Champions

The champions Evonex must recognise, kept in the same order as the game’s champions window.

Use it to

Keep your champions in game order and teach Evonex what each one looks like.

You need

Nothing to look, reorder or rename. An emulator, or a screenshot file, only to add a skin.

Used by

The Greet champions daily activity.

Evonex finds a champion on screen by what it looks like. A champion can have several skins (looks), and it is found when any one of them is on screen. The cards must stay in the same order as the game’s champions window, because Greet champions pages left and right by card number. The champions come in game order already. When the game adds a champion, add it here too. Every instance shares this list, and a change is saved as soon as you confirm it.

Put the cards in game order

1. Set Sort to Game order and clear the search box. You can drag cards only then.
2. Open the game’s champions window and note the order. #1 is the first champion in the game.
3. Drag a card to its place. Drop it on the left half of another card to go before it, on the right half to go after it, or on empty space to go to the end.
4. Check that every # number agrees with the game. Each drop saves the order and renumbers every card.

A new champion joins the end of the list. Drag it into place.

Add a champion

1. Click Add Champion and type the Champion name. No two champions can share a name.
2. Click Add skin. A capture window opens.
3. In the game, open the champion so its full picture is on screen. In Evonex, pick your emulator under Port and click Capture screen. With no emulator, click Upload image… and pick a screenshot file instead.
4. Drag a box around the champion’s full picture. Scroll to zoom and right-drag to move the view. Use selection turns on once the box is big enough.
5. Click Use selection. In Skin details, type a Skin name if you like, then click Select template in Vision Lab to mark the part of the picture Evonex should look for.
6. Click Save skin. Repeat from step 2 for each other look of the champion.
7. Click Add. Then drag the new card into place.

The Vision Lab

The Vision Lab opens on the skin’s picture. Drag a box around a distinctive part of the champion, one that is easy to tell apart. Then click Use for this skin. If the crop is new, Evonex asks you to name it (a name is filled in for you) and links it. The green box then shows in the skin window.

Controls on this tab

With no champions saved, the tab says No champions yet and offers Add your first champion. When a search finds nothing, it says No champions match.

How Greet champions uses it

• It lists the champions in this order and finds the one on screen by any of its skins.
• It uses the # numbers to work out how far to page left or right.
• It remembers each champion in its plan by name. After you rename a champion, give it its greets and empowers again there.
• With no champions here, its plan says No champions in the library yet.
