Unit parameter editor / Stat Editor by crab [win only]

Hello everyone.
Every day people make mods and maps with hidden mods and i cannot see what mod did with parameters, so I made another stat editor.
This program i made for my own private use, but i hope someone might be interested

5 nice guys downloaded my program
i uploaded new version 2 where was fixed some critical errors

[Arreon]

My prayers have been answered. Now I can start some modding of my own, and this UI program is exactly what I suggested a long time ago.

I really think someone should sticky this because this is the newbie-friendliest stat editor I've come across.

[Reg312]

Instruction How made new map-mod:
1) Open map file (.wz)
2) Click 'Load original WZ stats" in menu
3) Open weapons
4) Change something, but note not all weapons are accesible in game
For example you can rename Heavy machinegun to Arreon's gun
5) Save map

There is one problem. WZ have rule what all maps must have unique names
So i need function to rename maps.
Renaming file not helps so.

you need to rename the .lev file open it and rename all levels as well. Or else you'll get into trouble at map transfer.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE. Make sure every maps have a different name ! Even if it mean ending name with a ridiculously high versionning scheme like "_NRSpV53"

Or just re-compile the map in FlaME.
Hmm, sorry, probably wrong thread to post this sort of reply

[Reg312]

Dont worry i'll change my program code when i'll have time to continue work

Version 3 uploaded.
Bugs expected, so i did not delete link to previous version.

New in version 3:
1) "Compile" function, which includes:
- save results to .crab-files
- compile files to .wz-file
- auto-increase version of map
2) Load mod from one map to another (menu "Load" -> "Load mod")
For example. if you want make NTWMax2 map with Iluvalar's NRS mod you can easily do it with 3 clicks.
3) Stat comparer improved (comparison of 2 modded wz-files)
Added option to filter changed values by percent of change
with this option you can filter small changes
for example, if damage was changed from 100 to 101 you can skip it by setting change percent to 5%
4) Open wz-files by double click (might not work in some cases)

Compile window

any users here? i found 4 downloads of previous version!

This program is the best stat editor I have found but it commits to of the deadly sins of program installation
1) It only installs to its default location (Documents and Settings? whats wrong with Program Files?) and does not work if copied elsewhere (I think this is because some/all of the dlls need to be registered)
2) It hijacks a file extension (.wz) without asking

@Reg312: If you like I could make a NSIS installer for you but you would need to provide me with a list of all files that need to be installed relative to where you wan't to put the install script when the installer is to be compiled and a list of all files where they need to be relative to the dir the user chooses when installed. Other info needed is a list of dlls that need to be registered and file extensions to register with the command lines needed. Basically I'm offering you the same thing I offered Flail when flaME was young, and if you ask him I'm sure he would say that flaME is better for having a good installer

[Reg312]

I used publish method in VS to make setup which provides ClickOnce deployment
I cannot change location of install. it is hiding somewhere in \AppData

i dont know what dll need to register. there is too much dll's, it all happen automatically for me
i can attach Release folder, where program can run without setup and all dll's also containing in this folder

http://www.mediafire.com/file/32xqbw86o ... elease.rar

i think all dll's which not included in .Net 4.0 should be registered

it could be nice if you can make good install with registering extensions, support update version from old to new, auto-load .Net framework

update: i reviwed flame installer. it looks nice

[milo christiansen]

I'll see what I can do

I don't know what Microsoft was thinking when they came up with ClickOnce but it's the single worst install system I have ever encountered. Too bad its also so easy (for the programmer) to use...
