About WerikUI

WerikUI

WerikUI is the first Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures Graphical User Interface (GUI) modification.

This mod tries to appeal to those who prefer the cleared out, minimalistic but at the same time informative GUI over visually richer interfaces which take up more screen space.

Installation Guideline

  1) Make a backup copy of your <Age of Conan>\cd_image\Gui\Customized\
     folder if you are using other modifications.
     They might be incompatible.
  2) Unpack the downloaded file in a temporary directory.
  3) From the above temporary directory, copy the whole cd_image folder into
     your Age of Conan directory.

Revision Number changes (Out of Date Issues)

Every time Funcom patches the game client the revision number increases. This can cause that the modifications will be outdated and won't load anymore. In this case you should get a warning during the launch of the game.

You can update the revision numbers yourself, though I'd not recommend it. If the revision number of a file changes, there is a big chance that file was modified. If you update the old file's revision number, you might loose new features which were introduced by the new patch.

Knowing this if you want to update your files, you must replace the revision number inside the XML files. The XML files are always in cd_image\Gui\Customized\ .

Look for the the line:

   <!-- $Change: '''XXXXX''' $ (must be within the first 200 characters of the file) -->


where, XXXXX is the revision number. It is usually the second line of the file.

To find out what the correct revision number is, you have to check the exact same file inside cd_image\Gui\Default\. These are the default Age of Conan GUI layout files.

Example:

Lets say you want to change the revision number of your customized BottomBar.xml because at loading time the game tells you that it's out of date.

In this case, you go to cd_image\Gui\Default\Views\HUD, open BottomBar.xml, and look at the second line. The revision number is the number you can find between $Change: and the next $ sign.

Now you go to cd_image\Gui\Customized\Views\HUD\, open BottomBar.xml, find the second line again, and replace the number with the new revision number. Save the file and you are good to go!

    Since the June 2 patch, I am getting a glitch that allows me to 'buff' myself 2x, which in turn displays my HP incorrectly on the health bar (and in turn, Skills & Attributes).

    In disabling the UI, the HP in Skills & Attributes shows up as it should, and shows up fine as well on the health/etc bars.

    NINJAEDIT
    Strike that. It appears that there is a fundamental problem, but it's on Funcom's end.

    Ah well. Awesome UI :)

    Please help, I installed the addon and everything looks great, but one small problem:

    I can't bind the top bar in the the key bindings. I checked the control and the only options are; Action Bars, Extended Action Bars 1. No.1 thru 20, Extended Action Bars 2. No.1 thru 20, and Action bar swaping at the bottom.

    Its probably something simple I'm over looking, can someone please point me in the right direction so I can get my top bar to have its attacks mapped 1,2,3 and my bottom bar with lower right and left attacks being Q, and E.

    Thanks in advanced for the help.

    Scionith, its because the top bar is a special bar. It is accessible with the same key as the bar below + Ctrl (or alt - cant remember ;))

  • #49

    So then it's not possible to have then set up like the standard gui after you get to level 40+. With all the attacks grouped up by each other with the proper key bindings?

    Upper Left on the top bar set to 1. Overhead attack on the top bar set to 2. Upper Right on the top bar set to 3. Lower Left on the bottom bar((Where you're upper left was before level 40.)) set to Q, and Lower Right on the bottom bar three spaces in ((Where you're upper right was before level 40)) set to E)

    Best aoc mod out there. Thanks werik. and your "tutoril" on fixing the revision number is so easy to follow, i did it in 5 minutes. very good mod werik.

  • #51

    The installation is a bit unclear. Cant get it to load, do I need to copy the Werik UI folder to both the Customized and Default folders ? Or is it not loading because the revision is incorrect ?

    another mod developer made a change to the target bar hud, Symmetry and Minimalism. It added an alternate method of identifying solo/elite content by tagging it with letters instead of the very unexplained picture icon. Would love for your UI to mimic this approach.
