Tracker Add ons
Occasionally a new feature will get added to the Tracker that is either quite large in file size or requires additional code that needs to be separate from the main project. These are add-ons and are available as an extension to the main project. Information on how to install the add-on to the Ironmon Tracker and any required files/downloads will be available on this page.
Version Compatibility: v0.6.1+
This feature add-on allows the Tracker display the lead Pokémon in your party as a 3D animated mode, opened in a separate transparent window (Bizhawk) or by creating a GIF in the tracker folder (mGBA). You can add this window/GIF as a source to your stream setup and display it anywhere on your overlay.

Download and extract the required files, using a program such as 7-zip or Windows -> Extract All
-
Open the extracted folder and locate the
pokemonAnimated
folder -
Move the entire
pokemonAnimated
folder to your Tracker by placing it in the/ironmon_tracker/images
folder: -
Reload the Tracker script in the Lua Console, or simply turn it off and on again
-
Enable the Feature:
-
Bizhawk: Toggle the "Animated Pokemon Popout" setting in the Tracker Extras menu, which you can access by clicking the Gear icon near the top of the Ironmon Tracker -> Extras -> Options.
- If this option is highlighted in red (or your theme's "Negative Text" color), then the Tracker doesn't detect the
pokemonAnimated
folder. In this case carefully go through the previous steps again and make sure this folder is in the right place, extracted out of the zip file, and that you've reloaded the Tracker script.
- If this option is highlighted in red (or your theme's "Negative Text" color), then the Tracker doesn't detect the
-
mGBA: Toggle the option by entering the command
OPTION "9"
into the scripting console. The option number may have changed, so double-check. You can check if the setting is enabled under theGENERAL SETUP
sidebar menu.

Finally, check out the Usage Notes below for adding the animated pokemon to your stream layout.
Bizhawk
- Currently the 3D Pokémon models can only be drawn from the bottom-up on the pop-out window
- Use
Window Capture
when adding the pop-out window source to your stream setup. Recommended settings for the capture are:- [Emuhawk.exe]: Animated Pokemon
- Capture Method: Automatic
- Window Match Priority: Window title must match
- Capture Cursor: OFF
- The pop-out window uses a
Magenta
transparency color key. You can use this same color as a Chroma Key filter in your stream setup. You may need to tweak the filter attributes a bit to get it just right, but a good starting point is:- Key Color Type: Magenta
- Similarity: 300
- Smoothness: 80
- Key Color Spill Reduction: 100
mGBA
- mGBA's lua scripting does not currently have the functionality to open the 3D model in a pop-out window, instead an
AnimatedPokemon.gif
file will be created in the tracker's folder for the lead Pokémon in your party. - You can add this GIF to your stream layout as an
Image Source
in OBS/similar. - This GIF will already have a transparent background, so you don't need to worry about Chroma Key filters.
Version Compatibility: v7.3.0+
Extensions allow the Tracker to load and execute custom code that other users have written. These extensions (code file packages) integrate with the Tracker script to allow for any number of customizations, whether they are new features or improvements to existing features. Developers can create and share their own extensions with ease. The possibility of what these scripts can do are limitless, have fun coding!
While custom extensions are not part of the main Tracker project code, they are upgrade-safe! This means that future Tracker updates won't remove these extensions or customizations.
The following extensions have been verified by the Tracker project team.

- Move the contents of the extracted folder to the
extensions
folder found in your main Tracker folder - Click the Gear icon on the Tracker screen to access the settings, then click the "Extensions" button
- On the Extensions menu, make sure to enable "Allow custom code to run" (if it is currently disabled)
