Monster Counter / Kill Counter

[Snowfox]

This is a program made in Visual Basics 6.0, it is very simple, it allows you to count how many monsters you kill. Every time you kill a monster just press "alt" on your keyboard it will play a small confirmation sound, and add 1 to your kill count. Since alt is the best key i could find i sued it, but it has some errors, if you alt+tab it will ad one, to fix this press "6" as it will deduct one from your total.

Disclaimer: The source code is not intended to be altered in such a way where it interferes with the original heRO online game. This means there shall be no pixel detection, nor shall there be auto sending keys, because this would result in a macro, which is an illegal 3rd party program. Since ROCounter needs a user input (alt) it is not a macro, nor is it fully automated.

That could be very useful on hunting items, like for a quest, when you have to have many items, and you gotta take them to the kafra. I don't know if it works like that too o.o. But it is useful, I think xD.

[Kojiro]

... I just don't see any usefulness in alt'ing after killing each monster xD

Anyway, like i said... it's not usefull for me, but maybe it is for someone else. ^_^

[Former-GM-Chocolate]

you could count other stuff, that's what I meant, like, how many items you have already collected so far

[Kojiro]

IMHO, dragging at the shortcut bar it's easyer... you could see the number collected so far of a certain item on the screen.

[Former-GM-Chocolate]

But if you're doing a quest that requires a great amount of items you can't just go around carrying them XD. You gotta store them in a kafra, which is why I think it could be useful o.O

[Kojiro]

Well... good point
throught i would just use notepad for that
But thinking well, really it is usefull

Thank you very much for this. I'll try it out, but from the sounds of it I think I'll have a lot of fun. I like using these sort of things.
It'll be interesting to track my progress and see just how many things I've fought when I finish hunting random stuff.
