ARR ~ Add-on Idea's

[AdorraEloom]

I know Yoshi mentioned before that 2.0 will feature the ability to create in-game add-on's.

Anyone planning on making some add-ons? Like damage meters, or mods to the UI, threat meters, loot atlas, ex...

I My self I would not be able to make an add-on as I'm not that talented with that sort of stuff, but I know this community has some very talented people that could probably make some amazing add-on's, would love to see some ideas some people got.

Here is a site that offer's add-ons for other MMO's if anyone wants to see some idea's.

I have an Idea, it'll be difficult, but have the UI completely vanish altogether.

I should try to patent this idea...

You know like have you HP be determined by your screen getting red and well...

nevermind, that was stupid :|

You could do that already with most mmo's, most of the time its built into the game itself, usually its Control + Z. That's what it was in 1.0 if I remember correctly.

1.0 is scroll lock and is not a toggle switch,is a hold switch.

ESO beat you to the punch on this one

Also... I really think that allowing addons really opens a Pandora's Box. I just hope it doesn't go the way WoW did eventually.

If I ever have someone try to gear score me, I'll be telling them where they can shove it.

I agree add-ons could get out of control, but I would assume SE would test them all before approving them. I played wow for a bit after I stopped playing ff11 back in the day and some add-ons were really helpful. My personal favorite was the loot-atlas add-on, it would basically be an icon you click, and when you click it, you can pick any instance in the game from a list and it would open up a window with all the bosses in that instance and what they can drop, showing you stats of items they drop and everything, it even went to the extent where you could right click the item on the list and it would open a small window with your character showing you what your character would look like with that piece of gear.

Yeah, whoever thought of Gearscore needs to be shot. It has nothing to do with your abilities as a player, which often times you can player better than any Gear could make up for!
Secondly, when people you can't get that type of gear until you start doing dungeons and nobody will invite you to a group unless you have a certain Gearscore. And you can't do dungeons by yourself. Your stuck in a vicious cycle of not being able to do anything about it!

exactly I got denied from some linkshells cause my gear wasn't good enough which I think is bull not everyone could afford to double meld or buy double melds.
