Higher Ground Extender

[blazingezus]

How do I get my screen to look like the screen shot in the main post?

 Limbo Edition

---

Please install this beta into an empty folder, just in case something goes totally wrong. So you don't mess up your running installation of the older HGX version!

Screenshot of the expanded statistic overlay showing the new damage types (the most right bars labeled B D D D R A) representing:

• Blight


• Deception


• Degeneration


• Digestion


• Retribution


• Antimagic

Documentation

Sadly dropbox discontinued the rendering of html content some time back ago, so you have to download the documentation and unzip into an empty folder (open the HGXLE.html file). That given made the use of a tiddlywiki obsolete, but neither have the time nor the mood to change the doc format. Each and every typo and error in the documentation has been planned thoroughly. Please bear with me.

https://https://www.dropbox.com/s/ds19xe4n89fokel/hgxle-html-doc.zip?dl=1

Public Beta

A download link is in the html file. For your convenience here is the link taken of the documentation(but better have a look at the documentation first):

Public beta (initial release)

Quick overview

• The XML files containing opponents data as well as the status rules and area files are taken from the old HGX beta 2.8.5. Consider to use Paradoom's data files made available here: hgx-monster-data-update


• Old python scripts, status rules are supposed to work.


• Report creation doesn't work anymore. A change broke the old template and no new template is provided.


• KVing opponents casting 'Know Vulnerabilities' or using GI's 'To Reign in Hell' is supposed to work again (see 'How to KV opponents' in the docs)


• Much more.... please read the documentation


• Last minute change: the option pages General and Modules swapped their contents

Latest beta/release

The following link will always point to the latest beta (if there will be another one at all):

Latest beta


Changelog

Screenshot of the actual content(will be updated accordingly to the content of the file):

Any update/changes to the documentation or HGX will be listed here:

Actual changes

I will revisit this thread from time to time and watch out for any bugs.

Enjoy!

Hello and thanks but... who are you?

[Raj]

I decided you were a legit nerd and tested the hgx, properly working against the new dmg types, all good

[somes]

Pretty sure it's Salek.

[elgrathforestwalke]

I am having 2 issues, 1 is no data on any mobs when taking damage, the overlay just has question marks. And 2 when the mobs die they show up in the list with fugue timers. Any thoughts on a fix or why this is happening.

Thanks.

[Paradoom]

That´s happening if a data file cannot be parsed fully. HGX stops to read any more data from them at that point when you start it. You can see which has the error by checking the log file. Either correct that error or check out the files that I put up for HGX under highergroundpoa.proboards.com/thread/24954/hgx-monster-data-update.

im having some issues with map pins not showing, i have it set to show them and i cant figure out why they dont come up, any help would be greatly appreciated.
the monster data, timers, and the logs are working.

[Raj]

Hard to give help this way, copy here an example of your edited areas.d xml content.

[Deleted]

That error makes all successive files not load properly: Hells loads after Abyss, in your case it simply stops working.

Is there a current link to 2.8.5? the dropbox link in OP is down.

I've been having a lot of problems getting HGX to load. 2.8.5 crashes as soon as i launch it. i installed the limbo beta linked above, and nothing happens at all when i run hgx. any ideas?

i did add the <loadFromRemoteSources enabled="true"/> where needed, didnt help
