Playerlist Disabling?

Zebranky · Joined: 04 Jun 2006 Posts: 415

Quick and dirty release (source only, minimal testing):
http://artemis.mercuric.net/nwnx_nocharlist-20090330.rar

New features:
- Hiding list of classes (hides completely, too, no "Barbarian (0)" junk)
- Disguising all portraits (displays po_nobod02_, the generic shadowed face image, for everyone)

You'll need to comment out the features you don't want before compiling. I do plan to integrate this with nwnx_fixes and use .ini options to toggle the features, but I might as well release this now. Enjoy!

Amazing (hopefully!)

Now I have to figure out what the heck it is you based this off of so it compiles right......

nwnx_fixes. elven already merged it into the Linux SVN version, too. I daresay he is the man. Smile

Got it, thanks.

Looking good, but portrait concealment isn't perfect. It shows the 'temporary' portrait during polymorph, shapechange, shapeshift, familiar possession, etc. (i.e. spider portrait for spider shape). The only thing I could think of to alleviate that off the top of my head is to inject/alter the string in the net-code right before the server sends off the reply to whichever 'BN**' string triggers the response. ...Or inject it into another place which doesn't get overridden. :S

Ah, hrm. I am already doing it very close to the message sending, but there may be a different code path for polymorphed players.

So there is. Fixed in the latest Linux SVN.

Which SVN is it on? Sad

I'm staring at this, http://nwn.virusman.ru/svn/nwnx2-linux/trunk/plugins/ , but I don't see it.

It's part of fixes now.

Any binaries for Windows? I know of some folks who'd love to see this but they're running Windows. And Windows doesn't use a convenient tool like GCC - to compile stuff you actually have to pay for the privilege.

Aack. I come on to check responses today and see the news about it being in fixes, but now the SVN is down. Is somebody mirroring it?

Damn, seems the site from virusman is hacked. When needed i have get the files yesterday via TortoiseSVN. I can also setup an mirror when needed but must have a little bit of advice how to do it. I have also the files on my linux server via svn command for my own nwn server so possible i can also setup a mirror when i get some help how to do it.

Class and portrait hiding appears to be working fine! However, now when I try to close the module, nwserver hangs, runs at 100%, and has to be killed.

I have a request.

Would it be possible to make this plugin optionally Hide DM and/or DM and Players?

I wouldnt mind the ability to have my online status hidden from players, so they wouldnt know if the gaming experience they were experiencing was DM induced, or Hard Coded.

Is it possible to hide online status of individuals completely?

Eg - No name, No Portrait, and No Character info displayed on the server players list from the Character Select screen?

It would be nice if it could be coded to be an optional toggle, of DMS Hidden, DMS/Players Hidden, Players Hidden.

Is the hiding of players (completely, not just masking them) on the character select screen, at all possible? Eg - Displays 5/64 players online, but does not show the players or DMs?
