If you host 1v1 and minimize
« on: March 23, 2015, 06:28:26 PM »
you may find this useful. It's an .exe so probably no1 will run it anyway lol. PM me your suggestions about this awesome .exe file
http://www.speedyshare.com/KqqCh/beeper.exe

1. Start beeper.exe and war2
2. Press F7 (to start tracking)
3. Host the game
4. Minimize & watch porn. Wait for beeps
5. When hearing a beep, press F6 to display players in game

Hotkeys:
F6 for player display
F7 to start/pause (beeping, refreshing player list - it's good to pause when the game is started and start again when it's rehosted. If you don't, it will beep once after the game starts)
F8 to turn beeper.exe off

Beep occurs when some1 leaves or joins the game.

works for melee only (can upgrade if necessary)


It wasn't much work (~~10mins) cuz it only uses the tracking function from hosting bot. Made it for myself but if you want to use it without bitching about "wtf exe viruz" then go ahead.

Great idea, Claw!

works for melee only (can upgrade if necessary)
You probably implemented the trigger for player in slot 2? How about the trigger for increasing total amount of players in game? That should work with any type of the game and for more then 2 players (beep for each new player joining).

I still didn't test it, sorry, too busy with my real life and main work now...
Need help to translate War2Combat to German, French, Italian, Polish or another language: http://forum.war2.ru/index.php/topic,4728.0.html
Please, contact me if you are interested in that.

it's checking the total amount of players every 1000ms so working just as you suggested :p

Nope, memory values for tvb are sligtly different, for now "home team" and "away team" are treated as players in tvb games. a simple if/else + diff memory values is enough to make it work and will be done if this sees any real use

Yes I know exactly what claw is saying lol. This shows me a very lazy programmer haha ;)

Also reminds me of the admin finder I made along time ago. It would watch a value and sniff out strings and look for blid, foonat, etc..... haha
