Plugin package

[fois]

Here you can download all my plugins in 1 package (it's easier to update for me like this...)

Extract war2-plugins.zip into your plugin folder and that's it. If you don't have a plugin folder then install WarCombat 46 standard or full.



The following plugins are included:

HardwareCursor Plugin - Can fix the laggy cursor on Windows 8/10
Ignore Plugin - Can permanently ignore players, even after a restart of the game
PlaySound Plugin - Plays a sound of your choice on events (Game Start/Join game)
NoteBot Plugin - Fixes the incorrect "nobody can join your game" message
AutoWarLat Plugin - Enables the WarLat patch automatically on game start (Same as setting the latency to high and then to low manually)
SmoothScroll Plugin - Changes keyboard and mouse scrolling to scroll 1 cell at a time rather than 2 cells (to get a smooth scroll effect)
MMblack Plugin - Changes the mini map color of the black player to any color you like (by default = pink) without changing the units/buildings colors

Nice work on the plugins. Great stuff here 

Rebuilt your autowarlat thing in ASM and added a fix for that annoying "*\/:><|+^&" message.

Feel free to use this if you want.

 -- edit --

or if you want you can just zero the string and disable the message alltogether

like:

Code: [Select]

  ; patch string table
  mov eax,STRINGTABLE_PTR
  mov eax,[eax]
  add eax,STRING_OFFSET
  mov dword ptr[eax],  0h

of course it only changes the message on the local client, other players not using the plugin will still see "*\/:><|+^&"

Cool idea! Latest combat got the message fixed as well, but maybe it's useful for those that don't want to use the latest version

Hello @fois, I got question about ignore plugin cause sometimes in lobby I can see message from ignored people, any ideas to fix it?

[fois]

@Szwagier

EDIT: I found the problem, it only happened when the message was too long and it displayed the message in multiple lines.

Fixed it now, re-download the plugin from the first post

[Szwagier]

Yes thats possbile I saw only long message, thank you

[fois]

Updated the plugin package with a new "MMblack" plugin that allows you to change the mini map color of the black player to any color you like (by default it's set to pink) - The units/buildings colors will not change using this plugin (they're still black)

Thanks for sharing Fois, bud. Always cool to see new content from you.

I've set up 245 and seems like good enough satisfying color on minimap. Thanks again!
