  HYDRA Addon Pack - Installation Guide
========================================

This pack contains all mandatory addons and patches for HYDRA guild raiding.

CONTENTS & INSTALL LOCATIONS
-----------------------------

Your OctoWoW install folder is typically:  C:\OctoWoW\

1. AddOns/ folder contents -> Copy into C:\OctoWoW\Interface\AddOns\
   - BigWigs/       Boss timers and raid warnings
   - TWThreat/      Threat meter (required for tanks and DPS)
   - ShootyEPGP/    HYDRA EPGP loot system addon

2. Data/ folder contents -> Copy into C:\OctoWoW\Data\
   - patch-O.mpq    Raid visuals, HYDRA rebuild for the current OctoWoW client
                   Save it as Patch-O.mpq. Do NOT swap in the GitHub release or the
                   launcher's Raid Visuals download: both crash the client (Error 132)

3. Root files -> Copy into C:\OctoWoW\ (the main game folder)
   - SuperWoWhook.dll   Required hook for extended functionality

STEP-BY-STEP
-------------
1. Close WoW if it is running.
2. Copy the three folders from AddOns/ into your OctoWoW\Interface\AddOns\ folder.
   If those folders already exist, overwrite them.
3. Copy patch-O.mpq into your OctoWoW\Data\ folder.
   Keep the filename as patch-O.mpq (letter O).
4. Copy SuperWoWhook.dll into your main OctoWoW\ folder (next to WoW.exe).
5. Launch the game through the OctoWoW launcher as usual.
6. At the character select screen, click "AddOns" and make sure all three are enabled.

TROUBLESHOOTING
----------------
- If WoW crashes on launch after installing SuperWoWhook.dll, make sure you are
  launching via VanillaFixes.exe, not WoW.exe.
- If BigWigs or TWThreat show errors, try /reload in-game.
- For ShootyEPGP issues, type /sepgp in-game to open the settings panel.
- If you get Error 132 at character select, check if Patch-I.mpq is present in
  your Data folder and DELETE it (known crash cause).
