    Improved UI by Barter

    This addon has been discontinued.
    -------------------------------------------------------------------

    Well, I'm back, sorry for not answering in a while, been busy and in vacation and don't have much time lately to mess with the mod, or the will for that matter :S

    Well, for those reasons I won't be updating the mod anymore, if anyone wants to use any code from it in their addons, or even pick this one up and continue it, feel free to do so, if you have any questions about the code just ask me and I'll try to answer.

    I'll make some simpler but usefull (I hope) addons in the future I guess, but nothing like this, not for now at least. I'm gonna update the first post with nextday's fixed version and the one that works with MiniUI. Anyway, thanks for using the addon, cya around :P



    version working in 0.1.64 (thanks to nextday)

    version working with MiniUI (thanks to shadowexile)
    http://www.mediafire.com/?c1mmwx2n4fm


    -------------------------------------------------------------------

    Features
    - Addon compatible
    Modders can make addons for the mod. What are the advantages of doing this? As an addon you get a button inside the menu of the Improved UI, where you can put all the options for your mod/addon, instead of each addon having a button somewhere in the interface, while you have your code on your own package. The only difference between an addon and a standalone is the options inside the menu, any mod can be converted into an addon. A simple guide here.

    - Death Timer
    You can easily see when a hero is dead and how long until they respawn, you can also enable the mod to warn your team on chat when an enemy, ally or yourself has just respawned.

    - Improved Minimap
    A movable and scalable minimap that you can toggle to show/hide with a hotkey, you can also change it's opacity and make it clickable or not.

    - Target UI
    A frame that shows the HP/Mana of the target, you can move and scale it, toggle Buffs/Debuffs and Effective Health (both Physical and Magic).

    - Info Panel
    A small panel with a lot of information that you can toggle on/off individually, it shows the info of your Active Unit and your Target. Some of the info include Dps, both Armors %, both Effective Healths, HP and Mana regen/s, time till full HP/Mana in seconds, Movespeed and others.

    - Team UI
    A frame for each Allied Hero that you can move wherever you want, showing name, HP/Mana bars, Gold, Skills levels and cooldowns, with a couple of layouts you can chose from. Also you can chose to show bars below the Ally hero units' hp/mana bar, wich show the status of each of their skills.

    - Movable Chat
    The game chat is now movable so you can place all the rest of the panels where you want without getting in the way of your messages.

    - Others
    Some other minor options you can turn on like buff times above the buff icons.

    - Very Customizable
    You can toggle on/off all of the features so that you only use exactly what you want. Many of the frames are movable and scalable, and all of them have various options to customize them further, all of wich stay saved after you exit the game.

    - Easy to use
    Just install it, open the menu by clicking on the "blue +" on the top-left corner while in a game, configure it however you want and you are good to go.


    Changelog:

    Code:
    v1.082
    - fixed the voting setsave problem
    
    v1.081
    - fixed the hide death timers when voting option
    
    v1.08
    - you can now chose to show bars below the ally hero units' hp/mana bar,
     wich show the status of their skills in the same colors as the team ui. 
    **on this release it only updates when the hp %, mana % and level of the 
    hero changes, so it will update fairly regularly, but there may be times 
    when it doesnt update for a while, like if the hero is full mana and hp, but 
    on a normal game it should not be a problem. I'll try to find a way to 
    update always**
    - added an option to hide the respawn timer if there is a voting that you 
    can vote on going on
    - maybe something else I missed, nothing major tough
    
     v1.07
    - added two new addons: levelup hotkeys and autocast hotkeys
    - fixed the panel that holds the addons buttons to scale properly
    - added more templates to the team ui
    - added an option to warn the respawn for only yourself
    
    v1.061
    - version number ingame didnt change
    - fixed some minor bugs
    - juking map addon got a new map that I made myself
    
    v1.06
    - added a confirmation to the reset settings
    - added addon support with honmod, there's a link to an addon that shows 
    the juking map as an example, addons are honmod only, cant do without it, 
    any questions just ask
    
    v1.05
    - fixed buffs with no duration showing 0s sometimes
    - you can now hide specific team frames
    - added another layout option for the team ui
    - renamed the 'default' button to 'reset settings'
    - added options to warn your own, enemy or ally respawns
    - made death timers smaller to fit on non-widescreen resolutions


    To do:
    Code:
    - share units with all button
    - scoreboard
    - "+" somewhere else as an option
    - chat macros
    - creep/rune spawn timer
    - spectator interface
    - more? =o
    A screenshot, 'a little' outdated:




    Addons

    - Juking Map
    It shows an image with the Caldavar map and most of the juking spots, the addon uses the same options as the minimap options, with a hotkey to toggle, options to enable, change scale and opacity. This is meant as an example for modders to make their own addons, but it is fully functional.

    - Levelup Hotkeys
    With this addon you can chose a hotkey to levelup any of your skills, including stats.

    - Autocast Hotkeys
    With this addon you can chose a hotkey to toggle the autocast of any skills.

    Thanks, btw, some things only start getting updated after the game clock is past 0, aka game started, like moving frames, I'll do something about it later, for now its like that.

    Well, its the same name :P

    Btw, just uploaded a version fixing the minimap, effects were showing up even with it hidden.

    Well I compared the two files I have and they are the same. I've installed the new version to my combination and its still giving me the older version.

    [Edit] I've figured it out, turns out the game still loads game_spectator.interface even if your in a normal game.. my spec file had your old mod in it and it was overwriting my game.interface with your updated mod in it. Odd =/

    [Bug] Hotkey for minimap doesn't work for me
    (Fixed? Im an idiot)

    I also have a suggestion could you move the target debuff/buffs from the bottom right to being anchored to the top of the target ui?

    Like this =/ lol I'm so impatient some times, pm me if you want my changed .package

    Very nice, what files is this editing so I know what other mods it will conflict with?
    I'm currently using:
    13, 15, 22, 24, 26, 37
    and I'd assume only #13 is affected.

    -Alternatively, you can use "Disconnect" instead of "Quit" to disconnect from current game.
    3) press ALT + F4 to RAGE QUIT!
    -Note: This will NOT work if you have a chatbox focused. (Escape to unfocus a chatbox)
    **If you have any questions about keybinds in HoN, feel free to ask and I'll try my best to help.

    It uses game.interface so anything that uses that (13) will need to be combined.

    Quick suggestions:

    Please allow an even smaller scalesize on the Minimap. It's actually quite large even at 50%, when it's not tucked away into some corner!

    Please consider adding a transparency option to the minimap as well.

    Please consider adding movability, transparency, and scalability options for the handling of player buffs / debuffs and target buffs / debuffs.

    Great addon. Thanks!

    so, I've had mixed results with settings being saved from your mod... my last 2 games it saved everything, so I'm not sure if it's just practice mode messing with it, or what. Maybe more testing is needed. Just hope you catch this before you go crazy trying to figure it out in the morning =P
    My suggestion with your 2ndary placement of the Magic EH, and Armor EH would be one above, and one below the target health. Maybe silver color for armor EH, and a purpleish for magic EH.

    Enjoying this mod a lot. Your work is greatly appreciated. Eventually I'll come up with something else for you to add =) =).
