How do you get ALLY Spotted/Unspotted Icons to work in PP?

Recommended Posts

We had the ability once, but I can't remember was it removed?, and we still can't add them since then?

 

This ability would be very useful...

I just go to settings in xvm site top bar and activate XMQP. This works for me. When i did it last time i got the spotted icon on the minimap as well. But i use the latest default config.

 

Best regards

Hmmm....  It's activated.  But, I'm using Aslain's xvm and whatever atm, since I'm delaying updating mine given the amount of work I have to do on it after being gone a year.

Maybe I'll compare the default with his and see if I can see what's missing.

Could you upload your playersPanel.xc file for me?

I just downloaded the default XVM, and I'm only seeing Enemy spotted icon code, not Ally at all.

 

Thanks

Check the xmqpServiceMarker section. It's thanks to the XMQP service that you're able to see spotted indicators for your own team. But keep in mind, that those indicators are only visible for players who also have this service enabled and who have Sixth Sense perk studied.

Ah, so that's the problem....  It only shows sometimes, I noticed that.

 

Why in the world would they restrict the function like this...???  When they originally put this function in it worked great, just like the enemy spotted one.

Now it works completely differently and isn't even thus helpful.

 

XVM Dev's....  If you're listening, please please make Ally Spotted Markers work like the Enemy ones again.

 

Here is my playerPanel.xc i use only the default one but here it is, also i have my complete configs folder here to, if you need anything else just let me know.

 

Ya, I see the problem....  They don't even have it's own Macro, it's simply going through the xmqpServiceMarker Macro...

Totally stupid....

It never worked this way. It always was the XMQP service.

Huh, weird.....  So we just don't have the Macro anymore then I guess.

Well bummer.....  I wish it would work like the enemy spotted, it would be nice.

The default client does not transmit that information.

That's why there's XMQP and the requirement that others have to have it enabled as well.

It's not "restricted" by the XVM guys; you are ranting at the wrong party for the wrong reasons.

Wasn't really a rant toward the XVM dev's, the rant part was more toward simply not having the ability whatever the cause and Wargaming.

So, the "totally stupid" was toward Wargaming limiting XVM apparently.  Don't know why though, if we can do it for the Enemy we should be able to do it for the Ally's.

Again, more Wargaming stupidity.

Looking at your previous post, "they" could only refer to the XVM devs, since they are the ones who "put in the function".

In any case, this is not a case of WG "limiting XVM" either, it's just the XVM devs coming up with a new idea and putting it in place despite the current limitations of the vanilla client.

We'll just have to wait and see if WG agrees that this functionality is useful. I have it turned off myself.
