Displaying ACT's data in Full Screen

(EQ2 Integration export options)


ACT uses the embedded Mozilla browser within EQ2 to display data while in full screen mode. (Type /browser ingame) There are two ways that ACT can go about it. The first is a dynamic web-interface, the second is a static intermediary file website.
ACT comes with a browser replacement UI that can be useful for ACT's exports. This UI window has very little wasted space as the URL controls collapse themselves into a small "+" button in the corner of the screen. You can also quickly roll up the entire window into a little "^" button to free up screen space. You can enable EQ2 to use this UI control by pressing the "Set EQ2 homepage and/or replace UI" button and follow the prompts.

If you are using the Intermediary File method, it is recommended that you set the EQ2 browser's homepage to ACT's index using this button as well. Otherwise you will have to fill out the URL manually or through a macro. 		EQ2's Browser Window
Web Interface Features:
  • Current Encounter Table
    • The table of the currently active encounter.
  • Current Mini Window
    • Similar to what the Mini Window would show. Includes profile switching and clipboard capability.
  • Browse ACT's Encounter Data
    • Browse through all of the tables that ACT currently has in memory.
  • Timers Window Table
    • View a table of spell timers ACT is currently tracking.
Intermediary File Features:
  • Main encounter index which shows overview data
    • Similar to if you clicked on a zone parent node within ACT
  • Main encounter tables with graph
    • Similar to the table displayed when you click on an encounter
  • Table and/or graph of the current encounter
    • Auto-refreshes without user interaction to show the current encounter's data for real-time parsing
  • Spell Timers clone
    • Whatever the Spell Timers window shows, this page will display

Web-interface setup
There is actually very little to do for the web interface. You enable the web server using the checkbox and then connect to it using a web browser. To connect to yourself, use a URL such as http://localhost . If you change the server's listening port, you append the port number to the URL such as http://localhost:80 . If you wish others to connect to your interface, simply give them your IP address as the URL. Such as http://64.233.167.99 .
ACT's Web Interface

Intermediary File interface setup

The default URL for this method is file:///C:/Program%20Files/Advanced%20Combat%20Tracker/html/index.html . You can set your /browser homepage using the button described in the first section to this. You may also use a macro such as "/browser URL", where URL is replaced by what is in the URL bar.
Automatic exporting of encounters can be enabled by checking Export EQ2 compatible HTML to view in-game. You can also manually export encounters by right clicking them in the main tab and selecting Export to EQ2 HTML. ACT Options
You can also set ACT to periodically generate a page with the current encounter's data. This can take the form of a main encounter table or graph. The page will automatically refresh requiring no user interaction.

The graph sizing options can also be found here.

Lastly you can have ACT generate a Spell Timers clone. Within this page will be an auto-updating display of what the original spell timers window is showing. Resizing the original will resize the HTML clone. 		ACT Options
For more advanced users, you can have ACT upload the exported encounters to a FTP server. This will allow other users to view your parses within their own browsers. Due to the speed of FTP negotiation, only ended encounter exports can be used here. Things like the auto-updating current encounter view or Spell Timers updates too quickly to upload in a timely manner. ACT Options
