Ikarus after Bard patch

Uure · 12 Jun 2022

No one complained so probably no one uses Ikarus anymore , but if you wanted to try:

* download it from Curse https://www.curseforge.com/rom/addons/ikarus-unitframes

* unpack it and apply attached patch

PS: the patch contains some tiny UnitHealth related changes too - I don't remember anymore, maybe these are not needed but they do not break anything

(PS: Why I used Ikarus?

* elegant/clean (just portraits and bars, no thick gold round frames etc.)

* very configurable (do you want to see target of the tartget? what should be location/sizes of buff/debuff icons etc.)

* and other - see above link on Curse)

Hello,

Might be nice if you were able to upload it to Chronicles of Arcadia CurseForge.

I assume most of players might have issues with applying such patch manually

There is tutorial for Git: Hosting addons on CurseForge with Git

But it can be also just manually uploaded .zip archive once project is created.

Thank you for your work.

Greetings

Ha! It's already there already!

https://www.curseforge.com/chronicles-of-arcadia/addons/ikarus

Added in 2019 by some strange person called "gmbyte"

(And - this explains the other differences in the diff in the first post above - the diff against the arcadia version is very clean, only bard-related changes.)

So this Arcadia version needs an update to make it work at all after the bard patch. See attachment. Maybe Byte would want to apply it?

PS: It's a bit of a workaround - knight icon is reused, colors are kind of random etc. - but it does make it work.
