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".

Sorry for the late response, I've not received any notification of the post :(
See RpLabel (http://war.curse.com/downloads/war-addons/details/rplabel.aspx) for the Renown Label ;)

Posted a new version for both XpLabel and RpLabel: should fix the problem somebody had about addon not working. I had to defer addon initialization, since it was sometimes loaded before default interface. :(

Would it be possible to add the % to it as well... 62% or 75% etc.. thanks

sorry, but this addon does not manage the content of the label: it just shows the default label, the same that you see when you hover the default xp bar...

ok, with help from a friend who had the same problem, probably I found out what's happening.... seems like my addon is loaded before the XpBar window is created, so it fails initializing: I have to delay initialization... will post a fix asap (till tomorrow evening I'm busy, unfortunately... I'll try... :( )

Agree with Kynn, doesn't function.

That's odd... It works fine on my pc :/
It exactly the same as RpLabel, except for the function names it overrides... (that is the function that hides the label)

Do you want to help me debugging it? :)
Open in notepad, or similar, the file XpLabel.lua and replace the function XpLabel.OnInizialize() with the one below:
```
function XpLabel.OnInitialize()
	origOnMouseOverEnd = XpBarWindow.MouseoverEndXPBar
	
	XpBarWindow.MouseoverEndXPBar = function() ChatWindow.Print(L"XpLabel: XpBarWindow.MouseoverEndXPBar was removed") end
	WindowSetShowing( "XpBarWindowText", true )
	ChatWindow.Print(L"XpLabel successfully initialized")
end
```
It will print a message when it is loaded, and then a message every time your mouse exits the XpBarWindow.

Also use the command
```
/script WindowUtils.ToggleShowing("DebugWindow")
```
to see if there is some error related to XpLabel in the debug console, please :)

Your RPLabel works fine for me, but this XPLabel only shows when I hover my mouse over the bar.

Just fixed the way it forces label always visible: can't be lighter, now =)

mmm... it seems we lost threaded comments with the last version of curse.com :(

so I'll re-answer ^^
I posted a workaround for Windburn issue, since my addon was intended to be extremely simple and just force visible the default label (the one you see when mouse over the xp bar).
Default label is positioned 2 pixels down from the top of the bar, with the following command you can regain those 2px :)
```
/script WindowClearAnchors("XpBarWindowText"); WindowAddAnchor("XpBarWindowText", "top", "XpBarWindow", "top", 0, 0);
```

Ahhh, sorry I didn't really notice that this was the original behaviour with the two bars. Thanks for the work around, Elder :)

I understand your problem, but....
Actually the text is not from this addon: it's just the already existent label that you see when you move your mouse over the xp bar... I simply force it to be always visible... ^^
Changing its position or behaviour it's out of this addon objective: I wanted to keep it extremely trivial :-/

However, you can use a command like the following (save it to a macro: you may need it later ^^)
/script WindowClearAnchors("XpBarWindowText"); WindowAddAnchor("XpBarWindowText", "top", "XpBarWindow", "top", 0, 0)

By default the label is positioned 2 pixels down from the center-top of the xpbar: with this command you regain those 2 pixels ^^

I have my renown bar just under my xp bar, and the text from this addon appears underneath that bar. Is it possible to make it show above other items, so that the text isn't cut off if something else is too near?

Other than that, this addon does exactly what it says, and it's great :) Thanks!
