Markers
Markers (VF : marqueurs) est une application overlay pour Guild Wars 2. Celle-ci se base sur l'idée d'enrichir le jeu avec des informations utiles plutôt que de recouvrir des zones spécifiques de l'écran.
Comme son nom l'indique, "Markers" propose de pouvoir placer en jeu des marqueurs personnalisables directement en jeu ou sur la carte du monde. Ces marqueurs peuvent être créés manuellement, lu à partir de sources spécifiques et même  partagés avec d'autres joueurs.
"Markers" a été développé dans une optique Monde contre Monde. L'idée principale était de pouvoir faire des annotations directement dans le jeu, vous pouvez donc rappeler où placer les armes de siège, ou pour indiquer sur la carte où un joueur a laissé son golem. Toutefois, le processus de développement a montré qu'il existe également de nombreuses applications possibles qui donnent une toute nouvelle dimension au jeu - Avez-vous jamais eu envie de laisser un message sur une table ou de créer une chasse au trésor pour vos compagnons de guilde ? Avec Markers, c'est désormais possible !

Hi there,

Markers is an app for Overwolf, that enables you to place customizable markers directly into the game world and on the map (examples). It has just been updated to a new version and is now much more stable. Also some new features have been integrated. Here's the changelog:

Features and Polish
•Added several background-graphics for a better visual integration into Guild Wars 2
•Added an option to hide the menu bar (and let it reappear on mouse over)
•Improved the icon selection. Icons are now grouped in categories and subcategories and can be picked from a preview (screenshot)
•Added a notification mechanism to inform the player about improtant events (screenshot)
•Moved the position sharing options to a pop-out menu in the menu bar for quick access (screenshot)
•Added a "realtime" sharing option, that exchanges information with the share server much faster and therefor can be used to quickly spread positioning information.
•Added the possibility to show position markers above the character's head (instead of only on the map). Together with the realtime sharing option this gives you much more oversight where your teammates are (short preview video)
•Added many new icons (colored profession and commander icons, numbers and resource nodes) (screenshot of all icons except numbers)

Bugfixes and Stability
•Fixed several issues that prevented Markers from starting correctly
•Introduced a mechanism that tries to restore the tracking plugin after a crash
•Fixed a bug that caused the world selection in the settings not being enabled.
•Fixed a bug that prevented the mouse wheel from being detected, resulting in zoom on the map not working correctly.
•Fixed a bug that prevented the player from reassigning hotkeys.
•Fixed a bug that could cause an error when retrieving WvW-information for server "Desolation"
•Fixed a bug that caused Markers to crash when opening the map in a dungeon

The update should be delivered automatically. If it is not (even after a restart of Overwolf), please let me know.

Also, with your help either here or in various forums, there's already a long list of upcoming changes. This is a only a loose list of things, without priorization:

Upcoming Changes
•Performance Improvements, especially preventing the "freezing" of Markers for a while, maybe advanced tuning parameters to adjust refresh times for slower CPUs
•Customized Markers on Hotkeys: Place a "I'm in trouble! HERE!" marker with a single keystroke.
•Advanced Position Markers: Attach texts or links to position markers (roleplaying feature to attach character descriptions)
•Remote Marker Placement: Place a marker where you're looking, not where you're standing. This change will come along with a complete disabling of Markers while in structured PvP.
•Mini Map Integration: Mini. Map. Integration.
•Advanced Marker Interaction: Enable mouse hovering or clicks in the game view or on the map to show attached texts or open attached urls
•Custom Icons: Enable players to use their own icons (and possibly even share them over the share server)
•Advanced WvW Timers: Display, since when an objective is hold, not only if it has the Righteous Indignation buff.
•Timer Markers: Display a counter when someone last interacted with or placed the marker ("6 Minutes ago, everything was okay at Ascension Bastion")
•Text notifications: Displayed texts when coming near to a marker (from "Tap those arrow carts!" to "When you enter the tavern, you're greeted with the smell of freshly brewed tea")
•Simple Quest System: "Before this marker is visible to you, you have to interact with another marker elsewhere"
•Detailed Sharing Options: Share a marker only with specific servers or channels.
•Get rid of the edit mode: Seamlessly integrate editing of markers into the game
•Tutorial Mode: Introduce new users to the tool, without having them to read a manual
•Share Server Proclamation: Automatically read the address of a share server from a Teamspeak channel name or description
•Quick Share over TS: Use your Teamspeak's channel chat to share your position.
•Localization: Translations to German, French and Spanish.
