Question - Adding named spawn to hud?

[CdnBacon]

Anyone able to help me with adding named mobs up in zone to the bottom of the hud i am using? This is the one i use. its from mmobugs. i just want at the bottom of this ini to have 4 of the closest named to show on my hud. but cannot seem to figure out how or where to add the code.

Attached is the Hud.ini i am using. Anyone able to help me? I'm not good with any of this and can really use a hand.

You dont want to do it. I did this added every named from all zones into my hud and it is a HUGE CPU issue. Went from 2% to 45% for one instance of EQ.

I wrote and use the following. If there is an NPC that you don't want to show, simply /alert add 1 Name of NPC

for this, once copied to your MQ2HUD.ini, you'll want to type /loadhud nearest

if once loaded, it's not where you want it you can use mq2hudmove plugin to move the element around.

/plugin mq2hudmove

/hudmove nearest left 10
will move it left 10 pixels.

The below code puts it left of my XTarget Window in the bottom right hand corner of the UI assuming you're using 1920/1080.

This doesn't cause a CPU issue for me at all.

Please change all

.Name.NotEqual["NULL"]}

to

.ID}!=0

parsing Name is incredibly expensive but more so it will never ever return a string that's actually "NULL" it might return NULL but that's a different thing...
