As probably the only human on earth that actually genuinely likes and uses the target frame, some more options regarding it would be nice.

Making the crosshair invisible while within the frame or vice-versa, drawing the health bar and text with respect to the frame above/below it or within the frame snapping to corners, etc.

Also it seems like it might be fairly easy to make a "dynamic" crosshair by simply having different visual/behavior setups for the crosshair based on whether it's on an enemy or not.

Great mod as is already, obviously. I use it with every single mod.

Hey I've been using this for ages and I love it so much! Lately I've been playing Abysm 1&2 with it and couldn't help but notice that whenever I'm using the "position above target" setting the text is rendered waaaay to close to the enemy sprite, obscuring it. Is there a way to off-set the position of the text when using the "on target" setup?

Also I second @RedClairefield 's suggestions for the target frames. I use them too (occasionally haha)!

Thx again for ALL of your amazing mods m8f

[m8f]

I'm afraid there is no configuration option for the offset for position above target. You can try to tune the code, though. In the pk3, find the file zscript/ts_event_handler.zs. There, find the function named getRelativeXY. There is a line that says

Code: Select all

             ? target.height * 1.2

Change 1.2 multiplier to some other value, maybe 2.0.

I'm not sure why the position is wrong for Abysm. Maybe I have to check enemy scaling.

Hey thx a whole big ol' bunch! Easy to adjust in SLADE

I settled with 1.6 and it's now way more comfy to look at, specially with monsters that are far away.

Been mostly using "below target" up until now but I think I'll keep it above since now I can adjust (sort of) the height to my liking. tysm again for all your cool stuff and attention!

How were you able to add the custom crosshair? I went to the crosshair piece reference and I'm not sure what to do to change it

You have to input the character for the symbol you want. Like, if you want to have that crosshair I used in the screenshots, you have to write "Y" on the center piece.

Hello, does anybody know how I can rename the monster tags? I would like to change their names for certain wads I play.
Update:
I found a mod that does it for me called Nomina. Here it is for anyone who wants custom names

HELP! i cant find the settings for target spy anywhere in the game, the mod is working but the settings is nowhere to be found, i enabled the Full setiings but still cant find it! any fix?

[m8f]

Please share a screenshot of what do you see in the bottom of the full settings menu. Also, what other mods do you load?

Hi there, great work on a wonderful mod m8f! I really enjoy using it. I was just wondering with your expertise in the future how do you tell if certain mods work with multiple games (Strife, Hexen, Heretic etc) when the author doesn't specify (he just made it for Doom for example). It is really cool how this mod works with other games as well and I would like to try and keep my eye on more mods that work across different games. I would assume obviously map packs wouldn't work on multiple games but more quality of life stuff like target spy will.
