NO LONGER MAINTAINED:
Unfortunatly I can no longer afford to keep my WAR account so won't be able
to maintain this mod, if anyone would like to take over, let me know.
Zone Defender (Based on BG Defender) gives you a little movable window that automagically hides when your not in a scenario with buttons to announce the number of incoming enemies at the base you're defending within Scenarios and World RvR.
Note: Requires LIBSLASH (http://war.curse.com/downloads/war-addons/details/libslash.aspx)
Usage:
ZoneDefender is meant to help defenders stay vocal and announce the enemy's attacks to your team mates.
When your close to a flag or other battle ground objective click a number to announce that number of enemy's approaching your location. Click Safe to let you team mates know that everything is OK or press Help to let them know you need help.
/zdshow (shows the ZoneDefender window)
/zdhide (hides the ZoneDefender window)
/zdlock (locks the position of the ZoneDefender window)
/zdunlock (locks the position of the ZoneDefender window)
CHANGE LOG FOR VERSION 0.9
Auto Show/Hide: ZoneDefender will automagically show itself when your in a scenario and hide when your not.
If you want to use ZoneDefender for World RvR then you can still use /zdshow and /zdhide
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 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

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".
