Zone Name Alert  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 1.15
by: dorrino [More]
Description

This addon displays the name of the zone or subzone you're currently entering in the center screen announcement area. The goal is to improve player's immersion in the world and, in the case of Cyrodiil, to improve player's awareness about flagged/unflagged status of the keeps, resources and Imperial City districts in his vicinity.

Features:
  • Displays the name of the subzone you're entering. Examples: "Gold Coast Wayshrine", "Wayrest Market Square", "Alessia Bridge".
  • If subzone name is not available, displays the name of the whole zone. Examples: "The Gold Coast", "Wayrest", "Cyrodiil".
  • Displays the Point of Interest (POI) icons along with the corresponding subzone name. Uses separate icons for dungeons and delves. If POI icon is not available uses the default "scroll" icon. Please refer to the screenshots.
  • While in Cyrodiil, displays the name and the icon for keeps and resources using the color of the faction that it belongs to at the moment. Additionally if the keep or the resource is under attack - displays a modified version of the icon.
  • While in Cyrodiil, immediately notifies you if the keep or the resource gets flagged/unflagged as long as you're in its area. Makes much easier to stay within the defensive tick range and generally be aware about the keep's status.
  • Almost all features of the addon are customizable (1, 2 or no icons, large or small font size, etc) or can be turned off.
Known issues:
  • Does not currently support ESO clients in other languages, but English, to create colored messages in Cyrodiil. Should work fine otherwise.
Notes:
  • If you have something else displaying on your screen in the center screen announcement area (examples: "New quest added", "you are enlightened", etc) when entering a new zone, the name of the zone message from this addon appears after the previous message is cleared with some delay. I've put great efforts to make sure the zone name message is still relevant to your current situation. Please inform me if you think this behavior can be improved.
  • I never tested colored names for Imperial City districts (even though they should work fine), so if anything is off please let me know.
  • I'm a new modder, so there can be bugs. Please report them in the comment section and i'll do my best to fix them.
  • Please feel free to offer suggestions about features you'd like to see in this addon.
If you like this addon, please check out my other addons Poison Tracker and Innocent Blade of Woe(last). Thank you!

Are you sure you installed the latest (1.14) version?
Yes, I update my addons via minion not manually
And nevertheless please update the addon manually and make sure than you run 1.14 version of it.

After manually updating when I downloaded version 1.14 and then I rewrote the version that I had posted error error report did not throw, apparently there was a bug in automatic update via minion client
I'm happy to hear this was resolved.

Fixed this problem. Will be in the next version when Morrowind hits the live servers.
