Err, I'm sorry. Was my post offensive? I am sorry if it was, as that was not my intention...
E-GADS!! Now you are waving your offensive post-erior at me? Your intentions are seen...you and your Sexy Edna Mode glasses.... Don;t Blue Screen me to death !
I think Redfrog’s response was meant as a joke.
A Joke, like a Jab can puncture your funny bone or other bones and leave you responseless...Sir Knight of Jab, you Ctrl-Alt-Del me.. I die, I perish. I fall to the abyss of MQ despair, I /end.

I'm getting way too silly.. I'll stop now.. /giggle. I even snorted in laughter.
 
First, this is fantastic! Thank you so much for building it and sharing with the community!

I noticed an issue in Cobalt Scar (CoV) that Ol' Grinnin Finley doesn't highlight yellow when he spawns. It tracks the completed killl correctly, but I think there's an issue with the name that it's not showing up highlighted when it's up.
 
There is some weird error though between Ninjadvloo, DPSAdv, and Hunterhud. I keep getting Sharedlist- mark as keep spamming down my MQ window every kill.
 
They messed with achievements for this recent test patch and I believe it broke HunterHUD.

shared list is entirely ninjadvloot.inc

if you are a on live,test or tlp servers use lootly adn turn off looton in your kiss ini
 
After the game patch today, I am getting error messages and some client crashes:

Yep, broken for me too. Runing /mqoverlay resume doesn't fix it
 
For the record, I cannot play without hunterhud running anymore... I have become so reliant it is crazy. Can't believe I had to search before!!! Best QOL addition ever.

Agree 100%. Had to turn it off due to crashes last night and felt lost.

Sic just informed me that we all just need to update MQ and this gets fixed! Had to close and reopen the launcher to get the update option.
 
yes, the achievements have been fixed, so just update mq and it should all be good.
 
The original Eastern Waste Hunter Achieve doesn't show up - it shows Hunter of The Eastern Wastes instead of Hunter of Eastern Wastes - I'd add it in myself except I'm not 100% sure where some of the parameters are coming from =)
 
This is probably my favorite Lua and has been for some time.

I was wondering if we could get a toggle (probably default to off) that should show distance from spawned rares? (similar to group/xtar window)
 
Its either not working or crashing MQ :(
are you sure? you only just downloaded the test version update.

I would restart your computer -> run RG patcher -> try again

if not, please say what zone specifically is causing you to crash
 
Hunterhud doesnt work for Sleepers Tomb (CoV). Can't figure out why.

It does show checkmarks though. Just not if a named is up.
 
Any update on this for Night of Shadows?
Not sure if all the mob names are right with the ' or ` but this should take care of the zones
Code:
[851] = 3008500, --Hunter of Ruins of Shadow Haven      Ruins of Shadow Haven=shadowhaventwo
   [852] = 3008300, --Hunter of Shar Vahl, Divided         Shar Vahl, Divided=sharvahltwo
    [853] = 3008400, --Hunter of Paludal Depths             Paludal Depths=paludaltwo
    [854] = 3008200, --Hunter of Shadeweaver's Tangle       Shadeweaver's Tangle=shadeweavertwo
 
adding the rest of the zones to Cannnonballdex list.

Code:
    [851] = 3008500, --Hunter of Ruins of Shadow Haven      Ruins of Shadow Haven=shadowhaventwo
    [852] = 3008300, --Hunter of Shar Vahl, Divided         Shar Vahl, Divided=sharvahltwo

    [854] = 3008200, --Hunter of Shadeweaver's Tangle       Shadeweaver's Tangle=shadeweavertwo
    [855] = 3008700, --Hunter of  Darklight Caverns         Darklight Caverns=darklightcaverns
    [856] = 3008600, --Hunter of Deepshade                  Deepshade=deepshade
    [857] = 3008100, --Hunter of Firefall Pass              Firefall Pass=firefallpass

I wasn't sure if these were speshul :)

This is still one of my favorite Lua's, thanks again for making this and sharing it.

I was wondering if it would be possible to add startup arguments so toggling spawned/missing hunts or even starting minimized could be done with /Lua run hunterhud [whatever]?

I ended up showing the title bar so I could minimize the box. But not sure what the toggling spawned is about. :)
 
When in Sepulcher East or West, the HUD needs to read as if you were in Sepulcher of Order, if possible. They combined the hunters for these three zones into one Achieve.

Under zone map. This will just show all the named in any of the three zones.
Code:
[734] = 1973360, --Hunter of The Sepulcher of Order     Sepulcher of Order East=eastseupulcher
[735] = 1973360, --Hunter of The Suplucher of Order     Sepulcher of Order West=westsepulcher
 
Too busy, too lazy to figure it out, but for some reason this bugger doesn't register in the hud:
1677280257750.png
 
No it does not register. After killing and it respawned no recognizo, nor after unloading and reloading the Lua. My mq2hud picks it up as a named, but hunterhud does not see it.
 
I'm sus it's the comma in the name.

Edit: I've found several mobs that don't register with the HUD, due to commas in the name.

I noticed Gem Collector in Crystal Caverns doesnt light up when spawned. possibly because the C is not capitalized
 
The Lua needs a correction added for "Hunter of Old City of Dranik" in the SOD expansion, as it's not populating at all. The HUD populates with "City of Dranik" I presume we need a zoneMap entry for it, but I don't know where you're getting the two numerics you populate your table with in the Lua.

Edit=->

Solution is to add this line into the table, at about line 65, between [333] for hunter of sewers of draink and [700] hunter of the feerrott:

[474] = 1647460, --Hunter of Old city of Dranik Scar City of Dranik=olddranik

The numbers are the zoneid and the achievement ID. reload the Lua and it works correctly now.
