3. Extract files from CustomUI.1.0.mac.zip to drive_c/moi

---

And on the mac to get to the drive_c/moi directory, right-click on the Moi app icon and choose "Show package contents" on the menu that comes up. Then inside of there you will be able to find drive_c/moi.

I am find where I need to go c/moi its do I replace current contents add to or what? Sorry

Hi mike,

> do I replace current contents add to or what? Sorry

You need to add the contents of the zip there. There will be one file that will be overwritten, then rest are added files.

So inside the zip are 3 directories: "objects", "snapshots", and "ui".

The "objects" and "snapshots" directories will be new - MoI does not already have any directories there of those names, so just move both of those there under drive_c/moi so that you now have directories drive_c/moi/objects and drive_c/moi/snapshots.

MoI already has a /ui folder, and you want to merge the contents of this new one onto the existing ui folder, not just completely replace the entire ui folder.

There will be one file /ui/CommandBar.htm that should get overwritten by what is in the .zip - the other things in the .zip should just be added to the ui folder.

Hope that helps!

Thanks Michael. Isn't it amazing how much we take installers for granted!

I believe I have followed the instructions properly but I don't see the new interface add-on.

Hi Mike,

> I believe I have followed the instructions properly but I don't see the new interface add-on.

It should show up as some new things on the bottom toolbar. Make sure that one particular file "CommandBar.htm" has been replaced by the one in the .zip file. If you see no difference in the bottom toolbar it probably means that file has not been updated.

I have placed the new CommandBar.htm (Aug 15,2013) 4KB into the Moi/ui folder. Still nothing.
Sorry for all this screwing around.

---

Hi Mike,

check please, is Moi/ui/customui folder exists?

---

customui folder (whole with contents) exists inside ui folder along with CommandBar.htm

Hi Mike, are you possibly using the older v2.52 version of MoI rather than the current v3 beta?

If so try getting the current v3 beta from here: http://moi3d.com/beta.htm - probably this stuff needs things that are only present in the v3 beta's infrastructure and are not in the older version.

---

Everything is correct. It should work.
Check the CommandBar.htm. Is there "<script type="text/javascript" src="customui/CustomInit.js">" line?
Try to change it to

<script type="text/javascript" src="moi://ui/customui/CustomInit.js" />

---

I opened CommandBar.htm in Text Wrangler and I don't see the line you are referring to. What line?

---

Just saw the message about script error.
Yes, the script works with v3.0 only. Mike, you need to upgrade your software.

---

Still no go here.

Hi Mike,

> Still no go here.

Are you still getting that script error or not any script error anymore?

If you could not find the lines that Max was referring to above inside your CommandBar.htm then it means you somehow did not get that one file updated - it's the one file that needs to be overwritten...

Sorry I don't get that error message with the beta!

Hi Mike,

> I downloaded from this portion of the early thread. Was this were I need to be when I downloaded it?

I think Max said to get the one from the 1st message in this thread, which is here:
http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=6507.1

I just tested this over here on my Mac and it seems to be working ok for me.

What I did was right-clicked on the v3 beta's app icon and picked "Show package contents". Then inside there go to drive_c/moi

Then download the mac version .zip file that's an attachment on that first message.

Safari automatically unzips the file, go inside the unzipped directory and drag/drop both the "objects" and "snapshots" directories into drive_c/moi so you now have drive_c/moi/objects and drive_c/moi/snapshots.

Then go down inside of drive_c/moi/ui and also go into the /ui subfolder inside the downloaded one too. Grab all of that stuff tha's down inside of /ui and drag/drop it over into drive_c/moi/ui, if you have placed it in the correct spot Finder will warn you that there is one file that is a duplicate name (that's CommandBar.htm) and whether you want to keep both or replace it - choose replace here. After doing these steps then I was able to see the changes in MoI's bottom command bar.

Make sure you do not have MoI running while doing all that stuff.

Hope this helps!

- Michael
