WaaaghBar plugin to show a numerical representation of victory points.
This requires WaaaghBar.
I have made a stand alone version of this here.
The code to extract the numbers comes from neuf from here.
Currently, 100 points means you flip the zone.
The core numbers from neuf's method are the percentages of the bar for each realm. I have crudely determined that a realm needs 2/3 of the bar to flip the zone. I did this through examining screenshots along with the values at those times. So I've adjusted the percentages so that 100 points on my plugin means you flip the zone.
I have yet to test this during an actual flipping of a zone, but hopefully someone can give me some feedback.
Please note that VPs do not immediately update. If you take a BFO or Keep and don't see the points change, it's not because of my plugin, it's because they haven't updated on your bar yet. They usually do within a few minutes.
I hope you enjoy the plugin, and it makes it easier to tell if you're actually earning VPs.

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".
