***Beta Version Ready***
-Send me a Private Message to get a copy!

~This Version includes a working Decorate Menu, only a few features still to hook up but it is as complete as seen in video above~


I need a few people to help find/fix the names of items/multis and land tiles as they were never right from EA!
(This isn't hard, just time consuming, I spent about 4-5 hours today and it needs more work)
(Some stuff I didn't know what it was which means investigation, to safe time I was just calling a lot of them misc)
(Np if no one does, Overtime I will get all the names perfect, my OCD will take care of that)

Doesn't use the UO Files < I did this to prevent them messing the tool up in the future, and yes, works with 2d client! I'll PM you a beta copy, this is still in testing, so please report back bugs or suggestions via pm!
 
I just use the wipe command if needed when building, but just thought if any one new to UO or building it would be a nice added-just an idea of course and yours is looking great :)
One SS shows the wipe button and the next one shows the target bounding box

It looks awesome.

It'd look more awesome if you didn't use Comic Sans :D

My feature suggestion would be the ability to add buttons for your own commands.

It is funny you mentioned the font, I changed it today to corbel, but still not final till I launch it then I'll probably be stuck on a font!

Suggestion:

Is it possible to make the hue apply to the Currently Selected Static Preview Window. So we can see how that static will look in that color Prior to placing it?

I think this the color helps define memory muscle on locations of commands....what do you all think?

This is so really awesome! :) Plus with this not reading any uop files, a huge plus. The search feature and now the maps really make this program so complete

I just wanted to say this publicly as it would take too much time thanking each tester in pm's!

THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOO much for testing and giving feedback, without you the release would have had bugs and issues, the community will unknowingly be in debt to you all for the time you all are saving them!

Thanks again for helping with the beta testing!

Open Pole : As of this video, you double click map to pick location you wish to travel then hit go to get a target for player in game!

1 . Would you rather Double Click map and get in game target immediately and have Go button used for Marking favorites?

2 . Keep it like this and Mark Favorites in game by player location?

3 . Mix of 1 & 2 (Leave comment to how you'd want them)

Staff Command Request : Please post top 20 Commands you use!

I'll make the top 20 plus a few of my own if not mentioned as hard coded into tool, I'll leave another equal amount as custom commands you can enter at will into the tool!

This is perfect, my last post reflects the good links and what Sareus posted matches the file prior to my post, thanks for removing the others, it was confusing!

+1 for open sourcing...just saying
Click to expand...


I usually am good at making back ups and such, open source will come but not while I work, I'm a loner! But I did find a "bug" oddity I never knew with windows, if you cut a file then when pasting, get warning that another file exists, do you want to copy over etc etc, then cancel out by clicking on the background, you'll loose the clipboard, essentially loosing the file as the cut doesn't cancel! That is how I lost the file, and it was when I went to back it up which I usually use copy, not cut....Arg!
