Updated UI

[Brandson]

If anyone is interested or looking for it, I updated my UI and icons dats for FFXI today. You can get them from my livejournal: brandson.livejournal.com.

There is a problem with the red dot disconnection icon. It will display as garbage instead of the usual red dot. That happens both with SE's dats and mine. I expect they'll fix that in a patch in the next few days.

If you try to use any of my older dats, the game will crash when you do a search or try to change your language settings. SE also made some significant changes to the icon dat format. If you use an older version of the icon dat, it will either display no icons or crash, but probably crash.

Let me know if you notice any other problems.

As I said on my livejournal and in the OP, all ui and icon dats other than version 0.10b will crash the game. Also, if you try to install the dats while logged into ffxi or pol, you will crash the game too. Is that what you did?

I downloaded the zip from your Livejornal;

SE also made a number of changes to the icons dat. They added icons for a number of new buffs and debuffs that likely all have to do with salvage. In addition, they changed the way each icon was saved slightly, requiring me to completely rebuild the dat. I did my best with this but it's possible that there may be a few icons that crash or are messed up in some way. If you discover any problems, please post about them here. Thanks. I also elected to use SE's utsusemi icon this time since I've received a lot of feedback about that.

I assumed this meant that the icons would work, possibly crashing if the new icons were being used. Guess I was wrong.

Using your Map Pack and trying to open the Silver Sea Remnants map crashed my game. Update that? >_>

Using your Map Pack and trying to open the Silver Sea Remnants map crashed my game. Update that? >_>

Are you sure you're using my map for that because I didn't include dats for any of the remnants maps in any of my map packs. Perhaps you got a map dat from someone else?

The silver sea remnants maps are:

ROM4\4\34.DAT
ROM4\11\5.DAT
ROM4\11\6.DAT
ROM4\11\7.DAT
ROM4\11\8.DAT
ROM4\11\9.DAT

I plan on updating the map dats again once I have more info on salvage (which I have yet to do).
