Tower Range Indicator [IMPROVED]

[Sephinator]

Requested by Flibble_ (Thread 77021 (http://forums.heroesofnewerth.com/showthread.php?t=77021))

This mod shows the attack range of all alive towers on the map.
You must have vision of the tower for the indicator to work.

Try this one if you get lag: http://www.mediafire.com/?zyojrmznkgz
Uses billboards instead of groundsprites. Shouldn't have any lag issues, but it will go under the terrain if there are hills or cliffs nearby.

thanks a lot :)

[PistoIero]

very nice mod!

Random question : Is the stealth detection range of the tower the same as its attack range?

[DdsT]

Honmod link broken :/
edit : fine now ! Nice mod !

[Ignorance]

I like it!

Wow, really nice

[A`nub`is]

Awesome... so you probably could do the same for neutral spawns I guess?

[Zelfana]

The stealth detection range is the tower's vision range, someone can dig that from the files if they're nice enough.

[PistoIero]

Got my awnser elsewhere, reveal range is 900 (attack range is 700).

[ElementUser]

legion_tower.entity and hellbourne_tower.entity


attackrange="700"
aggrorange="700"
sightrangeday="1900"
sightrangenight="800"
revealrange="900"
So actually it's not the same.

[huY]

Awesome!

IMO, you should make an option that shows only range of the closest tower to your hero(the closest friendly tower and enemy tower) and another one that shows only the closest enemy's tower range(completely disables the mod on friendly towers). Also, if it's possible, make another option to change the range indicator's opacity/color.

[Okuu]

I prefer this more subtle version. It's pretty useful if you want to surprise someone with stun near tower early game now that you know it's exact range ;)

[Zejety]

Can you add an other slightly different colored circle for their reveal range? :>

[MaxGhost]

Can you add an other slightly different colored circle for their reveal range? :>

+1 to that

[BlacRyu]

Tested it, and the vision range really isn't that much farther than the attack range, due to the fact that the true attack range also takes into account the radius of the building.

Here's what it looks like:

Here's the s2z: http://www.mediafire.com/?liht0mwmwnt

The legion tower indicators are very slightly off, too lazy to re-upload.

[MaxGhost]

<3 the random partyzephyr.

[Zelfana]

The vision range would help more than reveal range imo. But if it won't work from fog it won't help any after all.

[Blacksmiff]

woot no more accidentally standing in tower range.

[BlacRyu]

I'd suggest not using the second detection ring, the game seems to have problems displaying a lot of ground sprites at once.
Should work fine if you combine them both into one texture though. Or just don't use it since it's almost the same as attack range.

[Acren]

Oh, I like!! Wanted something like this ever since I started playing last year. I'll try it when i get home

[RenoFox]

Awesome mod idea :D

[Creep666]

An ingame-toggle would be superb.
It gets kinda annoying when the first thing u see each match are those grey range indicators.
pls comment on the possibility of real-time toggling...

It isn't possible. It's done through the tower entity, not the UI.

That would be harder to do, IMHO, but I know what you mean. Like a total tower defense perimeter instead of the indicators overlapping.

Anyways - if anybody is dissatisfied with the way the perimeter indicator looks it's EXTREMELY easy to modify - just open the .honmod file with any common file packer like 7-Zip and look for the file called range_circle.tga in buildings/range_circle - you can draw whatever you like, even smiley faces, with your favorite graphics editor supporting .tga (i.e. Paint.NET).

Here's what I did to mine:

I was just going to ask for that.

[Lim_Dul]

I looked in the file and it seems this is just the modified range_circle.tga I posted above. =)
If I'm correct, then the MOD should look like this (zoomed out in Practice Mode), even though I'm not actually using it (slight FPS drop and too much screen clutter for the doubtful benefits this provides anyways, IMHO).

I can confirm this, all legion tower radius are too big.

Edit: And for those, who don't like the thick circular arc: unzip the mod, open the hellbourne & legion *.effect-File and change the "<groundsprite ... alpha"-Value. I prefer "0.05" instead of the default "0.2". Still good to see, but not that nasty.

Edit2: I just fixed the legion tower range problem. The size of the groundsprite has to be reduced to "380".

