Hello everyone,
Most of you probably know about Gorgon Explorer (
gorgonexplorer.com) already. I've written an app (
PgJsonParse.exe) that has similar features, but works offline, and also can look for the latest version of game files. No need to wait for the site to be updated anymore!
There is however a drawback, this app only works on Windows (sorry Linux and Mac users).
It supports the following features:
. It can detect what the latest version of game files is, and download them on your computer. You can use them offline until the next patch.
. As long as a patch doesn't break compatibility, the app is therefore immediately up-to-date after a quick download.
Build Planer:
. You can select skills and for each slot, look at available mods and plan a build.
. Builds can be saved and reloaded locally, as text files.
. You can also copy them to the clipboard, which make posting them on a forum a lot easier than if you had to write it down yourself.
. In addition to mods and skills, you can also pick specific items, like your preferred armor.
. Choosing armor is done by assigning to each power in game a weight, and items with the highest weight appear at the top of the list. For instance, if you're a Fire Mage but also like to have Armor on your gear, you can assign a weight of 1 for each +Max Armor points and a weight of 100 to each fire damage % bonus.
. These weights can be saved in profiles, and you can play with different profiles to balance your gear. The app comes with one built-in profile, "Best Armor".
Advanced Search
. It's called "advanced" mostly because your can use AND and OR in the search terms (see instructions in the search page).
. The search is rather exhaustive, and returns as much info as possible. For instance, if you search for 'Lemon' it will return all food made with lemon, all buffs they give, all quests that talk about lemon, lemon work orders, etc.
This is a preliminary version, and I already have several improvements in mind. It probably also has several bugs; if you find one, please PM me!
Known issues:
. In the build planer, the max skill level is not used until a new skill is selected.
. The max skill level is not saved with builds.
