Welcome to the Fellow Helper Project Page. Here you will find updates, news and other important information regarding Fellow Helper.

Thank you for trying out Fellow Helper. This plug-in for Decal allows you to further benefit from fellowships in AC. You do NOT have to be in a fellowship, but it is most effective when you are fellowed. For the plugin to work you must connect to a Fellow Helper Server.

It is HIGHLY recommend you view the readme for the plugin before playing. You can find it in the installation directory or view it here.

If you are planning on running a Fellow Helper Server its readme can be found in the installation directory or you can view it here.

 Known Issues

  1. The Fellow Helper plugin REQUIRES Decal 2.0 to operate. Please ensure that you are running Decal 2 and that you also have the latest memlocs.xml and messages.xml.
  2. Sometimes when connecting the Fellow tab does not show anything. Make sure your Host IP is correct and try to reconnect. Im working on improving error handling. Right now the client almost always thinks it connects...
  3. If the server dies, or is shut down, sometimes the clients wont know it...
  4. All plugin options are saved when you log out of AC, EXCEPT the "Allow Inventory Queries" option. This is ALWAYS off when AC starts.
  5. I dont know how many people the server can handle. Its written in VB, so who knows...If someone encounters a limit please let me know.
  6. The server is ALMOST generic. If people like this system, I might make some small changes and make the server available for any plugin developer to use.


 Future Plans

  1. Option to display Vital Stats as percentages.
  2. Follow leader!
  3. Show heading to players in group
  4. Query Inventory gets GUI controls instead of command line.
  5. Chat window
  6. More to come...

We hope you enjoy using Fellow Helper. Please feel free to let us know what you think on the forums or by email to abutler@seraphimstudios.com.
