This is a very small and very simple addon to make it easier and quicker to pick different performance settings when for example approaching a heavily sieged fortress or keep.
To toggle the performance either use the slash command /perf# (with LibSlash installed) or /script perf#() (without LibSlash or for use in Macros). Replace # with one of the letters/numbers below. Also note, there is no space character between "perf" and the additional letter/number! LibSlash is not required to use this addon.
L: Activate the low quality/high performance profile.
M: Activate the medium quality/medium performance profile.
H: Activate the high quality/low performance profile.
C: Toggle between both custom profiles (activating either first or second profile)
1: Activate the first custom profile.
2: Activate the second custom profile.
Example
To activate the high quality profile, type /perfH or /script perfH()
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".
