Since Drumstix excellent misc ui example did go vip and im not among the priveliged im just gonna post some snippets instead of some adds and modifications i made.

This is a hott example that i added in with the clean name aswell as the actual spawn name for reference. Use it or not, just an example.

Code: Select all

   TargetoftargetInfo=1,620,110,255,234,8,Target of target Information: 	       
 		 Hott=1,620,125,255,255,255,${If[${Target.ID},${Me.TargetOfTarget.CleanName},]}
 		Hott2=1,620,140,255,255,255,${If[${Target.ID},${Me.TargetOfTarget},]}

Heres some of the bonuses you might get on your gear if you want to see them, i stacked strikethrough, shielding, spellshield, accuracy, stun resist.

Code: Select all

     MyStrike=1,988,094,255,255,255,ST 
  MyStrikePct=1,1005,094,255,255,255,${Me.StrikeThroughBonus}% 
MySpellshield=1,1028,094,255,255,255,SS
MySpellshdPct=1,1045,094,255,255,255,${Me.SpellShieldBonus}% 
 MyStunresist=1,1070,094,255,255,255,SR
 MyStunresPct=1,1085,094,255,255,255,${Me.StunResistBonus}% 
   Myaccuracy=1,1110,094,255,255,255,ACC
MyAccuracyPct=1,1135,094,255,255,255,${Me.AccuracyBonus}% 
  Myshielding=1,1155,094,255,255,255,SLD
  MyshieldPct=1,1177,094,255,255,255,${Me.ShieldingBonus}%

and finally a songwindow, found that lacking in the drumstix example.

Code: Select all

  SongInfo=1,800,5,255,234,8,Song Information: 
     Mysong1=1,800,020,255,255,255, ${If[${Me.Song[1].Name.NotEqual["NULL"]},1    ${Me.Song[1]},]} 
  SongTimer1=1,800,020,000,255,000, ${If[${Me.Song[1].Name.NotEqual["NULL"]},1    ${Me.Song[1]},]}  ${If[${Me.Song[1].Duration.TimeHMS.NotEqual["NULL"]},[${Me.Song[1].Duration.TimeHMS}],]} 
     MySong2=1,800,035,255,255,255, ${If[${Me.Song[2].Name.NotEqual["NULL"]},2    ${Me.Song[2]},]} 
  SongTimer2=1,800,035,000,255,000, ${If[${Me.Song[2].Name.NotEqual["NULL"]},2    ${Me.Song[2]},]}  ${If[${Me.Song[2].Duration.TimeHMS.NotEqual["NULL"]},[${Me.Song[2].Duration.TimeHMS}],]} 
     Mysong3=1,800,050,255,255,255, ${If[${Me.Song[3].Name.NotEqual["NULL"]},3    ${Me.Song[3]},]} 
  SongTimer3=1,800,050,000,255,000, ${If[${Me.Song[3].Name.NotEqual["NULL"]},3    ${Me.Song[3]},]}  ${If[${Me.Song[3].Duration.TimeHMS.NotEqual["NULL"]},[${Me.Song[3].Duration.TimeHMS}],]} 
     Mysong4=1,800,065,255,255,255, ${If[${Me.Song[4].Name.NotEqual["NULL"]},4    ${Me.Song[4]},]} 
  songTimer4=1,800,065,000,255,000, ${If[${Me.Song[4].Name.NotEqual["NULL"]},4    ${Me.Song[4]},]}  ${If[${Me.Song[4].Duration.TimeHMS.NotEqual["NULL"]},[${Me.Song[4].Duration.TimeHMS}],]} 
     Mysong5=1,800,080,255,255,255, ${If[${Me.Song[5].Name.NotEqual["NULL"]},5    ${Me.Song[5]},]} 
  songTimer5=1,800,080,000,255,000, ${If[${Me.Song[5].Name.NotEqual["NULL"]},5    ${Me.Song[5]},]}  ${If[${Me.Song[5].Duration.TimeHMS.NotEqual["NULL"]},[${Me.Song[5].Duration.TimeHMS}],]} 
     Mysong6=1,800,095,255,255,255, ${If[${Me.Song[6].Name.NotEqual["NULL"]},6    ${Me.Song[6]},]} 
  songTimer6=1,800,095,000,255,000, ${If[${Me.Song[6].Name.NotEqual["NULL"]},6    ${Me.Song[6]},]}  ${If[${Me.Song[6].Duration.TimeHMS.NotEqual["NULL"]},[${Me.Song[6].Duration.TimeHMS}],]}

I get a NULL when the Target does not have a Target

Code: Select all

${If[${Target.ID},${Me.TargetOfTarget.PctHPs}%,]}

Any help on syntax is appreciated.

Try this:

Code: Select all

   TargetoftargetInfo=1,620,110,255,234,8,Target of target Information:
        Hott=1,620,125,255,255,255,${If[${Target.ID},${If[${Me.TargetOfTarget.CleanName.NotEqual["NULL"]},${Me.TargetOfTarget.CleanName},],]}
       Hott2=1,620,140,255,255,255,${If[${Target.ID},${If[${Me.TargetOfTarget.NotEqual["NULL"]},${Me.TargetOfTarget},],]}

Theres something wrong in your code I think, didnt get it to work, so i rewrote it the way I though is ok. Feedback if its ineffecient to do it this way. It works, I tested it.

Code: Select all

   TargetoftargetInfo=1,620,110,255,234,8,Target of target Information: 
        Hott=1,620,125,255,255,255,${If[${Me.TargetOfTarget.CleanName.NotEqual["NULL"]},${Me.TargetOfTarget.CleanName},]} 
       Hott2=1,620,140,255,255,255,${If[${Me.TargetOfTarget.CleanName.NotEqual["NULL"]},${Me.TargetOfTarget},]}
            HottGuage=1,620,155,255,0,0,${String[====================].Left[${Int[${Math.Calc[${Int[${Me.TargetOfTarget.PctHPs}]}*.2]}]}]} 
        HottNormGuage=1,620,155,255,255,255,${If[${Me.TargetOfTarget.CleanName.NotEqual["NULL"]},====================  ${Me.TargetOfTarget.PctHPs}%,]}

Just an FYI, using a lot of IF statements in your HUD will affect your framerate in EQ. Try making a HUD with 20 different IF statements, check your framerate, and then take them all out and just show the NULL where applicable and you'll see. The only time I didn't take a framerate hit was if I was staring at a wall. I'd rather live with seeing NULL than take that hit myself.

Of course, Cr4zyb4rd has come up with a plugin to make the hud refresh a lot less often in order to get around this, but I still try to avoid using IFs and just living with seeing NULL if I don't happen to be running a macro at this very moment, or if my target doesn't have a target.

Well, if you look at the UI by Drumstix42, you'll notice there is a lot of ifs. Most of it cannot be done with it. If you don't have a great system, you don't have to run it all. Easy as that. And if the plugin that was created to help FPS is useful, then use it.

It was moved to VIP because the discussion was leaning towards some MQ2 internals that might have been just a bit on the "hacker-ish" side.

Then the discussion died utterly.

Then I posted a new version with further speedups, in hopes it would get some testing, but it doesn't seem to be getting much.

Then I read this thread, and started writing this stupid response to it.

Then I thought about it and decided I might as well repost it in the normal forums.

Then I remembered what a lazy bastard I am...I'll probably do it later today.

The HUD speedup code does work, it helps a LOT in terms of fps.

the most important of crazy's plugin is the background check

i'm in <3 with that since i often 2box and my hud has tons of little features and shit
