This is the Addon for the guild Revolution, http://revolutionwar.guildlaunch.com
Come join us!
This addon requires LibSlash from Aiiane, http://war.curse.com/downloads/details/13510/
Download that and worship her.
Instructions:
Basic Faq: You set a person as a MA for Kill or Heal. If that person sends out a specific command you can then hit a button to target that person or have the addon auto-target that person. Also if you aren't a MA you can still call out people to be healed/killed.
Commands: (I'm open to changing any of these)
/revk NAME = Set Kill Caller
- This sets your current MA for kills. This is saved between sessions.
- Usage = /revk Moron
/revh NAME = Set Heal Caller:
-Ditto for Heals.
/revksound 1/0 = Set Kill Sounds on/off
-Sets weither you get a sound played when a kill from the MA is annouced
-Usage: /revksound 1
/revhsound 1/0 = Set Heal Sounds on/off
-Ditto for heals
/revkill = Target Called Kill
-Targets the last called kill. It will target dead people. If that target is not in range it will keep your current target. Later I will show how to make a macro button for this.
- Usage: /revkill
/revheal = Target Called Heal
-Ditto on heal target
/callkill = Call out Current target as Kill
-This is mostly for MA. This calls out their currently targetted bad guy to the channel set in options. You can call out dead people or people out of your range. (Later I will show how to make a macro for this).
-Usage: /callkill
/callheal = Call out Current target as Heal
-Ditto for heal calling
/revchan war/sp = Set Calling channel as War or Scenario
-Sets which channel the MA will broadcast over. Note: You can listen on any channel for the broadcast, so only MA needs to use this.
-Usage: /revchan war
/revauto 1/0 = Set or Toggle auto-targetting
-Use this to toggle auto-targetting of Kills/Heals. If you do not have a 1/0 after the command it will just toggle.
-Usage: /revauto 1
/revtimer Number = Set the timer til the annoucments disappear
-Sets how long the Kill/Heal windows stay on your screen. It goes off of frame rate, so 30=1sec, or 300 =10sec.
-Usage: /revtimer 250
/revtest = Test annoucment for testing of UI Placement
-Tests the Kill/Heal windows for time and placement.
-Usage: /revtest
Macros
To make a War Macro:
Go to main menu (ESC).
Click on Macros.
Click on one of the emptry at the top.
Type in Name and click on picture to set a picture.
In the Macro Text, put in below for each command:
Calling out a heal : /script RevKTH.CallHeal()
Calling out a kill : /script RevKTH.CallKill()
Targeting the Heal : /script RevKTH.TargetHeal()
Targeting the Kill : /script RevKTH.TargetKill()
Then you can drag the icon down to your bars.
(If you want a different commands to be macroed, let me know).
UI
There are two windows with text that appear when a Kill/Heal is called.
You can see them by doing the command /revtest.
You can move/stretch these on your own. To do that:
1. Hit U to get to the UI editor.
2. Click on Layout Editor.
3. Click on Start Editing
Now, look for RevKTH Kill Window and RevKTH Heal Window and move them around!
Click and drag on the corners to resize them!
Normal Usage:
This is what a normal day using the addon will go like.
Open RvR: Once you have your warband set. Someone is designated as the MA, Let's say, it is I, Moron.
Moron does this : /revchannel war
Everyone else: /revk Moron
Now, throughout the battle, I will be doing /callkill annoucing to all of you who to kill, at that point you do /revkill or hit your macro, or do nothing if you have auto-targetting enabled.
. In a scenario, the only difference is Moron would do : /revchannel sc
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".
