Unfortunately I am not sure how to do that. I don't think I have access to the Chinese server? All of the GameHeart modules are unlocked though so anyone can download them and reupload them to the Chinese server if they know how. I am doing constant updates though so it wouldn't receive any of those updates unfortunately...

OK I'll see if I can upload them then!
BTW how can I track if there is an update for GH so I can know I need to update it on Chinese server?

Hmm that is a good question, I don't really post about it anywhere. Most of the updates are really minor, like adding new teams or tournaments to the logos module, or adding new maps to the maps module.

Speaking on teams and logos, you really should make something to include only current logos. I bet a great percentage of included logos are disbanded or teams that dissapeared. Not sure how would you do to check they are current.. but somehow check that the logo still needs to be included. This would make the download smaller and faster for everyone

Are logos even that big of a file individually?? Would removing one or two even make a difference?

Its not that simple to remove logos unfortunately. It's actually a lot more work than just leaving them there.

I see
And doesn't make the mod slow down the game? I've noticed slow response when selecting team logos in the latest versions compared to when it was on every map. Or it is a consecuence of being a mod? Do you plan to add logos forever? Whats the plan? The list will be very long!

Would it be possible to implement something for casters to visually indicate and update their currently estimated winning chances for either player, like a bar or something? I could think of the following benefits:

New viewers will find it easier to follow the game as they have a grahical indication of how imortant e.g. a queen snipe or lack of certain information actually is.
You can go fetch yourself a coffee and when you come to the game you'll immediately be able to estimate the game much better than by just looking at the supply counts.
Rather than try to walk the thin line between overhyping and calling games before they're over, casters can "call" the game by adjusting the winning chances accordingly and still talk about what needs to happen for the game to turn around without seeming false.
With the standard two casters, significant differences between their assigned winning rates would be inherently interesting and worth to talk about even if there's nothing much happening on screen (e.g. during a weird basetrade situation, at the start of the game, or regarding an impending all-in).
Might be interesting to see which casters are really good at judging and predicting the game.
Will make epic comebacks even more (or at least more obviously) epic.

Two such percentage bars could easily fit nearly anywhere on the screen, or even be incorporated into the part with the player names in the top middle of the screen.

The main drawback, or rather difficulty, I see with this is that casters would need to consistently update their assessment of the game. Maybe that's overkill for the job of a caster, I don't know. It would probably be pretty lame if casters were to go crazy about how that one fungal changed the entire game and then not update the winning % bars until like half a minute later.

Or would this be redundant and superfluous anyway? I'd be especially interested in hearing the opinions of people with casting experience on this.

As a caster, I strongly disagree with this idea! Not so much because it would add more work (even though I cannot imagine me doing casting & observing at the same time AND keeping tabs on both mine AND my co-caster's % indicator), but more because well...

Why have any casters at all? When you can just have an observer who will change the win percentage every time something happens? People will figure out the rest, right? I mean part of the job of a caster is to be able to transfer the excitement I feel when I see certain things unfold in-game, onto the audience. I do this with how I use my words, voice, tone, volume etc, just as an actor or musician (yes, I am a musician as well). Having a percentage indicator like this would make half of my job completely redundant and useless. In a bigger picture - this would also potentially erase the casting style differences between many casters, for the same reasons.

Overall just a really really bad idea IMHO.

Does the extension mod for this work with arcade games (ie Starbow)?

You can use a GameHeart overlay with Starbow, however if you're talking about stronger colours and upgrade countdowns then they wont work.

Hello, Could you let it show a floating number (like XP point) which can tell us how many units are killed by a WM/ Banling when they kill units (especially Banling)? Thanks.

I wonder if GameHeart will continue to be used in tournaments after today... kind of a big deal to not be able to resume from replay :/

Yes you can. Somebody probably just doesn't actually know how to use the game recover function and is just blaming it on GameHeart as has happened a few times in the past. If there is a real problem I will look into it but I honestly doubt it based on the previous times this has come up.
