any advice, or direction on how to come by this tool would be awesome! i know theres websites that use some code that tells the server status to them and it updates constantly... its gotta be doable!
Thank you,
Steven
At a very minimum it might have been nice to provide a link to the website you want to watch. You really do expect us to just do it all for you don't you?steven.baron wrote:I was really hoping to find a server status tool for Eve Online. I honestly am terrible with computers but would love a lightweight server status thing. Anyone that hasnt ever played eve should try it out, you may get addicted just like me!

What he is saying is read that all through first, not study it like your life depends on it, but just go through it so you get the "idea" of how Rainmeter works under your belt. Then come back here and he and I'm sure others will be glad to walk you through getting your skin working. It's just that without at least some exposure to how Rainmeter works under the skin, you and we will just not be speaking the same language.steven.baron wrote:im from the american public education system. reading!?! haha alright ill give it a shot. if i have issues ill let you all know. if i get it goin ill share with you all! play eve!
