Combat Reticle Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 2.1.1

by: Aetheron, calia1120

WHAT's NEW:

Version 2.0 adds two new reticle modes and reticle theme modules. The previous "combat mode" reticle has been split into three distinct sub-modes: 1) in combat with no target under reticle, 2) in combat with hostile target under reticle, and 3) in-combat with friendly target under reticle. You can configure the reticle to highlight enemies one way and friendly units another while in combat.

Reticle theme modules are something that have been in the works for a long time now. Basically it means that other add-on developers can create custom reticle themes (colors, modes, and even icons) and publish them separately from Combat Retilce. When installed, these theme modules are detected by Combat Reticle and are mad available in the theme selection menu. I plan on creating documentation on how this is done soon, and I will release an example custom theme module at the same time.

Important Because of how reticle themes are now handled, it was necessary to break compatibility with previous combat reticle settings. This means your old settings won't work with the new version. In fact, I recommend that you remove the old settings by deleting the "CombatReticle.lua" file from the "Documents/Elder Scrolls Online/live/SavedVariables" directory in your home directory (Windows) before installing the new version.

WHAT IT IS:
Combat Reticle is a graphical add-on that greatly enhances visibility and utility of the on-screen reticle for targeting and interacting with items, NPCs, and other players in the game world. The primary goal is to make the reticle more visible during combat to improve targeting accuracy. This is accomplished by allowing the user to customize the reticle image, color, opacity, scale, rotation, and animation mode. A customized reticle can either use a single image or include an addition overlay image with it's own independent visual settings. Considering the large number of included reticle images (73 and counting), and the fact that there are nine distinct reticle modes that can be used and configured, the result is a nearly infinite number of reticle configuration possibilities! (for the math geeks, it's over 1e300 combinations!)

Combat Reticle does not acquire or display any target data. This is partly due to performance considerations in large PvP battles, and partly due to a preference for a minimal UI. If you would like to have target data, it's possible that Combat Reticle could coexist with another reticle add-on. Compatibility with Rainbow Reticle is confirmed. I have not tested with others, though I plan to. If you use other target information reticle addons, though please report any issues you encounter to help improve this. Thanks! - Calia

FEATURES:

Eleven configurable reticle modes (including four stealth/disguised modes)
Customize reticle image, color, opacity, scale, rotation, and animation
Overlay mode for composite reticles
73 available reticle images to choose from
Rotation includes plain and pendulum modes
Animation can modulate opacity, saturation, or scale
Interaction mode can indicate empty/blocked items
A variety of pre-made themes for easy and fast configuration
Ten quick slots to store and retrieve configuration sets
Reticle brightness control (with hot-key mapping)

Anti-flicker reticle mode filter
High-performance implementation, CPU-intensive features can be disabled
Comprehensive configuration panel with "live" reticle preview

RETICLE MODES
Combat Reticle supports nine specific reticle modes. Each mode can be customized, disabled, or set to game default (i.e. show standard ESO reticle). Stealth modes utilize the default ESO "stealth eye" as the base reticle, but an overlay image can be used with full customization options. The reticle modes are:

Interactive - An interactable item or friendly NPC/player character is targeted.
Target Hostile - An enemy (hostile) mob, NPC, or player character is targeted and range is close enough to activate skill bar. Like the skill bar, this does not always mean that the target is close enough to attack.
Target Neutral - An attackable neutral mob is targeted and range is similar to "target hostile" mode (skill bar is not shown until unit is attacked).
Combat - Player is engaged in combat.
Combat (hostile target) - Player is engaged in combat, reticle is over a hostile.
Combat (friendly target) - Player is engaged in combat, reticle is over a friendly.
Normal - Default reticle mode (i.e. none of the above modes and not stealthed or disguised).
Stealth Interactive - Player is hidden and an item or friendly NPC/player character is targeted and can be interacted with.
Stealth Target Hostile - Player is hidden and an enemy (hostile) mob, NPC, or player character is targeted.
Stealth Target Neutral - Player is hidden and an attackable neutral mob is targeted.
Stealth Combat - Player is hidden and engaged in combat.
Stealth Normal - Player is hidden and no other reticle modes apply.

