Hey everyone,

I'm excited to share with you a game overlay I developed for ArcheRage! My nickname is Xizde, and I'm a software engineer.
The overlay is a meter that shows damage and healing done by players from game logs (which is allowed by the game admins).

First of all, you have to enable the combat log ingame (This log will be at your Documents folder userprofile/Documents/Archerage/Combat.log):

I created the overlay using the Python language and PyQt5 to create the interface. While this kind of overlay exists in other games, I was inspired by the WOW's damage meter overlay and the "scoreboard" created by Oturan (https://na.archerage.to/forums/threads/archerage-scoreboard.11123/).
However, I wanted to make a near-real-time version as an overlay that players could use to monitor data during PVP/PVE battles.

With my overlay, you can customize a lot of settings, including:

  • Log file path: the path of the file.
  • Overlay width and height: Dimensions of the overlay main window.
  • Overlay opacity: (0 - 100%) If you want it fully transparent, just set it to 0.
  • Log type: Switch between Damage and Heal.
  • Target Name: Define a target to see damage/healing dealt to them.
  • Minutes ago: Time-based log watch.
  • Log color: The color of the overlay player/damage list.
Here some images from the overlay:

This is the setting window, where you can configure everything.

Here i costumized the log color by changing it at setting window.

The overlay also has a minimize button that hides the entire UI of the overlay, leaving only a button to maximize it back.

I've included some screenshots of the overlay in action so you can get a better sense of what it looks like. Feel free to check it out and let me know what you think!

Hey guys, just a quick update.
To run the aplication you need to edit the config.json file, and add your computer Combat.log path as i mention, but you need to use double "\\" on the path.

The path should be something like that:
"C:\\Users\\Documentos\\ArcheRage\\Combat.log"

The config file is json and you cant have a string with \ in json..
 
Hei guys, its me again XD!

In this release we added new features to the overlay based on community feedback.

  • 🔥FEATURE🔥: Change overlay window position: we add the possibility to change the position of the overlay, the overlay will store this info in the config file and use it on next execution, so it will open in same location.
  • 🔥FEATURE🔥: A set time button and config: with this feature users are enabled to set a timer that will be used to filter events, we add a button on main window for this so you can quick set it up and filter the events. (Can be usefull when u want to filter based on specific time instead of 10 minutes ago for example).

Download the latest version from the project github page: https://github.com/xizde/archerage-damage-heal-meter-overlay/releases/tag/v0.0.4
