    Windower Plugins: Problem

    ::edit::
    Realized I accidently overlooked the new spells/abils by searching for wrong spell name - new stuff is in the new resources update, however continue reading down if you want to help out as we REALLLLLY could use the new Spell and Abilities "Common" files which has been missing for years now.

    If we find those 2 files we wont have to do the whole "find the new ID's for Recast" game anymore, and spells wont come up with wrong information like skill level / type / element / target types in SpellCast etc.

    Note the app im talking about is "MassExtractor.exe" in the Program Files\Pebbles\POLUtils folder.


    Here are the files exported by POLUtils for the CURRENT known files - These formats DO NOT match the Mass Extractors, but it shows you what the 'data set' looks like for what we want.
    Note these files are large as POLUtils dumps weren't conservative on xml format size.

    Ability Names file:
    http://resources.windower.net/rawdat...es_english.xml

    "Common" Abilities Info (this file changed YEARS ago but never found new one - this is why we had to do manual updates for abilities for Recast)
    http://resources.windower.net/rawdat...ies_common.xml

    Spells Names File:
    http://resources.windower.net/rawdat...ls_english.xml

    "Common" Spells Info (Also changed years ago - very old data)
    http://resources.windower.net/rawdata/Spells_common.xml


    And I'm at work so i cant check atm... So if someone can open POLUtils, Data Browser, then manually navigate to said files above and double click them and see if they bring up the same data set above as Abilities_English.xml etc

    and yes it should be just the names, but it would be very nice if we can find the common files too and stop having to manually update all these spells and abilities for the info such as what "type" and "Skill" things are and ID's for recast.

    The common file for abilities has all the indexes for Recast (Spells use ID where as Recast uses Index, so the stuff in the name files doesnt match what Abilities use, and need the Common file to map ID <-> Index)

    hot, thats the correct files!

    Now if we can get pebbles to release an update to POLUtils or pass it on to someone who will keep it active.... My friends talking with pebbles about that atm.

    Now if we could only find the common files

    Help text for the top bar, abilities (74.dat) here: http://pastebin.com/aeG76qqv

    Edit: They match up so it's always Abil > Spells > Abil Desc > Spell Desc > new language

    i feel stupid, I just realized the new spells/ja's are still in the current files and are in the new resources. I had searched for Stone VI and Water VI (instead of just V) mistakenly and thought they weren't there
    But still really need the new common files with all these new spells/abils coming out.

    Thats too much to manually update.
    Radec is working on it in FFOChat IRC if anyone wants to also join in.
