Lights of Meridia  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 25
by: Cardinal05, Architectura

Improve your group's ability to work together as a team in Battlegrounds, Cyrodiil and World zones.
* Note that the Light cannot be seen in Dungeons or Trials - a restriction imposed by the game itself.

The divine Light of Meridia shines down upon each group member - so brilliantly that it can be seen from vast distances with ease.






Using different colors - all of which you may configure - the Light of Meridia can identify the following:
  • Tanks, Healers and the Group Leader
  • Fallen group members
  • Fallen group members already being/having been resurrected
Different colors may also be configured for groups in:
  • Battlegrounds
  • Cyrodiil
  • World
PLEASE NOTE:
This add-on requires that you have configured the following setting:
Video > SubSampling Quality
to
HIGH
Any other value for this setting will result in inaccurate visual effects.
2023-03-11 - Version 25

Updated API version.

2021-05-02 - Version 24

Fixed an issue that could cause a member of your group to never be blessed with Meridia's Light.

2021-05-01 - Version 22

Fixed a warning message that appeared as a result of improper initialization of the LibAddonMenu library.
Updated the beam visuals to be more natural.

2021-03-07 - Version 21

Updated API version.

2020-11-15 - Version 20

Fixed an issue that could cause Meridia's Light to shine somewhere off in the distance rather than on your blessed group members while in Imperial City or Blackreach. Worship of Meridia, once fallen out of favor in these regions, has seen an uptick; this may or may not be a coincidence.

2020-03-01 - Version 18

Updated for API version 30.

2019-10-22 - Version 17

Updated for API version 29.

2019-08-16 - Version 16

Added the ability to assign a new, customizable color light - one that shines a
bit brighter than the rest - to individual group members. To do so, target the
group member, open the Interact With Player radial menu and Invoke Meridia's
Blessing upon them.

Fixed an issue that could cause the Light to appear on a group member that was
in a different instance of the same zone.

Fixed a long-standing issue that caused the Light to flicker or briefly appear
and disappear while transitioning between zone subregions.

2019-08-13 - Version 14, 15

Fixed an issue that could sometimes cause Battleground and Cyrodiil teammates'
Lights to fail to display.

Updated the visuals of the Lights to be more visible at lower brightness.

2019-08-12 - Version 13

Support for Scalebreaker API version.

2019-06-15 - Version 12

Adjusted the auto-assignment of unconfigured keybind controls to allow other
addons, such as Votan's Keybinder, to set up your keybinds first.

Revised the visuals of the Light beams.

2019-05-19 - Version 11

Support for Elsweyr API version.

2019-04-30 - Version 10

Added a new Setting:
"Obstacle Penetrating Light"
Enable this Setting to allow Meridia's Light to penetrate all obstacles, such as walls,
trees and terrain.

Added a new Controls keybind:
"Toggle Obstacle Penetration"
Pressing this key (ALT + P by default) will toggle obstacle penetration ON or OFF.

2019-04-13 - Version 9

Adjusted the brightness, height and visuals of Meridia's Light.

Added a new Setting:
"Only cast Meridia's Light during battles"
Enable this Setting to only display Meridia's Light while in combat.

2019-04-12 - Version 8

Fixed a separate LUA error that could occur upon initial login for some configurations.

2019-04-11 - Version 6, 7

Added a new option to the Settings panel to enable or disable the
Light for all non-Leader/Tank/Healer group members.

Developed a workaround for the issue that caused the Lights to sometimes
linger or fail to change color appropriately.

Fixed an issue that caused the Lights to fail to appear in dungeon
instances within Cyrodiil.

Fixed an issue that caused a LUA error to appear upon logging in for the first time.

2019-04-07 - Version 5

Revised the Light assignment logic to provide more consistent correlation
between the visual effect and the associated player.

2019-04-06 - Version 4

Addressed a second underlying cause of the Lights sometimes shifting away
from players' actual positions in response to a change in cell location.
More fixes to come should the issue persist.

2019-04-06 - Version 3

Extended the skyward reach of Meridia's Lights to be roughly twice as high.

Addressed at least one underlying cause of the Lights sometimes shifting away
from players' actual positions in response to a change in cell location.
More fixes to come should the issue persist -- I'm in the process of testing. <3

Changed the default setting to "OFF" for:
Light of Healers
Light of Tanks
This change will not impact anyone who has explicitly changed this setting at least once.

2019-04-05 - Version 2

Fixed an issue that caused the "Defaults" button on the Settings screen
to reset the Light Brightness and Magnitude to nearly invisible values.

2019-04-03 - Version 1

Initial release.

Exclamation Random Leader Light Shining On My Character

Hi! First time user of the addon.

I get the light of meridia on me when I go to loot something while in a group. But only occasionally. Whether it's a raw material I'm harvesting, or whether I'm looting an urn, the light of meridia will sometimes show on my character for a split second. Also sometimes when I'm mounted.
And this was all while my 1 party member was offline. So it was the white color for the group leader that would shine for a split second on my character. This was all in the first 5 minutes I tested the addon. I haven't yet tested it in any other group settings.

Edit/Update: it's not a huge deal. The random flickering occasionally. It's easy to ignore. I love this addon. Thank you.

I have only one problem with Lights of Meridia:
Every time I reload UI the keybindings for the plugin are changed back to alt-L and alt+P, no matter how many times i change them in controls panel.

It would bo so great if you could look into it
Hi! Thank you for letting me know! I delayed the keybind autoconfiguration for any controls that are not configured to allow other addons, such as Votan's Keybinder, to automatically remap those controls first upon login. This should resolve the issue in those circumstances. Hope it helps! <3

Haven't you heard? Obstables are the new roadblock this season. It's all the rage.

Thank you for letting me know as well -- I actually had thought that I had addressed the issue, but now I will go back and see what may be causing that. I'm guessing it's something related to the average number of people in the group or the number of people leaving/joining the group. I had not seen any performance hits since my last patch, but I rarely run in any large groups, so I am thinking this may be the difference.

I'll keep ya posted! <3
I just spent a little over 2 hours in Cyro in a nearly full group this morning and I saw no permanent loss of FPS. So, the culprit doesn't seem to be group size -- or even Lights of Meridia at all, at least not with my addon and system configuration.

I can look into it further if you can help me identify what other addon must be interfering. My suggestion is to first try running with Lights of Meridia on only -- if it takes only a few minutes for FPS to drop, that should be easy to test. If there's no issue, add groups of addons back one group at a time until you can identify which addon is the problem. If you can find out and let me know, I will check it out and work with the other developer if needed. <3

Thank you for letting me know! I believe that was related to (what seems to be) a failure for certain events to fire properly mixed with the way in which I was assigning each Lighting effect to group members. That should have been resolved as of Update 8. If you could please let me know if you see it again going forward, I would greatly appreciate it. <3

Can understand Baertram's request for the option of only displaying in-combat.

However, please keep the option of displaying out-of-combat also - as I love how it helps find group members while questing/grouping.
...and done! <3

Keep up the great work, especially on this addon please!

Feature request: Let the light of meridia start with an adjustable offset above the player heads (if possible).
Currently it just shines through them.

* Feature request:
Option to only show in combat + maybe a few seconds after combat.
It somehow looks disturbing if the addon is active during normal city visits.
...done! :-) <3
