OverlayPlugin 0.16.0
This release brings a bunch of new features and hopefully a few fixes for long standing issues.
- A huge overhaul to make the plugin more stable and disabling actually possible. Before, if you disabled the plugin, the config UI disappeared but parts of it stayed active until you closed ACT. This caused a bunch of issues if you tried to re-enable OverlayPlugin or in a few other edge cases.
- Made the WSServer tab a lot easier to use (integration with ngrok.com which makes it possible to share your overlay without portforwarding, SSL issues, etc.).
- Improved rendering of embedded overlays (this will make Cactbot's tab a lot smoother).
- Added backups for OverlayPlugin's config. OverlayPlugin will automatically restore a backup if the current config file is corrupted. This should fix issues where all overlays are lost. This will not fix issues where overlay settings (i.e. Kagerou's config or MopiMopi's config) are lost. That is an issue with Chromium's cache which is more complicated.
- OverlayPlugin will now automatically re-download CEF files if some are missing (this will fix
File not found
errors. - The updater now retries overwriting files several time before giving up. This should make Cactbot updates more reliable.
- Updated
PartyChanged
event implementation to fix some cases where invalid data was reported. - Implemented
BroadcastMessage
event andbroadcast
handler. This allows overlays to talk to each other. Read the docs for more details. - If you don't have the MS Visual Studio C++ Redistributable installed, OverlayPlugin will now successfully download and install it (the download failed before because the download library required the MSVCRT, whoops).
- OverlayPlugin now uses the correct 5.2 signatures for KR players.
- Updated Chinese translations (@ShadyWhite)

OverlayPlugin 0.14.0

Event Settings
tab. They weren't applied nor saved. - Added new
getCombatants
callback which gives overlays access to more data about currently available combatants (mobs & players) (@valarnin) - Added a notice for new users on the General tab which hopefully helps people that follow outdated guides. The notice is only visible as long as the user has no overlays.

OverlayPlugin 0.13.5
- Fixed enmity memory signatures for 5.2, 5.1 and 5.0. Enmity overlays should work again. (thanks @qitana and @quisquous)
Enmity values in 5.2 might look off since there's no absolute enmity value anymore. What you see is based off the relative enmity. - Changed the way memory scanning works to avoid CPU spikes when the memory signatures break.
- Implemented ACT's new restart prompt in the updater.
- Updated French translation (@mooondark)

Some notes for new users:
- Make sure you disable the old OverlayPlugin and restart ACT before adding this plugin.
- Don't overwrite the old OverlayPlugin with this one, extract the archive into a new folder.
- If you get a message complaining about a missing
CefSharp.Core.dll
, make sure you have the MS Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2019 installed. - Make sure no
OverlayPlugin*.dll
orHtmlRenderer.dll
files are in your ACT folder.
