Added to README.md:
- New 'OCR Requirements (Optional)' section after Installation
- Instructions for installing EasyOCR (recommended), Tesseract, or PaddleOCR
- Note that Game Reader works without OCR, just shows 'not available'
Improved Game Reader Test plugin:
- Better error message when Tesseract binary is not installed
- Provides download link and installation steps in error message
- Updated Calibration tab to check if Tesseract binary is available
- Shows recommendation to use EasyOCR in backend status
This helps users understand why they get 'tesseract is not installed'
errors and how to fix them.
Added new 'File Test' tab that allows testing OCR on saved screenshot files.
This is useful when:
- The game is not currently running
- You want to test OCR on a specific saved screenshot
- You want to compare OCR results on the same image
Features:
- Browse button to select image files (PNG, JPG, BMP, TIFF)
- Backend selection (Auto/EasyOCR/Tesseract)
- Displays filename and processing stats
- Shows which backend was used and processing time
The original 'Quick Test' still captures the current screen.
The new 'File Test' lets you test on saved images.
The plugin was using wrong field names for EventBus events:
SkillGainEvent:
- Fixed: points → gain_amount
- Fixed: new_value → skill_value
LootEvent:
- Fixed: Now uses items list instead of direct item_name/quantity/value
- Updated to handle the dict structure in items list
DamageEvent:
- Fixed: amount → damage_amount
- Fixed: Now uses is_outgoing instead of is_critical for direction
- Added target_name and attacker_name fields
GlobalEvent:
- Fixed: player → player_name
- Fixed: item → item_name
- Added achievement_type field
All simulate buttons should now work correctly.
CHANGES:
1. Settings plugin is no longer categorized as 'Core' plugin
- The settings menu is built into the overlay window
- Having both was redundant
- Settings plugin still exists but won't be auto-enabled
2. Removed hardcoded SpotifyWidget from core/dashboard.py
- Spotify widget was baked into core instead of being a proper plugin
- Should be in plugins/spotify_controller/ instead
- Commented out the widget addition for now
This addresses the user's feedback that:
- Settings plugin is redundant with the settings menu
- Spotify widget shouldn't be in core
BUG 1: Sidebar buttons clicked wrong plugin
- Lambda captured idx by reference, always using last value
- Fixed by using functools.partial to capture by value
BUG 2: Dashboard plugin KeyError 'border_subtle'
- Changed to 'border_default' which exists in EU_COLORS
The sidebar should now correctly switch to the clicked plugin.
BUG: TypeError: missing 1 required positional argument: 'checked'
The lambda functions were expecting a 'checked' argument that wasn't
being passed by the signals:
- QShortcut.activated doesn't pass any arguments
- SidebarButton.clicked doesn't pass any arguments
Fix: Removed 'checked' parameter from both lambda functions.
BUG: 'bg_panel' KeyError in Dashboard plugin.
The EU_COLORS dictionary doesn't have 'bg_panel'. Changed to use
'bg_secondary' which is the correct background color for panels.
BUG: KeyError: 'border_color' when opening Settings dialog.
The color dictionary uses 'border_default' not 'border_color'.
Fixed all 5 occurrences in the file.
BUG: KeyError: 'accent_primary' when opening Settings dialog.
The color dictionary uses 'accent_orange' not 'accent_primary'.
Fixed all 10 occurrences in the file.
NEW TESTING PLUGINS:
1. Log Parser Test Plugin (plugins/log_parser_test/)
- Real-time event monitoring with counters
- Visual event history table (last 100 events)
- Raw log line viewer
- Simulated event buttons for testing:
* Skill Gain
* Loot
* Damage
- Event type filtering and statistics
- Color-coded event types
- Auto-scroll and refresh
2. Game Reader Test Plugin (plugins/game_reader_test/)
- Quick OCR test with progress bar
- Region-specific OCR testing with presets:
* Chat Window
* Skills Window
* Inventory
* Mission Tracker
- OCR backend selection (Auto/EasyOCR/Tesseract/PaddleOCR)
- Processing time tracking
- Test history with results
- Save/copy OCR results
- Calibration tools:
* Display DPI detection
* Backend status checker
* OCR tips and best practices
FEATURES FOR BOTH:
- Modern EU-styled UI
- Tabbed interface
- Error handling and logging
- Background processing (no UI freeze)
- Real-time updates
These plugins serve as both testing tools and demonstrations
of the Log Reader and OCR core services capabilities.
BUG: name 'QCheckBox' is not defined errors in plugins settings tab.
Root cause: QCheckBox was imported inside _open_settings() method but
_create_plugins_settings_tab() also uses it. The local import didn't
propagate to the helper method.
FIX:
- Added QCheckBox to top-level PyQt6 imports
- Added QTabWidget to top-level imports (also used)
- Removed redundant local imports from _open_settings()
All settings UI components now available globally in the module.
BUG: AttributeError when accessing plugin_class.name in settings tab.
The error occurred when iterating over discovered plugins and trying
to access .name, .version, or .description attributes. While all
plugins should have these attributes, there might be edge cases
where the plugin_class is not properly formed.
FIX:
- Added getattr() with defaults for safe attribute access
- Added try-except around each plugin row creation
- Added error logging for debugging
- Gracefully skip broken plugin entries instead of crashing
Changes:
- _create_plugins_settings_tab() now uses getattr() for all
plugin attributes with sensible defaults
- Each plugin row is wrapped in try-except for isolation
- Errors are logged but don't crash the settings UI
BUG: AttributeError: 'ScreenshotService' object has no attribute '_platform'
Root cause: In __init__, _get_default_save_path() was called BEFORE
_platform was initialized. The method tried to access self._platform
to determine the save path.
FIX: Moved platform detection BEFORE save path initialization in:
- core/screenshot.py
- core/screenshot_secure.py
- core/screenshot_vulnerable.py
Order changed from:
1. self._save_path = self._get_default_save_path() # FAILS - needs _platform
2. self._platform = platform.system().lower()
To:
1. self._platform = platform.system().lower()
2. self._save_path = self._get_default_save_path() # WORKS - _platform exists
This is a common Python initialization order bug where methods called
in __init__ reference attributes that haven't been set yet.
The package 'PyQt6-Qt6-SVG' does not exist on PyPI.
PyQt6 6.4.0+ includes SVG support by default via QtSvg module.
Users were getting:
ERROR: No matching distribution found for PyQt6-Qt6-SVG
Fix: Removed the invalid package line.
SVG support will work with base PyQt6 installation.
BUGS FIXED:
1. Missing dependencies in requirements.txt:
- Added pytesseract>=0.3.10 (OCR service needs it)
- Added psutil>=5.9.0 (Analytics plugin needs it)
- Added pywin32>=306 for Windows (window/screenshot needs it)
2. Type mismatch in plugin_api.py:
- get_eu_window() documented as returning Dict[str, Any]
- But actually returned WindowInfo dataclass
- Fixed: Now converts WindowInfo to dict before returning
This should resolve most import and type errors users were seeing.
NEW FEATURES:

Changed: Closing quotes from "' to """ to match opening quotes
This was causing: SyntaxError: invalid decimal literal
BUG FIXES:
- Fixed missing 'Path' import in overlay_widgets.py
- Added 'json' and 'platform' imports
ROBUSTNESS:
- Plugin manager now catches ALL errors during plugin load
- One plugin crash won't kill the app
- Detailed error messages with stack traces
- Plugins with errors are skipped gracefully
PLUGIN API SYSTEM:
- New core/plugin_api.py - Central API registry
- BasePlugin updated with API methods:
- register_api() - Expose functions to other plugins
- call_api() - Call other plugin APIs
