About

wuuh_playernames displays player names, level and health and mana as a percent along with their healthbars. It's based on "Hero Teams 1.3(beta)" by Dynamiczny and "Hero Health And Mana Percentages" by [LC]slime73. However, instead of merging both mods, wuuh_playernames has been rewritten mostly from scratch.


Upcoming features

Moveable Frames support

Features

Compact design
The players names are displayed above the heros, color depending on their alignment to you. The "Hero Health And Mana Percentages" are displayed beneath the health/mana bars. Left of the bars you have a little box, containing the hero's level. You may change the background opacity or turn a whole label off via the mod options.

Low health indicator
Not a real indicator, but if a hero's health drops below the user defined threshold (default 35%), his name gets changed into an alert (default "HEAL ME!", "HELP ME!" or "KILL ME!" + "FINISH HIM!" [the last one at health<15%]) depending on his alignment to you. Also the font size increases. Lite: No name change but instead a small skull gets displayed above the enemy player's head.

Can be switched on/off in the mod options.

You could try to add a dark background under the hp percantage and the name.

Tried that before but didnt like it. Takes to much space for my kind of taste. I will add an option for it in the next version though. In the meantime you could try FrozenDragon's version of Hero Health And Mana Percentages

Now that made this mod complete in my opinion, thanks to OP and the modification by the big n00b :P

This mod is awesome, really.

It should be added to the Repository

[Darkager]

Nicely done. I like it. You took a slightly different approach to what I was working on with my adaption to the Hero Health & Mana percentages. I got stuck adjusting box widths per user name (width of the interface would be determined by player's name, but it wasn't working properly. Very inconsistent).

A bug I noticed: An ally with less than 10% hp changes to "EAL ME" -- This seems to be due to the size of the box given for the text. Should be wider to handle the scaling name change size. Same thing with enemies "KILL HIM"

A couple suggestions I would make:
--Incorporate options for the displays. i.e. checkbox for displaying the level, checkbox for percentages, checkbox for name changes based on health, etc.. (I can offer assistance with that, if you like. I have most of that done from what I was working on with the Hero Health/Mana perecentages.)

--I would think 30% would be a more proper percentage to change to "KILL HIM". Same Maybe 10% for "FINISH HIM" (considering HP amounts in late-game)

I agree with Darkager. You should add check boxes

New version coming soon

[[my3D]MackKnife]

Soon :-)

New version coming soon

cool ^^

[[Capt]Seraphym]

Nice mod Ty

[Shakaku]

AMAZING

[[ShAn]Montis]

New version coming soon

when?

[[wuuh]riddie]

when?

I might have allowed myself a bit too much optimism there. The script was, contrary to the rumors, a lot less polished and a lot more improvised than what would have been good for it. While rewriting the whole thing I ran into some problems which - by now - should be fixed again. So I would say the new release date now depends on how long it takes to add the GUI options people requested. Also, I'm busy playing HoN. Goddamnit I love this game

[HearthCore]

This mod seems not to work with "Bang Nameplate Cooldowns" which places small Grenn/Orange/Yellor/Red bars above the heads of allies Nameplates.


That's sad :/
Would really like them to work together. Please figure something out

[Darkager]

wuuh, if you want, I'll do the options part for the interface...
I'm not going to start on it if you're going to do it too.

If so, release what you have or PM me a link with what you have and I'll create the options section.
