The Hidden Forest

details below are from my UIerrors.txt!



tried re running patcher from 7/4 and issue still exists! My UI does not run a modified AA window. I assume that is what the text is referring to.

Ditto. Mostly what they said.

the error list i posted is from running a post SoD client. I have since downloaded and patched a copy of SoD from steam. The client does not crash, thankfully. however, any spider or snake i come across is a human model.

this patcher needs to be recalled!

Did you try the patcher with the new install? (make a backup copy of your EQ directory before you try that) The patcher is working perfectly fine for the rest of the players (200+), no need to "recallit". My bet is that you are using a torrent or patched client why you run into some errors. With a clean and legal install, it will work perfectly fine.

Other than that Vaion will look into your issue if it still not resolved.

yes

i am also getting texture issues when looking at the sky. very similar to the "west bug" that was on live for a long time. you look in a certain direction and everything goes transparent.

I think your GFX card is about to give it up, lol. The patcher has definitely nothing to do with west-bug type issues.

The west bug issue is definitely not related to this at all. We changed 1 filed in the defualt UI to enable the new icons.

The issue that people are experiencing is due to the folder being modified by another server's filed (P1999 for instance). When I added in the new icons, i used clean folders from fresh installs of both SoD and Titanium. When the new icons were defined in the UI_Animations.xml file, if it was already modified, then it tried looking for specific files that no longer exist.

To remedy the issue (and this works because I just tried it with SoF/SoD/UF/Titanium cliend) You will need to have a clean default folder. If you cannot find one on, (you overwrote it/deleted the originals) then please visit the below link and get a clean AND working copy of the default UI.

YOU ONLY NEED TO DOWNLOAD THESE FILES IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING UI ISSUES WITH THE NEW INSTALLER.

SoD/SoF/UF Default UI: SoD/SoF/UF Defualt UI Folder
Titanium Defualt UI: Titanium Default UI Folder

Steps to install those folders:
1) Download the appropriate folder for what client you use.
2) Extract the folder
3) Copy and paste the folder and all its contents into you UIFILES folder found in your Everquest directory.
4) Run the 7-22 Installer again to make sure you update to latest server files

These files and instructions have been added to the THF Installer page as well for future reference.

Again, we apologize for the issues that some players are experiencing, but the installer works perfectly if you have a clean default UI folder.

given that the issue did not arrise until i had changed clients, it is highly unlikely that my graphics card is goin gout. esp since it runs other directx games with no issues.

thanks for the update Vaion!

I have done all listed above and I now get a client crash error before it comes to the character select screen.

Any help?

I am having the same issue.
I had the UI error, and I replaced the default UI with the one provided in the download.

However, I am using the UnderFoot client and get a crash to desktop right after the loading screen, just before character select comes up.

Please help, as I like my UF client and don't want to play with Titanium *yuck*.
