====READ THE CHANGELOG===

AUTHOR PISSED OFF WITH ZOS. QUITTING (But Bored enough to update)


If you've ever had a conversation like this..
"Do you want to join us in dungeon X?"

"Yes, I'm sure one of my 8 chars hasn't done it. Wait a mo while I login to them all..."



Then you know the motivation for this addon.


Dad's History Addon collects significant information from your adventuring and presents it to a Desktop application called HistOffline.lua. This runs under windows using the IUP toolkit.
The addon has no in-game user interface.

The game does not have to be running to use histoffline.

Game information is updated when your character logs out.

Histoffline presents information on your Dungeon achievements and levelling stats.
It is ideal for seeing which dungeons you haven't completed.

When installed for the first time, it will load your achievement list, which populates the Dungeon panels.

The Level and Location panels are only populated going forward. The game itself does not store this information.

If more than one account is used on the computer, you have an option to select the account you wish to view.


Achievements
  • All Achievements uncompleted have red background.
  • Group and Public Dungeons are complete if you have the "Conqueror" Achievement.
  • Veteran Dungeons have several achievements.

Trials
  • Normal, Veteran and Veteran Hard Mode
  • Veteran Mode has the sub-achievements
  • For some achievements, its impossible to be sure if its a veteran achievement or not. If I've guessed wrong, let me know.

Levelling
  • Refer to the Screenshot. One line per level. Play time is Accumulative.

Locations
  • Visits are counted on load screens (Activation). Sometimes maps change without Activation, leaving a city for example. This is not captured at the moment.
  • "First Visited", a date. Again mostly blank because the addon was still in development at that time.
  • "First Level" means level at first visit
  • "Times Levelled" means number of times you leveled up in that map.
  • "First Death" your level when you first snuffed it.
  • "Deaths" How many times you died there.

World Bosses
  • Listed by Map.
  • At least one Boss does not have an Achievement.

Quests With Skill Points
  • Click on link to browse to UESP's webpage on the quest.
  • Zos bug in Malabal Tor, can't fix, No Achievement. http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Online:Buyer_Beware

DLC Group
  • This is the Group Dungeons. DLC public Dungeons are in "Public"
  • DLC Trials are in "Trials Norm, Vet Hard"

Installation
Install the Add-on in the usual way.
Read "installation.pdf" in the Doc folder for details on installing the IUP toolkit


Enjoy. Please report bugs to the forum.

Translations
German Translations by Joklix and Snakefish.
French Translations by Joklix.

V82 out with worldboss fixes

WB and Skillquests are presented as a list. A lot of mucking around has gone and nearly its 10X faster.
Most of the Fr and De location translations have gone. I'm presenting locations as they are shown in the Map.

Thanks for your work and maybe see you back here in the future.

They had to reset the skillpoints because of a bug, where some players did not get counted every skillpoint they earned. Luckily i have heard about that just in time so i was able to backup all skills on every char and reassign them.

Tango Mike & hope you return

hisdad,

While annoyed, I am finding the game has new life and a promise of the best potential CP design since dropping the Veteran system.

I hope you reconsider your rage-quitting sometime and return as your addon eases my OCD-completionist soul....

Thanks for a great addon!

Can't use very old saved variables file

As helltromxx discovered, years old datafiles are not compatible with the current code.

The solution is just to delete it and let the addon repopulate.

And my history file shows characters history only until 6 years ago and even has a character I deleted and 2 not in the History display that i currently now have.

All levels, etc are completely off.

1st time install and followed the directions explicitly. Using LUA53 from the link in the pdf.

Sent it off.

Thank you.

77 is out

Has Markath skill quests. I hadn't noticed their lack, which gives you an idea of how keen I am on new content.

One thing I've discovered is that some of my DLC achievements are completed in game, but do not show as complete in history. For example:

DLC2/Ach ID 1324 "Wrothgar Master Relic Hunter". I've collected all 20 relics on this character. But it still shows as red with no complete date.

Do I need to do something to force an update?
