O.o looks like help can have Clickable fields
this works fine:
Code:
This will open doors to a lot more things that can be done with it.<a href='cmd:bind numpadenter "targetname a$$targetname b"'><b><color yellow>BindTest</color></b></a>
And as far as opening up power information windows, I still feel that it is jsut an undocumented command. Found this command today reading through the game texts file:
set_powerinfo_class
which a google and paragonwiki search came up with nil results.
It is used to open the window where you choose what class you want to look at powers for. (Right click a power->Info->Detailed Info then click the AT type "Brawl as used by a Level 27 Scrapper")
With that said, all of the other commands should just be a matter of finding them.
Helping andsoitallbegins with improving -- no, make that revolutionizing -- my previous BadgeReporter has been great. The ideas for streamlining and organizing she had have worked wonderfully and the idea for using the Help.txt file is brilliant! And really, my input has been just minor help and testing, it's all been her knowledge and ability that's taken it this far.
Using the new BadgeReporter along with the BadgeHelp lets you do just about every aspect of Badge Hunting without ever leaving the game. You can find the badges you have and don't have with BadgeReporter, then open up BadgeHelp and see exactly how to get the ones you don't have. You can even leave the BadgeHelp window active while tracking down the requirements.
Unfortunately, it's still bound by the limitations of the customizable GUI elements we can use (PopMenu and Help) otherwise this could be a much more powerful combination.
True, it's not as robust as using a website for it, but you can get all the badges available to you just using these two tools without ever leaving the game. Toss in Vidiot maps and you'll be a badge hunting fiend.

ProTip: The badges in the menu are listed in the exact same order as Vidiot uses. So Number 1 on the list is the Number 1 on your map |

Badge Reporter has been updated with the Pre-i19 info that has been provided.
Badge Reporter Classic found here:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/rx8y3s...geReporter.mnu
Save to "C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\Data\Texts\English\Menus\BadgeReporter.mnu"
Open with /popmenu BadgeReporter
Badge Reporter Extended Found here:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/vw63bo...erExtended.mnu
Save to "C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\Data\Texts\English\Menus\BadgeReporterExten ded.mnu"
Open with /popmenu BadgeReporterExtended
Badge Help found here:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/a1m9ol1qqmz9q4l/help.txt
Save to "C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\Data\Texts\English\Help\Help.txt"
open with /Help or Menu>Help
Changes:
Updated a lot of redside badge text for multiple badges.
Added i19 badges
Reordered menus to all match up in each version
Added dividers in Exploration badges to seperate ones needed for teleport beacons from the rest
Total rewrite of Database and Database front end that builds these menus/help file to make future changes much easier/quicker
Difference between versions:
Badge Reporter classic only contains info on rather or not you have the badge. Used for quick checking of badges left unobtained.
Badge Reporter Extended contains all the info and binds needed to find the badges all in a popmenu
Badge Help has all the same info and binds as Extended in the help menu (/help). It is in a window that can remain open as you are looking.
Notes and Limitations:
Auto target in Badge Reporter Extended are constrained to a single possible target. Currently it targets the lowest level mob needed for the badge (minion class in most instances)
Auto target in Badge Help targets all possible targets for the badge, starting with minion level and going through boss level.
Prisioner Lts and Boss are not provided for auto target (far to many to bind)
Clicking any power name or power description (ie. Accolade powers) will send yourself a tell with the power name that you can click on to read about the power.
Clicking any requirement for a badge will send you a tell describing how to find (usefull for not requiring the menu to be open all the time)
Clicking Email or Global Name under support will prepare the command line for an ingame message for any bugs that may be found
Badge Help limited to a simple single Main Menu system. Sub menus are simply not an option.
Praetorian Achievement Badges are listed seperately from Red/Blue side Achievements for the same requirements. (ie. Lead-Follower and Tourist/Visitor - Collect 10 Badges) These are two unique badges in game, and therefore not possible to collect both badges. Badge Reporter will still report completeion on both if requirements are met on either side. Same is also true for Accolades (Received the Atlas Medallion/Atlas Shrugged and Ex-Marshal/Marshal)
ToDo:
Need a lot of information for multiple badges that is not currently listed on other websites. A list of all info that is needed is located here if you wish to help. Gathered info will be provided to Badge-Hunter and Paragonwiki to update thier websites as well.
http://www.mediafire.com/file/jmfa0d...x/NeedInfo.txt
Future hopeful changes:
Loading external non-game images into Badge-Help.
Loading powerinfo directly from popmenu/help
Set waypoints directly from popmenu/help
Supergroup badges.
Dynamically loading badge text in menus

Much of the Needed Info seems to be available over here in the closed beta board. If you can't access it I could copy/paste it for you or something.

