A new version of the DarqUI Unified Utility is available.
If you are unsure about how to install or upgrade DarqUI, look
here.
Utility version 3.1.3.4 offers the following improvements:
- A Blank Map Fix has been added to the EQ2MAP page. The utility will list which of your characters are affected and will correct their uisettings files (Kammelle, Alils)
- Added a High Contrast utility color theme (Roger Martensson). If Dark Mode doesn't seem quite dark enough, this should do it.
- Onboarding utility tutorial popups are no longer rendered illegibly in Dark, Game, and High Contrast display modes (Roger Martensson)
- The Help folder was not being downloaded for new installations in some instances. This is now corrected
- When importing/exporting/duplicating Group and Raid settings, a dialog has been added to decide how to treat class-specific spell buttons
- A more robust set of network methods reduces retries when listing and retrieving file updates
- Additional logic for locating the game folder in more out-of-the-way places on initial setup (Klawsalot)
- You can now export results from Broker Log queries to a CSV file (Preach)

Improvements to DarqUI are happening all year long, not just at expansion release. I encourage you to visit the
DarqUI Portal Page and check out the many feature updates and tutorials that you may not have been aware of.

DarqUI Unified combines the best of DarqUI, DarqUI Live and EQ2Inventory into one, with some useful new features. Standard
DarqUI users can now choose to make quick, permanent configuration changes right from the game screen while playing, as an alternative to loading up the external window utility. There is no longer a limit to the number of characters that can be customized, and many of the settings that were previously shared by all of your characters can now be configured for each character separately.
DarqUI Live users can take advantage of an all-new configuration app with features like Quick Setup, backup and restore, character and spell file maintenance, and a
new lookup feature that queries Daybreak servers for spell lines and icons to use for your spell buttons. The DarqUI Unified configuration app has been rewritten from the ground up to provide all of the conveniences from the DarqUI Window Utility and the Live Updater. You will find many usability improvements and an uncluttered design that matches the familiar in-game window manager.
Large size windows DarqUI Unified offers larger-size versions of many windows to accommodate higher resolution monitors. Choose the size you prefer from the Updates page of the utility. These include Active Journal (quest helper), Casting Bar, Chat, Dissonance, Examine, Experience Bar, Group, Implied Target, Maintained Spell Monitor, Maintained Spells, Mercenary, NPC Spell Monitor, Pet, Player, Raid, Savagery, Target, Threat and Tracking. DarqUI windows that were already usable with higher resolutions include Detrimental Effects, Gear Buff Macros, Hotbars, Icon Bar and Spell Effects.
EQ2Inventory Track and search equipment, bags, bank, shared bank, house vault, Wardrobe contents, mount and Familiar collections and up to 9 houses, guild hall and player-made dungeons per character from the DarqUI Unified interface.
Broker Logs Display a summary of interesting broker sales metrics for each character: total receipts, most popular item, biggest spender and more. Use the sales grid to calculate additional data such as average price paid for an item. Parse results for today, current week, past 12 months, etc.
Chat Log Parser features keyword, category and date/time searches that recognize English, German and French log files. Use the preset category filters or build your own using regular expressions.
EQ2MAP integration Install and update the official EQ2MAP alongside DarqUI with a single click.
Help system Help files are now available for all DarqUI Unified windows and utility functions. Context-sensitive help information can be accessed externally from the window utility or from the window manager in-game. Use the new, more robust "Make default" feature on the Files page of the utility to set DarqUI as your default. This will prevent needing to use /loadui from the game window which crashes the awesomium browser.
Spell Suggestions There is a new French spell suggestion file in addition to German and English.
DarqUI Unified Notifications is a Windows tray icon that checks periodically for DarqUI and EQ2MAP updates. More information for setting up and using DarqUI_Notify can be found
here. The notifier also includes a
URL Helper that opens website requests in your default Windows browser instead of the in-game browser. The app is optional, and is included in the download on this page.
