OverheadXP
I've changed my mentality about how I'm going to do addons from this point forward. I've spoken with a few people at curse and I understand that there is still room for my addons in the community however I've never been a fan of in-game configuration options so from today onward every single one of my addons will not have any in-game configuration. If you want to add or change something please take the time to either learn lua and change it yourself, or come talk to me in IRC, if it is something that I feel would be a great feature I will have no problem adding it, but I'm tired of the nagging remarks and constant "I want wow addons in war" crap.
When the player gains Experience it adds a message to the AlertText that shows,
- Exp: current/max | percent%
- Kills to Level
- RP: current/max | percent%
- Kills to Rank
- /xp prints the above Experience
- /rp prints the above Renown
- Also, the KTR / KTL events are fired any time a player gains experience or renown so you will notice that if you turn in quests or anything like that it will show you how many repetitions to level from your last gain.

Installation Guide
- Exit "Warhammer Online" completely
- Download the mod you want to install
- Make a folder on your desktop called "My Mods"
- Save the .zip/.rar files to this folder.
- If, when you try to download the file, it automatically "opens" it... you need to RIGHT click on the link and "save as..." or "Save Target As".
- Extract the file - commonly known as 'unzipping'
Do this ONE FILE AT A TIME!
- Windows
- Windows XP has a built in ZIP extractor. Double click on the file to open it, inside should be the file or folders needed. Copy these outside to the "My Mods" folder.
- WinRAR: Right click the file, select "Extract Here"
- WinZip: You MUST make sure the option to "Use Folder Names" is CHECKED or it will just extract the files and not make the proper folders how the Authors designed
- Verify your WAR Installation Path
That is where you are running WAR from and THAT is where you need to install your mods.
- Move to the Addon folder
- Open your Warhammer Online folder. (default is C:\Program Files\Warhammer Online\)
- Go into the "Interface" folder.
- Go into the "AddOns" folder.
- In a new window, open the "My Mods" folder.
- The "My Mods" folder should have the "Addonname" folder in it.
- Move the "Addonname" folder into the "AddOns" folder
- Start Warhammer Online
Translations
When you download a mod, please be sure that the mod is compatible with your translation of WAR. Some mods only work on the US versions, while some only work on some of the various European versions. These variations are called "Localizations".
