Abstract
Zealot specific add-on to help maximize use of the Scourged Warping tactic.
Provides scalable buttons that pop-up at at a configurable place on screen whenever the Scourged Warping buff is active or you're affected by a curable debuff.
Details
ScourgeAid will only do anything if you are in fact playing a zealot; I might add some of the cureable functionality for other classes down the line, but that's not really what this addon is about; there are others out there that do a better job of that already!
If you're a zealot, and you've invested in the Scourged Warping tactic (ways up the Path of Witchcraft mastery or as a core tactic at level 31 - thanks Wizblade), you'll know what a boon to your damage output it can be; but only if you know when the buff is active. Warhammer's default buff icon is tiny and hard to see, that's where ScourgeAid comes in.
Whenever the Scourged Warping buff is active, ScourgeAid will popup a Scourge spell icon that you can use to cast Scourge. You can customise the size and position of the ScourgeAid popups by going to Warhammer's Customize UI option, finding the window called 'Scourge Aid' and moving/resizing it however you want. Should you lose the window as a result of playing at a lower resolution or the like, issuing the
/sa reset command will reset it to being in the center of the screen.
But wait, that's not all. As I'm one lazy zealot with poor sight, I also included a second popup that will (assuming you're high enough level to have the hex/curse curing ability called 'Glimpse of Chaos') appear whenever you are cursed or hexed. Pressing the popup button will cast the cure on you.

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".
