Mana Costs 1.2.4

About this mod

While it might have chances winning the "most uninspired and inexpressive mod name" prize, this mod may actually be useful for some people. It displays the mana costs of spells and items directly over the icons:



This mod is not compatible with Tiny UI nor MiniUI.
I also didn't bother to create a s2z version since this mod edits ui/game.interface which is used by many if not most interesting mods.

I made my own version of this and I"m sharing it here, I hope that's ok with you Notausgang.
The only thing I changed is made it smaller and place it at the bottom left.
Oh and the not so nice thing is I removed the auto update url from the mod.xml because else it'd get overwritten :<

download honmod

Basically the same thing, but the numbers in the bottom left on top of the icons. This version is compatible with TinyUI.

Awesome Idea! Installing it now and I know I will love it

[Keshoon]

Yet another great mod! Thanks for taking the time to make this!

[Maximus`o_O]

now i am not sure if i should use tiny-mod or this 1 instead....

[BeastmanAIDS]

"Uninspired" perhaps, but still useful. Thanks ^_^

Added in the repo.

WOW awesome! I always hate looking at my skills trying to add them up to see if i have enough, now this makes it easy.

Edit: AWW can't use this with TINYUI?!?! (( Nvm I will not use.

[MaxGhost]

I checked out your code, and I fail to see how this is incompatible with TinyUI. TinyUI doesn't touch the sections you're editing.

Edit: I noticed it's because TinyUI moves the icons that you listed it as "incompatible". If you used relative positioning, you wouldn't have that problem.

Any chance you would add a countdown timer in seconds for when you will have mana to use each the skill based off of current rate of regen? Barter's Info panel has a similar thing that tells how long in seconds until you have max HP/Mana.

Just a suggestion, love the mod =P

or move the position of the numbers onto the button? not sure if the button would overlap the numbers or not but just an idea.

[MaxGhost]

Well I'm gonna just make a TinyUI compatible version instead I guess...

Awesome^2

Wow, what a coincidence. I have been using a similar mod for about a month. Here's my interface:

Edit: OP link should work better now.

what the hell is that? where did you get it? :/

[[ToX]grohn]

what the hell is that? where did you get it? :/

I made it. Its essentially the same as the OP, but instead of placing the text above the icon, it places it in the bottom left corner.

any idea for a release on yours as well?

[rizzle]

It appears that my screen's aspect ratio or something makes the mana bars go right over my gold and right underneath the frame etc. as you can see in the ss =o

I'm using 1920x1080 (16:9) screen resolution.
The mana value's overlaying my gold is about the only thing stopping my from using this.
gj though =o

[[FMPA]xXMephistoXx]

Are you going to release your mod, AsiaPingPong? 'cause I kinda liked it better in the lower left corner. Although, both mods are great

[opcon]

Awesome mod, good job.
