Frequency UI with htw mods

UI loaded fine... once I zoned I lost all borders on the windows. There a way to keep the border by default on the MQ window so that it may be minimized?

Yes, the chat windows have no title bar. You can change that, bu editing the EQUI_ChatWindow.xml, but honestly, easiest would be just to delete the EQUI_ChatWindow.xml from the freqhtw folder, and let it use the default one.

Looks like this UI has the current group window bug still. I loaded it up and crashed as soon as I was invited to a group.

NO NO NO!!

If this UI crashes you, then your MQ2 code still has "the bug". Fix your source, and update.

While in a group in game, try these, if they don't work, then your MQ2 ain't right:

/echo ${Group.Member[1].Level}
/echo ${Group.Member[1].Class}

do that for however many group members. YOU are 0. So if you have a full group, you should be able to do members 1 through 5.

If any of these show up as being incorrect (empty, rubbish, NULL), bingo, you found your problem (and it's not the UI).

And honestly, I guarantee that's what you're going to find, with this UI, or Frequency's, or any that use these data members, where your MQ2 code is not up to snuff.

Having a similar crash problem as well. Solo nothing goes wrong and I am fine, but as soon as someone invited me to a group and I hit follow, I crash to the desktop. Ive tried clearing all MQ and Freq off my computer and downloading and recompiling all the newer versions, and it still does not work. I figured maybe it had something to do with the HUD so i took that out as well, and still, every time I join a grp i crash to desktop and get the error saying that MQ2 has blocked the sony error report for my safety, or whatever that generic error is.

You have to update MQ AND the UI. Make sure you have latest release of both.

I beleive I have the latest of both. Used the latest version of both i could find and when that still didnt, work, tried using my friends custom Freq UI and that still doesnt work either. Anything in MQ I have to change or something?

I believe the following fix should solve this issue (copied from the Bug Reports Forum below):

eqgame.h:
Code: Select all
#define instGroup                                          0x909D90
bug is gone for me, all group data works as it should :)

True, but that's in the latest source (0419a). I even went so far as to extract my own UI zip I offer to a dir of its own in uifiles, and download 0419a and put it in a temp dir and compile it, all lonesome like (even ran mq2auth just for that copy). Ran that copy of MQ2, logged in, got in a group, no problems were seen with MQ or the UI, and any echo of ${Group} member info showed up fine and dandy.

0419 has that bug, I believe. 0419a zip does not.

MQ2 + the UI works fine, sorry I dunno what to tell ya.
