the power of the internet

!! Man you guys are quick, I just uploaded that thing! Devla is the man though, he's on top of it all. I hope everyone grabs the new version quick because that chat thing was annoying. :-( I was sweating all day at work today knowing I couldn't fix it until I got home.

Interface question - Tool Tip Text

I'm having a hard time isolating this little quirk. Notice in the picture that the text box for the bank items is cut off by the screen edge? I have deleted the layout and chat files from the WTF directory and just cant seem to straighten it out. Any ideas?

Not sure why deleting your layout files isn't fixing this for you, but to have the best control over it, I'd recommend using a mod for your tooltips like tipbuddy or something. You can grab tipbuddy here, or just look through the downloads section for tooltip mods.

I'm using Insomniax's Recompilation 1.6 Beta 2 with a few additions. I'm already using Tip Buddy and disabled the Custom Tooltip option. Sorry I didn't provide these details to begin with. This issue only happens with the bank "bags". Does Tip Buddy affect these text boxes as well? Thank you for the continued help and patience.

I'm not sure what would be causing the problem. You might want to try posting this info (or I can merge the threads, if you would prefer) in the thread Chester has going for TipBuddy, here. It's not a problem for me to just merge this into that, but I didn't want to do it without warning you first, didn't want you wondering what had happened to your thread.

Should do all of your tooltips... grab the latest version and overwrite the current tipbuddy folder you have and see if that fixes you up... if not I'll see if I can dig up some alternate solutions. Might also try re-enabling the "custom tooltip" option and see if that helps.

Possible problem or perhaps I just don't know what I am doing - which is even more possible.

When the trageted mob is "in-my'face" and I mouse over I get the name/character of the mob and [YOU] in the information box.

See attatched screen shot for better explanation of what I am trying to say.

the [You] is simply showing you your targets target.

Get a friend to target you and then cursor over them, you'll see the same thing again

Targets target problem

I love the targets target function of Tipbuddy, but it seems to be in conflict with flagrsp. If I have flagrsp enabled, I cannot see the targets target displayed in the tooltip.

Would it be possible to make these two mods compatible with each other please?

Thank you.

TipBuddy and Necrosis?

Installed the latest version and I seem to have a conflict with Necrosis LDC (which admittedly is old), the error is "stack overflow" in TipBuddy. Anyone else getting this? I reverted back to the January release of TipBuddy and all is well again.
