Stormfront question...

[Mostly_Harmless]

Searched around these boards but couldn't really find the info I needed...

Anyone know if there's a way to add a mana pulse timer to the stormfront UI? Also... does anyone happen to have a link to some player created skins?

There is no way to add a mana pulse timer, unless you create a skin for it.

The only player created skin I know of is available on the play.net downloads page and it's called "StealthSkin".

Within the confines of Simu's program, even a skin won't help you, but it is possible to write a program that runs around SF to do it... but it required writing a whole shell for stormfront, and adding a graphical UI that allowed the creation of windows that weren't controlled by the stormfront's dialog system. It also required figuring out when an exp pulse triggers, something which isn't exactly perfect yet either (basing it on exp gains worked only when there was exp in the person's head, and basing it on the activeSpell window requires parsing out legitimate activeSpell refresh changes).

A mana pulse occurs exactly as far away from the last exp pulse as the last exp pulse was from the last mana pulse, with two second intervals and a range of 46 to 76 seconds between exp pulses (92-152 seconds for a mana pulse, in four second intervals).

I've mentioned it before but eventually I'll release my UI, it's just not in a state I would like to share it at yet, not meaning to come off as vaporware (I pretty much am) but just wanted to state that... it is possible.