[450-600-300-5600] Justiciar (RVAllVillains) Fallen Justicar

[750-200-100-5500] Dimensional Explorer (DJ_Dimensional_Explorer) Dimensional Plunderer
Firebase Zulu has classified you as A.W.O.L., but they wouldn't welcome you if you showed up, either.
[750-400-100-5100] Intern (DJ_Intern) Wage Slave
You wouldn't make it past the guards at Portal Corps nowadays, but at least you never have to make the coffee anymore.
[750-500-100-5100] Law Enforcer (DJ_Law_Enforcement) Dirty Cop
The Paragon Police Department has severed its ties with you now that you're a villain.
[750-700-100-5100] Shop Keeper (DJ_Shop_Keeper) Price Gouger
You know better than to work retail in the Rogue Isles.
Updated DB with the provided info here. I do not have access to the closed Beta thread though 
. TheUnamedOne also has copies of the DB, hopefully he can, otherwise would need the info sent (out of forums email maybe? depending on length of info)
Also turned back on Field Crafter...... apparently I turned it off in the latest build for some reason.
New build will be released soon with all updated info
----
Also have the ability to make a generic installer for MNU files. Anyone could use it for their menus, and would make installations easier for other people. Is there a need for that, or are people comfortable enough with the way things are now
Lets see if this works.

Closed beta was done on the Going rogue Beta servers, but Test now has all of the same assets, and those are the names the game gives the .texture files. Of note the badges with tin mage in the name are actually for the Apex TF.

I19 Badge Guide
Triumph: White Succubus: 50 Ill/Emp/PF Snow Globe: 50 Ice/FF/Ice Strobe: 50 PB Shi Otomi: 50 Ninja/Ninjistu/GW Stalker My other characters
I knew where the Beta one was but didn't see that one, which seems to be slightly more complete, since at the very least it includes the 1000 badge count badge.
Just got finished up with the last major non content update to BadgeHelp.
New features are included images of exploration badge and history plaque locations directly from help. These are loaded from custom texture files that are included in the new BadgeHelp download. They are to be dropped directly into your Data folder.
Download here:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/6sx6cb.../BadgeHelp.zip
Notes:
Displaying Images in the help window depends on the size of the window. The Help window needs a size of .8174 minimum. Health and Help are linked windows, so in order to change the size of help, you must resize the health window. The first menu option under BadgeHelp is "Badge Reporter Info". The bottom link will resize the window for you. You can also do it manually by running this:
Code:
These do not overwrite any textures in game, as they are unique textures completely for the use of BadgeHelp only. /window_scale Health .8174
If you copied them to the correct location, they should all be listed under "Program files\City of Heroes\Data\texture_library\BadgeReporter\xxxxx.te xture"
This is a non content update, features only.
The newest update is extremely impressive, great work.
aren't those the screenshots from badge-hunter?

Might wanna add "Ice Cold" (or is it Cold As Ice?), for defeating the new EB in the new Winter Event mission. It's on Test right now, or would you rather wait for it to be on Live?
-STEELE =)
Allied to all sides so that no matter what, I'll come out on top!
Oh, and Crimson demands you play this arc-> Twisted Knives (MA Arc #397769)
I was getting a false negative on the new Boomtown exploration badges, when i checked the .mnu i found that the unlock flags were missing the word tour, i.e. Boomtown5 instead of Boomtowntour5.
I am at work right now and this thread caught my eye.
I like badges, but never let them take over what I intend to do each time I log on.
With that being said I have one toon that I actually DO "try" to get as many badges as I can possibly get with (in reason) and I might try this with that toon.
As I have seen replied before......
it looks like applause is in order for a solid effort on a tricky/sticky topic in the game

Want to wait for it to be live, or at least name to be confirmed. It's currently listed under Winter Holiday Events (in new build) but with MissingInfo as a name. I don't really care to list the badges until I have most of the info avail for them. As it is now though, have about 95% of all the badge info. Most of the info I do not have (besides detailed how to find new exploration badges) are Praetorian only side badges.

[200-100-100-5450] - Updated (musta skipped it)
[200-100-100-5750] - Definitely missed that one
[200-100-400-5400] - Figured the Villain text would have been different with such a difference in the Badge Names.
All 3 of those updated in the DB though. Next release will have em updated in the Menus as well.
I noticed today that Patroller::Criminal and Pratroller (Praetorian Origin)::Criminal have separate entries despite being alternate versions of the same badge.
I have to say I'm quite impressed by your ingenuity, keep up the great work.
