Rainbow Reticle Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.7

by: calia1120 [More]

This add-on colors the reticle (cross-hairs) based on what it is pointing at, including hostile targets change it to red for example.

It also can optionally color the reticle when pointing at guild mates, friends (from friends list), and group members. Additionally it has options to display the level of the target, as well as the target's health current / maximum values and/or as a percentage.

It also ignores trivial "critters" that are not hostile and only level 1, so as to keep from being distracting.

Just a note, if someone is both on your friends list and in a guild with you, the guild color will override. I'm working on a preference setting for this, along with a color picker to set your own colors, along with some other things.

May be compatible with other reticle addons. Compatibility is confirmed for Combat Reticle, which is another addon that I am on the author team for.

Some history
Rainbow Reticle was originally created by Mitazaki, and was later continued by mctaylor with some help from Garkin for the Craglorn patch.

It's long been one of my favorite addons. With the changes to the game, it was much in need of an update. I hope you guys like it!

The addon description says: "It also can optionally color the reticle when pointing at guild mates, friends (from friends list), and group members." Guild mates look like the same color as interact-able NPCs (green). Has anyone tried to edit the color parameters in the lua file to make guild mates names/health appear 'purple', for example? Thanks for any discussion.

Many thanks!

Hello, out of curiosity, am I asking something stupid and I am missing some basic feature?

Thanks!

I can't get the colors without turning the names on, as far as I can tell. If I disable them, it stays plain white... Is this a feature request, or a bug?

Is there a fix for this?

Will be fixing that this week. Working on uploads a handful of addons for latest patch.

I've tested this a handful of different ways. Can you show me a screen clip of your settings and what the reticle is showing as well?

calia1120 Forum posts: 62 File comments: 232 Uploads: 5	I've adjusted it so that names can be hidden and the reticle still colors properly. I've also adjusted it so health can be displayed without the name, but the health text is not coloring as it should (the reticle itself is changing properly though). Part of it has to do with the All setting, it overrides a handful of other things, so I'm going to be breaking up the options menu a bit more as I have time. __________________ Calia \| @Calia1120 \| NA Server GM, Iron Bank of Bravos \| Council of Nirn \| Elder Scrolls Alliance My Addons

I would also like to have the option to use the colors only. Right now the only way I can get the colors to show is to enable names, which I don't want to do.

Thanks for updating this!

Edit: I found a small workaround to hide the names for now, if anyone wants to use it. Use it at your own risk. Don't bother the addon author about it if it causes any errors or problems. Make a backup first.

1. Open RainbowReticle.lua with Notepad++.

2. Edit line 204 by changing false to true. This will hide the names even with them enabled in the options.

Find line 204, which looks like this:

Lua Code:

RainbowReticleUnitName:SetHidden(false)

Then change line 204 to:

Lua Code:

RainbowReticleUnitName:SetHidden(true)

There has never been an option for text size. It could be related to your UI scale.

I could swear, there was an option for this.
