.
