Target Window
 
Description
I welcome feedback in my released thread or my portal page!

The target window is finally done enough for public consumption. This is the third window in a set of themed windows for Vanguard eventually covering player status window, group window, offensive target, defensive target, encounter display.

This window did unfortunately need an update to my graphical widgets. So either use the ones from this file or the updated ones in my other files.

Version 1.0.1
Corrected a bug that would cause you to have two target windows if you followed the directions.

Version 1.0.2
Graphical update to synchronize graphics used by different Mother's windows. No functional / visual changes.

To install:

If you have never installed a Vanguard mod before:

1. Locate and open your Vanguard directory. (This is by default C:\Program Files\Sony\Vanguard)
2. In that directory, find and open the folder named "VGUIAssets"
3. In that directory, find and open the folder named "Shells"
4. Unzip the entire zip file into the shells directory. (You should have a folder called "Mothers" inside your shells directory when you are done.)
5. Go back to your Vanguard directory from step 1
6. In that directory, find and open the folder named "bin"
7. In that directory, find and open the file called "vgclient.ini" (just double click it and it should open with notepad.)
8. Find the part of the file that looks like:
Code:
[UI]
ShellName=Default
ValidateXML=False
9. Change the ShellName line as follows:
Code:
[UI]
ShellName=Mothers
ValidateXML=False
10. Launch Vanguard and enjoy!

If you have installed other Mother's UIs for Vanguard:

1. Locate and open your Vanguard directory. (This is by default C:\Program Files\Sony\Vanguard)
2. In that directory, find and open the folder named "VGUIAssets"
3. In that directory, find and open the folder named "Shells"
4. In that directory, find and open the folder named "Mothers"
5. In that directory, find and open the folder named "Skins"
6. Copy from the zip file the two files with names beginning with "mothers_widgets" and place them in the skins folder you just opened.
7. Go back up one level to the "Mothers" folder.
8. In that directory, find and open the folder named "Windows"
9. Look in that folder for a file called "VGUIEncounterDisplay_TargetDisplay.xml"
9a. If that file exists, overwrite it with the same-named file from the zip file. This is the only modified file. Congratulations, you are done. Launch Vanguard and enjoy!
9b. If that file does not exist, copy all the files that start with "VGUI_PlayerStatus" from the zip file into the folder you are now in.
10. Go back up to the "Mothers" folder.
11. Open the "Index.xml" file with notepad. (You'll probably have to right-click and choose "Open With" to do so.)
12. Find the line that reads:
Code:
 <GameplayWindows directory="Windows">
13. Immediately after that line, add the following 2 lines:
Code:
<Window filename="VGUIEncounterDisplay_TargetDisplay.xml"/>
<Window filename="VGUIEncounterDisplay_EncounterDisplay.xml"/>
14. Find the line that reads: (probably above the place you are editting)
Code:
  <Window filename="VGUIEncounterDisplay.xml"/>
15. Delete that entire line.
16. Load and play Vanguard.
