I recently developed a small application for myself and a few friends that alerted me to when a Daily Bonus Chest event started so I could easily farm it without having to alt-tab to a webpage. I also needed a way to track which ones I had already done if I had limited game time.
It runs in the background leaving you to game and will show a pop-up notification as soon as a tracked event starts. You need to be running in Windowed/Windowed Full-screen mode for it to work.
As it uses the direct API from GW2 it immediately alerts when a tracked event starts but currently doesn’t have a timer.
It is still in BETA with more features to be added on later but it was suggested to me that quite a few people would benefit from me releasing it.
Any suggestions or feedback would be greatly appreciated.
UPDATE 15/7:
Much closer to a final version. Fixed a lot of bugs. Running much smoother now with an effective notification system.
UPDATE 12/7:
Overhauled the notification system and added an events logger. Should now be more streamlined with the game. Still working on a proper UI. Added screenshots and instructions to the project page.
UPDATE 10/7:
Added pre-event tracking for an early warning towards the main event. Should be much more useful now.
