Minimap Icons do not Render #13

Closed ericellb closed 4 years ago

ericellb commented 4 years ago

The Minimap icons in PoeHelper do not render on the minimap or the large map.

I remember this breaking in the update from March 27th. Perhaps the memory address for the monster location is incorrect, and was never changed,

Unfortunately I do not have any more information on this. I tried this on DirectX11 and Vulkan, does not seem like the issue is specific to either.

Good new is this works flawless on Vulkan.

March 27th? LuL

It's usually caused by a bug in the code. Toggling healthbars/iconbuilder/minimapicons on and then off usually fixes it. Basically when one turns off, it turns them all off.

Also, if you're using Vulkan mode, a lot of things are weird. Windowed Fullscreen no longer seems to work. Windowed mode still works. I even had it working in full screen where it wasn't actually Full Screen (I could see my task bar). It's a beta for a reason, I suppose.

Yeah, I quit around that time, and never submitted a bug report.

It seems to work properly on Quin version of PoeHelper, I just rather use this one.

EDIT :

Enabling / Disabling the Healthbars seems to work to fix healthbars. However enabling / disabling Minimap Icons does not seem to fix it. They do not render at all. (Windowed mode, DirectX11 OR Vulkan)

It was working flawlessly before the March 27th update, maybe this can help you pinpoint a change that broke it. I tried downloading a release you have before March 27th, and still broken. Which points me to believe it is a memory address issue.

They work fine for me, and many, many others, which leads me to believe that the issue is on your side.

ericellb commented 4 years ago

Very weird then.

I have a fresh install of PoE and your latest release. Monster Healthbars work, Icons don't work at all.

Unsure what other repro steps I can provide. If it works for you on your latest release I guess you can close this off.

TehCheat commented 4 years ago

Make sure in the minimap icons settings "Draw Monster" is checked. It's off by default (which is dumb, but I haven't bothered fixing it yet).

ericellb commented 4 years ago

@TehCheat Yeah, I had that on. I tried tweaking every single setting and wasn't able to get it to work.

I had it working flawlessly prior to that March 27 update, unsure if the change that broke it for me was on your end, or a memory address change, however, I can confirm it doesn't work for me, and a friend. Both of ours worked prior to that update.

Not sure how different the plugin you run vs Quin, however it works fine using his HUD.

Have you tried with your most recent build, on the new POE patch?

EDIT : Seem to have found the solution. Similar to what you mentioned above, I had only tried enabling Healthbars, but seems like you need to do IconBuilder

Fix : Enable IconBuilder then enable MinimapIcons
