ApRadar 3 Released - Now Disallowed From Windower Forums

[Bwelch]

APRadar3 - Removed? - Windower

After a few of us talked last night, we felt it would be best to remove it due to certain "features" it included in this new version.

i asked the same thing on IRC. and from the looks of it the "feature" in question is the one called "Activate Pro". Apradar3 now has subscription based features which according to this is a no no.

there are a few other features i'd guess are in question also but this stands out the most.

Including but not limited to current disallowed applications:

* FFXiApp
* XiClaim
* CraftMon
* NASA?
* ApRadar 3

Here is a list of the Pro features that are not available in the free version of ApRadar 3

Overlay Radar

• Camping mode - ApRadar will store the death time for any mob that dies or shows up dead within range. These times will be saved and can be viewed in the ToD broser.

All Radars

• Show All Mobs - Allows you to see all mobs that are in memory even those flagged as dead or despawned. This can be used to check the last position of the mob when it died. It is helpful in telling if a camped mob has spawned if youknwo where it died the previous spawn
• Show Mob ID - Shows the mobs ID. This can be useful in events like salvage where only certain mobs drop items. You can determine the Id and only kill the desired mobs. Also good for finding placeholders
• Nyzul Isle Lamp Order - Pro will show you the order of the lamps next to the name. ie #1, #2, #3,.. etc

Other Bonuses

• Access to the Pro Support forums - I will monitor the Pro support forums daily and work my best to get all issues resolved as quicly as possible.
• Access to Premium Downloads - I have some other applications that I will be adding to the premium only downloads in the very near future.

I have plans to add more pro features as I work on this as well. For example I will be adding the drop mobs for salvage once I can gather enough data for it.

Apnea in my personal opinion is untrustworthy.

If you look at half the apps listed on his forum, along with half the projects he has worked with in the past. It would make you think before using anything he puts out.

But whatever, to each his own.

So what's the free version of APradar3 have over APradar2?
That list of perks you get with pro look like all 2 was missing.. one of them was even in 2 already.

[Stubwub]

The Free version of Apradar 3 has the following:

A Monster/item DB. When you select a mob, you can scroll up to the apradar bar and it will show you info on the mob. It will show you what items it drops, give info on the items, tell you if it's Agressive or not, and what it aggros by. It will tell you what it's weak to/strong against and its level range. Basically everything you would find out if you threw up your browser and went to a wiki to check.

You can browse and search Allah and FFXIwiki from within FFXI. You can search through the recipe DB built into apradar to find recipe info.

It has a new overlay map. Basically, it puts all the mobs you would see on the mapped radar right over your screen, and moves them as your character moves. So if you're facing east and a mob is to the west, the mob will appear behind you. Think something akin to the HUD in a Flying Sim or the likes.

Also, while in overlay mode you can have it show mob info when you select it automatically in a corner. So you don't have to move your mouse up to the bar to get the info.

That's what it has over apradar 2. All of that is more than overkill, and I dont think it's asking a lot to charge 7$ to get those other features. The basic version of Apradar 3 is insane feature wise, and really helps out. If you really need to have something put a NM's name in bright colors, or tell you which is the PH then paying 7$ is the least of your worries.

Fuck, ignoring the whole mob map deal the fact there's a monster and item DB in it makes it kick ass. You could pull the mob radar off it and the thing would still be awesome.

Edited for my horrid spelling skills.

Dear god those free features are nice... the Pro features are nice too but I'm not sure if its really necessary unless you camp NMs pretty frequently.

I can't get the installer to work.

[hypnotizd]

I was going to try this last night but it wanted to download a 200mb dot net patch thing during the install <.< I decided I'll wait to try another time.

[madpersian]

Isn't the 200mb for the map downloads? I think you can get those separately, but I'll have to look at home.

[hypnotizd]

No it definitely was dot net 3.5 patch. It said so while downloading before I canceled. I just thought it was odd that I'm on Vista x64 SP1 with what I thought was the latest windows updates and it still wanted to download and install a patch for it=/

My bad, I missed that you said it's a .net update. Those take forever to install too as I recall.

Windows doesn't have the latest version of dot net installed automatically... You don't have 3.5, which is why it is telling you to download/install them. That's perfectly normal and legit.

All windower needs now is a feature that allows you to adjust drop rates and spawn times, and we're golden.

You know what? Screw it. Could somebody just write a file that can create pieces of armor and put them in my inventory? PLZ???

[Pergo]

some of the pro features sound like the old npctool from the fleehack era.... which i've been looking for forever to help camp almighty apkallu. I might have to check this out and start camping again!

That's really funny, seeing as this has nothing to do with windower and can be run without windower or can be used with SE's windower.

Sorry. I play on a 360 so I'm not completely familiar on how you guys cheat. Is there a way I can use your fancy lamp ordering device on 360? Because man... those things are such a pain in the ass.

Don't bitch when you choose to play on 360 over using your pc. you have 200+ posts on BG, using a computer. Unless your computer is 10 years old, which I highly doubt, you can most likely play FFXI on it. Hell, the laptop that I bought in the summer of 2002 can run the game just fine.
