It's called Windower, it's not "legal" but you can't be caught unless you broadcast that you use it in game and someone reports you. It's PC only.

http://windower.net/

I also hate it when people don't remove their damn stamps from screenshots.

In your init.txt put in ...

bind sysrq screenshot png hide

thank you.

Ya know.. I always thought that the program itself was allowed, but certain apps aren't (Apradar, the one where you walk through walls.. ect). I mean the res is better and some plugins are genious (distance, the casting one, party tp, ect)

I think it's a standard addon if you don't get windowerlite?

Fair point, although he might be looking just for that plugin. I don't have half the ***Windower gives activated.

I have always wondered how to exactly do that, i'm a windower nub, just use it for recasts and what not but I hate the stupid crap on all the screenshots, where exactly does this go in the init.exe? :3

I don't even have recast active because the box irritates me. Only turn it on when I really need it. That, and having only started using Windower a few months ago, I don't want to lose the natural skill I've developed not relying on plugins.

To be fair, SE did kind of give us a shitty system set up in ways, you don't really lose any skills using the plug-in I find, I ignore it half the time anyways, just use it for shadow timers for the most part, but I get your point, And blink-me-not, forgot about that one. lol

Specifically to recast, I don't need to have it on my screen to know when I can cast something. Having not used recast for three years, I've picked up the skill and judgement not to need it. Having it just makes my Red Magery perfect, as opposed to near-perfect.

And I disagree; if I was to constantly rely on recast plugin, I would slowly lose this judgement.

And yes, Blinkmenot is the ***.

Restart or just make the changes in your init.txt, save and close it, then type "exec init.txt" in the console or //exec init.txt in the chat log to execute it again with the new bind in place.

You'd just have to reload the plugin.

Cai's right. I just didn't remember how to reload that since it's not a plugin per-se.

Absolutly nothing besides the annoying loud character selection music, really wish I could mute, or at least turn that down.
