This is awesome. Kudos, dude.

Very cool indeed, awesome!

I may not be able to use the mod, but I’ll sure benefit from its results. This is a bonus for the whole community.

This mod just got a huge update.
On the surface it might not look as much, but it got redesigned internally.
There is now also an exprimental feature to track damage of other players (up to 3), so you can compete with your friends in dungeons.

Does this apply to thralls too?
Sorry if it’s a silly question, I did not try the mod out yet (due to the game being redownloaded - because of an error we discussed before -, and the download speeds are awful around here, but I digress).

It already measured thralls following you originally
Like, here’s an example from a while back where I had identical war party thralls competing against a well trained one

every time I see this thread, my brain fills in “damage meteor mod” because of the other thread…

Xevyr · 2023-01-22T14:59:04.274Z

I mean, meteors are highly destructive things and do a lot of damage So still accurate!

There is a mod that has a spell added to sorcery that does drop a meteor on a targeted location. With predictably hilarious results.

@Xevyr
A crossover? Would be cool if we could measure and display the damage meteors deal!
Especially with spell-casted meteors.

Don’t know how on earth you keep coming up with such good, winning ideas at this rate.

Dragoonduneman · 2023-01-25T07:39:09.978Z

can you also record when healing was used this be nice to use in a PVP tournament when healing is suppose to be restricted.

Xevyr · 2023-01-25T14:31:36.329Z

No, it doesn’t measure healing, at least not for now.
Only damage done and damage received.

Xevyr · 2023-01-25T17:56:30.586Z

Yay! @Pixelcave just did a showcase video on this!!!

Taemien · 2023-01-25T18:57:46.210Z

Awesome job by @Pixelcave with the video.

Pixelcave · 2023-01-25T19:28:44.806Z

Thank you!

I love this mod. Lets me do my own “balanced mods” thing in my own private server.

However, testing stuff is a pain since I made an enclosure where I spawn NPCs and go at them all “cloacked” like to somewhat test weapons against each other.

Do you know if there’s a way to spawn a zero XP, unresponsive but hostile (targettable and attackable) NPC? That would be an amazing addition to your DPS metre, if there is none.

Cheers for this amazing mod.

Xevyr · 2023-06-20T02:41:47.335Z

I replied to that in discord, but for others reading the thread:
There is a Funcom dummy you can spawn that has very little (I think 12 if I remember correctly?) armor and 150k health and is completely passive.
XX_Test_DoNothing_HealthBoost

I typically use that, or if I want a large hitbox fixed HP something to kill, I usually go for the giant croc

I’ve been working on this mod for a week now since we got the new devkit…
For Chapter 2 it’s going to have a major update. It’s not going to look or feel much different though, but the insides are completely new

I know people like to “see” the change… soooo umm… here’s a sneaky preview of the new titlebar for example!

Also as a side-note regarding the performance of the mod as I got some concerns on the steam comments where people were told by their server admins that they won’t install it because it’s… let me quote this one…

Funny Server Admins:

“we won’t be adding in the damage meter one as it will be too much on the server in terms of reading and calculating constant data when players are attacking npcs”

I was always aware that it doesn’t have much impact, in fact it’s negligible… especially on the server…

However while working on it now I actually tried to benchmark it I couldn’t… it literally runs in 0-1 ms… so… even if you have a thousand NPCs simultaneously being hit on the server… it’ll be just fine lol.

In fact all parts of it are that fast, even the client side. Even the bar generation loop runs under 1 ms on my average 3 year old gaming pc… (the frequency of which btw can be adjusted in the settings)

The most noticeable client-side performance impact would be from the floating damage numbers in case you throw a grenade in a crowd, since the numbers have to be displayed / animated and all that jazz, ofc those can be simply turned off if someone is doing that a lot and their computer is noticing the difference.
Bottom line… it has virtually ZERO server impact, so nothing to be afraid of.

The mod is wonderful. I just have one question: is it possible to expand the font size scale (settings) in the direction of increasing it? This applies to the top right panel; the letters are difficult to read during the game. I would increase my font size by at least one and a half times …
