EA Ithilien Notes

Here is a quick FAQ on the Ithilien update, since I rarely check this site, or this email.

I don't like the Ithilien frame. How to fix?

Edit the SkinDefinition.xml file in the EA Ithilien folder using any text editor and delete lines in the "gondor" section near the top of the document that refer to the northithilien_flora_tga graphic.

I don't like the tracker flowers. I want the rings back.

Edit the SkinDefinition.xml file in the EA Ithilien folder using any text editor and delete lines near the top of the document that refer to the questtracker_quest_button.

I like the virtue panel labels, but not the art treatment, and two labels are missing. Can I have the labels without the garden?

You have failed at being an elf. Replace the traits_bg.tga graphic in the EA Ithilien folder with the traits_bg_copy.tga graphic. That should be what you are looking for. I spent quite a while on this panel, and ultimately I was not willing to work more to make anything better. The actual virtue icon placements are compressed upwards for example, creating asymmetry.

What about the trait tree tabs, collections tabs, alerts, etc.?

Originally I did the deed log tabs, but then Turbine kept adding more tabs, and we didn't have the graphics for months after each update. So it was a mixed situation that dragged on, and you had to keep going back and updating. I'd rather have things consistent and tidy during long periods. If I could easily sit down and reskin just the trait tree panel, I would, but I found it difficult originally, and haven't had the interest to go back.

Not so long ago i had to replace my PC & today i decided to give a try again to the custom UIs. I tested Elven Adventuress UI, not the newest & seems that havent being touched in a while, but cause im in the mood for happy colors & found that still work well on all panels. I love how the happy colors, & nature theme match with my custom flower, leafs & butterflies cursors theme & works neatly with windowed screen as well as full screen. I hope that this pretty UI don't get forgotten & receive updates when the new legendary panel of next expansion, gets applied.

Thanks so much for your feedback, Yamy. It looks like the interface is still OK in general after a few years away from the game. I don't see a new "skinpack" of files for Gundabad or anything yet, but if it comes, and I'm playing in some months, I'll see what I can do. I did have some trouble installing my own interface to a new LotRO installation. If anyone wants to try this interface, here are some tips based on my issues:

1. "EA Mirkwood" refers to north Mirkwood. It's not a super-old file from the Mirkwood expansion. This confused me! It really is the most recent version.

2. My first download from this site failed to include the skindefinition.xml and other files in the zip. Subsequent downloads did include them ... so if the interface isn't showing up at all in the user interface selection in options/ui, be sure there is an xml file is in the main EA Mirkwood folder with all the graphics folders. (Some other junk is there too.) This was super confusing as well.

3. And you'll need to create a ui folder in your documents/lotro folder, and a skins folder inside that, like the instructions above say.

Good luck, and thanks for checking out my interface. Obviously it was a lot of work. See you on Treebeard? Maybe?

Actually, i already found a home at Gladden. The people is very helpful, nice & friendly there. Mutual respect & tolerance is priority. Most play at a soft pace & everybody likes to chill & share food recipes & other cultural traditions. Feel free to pay us a visit!

Checking for posible enhancements

Im just looking aroung to see if there are new updates to download of this beautiful UI. I found another author of a different UI BrandynPublic Piecemieled Custom UI https://lotrointerface.com/downloads...1181#cmnt22579 , that got some interesting ideas & i though that will be lovely if something similar can be done on the one. The person changed the usual quest ring icons & turned them into scroll of varied colous & kinds to represent the categories. Here will be a nice touch to do the same but with flowers of varied colours or kinds instead.

Hi Yamy, It's unlikely that I will be updating this interface. LotRO would need to release a "Return to Moria: Levels 2-9" or something with a similar level of interest. Thanks for your support for interface developers, however. If any news manifests about returning to LotRO, it could be on my blog at ElvenAcademy (dot) Org, where I continue to proselytize Elf supremacy. Good luck and happy gaming.

Hello. I love this interface! It's been my favorite for a while.

I did notice a while back that the face-zoom button in the Dressing Room window seemed to be missing an image when hovered over in 'pressed' state. Today, I finally poked around the UI files. I opened up the SkinDefinition.xml and found this error (line 942):

<Mapping ArtAssetID="button_face_highlight" FileName="bcharacter/utton_face_highlight.tga"></Mapping>

It just looks like a 'b' was misplaced. It should be this:

<Mapping ArtAssetID="button_face_highlight" FileName="character/button_face_highlight.tga[/color]"></Mapping>

I fixed it in my file, and now I no longer get the weird 'missing image' on the button. I thought you'd like to know about it. Cheers!

Hi Astalith,

Thanks so much for the bug fix. I'm happy (and surprised) the interface is still mostly functional and still enjoyed by some players. I don't think a re-upload is advisable given that I'd probably muddle something else ... but to re-iterate for the sake of others, the XML line should be edited as per Astalith's research. Cheers, mellon.

Hey, welcome back! I'm still using this UI. I know there are other elven/nature UI but what i can say? This is my favorite. Are you just passing by or gonna be at LOTRO again? LOTRO doesn't have Moria level 2 to 9 but now have scalable difficulty content. Also, the dev +Scenario confirmed that Elven Premium housing will be released as next housing area. (Crossfingers for 2024). I hope that you retake this project again.
