Re: How do i copy my old ui layout from before EXE removal.
CCP's Launcher puts the settings in your user appdata folder. Default: C:\Users\<your username>\AppData\Local\CCP\EVE\c_eve_sharedcache_tq_tranquility\settings
(If you installed Eve somewhere other than C, that drive letter will start the _eve_sharedcache_tq_tranquility folder name)
This folder has all the settings from all of your accounts and characters.
ISBoxer puts your settings next to the Eve Launcher settings - C:\Users\<your username>\AppData\Local\CCP\EVE\c_eve_sharedcache_tq_tranquility\settings-<ISBoxer-character-name>
If you like the settings when you start the game from CCP's launcher, copy all the files from the "settings" folder to every "settings-<ISBoxer-character-name>" folder.
If only one character's in-game windows are set up the way you want, you will need to figure out which file is used for that character, and then copy it for the other characters. Unfortunately, this is annoying because the settings files are named with an ID number instead of anything human readable. There is one file for each account (core_user_#######.dat), and one file for each character (core_char_#########.dat). (You can ignore the core_char__.dat and core_user__.dat files - those appear to be defaults)
To make all your characters have the same in-game UI layout:
1) Launch the game and load the character with the correct settings.
2) Change something in the in-game UI (Like move a neocom button). Then change it back.
3) Exit the game.
4) Look in the settings folder for the core_user and core_char files with the latest timestamp. These are the ones with the settings you want.
5) Make copies of the latest core_user_########.dat and core_char_#######.dat file, and rename the copies to match the other core_user_#####.dat and core_char######.dat files.
Exampe: core_char_1234.dat has the correct settings. core_char_5678.dat has incorrect settings. Delete core_char_5678.dat. Copy core_char_1234.dat, and rename the copy to core_char_5678.dat. Make sure you do something to keep track of the number in the filename of the file you are replacing.
6) Load up the characters using CCP's launcher to make sure the UI is set up the way you want.
7) If it is, you can copy the settings folder into every settings-<ISBoxer name> folder.
