Is this project dead? Or is someone working on an I20 version?

If noone is updating, hopefully i can get a hint on what texteditor you use to keep track of the nesting easily. Personally i like the base badge reporter and i really wouldnt mind an update.

I used TextPad5 when editing these .mnu files.

I use EditPad Pro. Not only can it keep track of nesting, but it color-codes common programming syntax to make it easy to read overall as well. The feature I used a lot was being able to have multiple files open at once and using the Find/Replace option to change commands or links on web-pages much faster than doing it all manually. I don't remember where I got mine for free. Maybe an older version was free or at least much cheaper. I can't recall. I just know I didn't pay $50 for it. haha

Regardless, there is still a free version called EditPad Lite anyway. Supposedly they have the same features, but I can't say for sure what the differences are.

haven't visited this thread for a bit. Project is not dead per say, on back burner for a minute as I am working on a very big project. DB has been updated with the new badges, just a new version has not been put out. New project encompasses this project as well as some of my side things and new stuff. It is currently 55% completed. I expect to release it in the next 2-3 months at the most, hopefully more like 4-5 weeks. Currently going through the process of data mining/data verification, which is time consuming at best. If they end up releasing a large number of badges all at once (i18, i19) then I will put the other on hold and get this part of it back up to date. For now, as others have suggested, edit the files or keep separate track of the i20 badges.

I *LOVE* The badge reporter classic, it's such a handy glance-at tool to let me know what badges I need to work on. I don't usually need all of the extra info that the more in depth versions of this program have (and am somewhat worried about the crashing I read about in a previous post to want to risk using it).

The classic is perfect!

I eagerly await it's next installment.

P.S. Great job, kudos.

Well I installed this as described and the beginning, and as is the usual case for me in these sorts of things it doesn't work. I created the texts and English files manually, so that was probably it. I really suck at these sorts of things. If someone could give me a better way to do this I would appreciate it.

/pow_exec_name Resurrect

As an avid (if somewhat amateur) .mnu file dabbler, I decided to see if I could update TUN's opus for issue 20.5. After a bit of searching around, I unearthed badges.bin and worked in all the latest badges.

I did reorganize the listing structure a bit for my own tastes - however, the essential structure is unchanged. I hope this fills in acceptably until @MG completes her other work.

the /help not working now , because /help is to speak in Help channel , so ... any idea to open badge report help in game ?

I'm glad people are working on this. This has been a handy tool for me for the past few months since I discovered it. Is there anything being done for the new badges just released in I21? If I can figure it out, I'll help update if needed...

Thanks for the update Rugiel . And heads up the Halloween Event launched today has 3 new badges .

I just found this, and i have to add my sincere thanks for this amazing tool. Your hard work is very much appreciated. You rock, dude.

Badging just got a zillion times more fun

EDIT: I can't get the AccoladePowerCollector to work, however. I did exactly the same thing as i did for BadgeReporter and GiantMonsterReporter, and I getno error messages, but my bind key doesn't produce the menu.

I recently downloaded the AccoladePowerCollector and it seems to be working fine.

Hm, I must be doing something wrong. I did this:

1. Downloaded the AccoladePowerCollector zip to the same folder as the other two.
2. Unzipped it to the same folder.
3. Started up CoH.
4. Typed this into chat /bind i "AccoladePowerCollectorReporter"
5. Quit to desktop.
6. Started up CoH again.
7. Selected my toon, and hit i.

Nothing happened. The othert two work.

I'm hoping i've missed something stupidly obvious. Any ideas?

Eco

EDIT: I see what I've done now. I managed to make not one, but TWO stupidly obvious mistakes! Missing out the 'PopMenu' bit AND adding 'Reporter' needlessly! Doh.

You don't need steps 5 and 6.

Yes, those would cause it to fail.

I thought steps 5 and 6 were needed as the doodad only loads the PopMenu files at startup?

You loaded the popmenu at step 3, and you can access that at step 4. At step 4 you could have just typed:

/popmenu AccoladePowerCollector

And it would have worked. If you had started CoH before step 2, then you would have needed a restart.

Ah! Penny drops! I'm a bit thick when it comes to stuff like this. It's all working great now.

Does the extrnded version of the BadgeReporter csise crashes as mentioned, or is it stable now? I quite fancy the idea of the badges giving me tips on what to do for them in game.

As far as I know, the extended one doesn't crash. Lately I've been testing some massive popmenus, but a properly formed popmenu will not crash the game.

Hm. I can't get BadgeReporrterExtended to work following the same method as for the others, and Andsoitallbegins isn't accepting private messages. Anyone have any advice on how to activate it?

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I was trying to find help in the Help channel around suggestions for my Empathy/Earth defender. I had currently set the F1-F8 keys to heal teammates which was very clunky and left me having to bind the rest of the Empathy powers to other keys. Some awesome person in the game told me about the Pop Menus and I found your thread in the forums.

I'm about to try out the .mnu file I created using the Numpad keys instead and just downloaded and "installed" the Classic Badge Reporter. As a badger, this is awesome. If it still works, I'll try the extended version next. Thanks for the many hours you put into this and happy gaming! 1000+ Internets, or whatever the kids are saying nowadays.

Peace, Sol.

EDIT: Badge Reporter working correctly, just hunted down the updated version for Help and the Extended version. Thanks!
