Im not in game right now, but if you use this do you need to modify any thing you already have set to use a popup to include a color, or is default color used if no other color is specified? also i thought default was yellow but im probably mistaken.

 

[unity0110]

there's no default, have to specify which.

Cool. but the MQ2MMOPopup that I did does any color you want. ;-)

It's in the distro.

[unity0110]

this is just for text, not mob spawns, unless i'm mistaken as to what MQ2MMOPopup does

 

[unity0110]

guess your macroquest FAQ needs updated, it says
MQ2MMOPopup
- Notifys you when new mobs spawn.

Commands:
/mmopopup - Lists commands.
/mpop - Lists commands.

Thanks for pointing that out. I updated the FAQ with the accurate information:

MQ2MMOPopup
- Adds a command to allow you to show a popup on screen in any color, and control the display time, fade delay, etc.

Code:

Usage: mmopopup text [color] [[transparency] [fadein] [fadeout] [hold]] 

Default values are used if not supplied.
color = Color number 0 through 345 (see EQData.h) (default 0)
transparency = 1 through 100 (percent) (default 100)
fadein = Time to 'fade in', in milliseconds (default 50)
fadeout = Time to 'fade out', in milliseconds (default 500)
hold = Time to 'hold message on screen', in milliseconds (default 3000)

Alias command: /mpop

Using /mmopopup or /mpop without arguments shows usage.

even better, now that i got a little bit better idea how to use this i think ill try it out some.

 

[alez]

Either way. Nice work from both of you.

Thanks!

Could this be used like audio triggers?

ie...

#event feign  "has fallen to the ground"

Sub Main
:loop
/doevents
/goto :loop
/return 

Sub Event_feign
   /popup Stand Up!
/return

yes. You can play sounds also if you wished (MQ2CustomSound, MQ2PlaySound).
