Attention: Last Version I release until I know if this'Tool' is permitted by the Blizzard-Terms of Service! Use this Tool at your own risk!

Autor: Andreas Feldschmid
Version: 0.4
ReleaseDate: 10.12.2005
This whole Addon was coded very quick and dirty, its the very first version of itand i've written it mainly for my own purpose.
Please read the IMPORTANT-Parts!

You need to have the Java Runtime Environment installed in order to execute the Bgisready.exe
You can download the JRE athttp://www.java.com/en/download/index.jsp

## 1. Why this Addon? ##

The purpose of this Addon is to inform you that you are ready to enter
the Battleground even if WoW is not focused (window mode) or is mini-
mized. So now you can surf the Web or even WORK ... on you PC while
you are queued in the BG-Line and never have to switch back to WoW
every couple of Minutes to make sure you don't miss the BG.

## 2. Setup& Usage ##

2.1 Extract the Files from the Archive.

2.2 Place the Bgisready Folder in your World of Warcraft\Interface\Addons Directory.

2.3 Place the Bgisready.exe, Bgisready.wav and Timer.wav into your World of Warcraft\WTF\Account\YOURLOGINNAME\ Folder, where YOURLOGINNAME is replaced by.. your login name.

2.4 Restart the Game to ensure the Addon is loaded. Type in'/bgisready on' to activate the Addon.
With'/bgisready off' you can turn it off.
Only enable the Addon if you plan to minimize WoW
## DON'T enable the Addon while you're grinding, trading, doing quests etc.!!##

2.5 Start the Bgisready.exe -> Now you can work outside of WoW and the Soundfile should be played when the BG is ready. You don't have to Close or Restart the Ready-Checker Application after you are finished with
your first BG just get in the queue for the next one :)
After each BG (whether you participated or missed it) you have to Re-Activate the WoW-Addon with'/bgisready on',
this is intended and should protect you from having the Addon turned ON by mistake.


2.6 The Countdown will play the Timer.wav when it reaches zero.
It will stop once you enter a BG.
To Restart it use the Reset-Button.

NOTES: - You might replace the Bgisready.wav with another WAVE file that is up to 10 Seconds long.
## IMPORTANT!! ##
- When you are Queued in a BG and the BG becomes Ready, WoW will Reload the whole GameInterface!
So be sure to turn off the Addon when doing Instances or other Important Ingame Stuff!
Once the BG is ready your whole ChatLogs and opened Interface Windows will be closed / erased.
You might not be able to roll for items if the Addon is turned on and your interface reloads while a roll-window is open.
It might occur that your Cursor isn't shown - just try to click the enter BG-Button..
--> Bug .. :(
- To disable the Addon type /bgisready off - to enable /bgisready on
- You will still have to switch to WoW and move your Character a bit from time to time to prevent AFK-Disconnects.

## 4. History ##

0.4 Rewritten the Programm, added a GUI.
The 2 SourceFiles can be viewied in the /Source Directory.
Included the .jar-file in the .Exe itself so there is no need for .class files anymore.
The Programm will now check if the File was modified - and if so, if it
was modified because of the BGisready Addon.

0.3 Partly rewritten the Java-Programm. It now only checks if the File was modified.

0.2 Added Source + recompiled .class (added some comments) on request.

0.1 First version
