ZEcho Forever

Remember the player. Remember the reason.

A helpful ally, a familiar rival, or someone you would rather avoid—ZEcho helps you remember the players you meet in WoW Forever.

Save personal tags, notes, and favorites, then recognize those players through icons in chat and above supported nameplates.

Player Tags and Notes

• Mark players as Ally, Rival, or Avoid.

• Favorite players you want to remember.

• Save notes explaining your experiences.

• Optionally open the note box whenever you tag someone as Rival or Avoid.

Recognize Familiar Players

Display tag icons above Blizzard nameplates and beside messages from tagged players. Both options can be enabled or disabled independently.

Nameplate icons are skipped where the client restricts access.

Automatic Ally Tags

Friends and previously encountered guild members can automatically receive an Ally tag marked as "auto."

Your manually assigned tags are preserved. Use /zecho sync to refresh automatic Ally tags.

Previous Names

When ZEcho recognizes that a recorded player has changed their name, it keeps the previous name on their player card and tooltip. Search finds the player by either name.

Backup and Restore

Export your tagged, favorited, noted, and fought-player records as text with a checksum.

When restoring a backup, ZEcho validates the data and previews the changes before you click Import. Existing personal tags and notes are never overwritten.

• /zecho export - Open backup export.

• /zecho import - Open backup restore.

• Backup and Restore are also available in Options.

Built for WoW Forever

ZEcho supports full character names, including surnames, and matches unit, chat, and combat sightings to the same player record.

Auto-Rivals uses combat log detection only when the client reports it as unrestricted. Otherwise, it uses a targeting fallback.
