First things first. A lot of the code was borrowed from the AlertFilter mod (http://war.curse.com/downloads/war-addons/details/alertfilter.aspx)
Now this mod will read alerts and look for specific patterns to grab a target name. For example lets say you were in Tor Anroc and you wanted a macro to target the person with the bauble. This allows that.
Keep in mind that this is my first addon and the mod is quite new, it works but bear with me as I add in features.
This also requires LibSlash 1.8+
Usage:
The slash commands are either /at or /alerttarget both work the same
/at add [name] [pattern] - grabs the target (at_tar) from the pattern
Example: /at add bauble at_tar of destruction has taken the
/at del [id] - removes a pattern
/at list - lists currently active alert patterns
/at target [name] - targets the target for that variable
For the macro make one that does `/script TargetAlertTarget(name)` where name is the name of the pattern
Enjoy!
Brand new thus no changes
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

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".
