Bloodwraith.5271 Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 **TL;DR** This is how it looks like: https://i.imgur.com/0Qjg7UB.png Download it here: https://gw2rpc.info/ # Discord Rich Presence addon ## What it does: Utilizes the recently added Discord Rich presence to display additional information in your status like [this](https://i.imgur.com/0Qjg7UB.png), including: * Map name (with it's loading screen image) * Character name * For fractals, fractal name * Profession/elite spec * Region (EU/NA) on hover of the loading screen image * Time spent in the current map ### Usage: Simply run `gw2rpc.exe`. It will start in your system tray. The program needs to be running alongside GW2 for Rich Presence to work. In the `config.ini` in the program's directory, you can input your API key so that your status can display region (EU/NA) and elite spec as well. To make starting Rich Presence easier, in the download there is included an .exe called `launch_gw2_with_rpc.exe`. This script launches both GW2 and the addon. For it to work, it needs to be present in `GW2FOLDER\addons\gw2rpc`. You may then replace your normal GW2 shortcut with it for ease of launching. You can also place a shortcut to `gw2rpc.exe` in your autorun to automatically start it with Windows ### Can I get banned for this? No, it doesn't interact with the game in any way - it utilizes the Mumble API to get the necessary data. ### Questions, suggestions, bug reports, want to stay up to date? You can join the support server [here](https://discord.gg/DssaydZ) or by right clicking the tray icon > Join support server ### Open source! GW2RPC is open source, repository available here: https://github.com/Maselkov/GW2RPC ### Some future plans and ideas * Localization * Multiple API key support * Ask to join feature (via copying party/squad invites to clipboard) * Copy nearest waypoint to clipboard * More customization options in config.ini ### Credits This is a joint effort together with Maselkov.

Drake Shadowstorm.4739 Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 I am using it. No virus. I kinda understand (and appreciate) that you are trying to protect people, sorudo.9054 , but in this case you are just not telling the truth. Not cool.

(tho sometimes blocks game updates, there is something like too good) I have tried and tested a lot of AV over the years and this is the first I've heard of yours, it is a false positive that is being generated, the fact it blocks game updates is proof that it isn't the greatest. As bloodwraith said, it is all on github.com so anyone can view the code and compile it themselves and see that it is just a false positive being generated.

simzy.2417 Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 First, here is the SDK for rich presence https://discordapp.com/rich-presence which is what the app uses, second, here is the mumble api https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/API:MumbleLink which ANYONE can access to find the correct info for peoples accounts that is PUBLIC, you are so paranoid about a virus yet the only way you would know about the videos on youtube is if you have searched for them yourself, anyone can claim it is a virus but nowhere in the source code does it infect your system with anything, the code, api and sdk are public so anyone can view, use and modify to their own needs, clearly Gabbynot.2654 and sorudo.9054 have not done the proper research and just assume that because it is an exe and not something that a company has made that it must be a virus. Just switch off and unplug your pcs then if you are that worried, even google could be considered a virus in your logic as you cannot see the source code for it and it tracks everything you do when using it.
