Can you export the list to a text file or something so that sNPCedit just has to read the textfile? It would mean though that you would have to add to the txt file manually when add a new item to the elements.

Here is how I'd implement it:Quote:

-only parse the 1.3.6 server version (eventually client) of it since npcgen is a server-sided file and therefore any npc you add to it will need to be in a 1.3.6 elements.data. In addition, since the npc list is placed before the dialogue list only read the element up to it and then close it (saves porting the complex dialogue list mechanic).
In case the el.data is not found or does not match the correct version, do not display names (aka keep current display).
This way it would let people have the names that match their elements.data used on their server as an extra feature without adding too much to the software.
Anyway this is just a theory, you do whatever you want with it, glad to have the tool as it is already :D:

First of all, I would like to thank Ronny for his easy to use tools :)
I added a feature to sNPCedit : the Coordinates Catcher. The Source code is of course available with the binary in the attachment.
The coord catcher only works with 1.3.6 exe client at this time.
I think it can be improved, since c++/CLI is not my favorite language :)
Merry Christmas !
nice you made it, thank to both of you:thumbup1:Quote:

Not "X" !!! It's "Rotate X" ! And the value can be only between -1 and 1
It looks like -180° and 180° to me if we translate the -1 and 1.
Maybe but not sure:
-0.0 = face to the south
0.0 = face to the north
yess this is what i mean, but still hard to looking where the right rotation for NPC >.< i must turn off world map many times to see it >.<:(:Quote:

this was known a long time ago, sorry for the misleading labels in sNPCedit but i was to busy to change the labels...
sNPCedit v0.9d is out
Features:
- due to the high demand i've added the coordinate catcher from freya421
- coordinate catcher now works with PWI 1.4.2 v456 (to add the tideborn npc & mobs :cool:)
- coordinate catcher was extended to catch the direction
- corrected the labels from "Rotation" to "Direction"
HowTo Catch Position + Direction:
- launch pwi elementclient.exe
- now select a target i.e. your own character, a npc, or a monster
- switch to sNPCedit
- select the row where you wanna insert the position + direction
- click the "get coordinates" button to transfer the coordinates from your ingame target to the slected row
Don't forget to run it as admin under Vista/7 or you'll get an access denied exception...Quote:
