I removed the descriptions months ago. Back then it was possible to have the icons in multiple colums. Unfortunately SOE changed that.

The buff situation in Vanguard is insane With a group of shaman, templer, disciple and bloodmage the buffs exeed any screen :P

I soon will release a new version where it is possible to switch off the benefical buffs window completely in the settings. I might add a window with descriptions as well and allow users to toggle the window they want.

Should i ?

Hmm just noticed the screenies ther eis text descriptors fo the effects window, I do not get this, any reason this may happen?

The debuff icons didnt align vertical. The bug was in eu_mods/Windows/eu_AttachedAbilities.xml

Hey, not sure we will end up doing a dual release of this mod. However, you can manually update the infomap files by downloading the new info map and dropping the files ontop of eugam's infomap directory.

You should note however, that Eugam recently updated this mod to the latest and greatest infomap release.

Not to hi-jack this mod thread, but as an update on where we stand on doing a dual release: I am still working on some crafting mods and plan to do the pet/minion windows before releasing mine, or my side, which ever it ends up being. I would still love to do a dual release with Eugam, but it's hard to coordinate when both people have such little time to devote to it


Eugam, what was the bug in the negative effects window if you don't mind sharing, I should see if I have this as well.

Exmortis

heyas spiky and EU,

I was wondering if we can manually update infomap within your UImod or wait for the official guru version from you guys?

Keep up the MUCH appreciated great work, ever get to Ottawa Canada and I will buy you guys a beer.

The tiny bug in the negative buffs window is fixed. I ll upload an update on the weekend

Thank you for continuing work on my favorite add-on. I love this interface and have tried quite a few of the others.

You've saved me a lot of grief knowing that someone knowledgeable is keeping the interface up-to-date.

Thank you!

Exmortis

Thank you so much for once again CMOD resurection. So far no UI mod even comes close to this one. I am still using the old resurected one that kinda works but has wonky issues.

I will be updating to this tomorrow before I play.

Keep up the great work!!!

Sounds like a good idea. To avoid game updates breaking my mod, I actually copied all current interface assets to a folder in the mod itself called "GU5" and have left no dependencies on the default folder. So technically things should remain working after updates, though the mod would need updating to include new features. Anyway, I'm PM'ing you my contact info.

Cheers

Spiked feel free to use whatever you like. I am a casual player and dev

Here is my proposal. If you look into eu_CMod you will recognize that i keep the different mods in seperate folders. Like

I am doing this to keep maintenance low. If something breaks after a patch i can just disable this part of the mod and activate the Default. Its not the technically most perfect solution, but maybe the best solutionto give users a tiny chance of maintenance. Devs come and go and unfotunately mods become obsolete if no one is maintaining them. It also allows users to upgrade custom mods like InfoMap on their own.

How about you add your own folder like spiked_mods. There you could put in your non-transparent hotbars and whatever you like to mod. We could provide two different Index.xml and SkinInfo.xml and let the user decide which Index they want to use. It would be possible to add it to the settings, but multiple instances of the same function just create overhead.

Best would be to PM me and tell me your email address.

I found your beta ui a tad too late. I was also working on updating the old CMod. Seeing as how nobody likes double work, I would like to formally ask for permission to use some of your custom graphics that carry on the orginial CMod look. Perhaps we can also work together, though the one thing I did not like about CMod was the "invisible" hotbars, so there would need to be extra options to enable/disable that, or two seperate builds; but I definately wouldn't mind working together to cut down dev time

Glad you like it Mormac.

The eu_PURgE_Craft_ActionPanel was some old experimental stuff. Didnt do anything but spam the logs :P That should be fixed in v1.6.6 now. I ll fix the other log spammer with the next release.

Mormac

Good news

I dumped the crappy CMod_Buffs.xml and modified the default xml to look like the CMod buffs windows. Looks good and is most compatible to the default UI. I ll upload an update tonight or tomorrow morning.


This is also what i am working most on, to return to the default structures. To destroy the default sturcture of the xml files is the wrong way for mods.


So far it seems the mod works well. If anyone is using this mod i d be happy to read about glitches and bugs :P I cant promise but will try to even them out.

The random bug when harvesting and getting a 2nd loot window is known. The harvesting window will close after the next gathering. But i look into it. I am wondering if the default UI has this bug too

eugam

I am a casual. There wont be any turbo development. I am trying to fix anything GU4 and GU5 related and i will add some stuff whenever i have some time to do so.
