An addon which lets you play noughts and crosses against yourself. Or against a naive computer opponent. Or watch two naive computer players play against eachother. How exciting!
Note: This addon requires LibSlash. You can download LibSlash from the WAR section of Curse: http://war.curse.com/downloads/detail.../13510/
Written mainly for my own purposes in learning WAR UI coding, and becoming familiar with lua. I can already see (after the fact) some silly, silly things in the code. Ah well.
To play, just click on the grid where you want to place your X or O. The window can be moved by dragging on the title bar.
The following slash commands are available:
- /txo newgame (resets the board, starting a new game)
- /txo hide (hides the window)
- /txo show (shows the window)
- /txo cpu x (toggles CPU on/off for crosses)
- /txo cpu o (toggles CPU on/off for noughts)
- /txo cpudelay <seconds> (makes the cpu wait at least <seconds> before making a move)
At present there are no buttons to toggle cpu player state, so you will need to use the slash commands.

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".
