[Vadi] bigger tower health bars

[Vadi]

Based on numerous (http://forums.heroesofnewerth.com/showthread.php?t=9180&highlight=bigger+tower) tester (http://forums.heroesofnewerth.com/showthread.php?t=8556&highlight=bigger+tower) feedback (http://forums.heroesofnewerth.com/showthread.php?p=102118&highlight=bigger+tower#post102118) that (http://forums.heroesofnewerth.com/showthread.php?t=6358&highlight=bigger+tower) bigger (http://forums.heroesofnewerth.com/showthread.php?t=7055&highlight=bigger+tower) tower (http://forums.heroesofnewerth.com/showthread.php?t=10835&highlight=bigger+tower) health (http://forums.heroesofnewerth.com/showthread.php?t=2922&highlight=bigger+tower) bars are needed, this is a mod to see how much of an improvement to the game would it be should this be done.

Whats this mod about
Makes the tower health bar bigger when you hover your mouse over it.

Note that I can't all tower health bars bigger permanently. The interface only knows what unit is it when the mouse is over it - so it's either all units get bigger bars, or you hover the mouse.

Awesome! May I suggest custom HP/MP mana bars to make them bigger? Like taller and a tad bit wider for HEROES?

[Magissia]

They will disable it soon

[Idejder]

They will disable it soon
Or they will just make tower health bars larger like a lot of people want? Don't be so whiny.

I don't see any good in making KSing easier.

[Schneider]

I don't want them bigger, you must addapt. Everything shouldn't be easy.

Did you accidentally the whole thing?

[Vadi]

What?

Was kidding dude

[Unearthly]

You're right. In fact, why do we even have 3D graphics? Why, back in MY day, we only had ASCII graphics in a console window. I bet that would make it a lot harder for you whippersnappers. And you know what? We liked it!

[BTS0x0]

Did you accidentally the whole thing?

Haha, yes he accidentally the tower health bars.

[_White]

A beautiful mod, thank you for taking the time to improve my gameplay, whilst others try to degrade it.
Just a matter of time before it is blocked. :|

[endo]

you guys uh realize that theres a scale option for hp/mana bars in the options menu right....?

just turn that up and everythings better

great job. :)

[Everybody1]

That doesn't work ;)

[Sucker`]

Thx for your work dude, but as long as you have to rollover with your mouse this tool doesnt help me very much, its a bit confusing and you cant do anything with your mouse while looking at the big healthbar, i hope S2 will fix the little healthbars soon

[Shazam1]

Pretty cool, hope they add this soon so we don't have to resort to scrolling over the towers.

[poon]

you know what would be a good mod ?
making the enemy item / health / mana bar a lot larger;
sometime when i'm playing axe i can barely see if their health are lower than 300;
i'd have to get real close Q-Q

[Idejder]

Moved

[MsPudding]

Okay.. why is everyone saying that by making the bars larger, it becomes easier? EASIER TO SEE? Wow. what a notion.

[Barter]

Yeah, only that the option doesn't really work, not for me atleast and for a lot of people it seems (everyone?).

[FLashFIr]

so it's either all units get bigger bars, or you hover the mouse.

I actually. Want all of them bigger... this is like comparing a mouse to an elephant. No skill involved for all you people who claim "faggotry!"


I would actually like everything bigger... Like in DotA you can actually ACCURATELY guestimate the # of hitpoints a unit has and be within 50-150 hit points.

Mod Please? :D

[TeckMan]

I would like all HP bars larger, including creeps. heroes should be larger than creeps though and towers larger still. this would be ideal imo. and all without having to mouseover.

[kertiek]

the file that this mod edits has been updated ... could u update the mod pls? :D

[adv_fmr]

the file that this mod edits has been updated ... could u update the mod pls? :D

+1 =)

[Jager]

Cheers for this great fix, Idk why hasn't this actually been implemented in game yet. D:

[ElementUser]

Is this mod useless now? :(

(Because of Patch 0.1.46 changes that is)

[Vadi]

But that's a good thing! All mods are about fixing deficiencies in the original interface.

[Procreate]

I need help downloading this certain mod. It downloads into a .s2z format and it wont appear in my HoNModMan. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if it's you're link. Please, A quick response is appreciated. Just go ahead and PM me over the forums. Thank you. -Procreate.

[MaxGhost]

Read the stickied threads please.

Also, I'm pretty sure this was implemented. I'm not sure why you would want any bigger.

[taion]

This did get implemented. Shouldn't Vadi have :AlchemistBones: for this?

ETA: If not, you know, :GeometersBane: for basically kicking off this whole modding thing in the first place?

[SykoAzn]

Maybe people should wear glasses?
