HOWTO: Use the old radar, or, OMGWTFBBQ NO BACKGROUND PLS KTHX!!!

Ok, there have been a few complaints about the new look of the radar window. If you are so lost in the stone age, and partial transparency just seems to piss you off, do this in your console:

ui -reload extensions/isxeq2radar

If you are more advanced and can find your way around windows explorer, feel free to copy the isxeq2radar.xml from your extensions/ folder into your interface folder, and rename it something like "radar.xml". This would then simplify your command to:

ui -reload radar

Problem solved! Donations can be left at the door. Thank you for playing!

UPDATE: If the reason for your disliking the new skin was due to:

1) OMG TEH TEXT TOO SMALLZ! (font size issue)

or

2) OMG TEH SCROLL! (unable to use scrollwheel in eq2 through the window)

Please update to the latest InnerSpace and try your luck with the skinned radar again!

Thanks for posting the work around on the transparancy thing. I play with radar overlaying my entire screen, and while the blue tinge wasn't a show stopper, it was annoying enough to me that I actually just went back to the radar with out any configuration windows until I could figure out how to make it go away ;-).

Thank you. Is there a way to make it remember the radar settings using this method, though? The settings that I make seem to be being stored in isxeq2radarsettings.xml, but they are not reloaded when I reopen the radar.
