Do I need to write it using another software ? I got a error message saying “non valid json format”. I followed your steps and tried two ways : “add new BO” and the copy/past one. If you specify a civ in your BO, it will only appear if you select the corresponding civ.If you only copy paste a BO, you must click on “reload” (or relaunch the app) so that it can be discovered.In the near future, the BO website will allow you to download any BO in correct format for the overlay.There is a button to add new BOs (look for the feather).You can run aoe2_overlay_console_output.exe, which provides the same overlay, but also adds a console which will print some warnings (potentially about wrong BOs).I would advise you to use the last version by clicking on DOWNLOAD HERE in RTS_Overlay. Which version are you using (look in version.json)? The place where the BOs are saved changed in update 1.4.0.Here are a few additional tips to help you: This name is used to distinguish between different BOs. My main guess is that you copied the file and updated the file name, but not the name in the “name” field inside the file. The purpose here is simply to have both (build orders and match data) in a single tool.Īny suggestion to improve the tool is welcome I recently saw this other tool which uses machine learning to analyze the screen and automatically select the best build order step (you can use it instead if you want something automatic).įor match data (fetched from ), there are already other tools providing similar information. It is super easy, as you can see on the video. You can use the pre-installed build orders or design your own. It is also transparent to mouse clicks, so that it does not interfere with your game. It shows the build order in a more compact format (one step at a time) and is well suited when playing without a second screen. The build order overlay is purely manual and basically provides the same features as a pdf reader or post-its on the screens. Instructions are provided in this video and in the Readme. Just download the zip and run the executable in it (you do not need to launch the game to run the app). For those interested, I developed this overlay to display build orders (29 already included from Hera’s pdf and YouTube videos) and match data (player Elo, rank, win rate…) while playing.
