A3CharEdit utility v0.0.2(Beta)

I would like to thank all those guys that share their knowledge especially about the various binary files of the server. Whoever is willing to help, pm me, need help with the binary files.



Ok guys, here it is, download it and TEST it. DO NOT use on your live server, make backups first!!!!
And make sure you are using the 219 database, at least that's the one I use.

You have been warned!




V0.0.2Beta Features:
a) Character editing , stats, shues, inventory, wear items, skills

b) Itemsdb.txt , this is a CSV file to hold item codes and descriptions which are used inside the tool to display item description for inventory & wearing items.
(If anyone updates this file with known item codes pls share it)

c) specials.txt
another csv file in which you can store your frequently used item codes e.g. G10 sets, RN, Lartek etc. You can copy paste these codes to inventory or wear.

d) shues.ini
Self explanatory

e) Orphan chars detection
Detects chars that their corresponding account was deleted or renamed.

f) New account creation

**NOTICE**
Right click on Charname when in list window. You will get 2 options, one is new charedit and 2nd is the old m_body editor.

tested this utility and found it very helpful. It much better than that tedious SQL editing.

I have started working on Updating the Itemsdb.txt list. once done, will upload here.

Same for specials

You asked for the level wise and option wise codes for the shues, to get those codes i think we will have to take a level 1 shue ingame, then make it level 2 and note the code then for level 3 and so on... If someone have the codes then he/she can share otherwise, i will try to get all the codes.

Same goes for the skill codes. For every skill you learn the code changes so that will make huge list of codes. It's better to include the codes for skill scrolls.

There is one problem i faced with this utility.
We can change and update the shue eqip and skill info in database, but i am unable to edit my stats i.e. attack, defence etc.

Wz can be edited but it is not getting saved to database, after saving it shows wz same as before. Same for the char level.

Other things are good, but it will be nice if you increase the size of text that can be displayed in the Special items Tabs...
because if i write "Grade 10 HK Set" then it display only "Grade 10 HK".


Now coming to the Itm file editing part.
Can you add some option that on clicking "Edit ITM file" it ask the user to select some ITM file and then conver the selected file, that will be great if you can do it.
Same for the Monster Info and Maps

I mean , how do we understand how the options on shues and skills work, just like with items with bless or mount %
e.g.
a) +65536 = + 1 level to shue
b) +1048576 = All 6 attributes
etc.

Doesn't happen to me, can u send a video or show me somehow?

Wz can be edited but it is not getting saved to database, after saving it shows wz same as before. Same for the char level.
Same here, it works for me, check the screencast I attached to this post

Other things are good, but it will be nice if you increase the size of text that can be displayed in the Special items Tabs...

Will make it user resizable

Now coming to the Itm file editing part.
Can you add some option that on clicking "Edit ITM file" it ask the user to select some ITM file and then conver the selected file, that will be great if you can do it.
Same for the Monster Info and Maps
ITM option is still under development, it should be a disabled menu option. At the end it will allow "mass" editing of ITM files, storage in database and re-generation.

Imagine to have a "special drops" event which can be scheduled!!

Items, Monsters and Maps I have no idea how to read yet, need help with these files.

Cos you haven't read the instructions about config.ini and haven't set the options properly.
