ZOmnibus addon help needed

I believe that I have the ZOmnibus addon running but the ONLY difference I see in the game is the icon that shows I am connected to the server. What am I missing?? I would love to use some of the features of the addon. I'm sure I'm just overlooking something.

Can someone tell me how to access the features? ...or attach a screenshot that might be helpful?

Should I attach a screenshot that would help to determine my status with the addon in game?

Thanks!!

Check under the options menu to find all the zomnibus related stuff, it's got it's own tab IIRC. It's a modular thing as you can enable/disable the parts you want/don't want. You'll likely need to be in-game for the options to show up, and might need to restart after changing them, depending on what they are.

Check under Game Options, once you start a new character.

Under the UI Tab and the Gameplay Tab you will find various options of the addon near the bottom.

Flip on whichever you want.

Should be in different tabs under Game Options. No separate tab.

notes to self
talent point planner
"save" talent_stat points

Check out key bindings, a few of those, I believe, are hidden in there.

As for the landmarks portion, thats in the escape menu in game.

'show known landmarks' to be precise.

If there's a "Show known landmarks" item, ZOmnibus is active; that's from the Go to Landmark component.

As for game options... [sound F/X: source diving] Inventory Sort Order's "Sort gems by tier" option is under the UI tab; under Gameplay, there's Opt-in Adventurer Parties' "Adventurers party response strategy", "Orc patrol response strategy" and "Extended evade duration" options, Auto-Transmo Gems' eponymous option, Tier-1 Short Circuit Option's "Short-circuit some early dungeons" option, and Alternate Zone Option's "Alternate zones" option.

Generally, the best way to find out what ZOmnibus does is to check the addon descriptions of each of its components (listed for your convenience on ZOmnibus' addon page). Some quick hilights, though:
  • Notes to Self's character notes dialog on <Alt-Shift N>
  • Talent Point Planner's point planner dialog on <Alt-Shift-G>
  • Store Wish List's wish list dialog on <Alt-Shift-W>
  • <Shift-R> to rest for a specific number of turns, via Timed Rest
  • Via "Save" Talent/Stat Points, on the levelup dialog you can press the (previously non-functional) "Stats", "Class points", "Generic points" and "Category points" buttons at the top to mark points as "saved" if you want to save them for talents you can't acces yet.
  • That "Show known landmarks" thing? I think you'll like it. :wink:
Most of the pieces of ZOmnibus aren't designed to be flashy or showy; they mainly provide convenience and utillty. I forget they're there myself sometimes, until I turn them off to test something and my Alchemist suddenly finds his gems scattered throughout his inventory...
