Game window and indicator monitoring

Game Monitor requires Windows 10 x64 or Windows 11 x64. Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 are not supported. No additional components are required. Settings are stored in the current Windows user's profile:

You can change the interface language in Settings: Russian / English. Russian is used by default.

1. Open Telegram and find the official @BotFather bot.
2. Send the command /newbot.
3. Enter a bot name, for example My Game Monitor.
4. Choose a username ending in bot, for example my_game_monitor_bot.
5. Copy the Bot Token you receive, such as 123456789:AA....
6. Open the new bot and press Start or send it any message.

1. After sending a message to your bot, open:
   https://api.telegram.org/botYOUR_BOT_TOKEN/getUpdates
2. Find the "chat" object and its "id" field in the response.
3. The number in the id field is your Chat ID.

{
  "message": {
    "chat": {
      "id": 123456789
    }
  }
}

Enter the Bot Token and Chat ID in Game Monitor's Telegram settings, then run the connection test.

1. Open Profile Management on the main screen.
2. Click Add.
3. Enter a clear name such as L2 Essence, WoW, or the server name.

A single profile can contain multiple characters. Each character has its own game window, indicators, and monitoring settings.

1. Click Add Character and select the required profile.
2. Enter the character name — it will be used in notifications.
3. In the Game Window section, select a window from the list or use Pick by Click.
4. When click selection starts, select the required window through the transparent overlay.

1. In the character editor, go to Indicators and click + Add Indicator.
2. Enter a name such as HP, MP, Stamina, or anything else.
3. Select the type: BAR for a percentage-based fill bar; COLOR_TRIGGER for detecting the appearance or disappearance of a target color.
4. Click Select Area from Window Snapshot and select only the required UI element.

1. The easiest method is Eyedropper from Window: pick a distinctive color directly from the UI element.
2. You can also use Color from Area Center when appropriate.
3. Tolerance allows small RGB differences, which helps with gradients, glow, and brightness changes.
4. Click Test Indicator and verify that the result matches the actual state.

If the reported percentage is inaccurate, select the area more precisely, choose a more distinctive color, or adjust the tolerance.

Examples:

When a threshold is crossed, Game Monitor sends a notification and remembers the active state. Recovery and hysteresis automatically follow the selected direction, so the same event is not sent on every check.

Select an area and color in the same way as for BAR. Then set the percentage of pixels that should match the selected color and choose the condition direction.

For COLOR_TRIGGER, the percentage represents the share of pixels matching the selected color, not the fill level of a bar.

1. Click Start.
2. Indicator states will begin updating on the character cards.
3. When a threshold triggers, a window disappears, an image freezes, or another configured event occurs, Game Monitor sends a Telegram notification.
4. From Telegram you can request status and screenshots, open the character list, and start or stop monitoring.
