Hi all,

I've used Jappme Ivy for as long as I can remember, so I was so happy to see Jappme updating his interface again.

However, I'm having massive problems getting his new UI on my system. I've tried all I can think of, and Id really appreciate some help.

Here is how the UI looks on my system at the moment: link (http://www.ukimagehost.com/view/5ac6f85a6d9d4f1c.jpg)
This is 1.03 released today.

You'll see from that I have two 'bags' on my screen (bottom left). As I understand it, the one with the white star is supposed to be where the other bag is, and it is supposed to work like the menu button. I know I have to edit the skin ini file thing to match my resolution.

My res is 1280x1024 so I edited the line to read ' <Element ID="ToolbarField" X="328" Y="824" Width="1024" Height="200"> ' as I thought I was supposed to change X and Y with the calculations given in the example in the file. Are those wrong for my resolution?

You'll also see in the screenshot that my crafting window looks VERY strange.

Can anyone offer any help please? I'd be very grateful.

I'd like to use the new updates to the UI, but as it is, I'll have to switch back to 1.0.

1. You have to restart the game after activating the skin. Otherwise the changes to the windows doesn't work.

2. Which values do you use exactly?

Hi Liesse,

normally it solve the problem when you restart the client after changing the skin. Sometimes I have to log out and log in twice. I don't know why, but it could be the solution.

You have to change the line 22 as follow:
<Element ID="ToolbarField" X="128" Y="824" Width="1024" Height="200">

1280-1024/2 = 128
1024-200=824

If you have any longer problems feel free to send me a PM. :)

I'm also having trouble with this skin.

The skills bar jumps to the middle of the screen everytime I swap to this skin.


My element ID: <Element ID="ToolbarField" X="171" Y="568" Width="1366" Height="768"> <!-- Resolution 1680 x 1050 -->

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated :)

Which resolution are you using? 1680x1050? Then you should use:
<Element ID="ToolbarField" X="328" Y="824" Width="1024" Height="200"> <!-- Resolution 1680 x 1050 -->
since JappMe uses the formulas to calculate:
X = (1680-1024)/2 = 128
Y = 1050-200= 850

From your line, I'd guess you are using: 1366x768. If so, use:
<Element ID="ToolbarField" X="171" Y="568" Width="1024" Height="200"> <!-- Resolution 1366 x 768 -->

And for your information:
X = (1366-1024)/2 = 171
Y = 768-200= 568

If you use another screen resolution; use the formula or reply here your screen resolution.

Ps. better remove that screenshot Zakiwis, it contains Vent details with password. Not convenient to post that...

Cool, I'll try that.

Thanks for the tip. PS those details are very old and do not exist anymore, but thanks for letting me know. I'll clear all that old stuff up

Ok, thats correct, that is the intention. Place for the chat window and other things.

I try to minimize the main panel and in the course of a solution I changed the icons with a blank graphic.
Now is the problem, that there are two places for the same icons. One in the mainbar and the other in the menu.
So when I changed the icon in the mainbar, there are no icons in the menu.

I can live with this solution, cause for me it is primarily important to clean up the screen.
All menus are available with shortcuts and I used them very intense.

I have a similar problem. The interface looks nice now that I reset the game, but it still doesn't, how you say, "fit like a glove".

I have a very wide screen monitor, but for performance reasons, I run the game in 1024x768 resolution.

What do I need to do?

Nice skin, btw.