DETAILED DOCUMENTATION
Please refer to the "readme.rtf" file located in the "docs" folder of the add-on for complete, detailed information on how to use and configure Combat Reticle.

Question: Is there a way to make the reticle visible all the time?

I'm new to the game and just discovered the reticle is meant to be on all the time.. I truly do not understand this.. bug? The mod works as intended for one character and for the one with the issue, the reticle when [normal] flashes, then disappears. It works as intended for interactive, stealth, and combat. But is completely missing with normal.

Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, I've not seen what you describe - check the combat reticle settings for normal mode and make sure it's enabled and turn off any advanced features. Do you have any other add-ons installed? If so, try disabling all but combat reticle and give it a try. Post up what you find out.

-A

It's Wykkyd's Full Immersion causing the issue, not sure how since I had the same settings across two characters, but the reticle was set to "smart hide" which is why it was visible sometimes and not others.

Thanks for your help!

I think even if the reticle was moved (which I don't think I can do), the actual aim point wouldn't move which would make it hard to... aim.

Are you referring to when you're interacting with things? If so, there are some options for interactions a bit further down in the settings menu. I'm on mobile, so can't grab a screen clip at the moment.

Not easily, and this would complicate targeting and a handful of other functions.

Thanks again for the addon.

Hi, Glad you're enjoying my add-on! What you're requesting is indeed possible, but my concern is with the proliferation of reticle modes and the ensuing configuration complexity (it's quite bewildering already!). I've been testing an un-published version of Combat Reticle (2.0) that adds two more combat mode (hostile/friendly targets), so now I'm up to 12 reticle modes. Adding a "heat" mode would impact not just "normal" mode but probably also interactive and stealth modes. I wonder if it might be cleaner to use a separate add-on that would place a heat indicator anywhere on-screen you want it - including right nest to the reticle (like stendar's buff/debuff)? This way you would see it regardless of reticle mode. You might bounce this off the add-on request forum, if you haven't already.

I really like the add-on, but I am trying to figure out if there is a feature I am missing, or if it's just not included... When you use the regular reticle in the game, the reticle changes when you hover over a hostile target, regardless of if you are in combat. I cannot seem to find this feature in the Combat Reticle add on.

To clarify when I mean... When the "Combat" mode is active, is there a way to have a distinction when I am targeting a hostile target with the reticle, and when I am not? Example would be for Dolmens or large group raids. A lot is going on, and sometimes it's hard to tell if you have your reticle on the enemy target or not... I would like the animation/color to change while in "combat mode" to tell me that my target is locked... Is this possible?
Thank you!

Hey, no, you're not missing anything - it doesn't have that feature currently. I thought about it early on, but decided I already had so many modes that it might be overkill (and make the configuration even more complex). I like the idea though. I guess in combat, you would have a default combat reticle, then optional hostile and neutral target reticles. I would need to add two more modes with configurations. Or maybe another option would be to use the other existing reticle modes in combat (normal, neutral, and hostile target), then add a third combat texture overlay (like a red bracket, for example) when in combat. Let me think about it...

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: error

Ah, yes I see the error now after removing all my other addons. I should have tried that fisrt, but I was guessing it was an interaction issue with the translation mod. I'll try to debug this, but libaddonmenu isn't my code so it might take me a while. Thanks for your patience!

It includes an executable (flagged as dangerous by my anti-virus software) and likely makes modifications to directly to ESO files. So, I won't be testing it out! I recommend uninstalling all add-ons, then re-install combat reticle first to see if that works. I strongly suspect that the translation add-on is conflicting somehow with libaddonmenu. (I'm not sure who maintains libaddonmenu these days.)

I'm not really sure what could be causing this as no one else has reported such an issue. A lot of other add-ons use the same libaddon menu, so I doubt that's really the issue. Could you send me a link to the language add-on you're using and I will try to recreate the issue on my system.

Does it happen all the time? Are all of your addons up to date? Could you try disabling any other addons and seeing if this goes away? If so, turn them back on one-by-one until you get the error again.
