TK / Remelio / Tia Spellbar
 
Description
This is another mod I've been using and updating forever. I never liked the square G2 style spellgem bars so I updated this ones code with a 9th gem, and added a little curly at the bottom so it looks pretty good whether or not you've purchased the 9th spell gem AA. Also faded out most of the book button at the bottom of the bar so it's just a faint outline.

Original code by Remelio and art by T.King.

Version 1.01 - Updated Readme.txt with clearer instructions.
Version 1.02 beta - Updated for SoF with 10th Spell Gem.
n.b. I dont have the expansion, so the art around the 10th gem is mostly guesswork. Once I get it I'll tweak the art to make it a little better, but basic functionality should work.
Version 1.02 beta2 - Fixed squishy art due to tired coder 8)
Version 1.02 final - Made art a lil nicer. I'm clearly not an artist, and certainly not up to T.King's standards, but it still seems to be pretty decent no matter if you have 8, 9, or 10 spell gems.
Version 1.03 - Fixed for patch.
Version 1.04 - Looks like they are adding 2 more spell gems. Fixed for patch but obviously untested until the next expansion arrives.
Version 1.05 - Updated for UnF. 2 more spelll gems, and a little extra art. Hope you like it!
Version 1.05b - Updated installation instructions for clarity, should fix people's issues with the final 4 gems not being rounded.
Version 1.05c - Fixed a couple silly mistakes, but dont know why the gem holders for the final 4 gems are not showing up now with HoT. Ideas would be appreciated!
Version 1.06 - Added 13th (and 14th) spots for spells. Artwork doesn't dangle that far, and it's untested because I don't have RoS (feel free to donate!). Also relocated the spellbook button to the top because it was getting kinda long and looked weird.
Version 1.06a - Whoops... fixed a small art bug.
Version 1.07 - Fixed for stupid layer/transparency changed on DBG's part... 14 years we went without fiddling with it, guys! Stop it!

Problem with this

I downloaded this HOWEVER it says that you updated to include the 9th slot....and your pic indicates that there is a 9th slot...but when you actually download it...there are only 8 slots. Also how can I get rid of the curly? It hangs down so low that it interferes with being able to actually click/open on the spell book due to its size running into/under pieces. Great UI though Looking forward to revision )

Delete the listing from <SpellGem item = "CSPW_Spell8"> to </SpellGem> and replace with this:

<SpellGem item = "CSPW_Spell8">
<ScreenID>CSPW_Spell8</ScreenID>
<RelativePosition>true</RelativePosition>
<Location>
<X>7</X>
<Y>270</Y>
</Location>
<Size>
<CX>40</CX>
<CY>32</CY>
</Size>
<SpellGemDrawTemplate>
<Highlight>TK_SpellGemHighlightD</Highlight>
<Background>TK_SpellGemBackground</Background>
<Holder>TK_SpellGemHolder</Holder>
</SpellGemDrawTemplate>
<SpellIconOffsetX>8</SpellIconOffsetX>
<SpellIconOffsetY>4</SpellIconOffsetY>
</SpellGem>

That will fix the issue for you

Very nice spell bar. I use it and recommended it to everyone. One little problem I finally noticed. I just got 9th spell slot AA. There is a slot that appears after you get the AA and etc but the 9th spell slot looks all weird like the normal spells bar. It isnt round and smooth like the other Spell Icons shown. Can you help me with it?

Thats weird. Just did some testing. Seems like something changed within the past few patches in the animations parsing.

Anyways, you need to copy your EQUI_Animations.xml from the uifiles\default folder to your custom UI folder, then edit it, replacing the 3 sections (near the end of the file) with the changes listed in "Changes to Animation xml.txt". A simple cut/paste over the section will do. Save it, then reload your UI.

I didnt include a custom EQUI_Animations.xml file simply because that file tends to change a lot between patches. Thats why Remelio originally built and maintained a patcher program for the original version of this mod. I suppose I can try to make one too if the copy/pasting is too much. I *did* test this when I posted the mod originally and it worked with no changes to the animations file, but go fig.

