AOM3U v0.3

MP3 background music player for Anarchy Online and Winamp

What's it doing?

This tool reads AOs system chat and reacts on Entering '<Area>'. Then a corresponding playlist (<Area>.m3u) is launched in Winamp.
There are no playlists included, but created everytime you first enter an area. After that you can fill the playlists as you like.

Usage

Creation of a log window ingame

Right click a chat area and then choose Chat configuration
Create a new log window: click New Window and name it Log, e. g.
Right click on Log in the left list und choose Log messages
Select the following channel in the right area:
- System

If you have a log window, e. g. for a damage dumper, you can just add the system channel there.

Usage

When first starting the tool you have to set all nessecary paths in File - Settings.
You can also choose to play a win-/lost playlist after a duell or the normal zone music.
The path to the current log file is found automatically by the program, if AO is already running. If AO ist started later, e. g. after logging a different character, the new logfile can be set by pressing the button Find new Logfile.

If the window is minimized by the button in the top right, it doesn't go to the tast bar but shrinks to the height of the title bar. There all outputs are shown that normally go to the status bar. So you can view all M3U outputs when playing AO in windowed mode.
The top right maximize button restores the original size of the M3U window.

To combine different zones to one playlist you go to File - Assign M3U-File To Area. In the top list all visited zones are shown.
Now you can check all zones that should share a playlist and select from the dropdown an existing playlist or enter the name of a new playlist. To save the selection press Set M3U-File.
Unused automatically created emtpy playlists can be deleted by the button Delete Empty Playlists to keep the playlist directory tidy.
