Infinity is my little pet project to create a more simple yet effective unitframe addon. Instead of a complex ingame config I would like to keep everything lua based. This includes positions and sizing, I find that I am much better at placing things where I want them when I can give an exact position. The aura system is something I thought would be useful, where buffs are shown above the unitframe, and debuffs are shown below, making it much easier to see what general kind of effect you have on.
Layout
The PLAYER | TARGET | FRIENDLY frames can be positioned by opening `config.lua` however none of the other settings will do anything at the moment.
WIP
- Auras:
- Filtering: Only show player casted abilities on all types of targets
- Buffs: Displayed above the unitframe
- Debuffs: Displayed below the unitframe
TODO
- Class Mechanic Bars [config setting]
- Party
- Friendly HUD [config setting]
- Hostile HUD [config setting]
- Style System
- I want to have a complex style system where mutliple style sub-addons can be created by individual users and they can register with the base addon.
BUGS
- Hiding: After a reloadui if you had a target sometimes the frame will remain blank without any information until a new target is acquired.
- There appears to be an issue with `hostile objects` they may not show up or may show as 0% (doors etc)
0.2.1 is a bad push sorry mates.
New in 0.3
- Initial work on a configuration file [config.lua]
- You can now place the player, friend, and target frames from this file.
- None of the other settings actually function
Fixes
- Class coloring should now work properly upon login.
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".