PS I've never found the curly to interfere on any of my toons with the lil book, 9th gem or no, but if it bugs you just follo Sonjah's excellent directions.

I've used a slightly modified version of this spell bar for years, and I think its great. However, when I install this, the bottom 1/3 of the background graphic appears squished vertically, and the bottom 3 spell gems are just floating without being lined up with the graphic, no idea why though...

I kinda have the same problem. I installed this yesterday and it does well accept with the last 2 spell slots that seem to just be there. No art at all on the last 2 spell gems.

Hope this helps

Re: Squishy art... Whooops, my bad. I had updated a bit of code to fix that after I made the zip file to upload, then added it again to the zip. I guess WinZip didnt replace it.

Sorry bout that, updating it now. The artwork is still a bit of a guess but I have the xpac now, soon as I get some AA's I'll take a look at the 10th gem curly more closely.

Not sure why your 9th and 10th gems are floating around. As I said, I really need to get the 10th gem on a toon before I can make this 100%, so gimme a couple days.

*edit* Tested with 10th gem, both 9th and 10th are in their proper place and the zip file is updated so that the art isnt squished. If your gems are floating out in nomansland then it's something to do with your mod specifically.

Started playing with the art, but not happy yet, will get it spiffed up soon 8)

*edit Dec 2* Hope anyone likes the art, I am pretty bad at it, and it was acting a lil funky at the transition, squishing it in weird ways I havent been able to figure out... and since EQ still crashed after like 20-30 /loadskins, it's tough to really beat down that bug. Anyways, suggestions are welcome.

Squishy Art

I used the original spellgem bar, and Adobe Photoshop, to add the 9th and 10th spell slots, by picking a spot in the repeat, copying, and inserting it. This way, the little curlique on the bottom of spellgem 8 originally, is still at the bottom. This also lets the system draw the 2 empty gems.

My only problem is the xml file changes. I am a novice with html, and I don't know exactly how long the CastBar02 portion is now, to change the Y component, and draw it properly. I would appreciate anyone's input on this correction. I would be happy to send a zip to compare with.

Thanks

I dont know either. Originally there was a 256x256 boundary limit for texture definitions. With the DX9 upgrade back a couple years ago, that may have changed, but I've seen no documentation from the eq devs. There's always been a 1024^2 size for the main textures but I dont know if it was bumped up to that for addins like this one. Perhaps I'm not understanding what you're saying and you could post a SS of what you've done?

If you try changing the bitmap into a 1024x1024 with transparancy image, with a full vertical spellbar then send it to me, and I can play around with it.

Keep in mind, my personal preference is that if the toon does *not* have the extra spell gem aa's, that the client doesnt draw the greyed out gems. I can do that now, I just never liked it. It looks a lil cheesy imho, and prefer just the temptation of the vines creeping down. But I'm willing to help if you'd like to make a mod of a mod of a mod 8)

Horizontal coming?

Great job!

I was curious if you planned on making this in horizontal as well.

Re: Horizontal coming?

Thanks! Have had a few requests for that. Maybe once I fix up all my other UI elements I'll give it a shot. God this patch sucks!

Will you be updating this for the Underfoot expansion to have 2 more spell gem slots?

I have no idea how to do this kinda stuff. But in all honesty, it was never the way it looked that got me to using it. It was that I liked the round spell gems and how small and compact it was. Even if it doesn't look good I'd still use it. It's the functionality of it that I love

Hehe well thanks for that, though I've just been a maintainer (albeit for something like 5-7 years now?) Anywho, been saving aa's on one of my toons so that I can fix it as soon as the expansion comes out (work permitting!)

My tiny target window is soooo gonna be broke tho! ;;

PS. Ooh just had an idea, maybe something growing up from the bottom too, that could be fun, will work on it, tho it's impossible to see atm heh...