Nice, I'll be waiting ^^

but don't make a different mod for fountain range, simply implement it on this one

and maybe create some options, if it's not asking for too much :p

[Sephinator]

Can't fix any options, toogles, color change ingame or anything related to UI Modding. This is changing the file of the tower.

1.4 - Made it a little more transparent.

If you got any problems with this mod. Tell me what version you're using.

[Oxrana]

Made it a little more transparent. IMHO its too transparent now... Maybe you can add an option to choose how visible it will be (line and shading)?

The line is too thin imho, wich allows for pixelation

http://i49.tinypic.com/6xqhba.jpg

[Sephinator]

I got no time for fixing that now.

Maybe I'll fix it tomorrow.

[Zelfana]

The shade is ok but the line is too thin, maybe make it more white, too?

The shading is the small gray shade inside the circle.
w/o shading is only the line.

So... without shading eats less memory/performance?

Don't think so - you still have additional textures being loaded and they still have transparency that the engine needs to deal with.

You could disable a fill graphics for it running smoothly:

no anti-alias
no anisotropic
no all options below special effects
no shadows...

you should be able to get higher fps.

lol You're attempting to run it at damn near max settings. Half of that crap you wouldn't even notice if it was turned off.

[A`nub`is]

anti-aliasing > 2x is hardly noticeable even on a paused screen.
Put it to 2x and you'll get 60 frames easily, especially if you also tune down texture filtering to simply 1x anisotropic or whatever... doesn't "do anything" anyway.

[_SouLSLayeR_]

lolol, those aren't the settings I usually got, I just compared with and without the mod.If I had all those stuff ON, I doubt I the game would be PLAYABLE during teamfights! O_o

btw the game without special effects and post processing looks a bit bleh.

Hmm... you can play with special effects and post processing... but with 2x anti-alias and 2x anisotropic,

working fine here... btw, how do you check the fps in-game???

If you look at my post on the first page you'll see that the truesight range is about half a creep-length farther than the attack range. You should be able to guess where it is without needing another circle.

Are these kind of rings possible to be done with AOE ulties like Magmus and Glacius? I mean if you hold mouse over the button, you get a ring to show the radius?

I know that this mod affects the files and not the GUI, but is it still possible somehow?

Not possible unless you know in advance which team you are going be on. Since this mod just changes the effect it cannot be changed at runtime (ie based on what team you are on)

[Juke_Box]

I must say this mod can get extremely annoying after a while. would it be possible to make it so that the tower range is revealed for either:

this could be toggled through mod options framework..

a) enemy towers only

b) range indicators are shown when you are less than 300 range outside of the tower sight range.

That was in practice mode. You can't zoom out like that in regular games. He only did to show the full radius of the tower.

i rly lik it and since the new patch havent been able to use it

[Zaraki]

I'm using BlackRyu's version of this but the rings are not accurate. I'm guessing it has to do with the fact that he uses billboards, which don't take terrain into account. Seems to me like the mod losses much of its purpose if it looses it's accuracy. So I'm wondering if anyone can get the old original version to be compatible with the recent patch.

[PsymonRED]

problem is... should we BAN them the soulstealer range mod?

[BirdmanDunks]

Can you add an other slightly different colored circle for their reveal range? :>

i agree, that would be a huge advantage to the stealth users, nothing like getting too close with 2 enemy's in lane and they notice you cause you stepped inside that stealth range that isnt really known, either way thats good to know now but id say it would be a great upgrade to an already great mod:nigh::scou:

another idea, if you can somehow combine this mod with the tower deny mod, with an ability to make a sound and map notification when a tower needs to be guarded/denyd' or an enemy tower not nessisarily deniable but you can push and destroy. 20% tower hp or something like that.

combine 2 mods for one super tower mod, sounds like dream world

Update the first post please?

does this mod still cause problems with the 'bad snapshot error' and the (random number) unread bits errors?

[Ophelia]

Is it possible to do the same with neutral camps? Can you make a mod to show the range of the camps for stacking so I can pull em out side that range and attack em without blocking the spawn or having to kill 2 camps at once.

That is not this mod.

Without editing the map, no.

