About Main Assist

Initial

Allows solo setting your own personal Main Assist, but also allows group leaders to sync the Main Assist with the whole group (if enabled).

Has a UI, sticky targeting aka auto assisting, slash commands, allows Main and Secondary Assists, has group notification when the Main and Secondary Assist changes targets.
Notification however depends on the MA/SA having this mod installed as well.

Notes about the UI:

- A small skull is attached to the minimap for toggling the UI.
- Where the MA and SA's name displays is also a button. Left-clicking on the button will assist the person listed. Right-clicking will bring up a context menu of people you can change the MA or SA to (group members and current target only will show up)
- The plus button's allow you to type in the name of the person you want to set to MA or SA.
- The group check box enables all group functionality.
- The sticky check box enables auto updating your target to the Main Assist's.
- UI window is lockable.

For Slash Commands: /ma help

Bind key to Assist Main:

/script MainAssist.Command("")
or
/script MainAssist.Command("ma")

Bind key to Assist Secondary:

/script MainAssist.Command("sa")

Requires Libslash.

Future:
Ability to resize UI and change opacity.
Optional floating icons above Main/Second Target and group members (possibly a unique one for the assists).

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".

No more updates?

I would really like to see the target of the people I assist right next to the main assist window. And it would be great to have more than 2 people to assist. And also to see the targets of all of them :-) Stephen

What I meant by it not working in warband came out wrong. The sticky is the only thing that doesn't work in warband and it works as long as the person you set as main assist is in your group and has the addon installed. Sticky only works for the person set as main assist I believe. To assist the second assist just use the macro or click their name in the box also. Personally I think the sticky is nice for people not good about hitting a assist key seeing how you can just click their name and assist them. If your haveing problems with the addon it is mostly user error if not just post here or pm Xcamr and I am sure he will fix the problem. :P Keep up the good work Xcamr.

Guys trying to figure out this mod try using /ma help for a list of commands. Also everyone in the group has to have the mod installed for the sticky to work so works great for premade groups. It doesn't work for warbands as far as I know unless you want to set it and just click their name in the box and it will assist. So you can make a macro and take up the slots on your spellbar or just click thier name. Hope this helps.

Is there anyway to make the skull icon work with ZMiniMap?

Reply Delete Ban User Report Permalink
Xcamr said

I'm not familiar with ZMiniMap, in what way do you want the skull icon to work with ZMiniMap? Display the icon on the Mini map it displays in place of the original? Shouldn't be hard.

aye display the icon on the minimap it displays in place of the original would be cool :)
ZMiniMap here: http://war.curse.com/downloads/war-addons/details/zmm.aspx

As long as you're in a party, then it should work. If you experience issues please create a ticket and I'll get any problems sorted out soon.

This would be better if it worked through a macro button or something else, maybe a small 1 & 2 buttons on the screen that are movable. Don't want to have that big text box around the whole time. Just small buttons would be nice.

I agree. Macro Button is needed like AssistMain() AssistSec()
