    Say Hello to Chronokeeper Your new best friend for buff/baron/dragon/ward timing. Or rather, just for keeping timers.

    Chronokeeper is a voice activated timing program. If you say 'activate blue timer'. It does so, and then tells you when it spawns. If you say 'Activate baron timer' It does so, and then warns you 90 seconds previous, 30 seconds previous, and at spawn of baron.

    Same with Dragon.

    You can also do the same for enemy buffs.

    Furthermore, you can set a 'magic word', that you must speak as a prefix to activating a timer if you want to discuss the timer over voice chat and not activate them every time you mention them.

    Honestly, it's awesome. And if you have trouble keeping timers/want to take your game up to the next level, you should use it.

    What version of windows are you using? 32 bit or 64 bit?

    Also, if it's Vista or later, do you have Microsoft.Net 4.0 installed, at least?

    64bit, and I don't think so. Installing it now.

    Bannable if detected.

    Bullshit. It doesn't affect or interact with the game itself in any fashion. It makes absolutely no adjustments to the game at all.

    Additionally, considering that there are UI mods which DO adjust the game and interact with it, that do the same thing mini-map wise, and they have been stated to not be bannable, I'm 100% sure you're wrong.

    It's posts like this that make me want a thumbs down button.

    Well, for enemy buffs, I'm guessing it only works if you have vision of when the buffs died in the first place right? Otherwise, it'd be as Evan Tide said. Still, if it's completely reliant on information you have anyways, then I doubt it'd be bannable

    Did no one actually watch the video? It just enlarges a portion of the screen. He made it for a friend who wanted to have his minimap on a second monitor.

    The useful part of the program is that you can voice activate timers. So I say "gogo gadget red buff" and it starts a timer counting down my red buff, then has a voiceover say "red buff spawned" when it reaches 0.

    The second part of this made my day. I'll probably download this just so that people in Skype or my house hear me saying it and come investigate.

    This thread needs more "magic word" phrases that are awesome like that.

    I got the app, does not work for me at all. If i want to alt tab out to click it it works, but the voice does not.

    It does require Vista or later. So if you're using XP. You could have issues.

    Also, if thats not it, read the website in full, it'll likely contain a fix for your issues.

    Windows 7 64 bit. Ran as administrator, different error this time.

    If i try to reload speech it gives me a "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." error, then mumbo jargon. When I ran it initially, I got a "No recognizer of the required ID found" error. I'll make a video then attach it to an e-mail to him.

    The .net thing worked for me. Just another one of those things you run into 4 months after putting together your own computer.
    Yesterday I realized I never got acrobat reader either.

    Still haven't gotten in the habit of calling these timers out. It is probably an easier thing to remember playing as a jungler.
