HighLite

HighLite is a third-party desktop client for HighSpell that offers a suite of plugins designed to enhance gameplay and improve access to useful in-game data—all while fully adhering to the rules and Terms of Use of the game. HighLite is not a cheat client; it has been approved by Dew himself and aims to enhance the player experience without offering unfair advantages.

As with any third-party program, always exercise caution when installing software on your device. To ensure safety and authenticity, download HighLite only from the official GitHub repository. Additional resources—such as interactive maps and calculators—can also be found on the HighLite website.

Instructions

HighLite is packaged as an Electron application and provides Linux, MacOS, and Windows support.

Below are the instructions for downloading and installing HighLite on various operating systems. If you encounter any issues or need assistance, feel free to create a support ticket in the official Discord server.

Windows

1. Obtain the .exe file from the latest release.
   • Don't know what to download? See Example
2. Install HighLite
3. You will be prompted by the game client when launching to automatically install any future updates!

In Microsoft Edge, you may recieve a download warning due to HighLite not being commonly downloaded. You can typically resolve this by clicking "..." and selecting "Keep".

HighLite is currently un-signed due to the inherent cost of obtaining signing certificates for software. This results in install and download warnings. If they receive enough players (or complaints!) they will invest in obtaining certificates. You can resolve this by clicking "More Info" and pressing "Run anyway".

MacOS

1. Instructions Pending

MacOS builds go largely untested so they may be more prone to buggy behavior.

Linux

1. Obtain the .AppImage file from the latest release.
   • Don't know what to download? See Example
2. Execute the AppImage.
3. You will be prompted by the game client when launching to automatically install any future updates!
