Dawn of Light

Hello,

Merec, long time maintainer of the tool Merecs Item Creator, release publicly the sources of his tool.
This tool is a GUI for creating new items. Thanks Merec, we are a lot to enjoy it !

The sources (vs2008/.net 2.0) are available on our SVN: https://dolserver.svn.sourceforge.net/s ... ator/trunk

About the tools in general, i invite you too eventually think about developping tool to enhance server creation, database gestion or objects creation.

Ie, you can find on SVN the Gandulf's Quest Designer ( https://dolserver.svn.sourceforge.net/s ... gner/trunk ). This tool is no longer compatible with the actual DoL code, although it was good, it could allow users to easily create quests.

Feel free to PM me to have the status and the priority of the following suggestions if you are interested:

- Create some models/IDs viewer
- Create a Spell Creator
- ... (w/e you could need for improving your preferred server team work)

You also can join Merec to give an hand on IC (pm Merec), or ask Tiv if he need stuff related to PacketHandler. Theses are 2 tools in production. Or, of course, code for the DOL svn.

Have fun with DoL !

/cheer!

As you know I've been using the quest designer lately and have seen some of the errors. The past day or two I've been digging through the quest designer files and have actually fixed some of the problems. On my version it no longer uses (byte) for realm, it now uses (eRealm). And it works.

Now I'm going through the regions and renaming them to make it easier to pick the correct region. Example: The main TOA regions were listed as Trials of Atlantis Terrain and there were three of them listed but it didn't tell which realm they were. I've modified mine to read Trials of Atlantis Albion, Trials of Atlantis Midgard and Trials of Atlantis Hibernia. And at the moment it seems to be working as well.

Still trying to get the Guild field to work better but haven't come up with anything for it yet.

Graveen, when I get done modifying these files do you want me to send them to you to add to .svn?

Yes DF, thanks.

There are no pbs for giving you access to svn commit; for itemcreator, the thing to be vigilant is the fact the public DB is not exactly matching the storm's one on some fields.

Next release, the public will match columns of the private; i'd like to include some public contributions for having a decent release.

/bow mate.

I haven't finished it yet but I went ahead and uploaded the regions file in the user downloads section for those wanting to see how I'm setting it up and how much easier it will be to select the correct region for your NPC's. When it's completely finished I'll get all the files to you for a more complete release. Enjoy!

thx mate do you want svn commit access ? pm me a sourceforge account we can speak of this. Can you send me your IM account ?

New version uploaded. Regions are finished and eRealm issue fixed. Disabled the guildid for the moment till I can come up with a better fix. Got tired of having to manually remove the "Part of (quest name) Quest" from the mobs. You should be able to add your quests to your server now without errors. Enjoy.

@Graveen, my MSN Messenger is dragonfire72@hotmail.com. As far as .svn I'd have to learn how to that since I don't know a thing about it. Cheers!

as its always is ... zip files in User releases are corrupt this is an old issue ... maybe i should create a cronjob which generates a mail every hour for eteaw ^^

Shrug, I dunno why it happens. Graveen discovered something during the site move, something about the permissions for the file changing or not being set right, perhaps he can remind us.

yes strange. Afaik nao all files got correct permissions. i'll have a look to see why it is corrupted, perhaps replacing the php lib used to compression (but tbh i doubt b/c the files are not compressed during the transfert but before). Perhaps the site is compressing the files but not adding extension, thus they are compressed twice (xxx.zip.tgz) ?
