=========
NOTE FOR 1.3:
WAR 1.3 has removed respawn timers during no-res fights and the default time to release has increased from 4 minutes 45 seconds to 10 minutes.
As such I will not be updating this mod unless timers are added to no-res fights.
=========
A simple window that keeps track of party members 'time-until-forced-respawn' when they die.
This is designed for those no-res dungeon fights where healers need to keep track of who is running out of time for a res. Instead of having to ask everyone what their timers are, or trying to keep track of it yourself during the fight, now you can just look at the DeathClock window to get the situation in a glance.
This is automatically disabled in scenarios and warbands since they are largely irrelevant in those situations. If enough people wish it, I will look at adding these in.
NOTE: If you are having issues with the icon resetting position in 1.2.1, make sure you delete your settings folders (War\user\...) for both AllCharacters and all individual characters while not in the game.

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".
