A free tool has risen

Hi,

i just want to announce a tool for Regnum, that some people wanted to be implemented a long time ago in the game itself. A small group of players like me, implemented a tool, because we found the features needed.

We called it the RegnumHelper.

Features:

Shows Realm mates or Group mates on a map
Shows Mana/Health status of players in a frequent way
See fort status
Direction people are heading to with range rings that show what is reachable in 30 and 60 seconds
the executable includes the client and the server (if clans want to use an own server)
manually marks of enemy locations
Some small chats for realm/group or global
Mule feature
and some more features

What is needed for that tool?

A more or less strong CPU (>2 GHz is preferred)
Java 1.6 installed
Tested on Linux and Windows systems

How does the tool work?
The tool itself is totally based on taking screenshots of the gamewindow and doing some textrecognition on position and health/mana. So NO manipulation of the regnum sources and NO network sniffer.

Limitations:
Yeah, the tool has some limitations as well.
First of all a strong CPU is needed. Not only because of the tool, but the regnum client itself is using too much of the CPU. Taking screenshots is a operation that uses some resources too. So some users have encounter additonal lags in the game. But see for yourself and if you have, increase the update time of the screenshots. A good value is around 3 or 4 seconds.
I am using a 2,8GHz Pentium 4 on WinXP and i didnt have lags that were coming due to the tool.

Where do i get the tool?
http://sourceforge.net/projects/regnumhelper

Try it, test it, gimme feedback.
Its used up to now, only on a small user group. So i dont know how the tool will react with some more users.
