This mod doesn't seem to make a difference, I and others still get CTDs unfortunately. Still feel free to try it, and if you should encounter a reduction in CTDs, please let me know
Wipes the Combat Log every 5 minutes, in the hope of reducing CTDs, without breaking addons that read information out of the combat log.
Please note: This is currently still untested. It may not work. It may even make things worse. It may break other addons. It may [insert some bad thing]...
But then, it just may do the trick.
If you notice and reduction in CTD with this addon, please let me know.
If you don't notice any, please let me know.
If you notice incompatabilities with addons, then ... oh well you get the picture.
Changing Frequency of wipes
Go to the Folder <Warhammer Directory>\Interface\AddOns\CombatLogClear and edit the file CombatLogCleaner.lua. In the 7th line you'll find "FREQUENCY = 300" change the 300 to any number of seconds you like. Maybe that helps.
Good luck
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".
