Since ArenaNet/NCSoft made a lot of changes to the server structure and API this program does no longer work. Development has not continued on my part and since I do not play GW2 (that much) anymore I will propably not continue.
This application creates notification for upcoming in-game events in form of popups (like Steam messages, nothing game blocking).
It is necessary that you play Guild Wars 2 windowed or in "Windowed Fullscreen" mode.
Furthermore are you required to change the map manually.
In-game you can just press CTRL+Backspace. A dialog will pop up to easily search a map by it's name.
The Guild Wars 2 API may allow to find your position in the future. Until then there is no other way.
For information about, well..., everything make sure to visit the wiki!

Tested only on Windows 7 64bit w/ Java 1.7.0.
But should also work with Java 1.6.x and/or 32bit system. Don't know about MacOS or Linux, though.
This application uses the official Guild Wars 2 API and isn't even near complete.
