v1.58.1
Act-Tracker
-
the zone-layout overlay has moved to a new
act-decoder
feature that has its own section in the settings menu-
general usage hasn't changed, you only have to enable this new feature in the settings
-
NOTE: CUSTOM LAYOUT IMAGES (IF YOU USED ANY) WILL BE DELETED WITH THIS UPDATE, SO MAKE SURE YOU SAVE THEM BEFORE UPDATING
-
-
I did this because I have a few ideas for zone-layouts (and maybe boss stuff) and those need more customization options (the
act-tracker
section in the settings menu is already quite packed) -
zone-layouts now take priority over guide hints (text highlighted in teal) because both were activated by holding TAB and basically showed very similar things
Act-Decoder: General
-
this update serves as an initial public test for "advanced" zone-layout overlays
-
the idea is to have access to more accurate/detailed layout images by identifying specific patterns in the area you're currently in
-
the "act-decoder" is basically an interactive, flow-chart-like overlay that lets you mimic the thought-process that speed runners go through when playing the campaign
-
currently implemented:
Clearfell
,The Red Vale
,Apex of Filth
-
if the current zone is supported, the overlay will show you mini-map snippets that show certain clues / "identifiers" / "key tells" from which the whole layout can be deduced
-
these clues are highlighted in green, and you are supposed to check if these are present on the mini-map
-
white borders around the images are shown when layouts can be picked/confirmed
-
-
the overlay will only show two picks at a time, and you can right-click images to discard them and go through a process of elimination
(same selection from above, after discarding the first pick)
-
if any of the picks matches what you see on the mini-map, click the image to load the full layout
-
if you discard every pick because they don't match, the overlay will either:
Act-Decoder: New Overlay Additions
-
added new buttons:
-
dedicated drag button to move the overlay (right-click to reset to default position)
-
dedicated alignment button that can be clicked to toggle between horizontal and vertical image alignment
-
reset button that resets picks/exclusions for the current zone, as well as rotations/mirroring for every image
-
-
added a "zoom when locked" setting
-
this can be used to set a fixed image zoom-level when the overlay is locked
-
this means you can have different zoom-levels while (not) holding TAB
-
-
in addition to right-clicking and discarding layout picks that don't match, you can also right-click individual fallback layouts and the info boxes to hide them and declutter the overlay a bit
Statlas: Updated Images
-
updated a few boss images
-
added support for several (unique) maps
-
changed the map images to monochrome images that only show the layout, not the map itself (they were often hard to recognize anyway
