Event Summary

The event summary is a menu that was visible in "old eso" (Pre-Odyssey). At some point they decided to remove this feature from the game but not before updating all the icons and UI.

The location of the Event Summary menu button was on the minimap in the upper right corner just below the mail icon.

Adding The UI Button Back

To add the icon back you should edit interfaces\minimap.xml within interfaces.pck to include the following button.

You should change the height of the entire minimap node to 185 otherwise the button will only be half clickable.

    <STILLIMAGEBUTTON Name="Btn_Daily" x="152" y="162" Width="28" Height="28" Command="List_Activities">
        <Hint String="Events" />
        <Text FontName="方正细黑一简体" FontSize="12" />
        <Resource>
            <FrameUpImage FileName="button\radar_daily.tga" />
            <FrameDownImage FileName="button\radar_dailydown.tga" />
        </Resource>
    </STILLIMAGEBUTTON>

Editing The Event Summary

The event summary menu pulls its data from surfaces\ingame\taskdaily.txt within surfaces.pck.

The file seems to be space delimited (5), each event on a new line and has the following columns in this order.

Day of Week | Time | Name | Level | Remarks | Line | Task ID | NPCid | Reward Item ID | Description

Example event.

"1,2,3,4,5,6,7"     "00:00-24:00"     "Test"     "1-105"     "日常"     "6-15线"     "4035"     "0"     "24072,24020,14977,7139"     "This is a test event."
