CroakWatch - Watching things croak, so you don't have to....and more.

View attachment 77668

CroakWatch is a mob camp manager for Live and EMU. Point it at a zone and it builds your hunt list, then watches every camp for you: who's up, when the next one's due, and what's been dropping. It also learns. Respawn timers self-correct to whatever server you're on by watching the real kill cycle. Live "is it up?" detection + spawn-window...

v0.36

CroakWatch v0.36 - first public release

A named-mob camp manager for EQ (Live + EMU): builds your roster from the zone Hunter achievement (or add mobs manually), shows live UP status, learns each named's respawn timer per-server, tracks placeholder ratios, and tallies loot.

What you get in this first release:

• Live UP / spawn-window alerts - hear the named's name spoken aloud (TTS) the moment it pops, plus a chime when a spawn window opens.
• Self-learning...

v0.37

CroakWatch v0.37 - Zone Watch

Know when your camp might get company. CroakWatch now keeps an eye on who else is in your zone.

• Who's in your zone - a count of other players (not counting your group) right under the zone name, color-coded: grey when it's clear, amber when a few are around, red when it's crowded.
• See exactly who - hover the count for the list: each player's name, level, class, and guild.
• Heads-up on arrivals - the moment a new...

v0.38

CroakWatch v0.38 - Camp Watch

Don't miss what matters while you camp - especially AFK. CroakWatch now keeps a running feed of what's happening around you.

• One feed for everything - a new "Camp Watch" panel at the bottom logs, with timestamps: players entering your zone, all OOC, and tells sent to you. Color-coded so tells and OOC are easy to tell apart at a glance.
• It blinks when something lands - the Camp Watch header pulses (even while...

v0.41

CroakWatch v0.41 - Camp Watch tidy-up

• Clear button - clear the Camp Watch feed any time (open the section and hit Clear). Handy if you leave CroakWatch running across camps.
• Auto-clears when you change zones - the feed wipes itself on a zone change, so you're not staring at the last camp's chatter.
• Under the hood: a more efficient player scan for Zone/Camp Watch (no visible change).

v0.42

CroakWatch v0.42 - quality-of-life fixes

• Remove a mob - the Edit window now has a Remove button, so you can delete a named you added (or no longer want to track).
• Clearer when there's nothing to track - open CroakWatch in a zone with no Hunter achievement and it now tells you that's why the list is empty, instead of looking broken.
• Cleaner first launch - no more harmless-but-confusing error message the first time you open the script.

I made a few changes as I had missed some things, in this example I have Emperor Crush, who is NOT in ACH status, so must be manually added. Clicking Edit, you can Remove, add a PH manually or play with timing if you wish. It will eventually learn the PH on its own.​ The X button Closes the script (and window), under the X you can see a _ button, this is the minimizer to a mini icon. The script still runs and gives you info on nameds up in MQ console and in the Mini Icon.​ By Camp Watch section you see a speaker at the end and a Sounds checkbox at the top, those are separate sound choices. The speaker is a button for Camp Watch.​ The script is meant to be used (and started) in a zone with Hunter Named mobs to get them on your list, if you open it in PoK for example, it will be empty. I fixed a error saying failed to execute a config creation. It was a non-error that showed on first time use, if you downloaded before and saw it, not a 'real' error, but it should be gone now.​

Please feel free to tell me if i screwed up somewhere..happy to try to improve it. Still have some ideas I haven't figured out how to implement.

v0.43

CroakWatch v0.43 - smarter camp tracking

• Named with multiple spawn spots are now handled properly. If a named can pop in a few different nearby spots, CroakWatch learns all of them (you'll see an @x2, @x3 badge) instead of getting stuck watching just the first one.
• More accurate timers at messy camps. If a placeholder shares its name with common trash mobs elsewhere in the zone, killing that trash no longer throws off the...
