Wanted to try out the old Blackbird and gothic F2B ui skins recently.
Apparently when hotbars are locked this shit happens to the main highlighted bar:



or this



Anybody have a clue how to fix/remove it? Maybe there is a part of code in Skindefinition.xml to adjust, or maybe its to delete some thing.

Your input would be greatly appreciated.


PS.: In this video of EE Solo Peak on youtube, Berzerkus also using custom UI skin. Does someone know what it is?

ok i dont know shit about skins because they're gay and retarded, however i was compelled to look into your issue since you arent

the skindefecation.xml file seems to have nothing defining coordinates or locations. the position change needs to occur in the image file. I would attempt the easier of these 2 options:

option1: locate a copy of the default skin's full.tga bar, and compare dimensions in pixels with blackbird/toolbars/full.tga. edit blackbird's full.tga so that the location of each box occurs at the same grid squares using pixels as your unit of measurement (also the highlight file will need a matching change)

option2: determine which direction your blackbird's full.tga and full_highlight.tga must move and either add or remove one vertical line of pixels until you believe the icons are falling in the correct positions.

again i have no knowledge of ddos ui skins so this could be all wrong but i feel like its worth trying

could someone link my ass to a page where I can get some skin?

much appreciated

Yet another thing that was nice in DDO before MoTU...

MoTU killed the skins, and despite the many people asking for an updated skinning set, Turbine has delivered nothing.

curious if you tried any of the offered solutions and what your results were

i installed the latest version of blackbird and was unable to recreate what in your image appears to be an offset in icons. after further examination it appears that neither of our skins are using the actual toolbar from the skin. when i turn a toolbar sideways however, it does use the blackbird skin version.

based on the current information i would say they changed the assetid on horizontal bars, so its failing to load the proper image for the toolbar in both our experiences. but its also possible we have different skin versions, and mine has had incompatible files removed preventing the offset from occuring on my end, because i do not see any issue aside from the fact it isnt using the right toolbar skin.

what version of blackbird are you using and how can i recreate the issue you are experiencing? beyond that, what exactly is the issue anyway- the offset or the default toolbar or the colored outline?

I've been using Info Blue for a few years, before that I was using Blackbird.

i agree
