Health and mana bars

From Townstons

Here is a tip that I have found useful.

Pressing the "~" key defaults to showing the health of monsters, and the name and health of your group mates. However many people do not know that the options are editable. You can choose to show name and/or health and mana for: Yourself (client); Players; Henchmen; and monsters. It can be very useful to find the combination that works for you.

There are two ways to achieve customization.

1) Edit the User.cfg file. To do this, open Computer>Program Files>NCSoft>Dungeon Runners>config>User. You will get a text document which is editable using your word processor. FIRST MAKE A BACKUP OF THE FILE! Scroll down to the second group of commands and you will see several labeled NHP.

  [General]

NHP_ClientHealth = false

NHP_ClientName = false

NHP_EnemyHealth = true

NHP_EnemyName = false

NHP_HenchmanHealth = true

NHP_HenchmanName = false

NHP_PlayerHealth = true

NHP_PlayerName = true

Choose the ones you want to display when you press "~" and make them true. Make the others false. Save the file back to User.cfg.

-OR-

2) Go to hdol.eu, http://eng.hdol.eu/dr_options.php and download their options editor. This makes it easy if you are not afraid of having a freeware program tinker with your settings. I would still suggest MAKE A BACKUP before using it.

I have set it to put my health and mana bars right over my head. (NHP_ClientHealth = true) This is a big help and keeps me from glancing up in the corner all the time! I can concentrate on the battle much more easily!
