New Range Indicators [18/6/2011]

[[TECH]RazielXYZ]

He is now maintaining his mods. http://forums.heroesofnewerth.com/sh...d.php?t=169981

Since He kind of stopped updating the Cast Range Indicators, I updated them for Aluna, Tremble and Nomad, and posted them in his thread. However, I decided to start a new thread so people don't have to search the last 5 pages of a thread to find the latest version.
Credits for this great mod go to He, as I haven't added too much to it to be worthy of any praise >.>

[[TPO]_3iNSt3iN]

thank you! im glad someone is taking this over

plz update the AOE ones for tremble, nomad, and engi

[[TECH]RazielXYZ]

Ok, I'll try to later today; I didn't before because I don't use AoE indicators, but I might after this

[Supercheese]

About the AoE indicators... if I do update it, what should I add? I mean, last few patches, the only AoEs added were... Tremble's Q, Nomad's Q, maybe Engi's mines...

Well, in addition to those (mines are a good idea) you could put a circle around Tremble's mounds, something like:

<editfile name="heroes/tremble/ability_02/effects/ground.effect">
    <find><![CDATA[<particlesystem name="system0" space="world" scale="1">]]></find>
    <insert position="after">
        <![CDATA[
        
    <groundsprite

        life="1"
        loop="true"
        material="/shared/materials/range_circle/shade/range_circle.material"
        size="300"
        midsizepos=".5"
        alpha="0.22"
        startcolor="0.949 0.580 0.133"
        midcolor="0.949 0.580 0.133"
        endcolor="0.949 0.580 0.133"
            

        midcolorpos=".2"
        position="0 0 0"
        minangle="0"
        maxangle="0"
        angles="0 0 0"
        yawspeed="0"
        
    />
        ]]>
    </insert>
</editfile>

[[TECH]RazielXYZ]

That's a good ideea, thanks. I'll do that.

[RaPoZaUm]

Add a changelog to the first post also a link to the newer version and make the honmod auto-updatable.
Then you'll be worshipped..

[[TECH]RazielXYZ]

I have a changelog (for cast ranges only for now, gonna add one for AoE when I release my first version of that) and links, and the next version that I'll be posting today or tomorow will be auto-updatable, both cast range and AoE range indicators.

[[LOCO]korreWorre]

Thank you

[RaPoZaUm]

Sorry, what I meant was a changelog for both mods. Was in a hurry, couldn't type much...
