Any chance you can start using the installer that some of the other modders have started using?  Thanks again!

So... I... uh... noticed that you can see other players gold.  Just did a 1v1 to test.  I could see my opponents gold in MP. Uh...

I thought these assets were supposed to be locked down so you couldn't view the other teams information.  If I can view the other teams gold... does this mean someone could code a mod to see all of my items/mana as well?

Edit: Relax pacov. I am sure he is working on it.

I don't think you will ever be able to see enemy items/mana as I believe Chirmaya has confirmed that info is not available.  Hopefully it is just the gold that is being passed through and hopefully GPG can block it in a future patch to prevent the info from being available.

What version are you using, pissanusak? I recall fixing a glove issue like that earlier. Please let me know if it doesn't work in the up-to-date version.

And yeah, bman is right. Players have access to the enemy gold information, so that it something that GPG would have to block. I mean, I could to make it more fair by manually blocking it... hmm... I'll try to fix that when I get some more time.

Yeah, i can see the enemy's gold too.

But its not so bad. Just seeing how much gold your enemies have, you can only speculate what items they might have bought. You cant see anything that is gamebreaking.

Still, i have to say, Great work Chirmaya! Your mod is excellent :thumbsup:

Edit: oops! I had already given you karma 2 hours ago. Oh well you got k2 after all :rofl:

If you just manually block it, someone will likely unblock it... might be best to leave it as is.  I was just concerned that additional information might be available and could lead to cheating.  If you say the other data (items/mana/equipment/character location) is locked down (eg one team can't see the other team's values), then I'm not all that concerned.  I don't know enough about these UI mods to be able to confirm that myself.

Yeah, I don't really feel like blocking it =P Go-go gadget game developers!

Setup an installer thanks to bman's tutorial at: http://forums.demigodthegame.com/369938

Shows gold on enemies
Shows gold on enemy minions (rook towers)

Fixed the gold showing on minions problem. New version is out!

I don't if anyone has noticed this, but when mouse is over a minion, it shows the wrong items that are buffing the minion, or it skips some items. I was just running a full minion build with erebus with ONLY minios items. it shows me only 3 items (instead of 5) for the minions, 1 one which is Doomspite Grips which has no minion buffs and which I didn't have. Also, it doesn't show the favor item on minions assuming that the favor item has minion buffs.

Thanks for reporting this. Sadly, the items not showing is due to the item setup not having an icon image for the buff, and the incorrected image of the glove is also caused by the incorrect image linked via the item setup. I could have normally worked around this easily, but it seems that buffs that do not have icons do not show up in the buff information that the UI has access to. As far as I can tell, unless the items themselves are fixed in a patch, these will not show up correctly.

Its seems that there are a lot of things that need to be fixed D: especially the enemy gold showing up!

Enemy gold could be blocked, but in another version of this mod, but people could still use old versions of this to view enemy gold.  This should be fixed by GPG in another build where assets are locked down as was originally intended.

Imho you should remove enemy gold by default, regardless of the fact, that people can still use an older version of the mod or alter the mod in order to let it show again.

Hmm... I suppose, but I don't think Chirmaya was wanting to do that.  I guess if you get a chance, Chirmaya... no one 'll get mad at you one way or the other.  :)
