Target Window Mod

dc_roenfanz · #1 04-01-2005, 09:12 AM

OK. I am officially asking/requesting help in this thread, cuz I haven't figured the durned thing out mahself.

Laffs mentioned in my thread inside XML help that it might be possible to change the target indicator (for the detailed version) so that it shows up on the left or right of the target name, instead of above or below. I am fine with horizontal shift, but vertical shift is a NO-NO. Anyway, would appreciate it if someone could figure it out for me. Thanks.

Sure sure. Do it as soon as I figure out how. Gotta be a sticky or something that I hafta read in order to learn. Blargs! Too much learning!

Edit: Duh! It's just an attachment!. How silly of me. You will find my target and implied target windows attached. Bonjour!

Your quality of service is through the roof laffs, but there are those of us (/raisehand) who would like to know what magic you're working. Would you mind explaining how you're going to do this? I've been wrestling with the tier indicator for weeks now (even asked in game and the only response I got was "its complicated.")

Thanks!

Lol thank you....

Well heres the plan !
(I am sure I posted this somplace else, but nvm here go's)

Have you noticed that the Target name and the Tier indicator just seem to switch places when you have a down arrow mob targeted..

So plan is to horizontal {Tier Indicator} / {Target Name}

when its a down arrow con they (should) just switch places,

Never realy thought about it, Have you tried this already likes, If so is this the case?

Two things.

1. I was in the process of editing my previous post with BOTH attachments with the two of you made the comment. So they are there.

2. I just noticed, in the banner ad at the top of the page, the Overlords bad eye rolls around in his head righ after the first "zoom" to his face. Quite disgusting, but totally cool. The fact that it actually makes my stomach lurch when I see it is most satisfying because of the (digital) reality of it.

Heh.

Oh. I ganked the background from Zonk's Fetish Turbo XP Bar, so if it shows up all funky (or not at all) don't worry, it works here at home.

Oks lol, so I was wrong they dont switch positions like they seem to, the tier indicator moves itself to where the target name is and pushes target name up or down acordingly, and I have been through all the settings to try and stop this but it wont hehe, it dont matter where the hell you put the tier ind it still jumps in and kicks the target name outta the way to make room lol...

(20 mins later, Didnt post this as I had a new idea)

Well I have failed 50% (see screenshot below,yes its all out of line,but was good enough for testing) I have managed to get teir to the left BUT you loose the con color info

, And thats no good........

As a thought about "pushing" data any of you guys in here think it could be possible to do that to get the con color's back?, If so how? (I know very little about pushing data in here, so like I say just a thought)

*EDIT*
As a note to this I can "clean up" the Target window to shift and show the teir indicator and target name better, but on a vertical axis

, If that will help any, Coz if the push data thing is a no go then I dont see anyother way to do this, Sorry

Laffs. You. Are. A. (cool) GOD
Seeing that made me so ecstatic (sp) I almost cried. ROFL. Anyway, don't worry about positioning THAT part any more. I can move the level to the left outside the HP bar, which would work cool, cuz thats where I put my tier indicators (for v1). As for the con color, maybe it can be forced into the level indicator? Just a thought.

Thanks for the updates!!!!

The Tier Indicator is fine where it is, along with the target name, although it *could* be to the left a bit more. I had just the numerical level of the target (because thats how sunthas had it) right where the TI is now, but I also noticed that there is a "level 15" to the right of the target, where there never was before (it said heroic, epic, etc) AAAAND, My eyes may be fooling me, but it *looks* like the "Level 15" is green. Were you by chance targeting a green-con? Just a guess. It might also be grey, which if you were targeting a grey-con. As long as SOMETHING reads the target con level, I dont care if the name does. Does the KoS outline still work? because that IS kinda important.

You can leave it like it is for now. If there is a way to fix the color that we find about later, great. If not, no big deal. I almost always look at the target anyway,and their name still shows con, correct?

74ff5 is 733+ (Ok, so I cant write leet well. guess im not leet enuff)

Lmao...

Well I did find a way to get the teir indicator to show the con color by using a dummy "target page" but when the target has no up or down arrows it will show up as gray as there is no teir indicator to show otherwise

So what you would have is,

Up arrow con , you have the color on the teir
down arrow con, you have color on the teir
No arrow con's green, white, yellow whatever the name will always be gray.

I think the best way is for me to make that window fit it in on the vert plane, that way you will always know what the con is.... but it will shift up and down but at least you can see it

EDIT

Btw .. the mob in the screenshot was RED ^^ lol

EDIT 2

Lol i been working with V0