[Seven111]

There is the option of just opening up the mod.xml file in the pack and editing it to say version=-1.*.*

[buzza]

For those last versions, have you recoded something ? Or just changed the version in the .xml file ?
Because I'm having some crashes now and then, pretty often actually, and I'm checking if some mods could be the cause.

Ow and I can see v1.4 is released, but can't find the dl link... I'm still @ 1.3. Anyone know about it ?

[m4rt1jn]

update on this? Not working since retail

[zunaguli]

omg, only "bug" is the wrong gameversion in the mod, its just about replacing "0.3.*" with "1.0.*"!!!
the 2 versions, original and atmu ones, are already edited and ready to use for the lazy ones, links are some posts above!

dont cry for updates, try to inform u and do it urself, its a work of 20 seconds with 1 min of reading before! or at least use the already edited ones...

[BourbonCrow]

To update this mod and make it work for latest version.. or well any version really...
raname the Tower Range.honmod to Tower Range.s2z and open it with winrar for example honmods are just really a zip file including a icon and the code..
and inside the file open the file mod.xml in a text editor look up the line
appversion= << should say some version after like "-0.1" in the not working version or something anyways just make that version into a * like below

appversion="-*"
and then save.. and update the archive with the new mod.xml file then rename the Tower Range.s2z to Tower Range.honmod and just apply the mod like normal again that works great for me

btw i suck at describing

this reduces skill to zero...

[RustySpoon]

this reduces skill to zero...

How exactly does this reduce skills anyway? If anything, this should be improving your skills. It's like using flash cards to remember something, say a math formula. Look at the flashcard, can't remember the formula? Flip it over and there it is. Once this is done a couple of times, the formula will stick in your head and you will no longer need to look at the card. Just like this, once you play a few games with this range indicator, eventually you will know where the range is to the point you will no longer need it.
After all, it doesn't take skills to know where the range is, it takes memorization, which has nothing to do with skills.

>he thinks HoN required skill in the first place
:cool:

[Zelfana]

I personally don't really care if we can keep using this or not but I'm laughing at the bads thinking this mod actually gives any advantage. The advantage is very minimal at best and if you have memorized the ranges already it doesn't really change anything. The only real benefit from this addon is that I've noticed is that the circles also show how far the towers can detect invis so you can go as close as you possibly can without getting detected. But is there really a situation where you can do something better with that information?

[IceyWill]

Somoen should update this.

[starboots]

Somoen should update this.

Agreed.

[Tankie]

u can learn to do it yourselves. just simply edit the mod.xml in the honmod and change the hon version to "*"

this mod still works fine

[Kampfhamster]

Tanki and how do you open the honmod to change it?

[Tankie]

well i use winrar, but you can use any program that can open .zip folders to open .honmod

but personally i like this version of tower range indicators

[mLgz0rn]

I've got .honmods in C:\hon\game\mods I open them with notepad and get gibberish. How do I change the version?

first you need to unpack your .honmod file or just take out the mod.xml using winrar or some other program, 7zip, winzip.

open the mod.xml with notepad or any other texteditor program.
find appversion= in the mod.xml file and change it to " appversion="-1.*.*" or just " appversion="-*"
after that save it and put i back into the .honmod file.

[Bimmer_DK]

Oh, I like!! Wanted something like this ever since I started playing last year. I'll try it when i get home

[SneakerXZ]

Tested it, and the vision range really isn't that much farther than the attack range, due to the fact that the true attack range also takes into account the radius of the building.

Here's what it looks like:

i have a question regarding the tower range indicators mods

currently, from what i understand anyways, this mod draws an additional circle on the model of towers.

my question is.. instead of drawing a circle around the tower, couldnt you just draw it into the model of something else that doesnt move, but is unique, so this way the circles stay visible regardless of if you have vision of the tower or not?

like.. using raxes (since they dont move), or other buildings (perhaps the meatball since its unique, etc)

just trying to think of a way to get around the limitation of needing vision to see the towers range.

[Spiky]

outdated, next one...

Not sure if this mod is updated or not, but if it is, all you do it download the file. Put it on your desktop. Double click it. Open it with Mod Man.

If you haven't had Mod Man opened before you might need to tell it where your HoN folder is. I assume c/programs/Heroes of newerth.


/edit: If it's not up to date, go to User Interfaces and find "Range indicators".

There's a tower range in there too.
