Alright, this is my first addon EVER to be publically released.
Note: This addon REQUIRES you to have LibSlash installed! You can download LibSlash from the WAR section of Curse: http://war.curse.com/downloads/details/13510/
ActionBarCoolDown Mod (ABCD Mod)
The purpose of this mod is to add customizability to the end-user of the default actionbar cooldown meter.
Currently the features are:
- Turn on/off the white fading graphic
- Turn on/off the 'flash'ing when cooldown ends
- Turn on/off the text-display that says how much time is left
- Change the font of the text-display (to bigger!)
In the future I hope to add more features ofcourse and I will try to keep working on improving it further!
Currently the settings are set using commands, type /abcd to see availible settings.
/abcd.color (0-3) Color of the cooldown-time text. 0=yellow,1=red,2=green,3=teal
/abcd.fade (on/off) Graphical fading of actionbutton-background On/Off
/abcd.flash (on/off) Graphical 'flash' when cooldown is out On/Off
/abcd.font (0-2) 0 is default, 1 is big, 2 is huge
/abcd.glow (on/off) Graphical glowing around the action-button when active On/Off
/abcd.sec (on/off) Wheter to have the 's' after number of seconds on button On/Off
/abcd.text (on/off) Display text showing how much cooldown-time is left On/Off
Enjoy.
v1.3 (0922 2008)

+ Added choice of text-color
Installation Guide
- Exit "Warhammer Online" completely
- Download the mod you want to install
- Make a folder on your desktop called "My Mods"
- Save the .zip/.rar files to this folder.
- If, when you try to download the file, it automatically "opens" it... you need to RIGHT click on the link and "save as..." or "Save Target As".
- Extract the file - commonly known as 'unzipping'
Do this ONE FILE AT A TIME!
- Windows
- Windows XP has a built in ZIP extractor. Double click on the file to open it, inside should be the file or folders needed. Copy these outside to the "My Mods" folder.
- WinRAR: Right click the file, select "Extract Here"
- WinZip: You MUST make sure the option to "Use Folder Names" is CHECKED or it will just extract the files and not make the proper folders how the Authors designed
- Verify your WAR Installation Path
That is where you are running WAR from and THAT is where you need to install your mods.
- Move to the Addon folder
- Open your Warhammer Online folder. (default is C:\Program Files\Warhammer Online\)
- Go into the "Interface" folder.
- Go into the "AddOns" folder.
- In a new window, open the "My Mods" folder.
- The "My Mods" folder should have the "Addonname" folder in it.
- Move the "Addonname" folder into the "AddOns" folder
- Start Warhammer Online
Translations
When you download a mod, please be sure that the mod is compatible with your translation of WAR. Some mods only work on the US versions, while some only work on some of the various European versions. These variations are called "Localizations".
