• Created from scratch with streamlined options and updated compatibility.

~~~

Slightly Improved™ Experience Bar makes it a bit easier to track your progression through out the game.

★ Allow you to set the visibility of the experience bar to Always Show.
★ Add a progression label on top of the bar with current experience, max experience, and percentage.

~~~

Slightly Improved™ add-ons:

Slightly Improved™ Attribute Bars
Slightly Improved™ Experience Bar
Slightly Improved™ Dialogues
Slightly Improved™ Gameplay
Slightly Improved™ Buff Tracking

~~~

Slightly Improved™ add-ons were originally created by L8Knight who kindly allowed me to continue his legacy. None of this would be possible without the help and support of the ESOUI community, and the inspiration from players like you. Thank you.

This will help me figure out if its the event update or the API calls that need fixed.
1. No, this does not cause the problem from my testings.

2. No, this does not appear to fix the problem.

Ok, thanks. TBH, that's not what I expected, but I think it helped me figure out the deal-e-o. I was reading elsewhere that its still possible to gain traditional experience even after level 50. I think that is what is confusing the event callback. I have an idea for a fix and I'll upload it later on today. Thanks for the help!

@L8Knight

Recently your ChangeLog.txt and License.txt have shown up as add-on's. They are also being listed as 'Out of Date' since they don't house any details about the API version. I recommend changing those file types to '.md' or something else that the API system doesn't pickup on.

--- Edit
Forgot to mention, this should up for both SlightlyImprovedExperienceBar and SlightlyImprovedAttributeBars. I don't use your other plugin, but if it has '.txt' files as well, it will list those.

Yea the game automatically loads any .txt files and runs them as addons.. Since these don't have the relevant strings to be addons, they just waste memory and do nothing.

I'd recommend .nfo - as that's an extension someplayers will already have registered to open in a text viewer. Else .rtf will have it work for pretty much everyone, tho loads in the uglier windows apps.

Other addons leave it blank or use that weird .md thing. Dunno what thats for, it's not a standard extension i know of.

Thanks for the report and suggestions. I caught this after posting the zip files. I didn't realize it would read all .txt files. I changed mine to .md and will upload the fixes soon. The .md is for markdown -- a pretty handy formatting language.

Feature Request

Hi,

Would it be possible to see an addition to your add on with the tracking of weapon charges?

I use your add on because it doesn't "break" the stock UI and goes well with how I want my UI to look. But then I came to think that your add on should have a weapon charge tracker added to it positioned in the same way that the Horses stamina bar adds to the player stamina bar.

That feature would be awesome because it wouldn't clutter the UI much and it would allow for easy tracking of the weapons charge.

Hope you get to read this and that you will consider my request, keep up the good work!

Best Regards
-S

To be honest, that sounds like a separate addon, but I like the idea of coping the horse stamina bar.

Been running the latest update - using the show XP option you added (thanks for that).
So can't comment on if the VR bug is fixed, but for my purposes, it is.

However a new bug has cropped up somewhere along the lines:
Now I have the - show in conversations enabled - and it shows, usually.. But it doesn't show in the 1 important part of conversations - the quest complete dialog when you actaully want it to show to see the bar go up.

Seems maybe that options reverse the default game display (as it does display during that dialog by default). Or maybe the addon in general does that, not tested.

Either way, I wanna see it there. Actually i kinda want it on the screen 100% of the time except during 2 cases:
- hide ui (disappears with that correctly atm)
- esc menu open (currently still displays, minor issue - should be able to correct this, as your other addon - improved attribute bars, do correctly hide on that menu).

I'd also like xp displays in my chat log for quest rewards only (mob kills be too spammy). But yea this is probably better for a seperate addon, as I do appreciate the simplicity of yours.

Can you make similar addon for Alliance Point bar + AP gain on screen

Can you make similar addon for Alliance Points bar + AP gain on screen ? I think some pvpers would like it as currently only way to see AP on screen is to use FTC which is no go for me or use CLS to filter only AP thats what I do. I would love to see a bar similar to EXP in the other upper corner with AP

I just turned in a quest to test this and the experience bar displays throughout the turn-in process as I click through my dialog choices. I disappeared for a fraction of a second when the dialog view closed and it went back to the regular game view, but that is the game mechanic and I don't think I can override that. Can you be more specific about when the bar hides for you during a quest completion?

I'll fix the exp bar showing during the system menu. Thanks for reporting that.

Mm it's quite obvious, it's not a time limited thing. While the quest complete dialog is displayed, it just disappears until you hit the button. Perhaps only a VR bug? I'll provide a screenshot shortly to make sure it's clear when it happens (and test again to make sure it wasn't just a 1 time thing, as I haven't been questing much lately, been doing a lot of VR dungeons)

mm yea just completed a couple more quests and it stayed displayed. So probably just a freak 1 time thing, or I got too drunk and hallucinated the whole thing.

Thanks for double checking. I have some changes pending that might help with this if it is a performance type thing. I'm removing my use of the OnUpdate handler in favor of intercepting (and preventing) the OnHide event. Nerd speak, I know. It should be much more efficient and less timing dependent.
