Cleaner Battle interface
*Last updated on 05/10/09 (1:05 AM GMT-05)
**Known issue: disables ALL non-player controlled items and gadgets (including dropped items) tooltips.
Inspired by the clean battles mod by pollotedax, I recreated the clean interface with extra visual fixes and improvements. I removed all black areas around and behind the health and mana bars of AI controlled units (creeps and neutrals).

Nice MaxGhost. Thanks a bunch. Somehow I knew it would be you that jumped on this - I even almost PM'ed you!
Playing this game is more fun when people are nice to each other.
Support your team, communicate, and have a good game because of it!

Uploaded a standalone version for anyone not using mod manager.
Thanks for this, looks good. One suggestion though, it would help a little if the bars were centered as they went down, so it's clear which unit the bar belongs too. It seems like currently there is a possibility for some confusion.
Hmm... I dunno... get used to it? O_o
I've played a bunch of games with this update now - thanks.
One thought - When creeps get down to very low life, their lifebars can become nearly invisible. I think maybe 1 or 2 pixels worth of black as an outline around the color would make them stand out just enough.
If not, nice work and thanks anyway.

thanks, i was using the previous addon, i will switch to this one.
Further update.
There are times when a creep can be alive with no color left in their lifebar - it would be all black if the black bars were there. With the black removed at times their lifebars disappear entirely. It's kind of funny to see a creep walking around with "no" life.

Thanks for updating this MaxGhost.
My only request would be to be able to keep the hover info on items placed on the ground.
