EmFor@0: EmFor@0: I spoke with Ian and he has lost interest in World of Warcraft modding EmFor@0: and encouraged me to modify the Census Mod to my liking. Thus I EmFor@0: have done so. EmFor@0: EmFor@0: The original Census UI Mod basically took snapshots of your current EmFor@0: realm and faction. You could keep this data and combine it with EmFor@0: other snapshots to provide greater statistical analysis. EmFor@0: EmFor@0: CensusPlus offers many features above and beyond what the original Census EmFor@0: UI mod provided. Here follows a list of added features: EmFor@0: EmFor@0: - Abilty to minimize the main census window EmFor@0: which provides you the abilty to actually play while a census EmFor@0: is being taken EmFor@0: - Ability for the Friends panel not to be shown after EmFor@0: each /who is sent to the server. This keeps the UI open from EmFor@0: the main Census window EmFor@0: - Ability to pause and unpause the current census EmFor@0: - Ability to stop the current census in progress EmFor@0: - Added a date information which allows the user to place a EmFor@0: date timestamp on all characters that are found during census's EmFor@0: taken that day -- This helps facilitate greater accuracy in EmFor@0: results when census data is uploaded to www.warcraftrealms.com EmFor@0: - Data on number of characters seen during the census snapshot. EmFor@0: - Collection of Honor points data. EmFor@0: EmFor@0: USAGE EmFor@0: EmFor@0: Unzip the files into your %World of Warcraft/Interface/AddOns directory. It EmFor@0: should create a CensusPlus directory with the installed files. EmFor@0: EmFor@0: If you have Cosmos installed, CensusPlus will register itself with Cosmos EmFor@0: and you can invoke the Census window by selecting the CensusPlus option from EmFor@0: the Census menu. EmFor@0: EmFor@0: You can also invoke the CensusPlus window by typing /censusplus or /census+ EmFor@0: EmFor@0: You can select to not open the Friends panel when a /who is sent. EmFor@0: EmFor@0: You can select to automatically display the Mini-Census button which must be EmFor@0: visible in order for a Census to be taken while the main Census window is EmFor@0: minimized. EmFor@0: EmFor@0: By selecting the Take button from the main census panel, you will initiate a EmFor@0: Census snapshot. Depending on the population of your realm and faction, this could EmFor@0: take several minutes. EmFor@0: EmFor@0: Clicking the Purge button will purge all your collected data from your local Census EmFor@0: database. EmFor@0: EmFor@0: Clicking the Stop button will stop the current census if one is in progress. EmFor@0: EmFor@0: Clicking the Pause button will pause the current census if one is in progress. EmFor@0: EmFor@0: If you so choose, you can upload your collected census information to EmFor@0: http://www.warcraftrealms.com Doing so will greatly help in the tracking EmFor@0: of your realm and faction's population numbers and statistics.
