[vb2008] WoW Armory Browser

I made this just simply so it wouldn't have me having to type out or run through my bookmarks to find my characters armory sheet and compare others etc.

Its a small program. Clean. No keyloggers (i promise). Spyware or adware in it.

I have lost the source of the program but its not very hard anyway. It's just simple Browser Direction commands and such.

It has a Character Search, Direct Character linking (Realm/Character) and works on the following webs. US, EU and KR. and some silly 'oh shit button' (i needed that cos of college etc)

I used it for college and gave it to a couple of friends and they told me it was good :)
The bug i noticed in it is the text appearance on some labels happen to change colour because of what operating system you are using. Another bug is that, if the armory page hasn't been uploaded yet (fully) then it will crash and not respond if you close it down to early.

There is no further development to this program. Unfortunately i just cannot be arsed. But there was gonna be a new feature for items and quests that will link with WoWhead and allakzam etc.

Oh the in-program browser is Internet Explorer. >< sorry

update:
fished out the source code.

Form4.vb is empty lol.

I practically just gave you all the whole source, you can use it to create your own or simply use mine. I don't mind :)

WebBrowser.Navigate("http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=RealmVariable&n=NickVariable");

Suppose you could say that, but it only gives you direct link to WoW Armory unless you click adverts that take you away from it.

What do you expect it to do anyway? Make you cookies?

This is a college project?

Nice work mate.
Much eaiser then having to open Mozilla with WoW at the same time.
I actually did need this to check for guild members, so thanks.

No. Just something i did randomly cos College Computers are so slow, so instead of all the fessy need to open Mozilla and type the url out so slowly, i just made this.

well no offence but anyone can do this.

Either way, it's still helpful for others.
And still belongs in the section as it is coding.

So, stop whining.

to those who know how to code
and knowing it as a fact, not everyone can.

Commenting on a showcase:
Showcase is for constructive critizism. In other words, you may post that you dislike certain aspects of a showcase, but only if you also include your opinion on how it could be better!

unless you are gonna post something useful then i want to hear it, if not and its all like 'lulz, browser again rofl, its shit ppl know how to do it xD lul' then you can get out :)

This IS useful for those who play WoW, although extremly easy.

Yep. I use it basicly all the time at college at sometimes at home (if Mozilla isn't opened) and yeah, its simple to create, but it's also a simple program.

If i can or anyone here wants to, they can use the source and write out new features. I might start use it to make quest/item search etc :)

XZeenon - you call yourself a programmer ? Be ashamed of yourself.

Suicide - nice work, how about an upgrade - enter character name and/or dropdown/enter realmname ? For search on character items etc.

Yep that's possible, but i'd have to enter all the realm lists from the EU, US and KR :P but i suppose its just simple copy and paste from a external website.

Thanks for the idea! Really appricate it :)

XZeenon please.. second thread I've seen you flaming someone else's work.
/thread.

Nice work, eventhough I dislike VB, I don't give you the blame for using it.

Please use constructive criticism.

[QUOTE=WulfgarXX;4779902]XZeenon - you call yourself a programmer ? Be ashamed of yourself.[QUOTE]
