I just updated quite a bit of quests, there still may be a few that I over looked/need to work on

You can take a look at it by clicking my website link in my sig, and going to the myfiles link, or the forums - doesnt matter really.


To view a list of all quests added in here you can look at them here


v2.0.0 screenshot: 2.0.0
v1.0.0 screenshot: 1.0.0


let me know what you think =)

oh ya, you can now install it with an executable, or if you prefer zip files, that way too

pretty soon we're not going to be able to tell the difference between AC and WoW.

Then maybe we'll start to get a comparable playing population.

But I doubt it.

Are you still using the ACVault guides for this?

personally im not using the ac vault info, I am just going by what people send me for now.

someone posted me a link to their webpage that had something just like this, but not complete, so they let me use their files, which im pretty sure used the guides from ACVault

Well, I took a look and some of them are clearly ripped out from ACVault, such as the Acid Axe. I was working with this with someone a while back when I was running the site (over a year ago), but some things have changed since then. If you want to use the ACVault guides, send me a PM.

What does it really matter? It's for the benefit of a dying community, why make it any harder than it needs to be, Para?

Props to you, Anton, for doing this. And I agree with your decisions not to use Maggie -- a lot of her stuff is incomplete and vague.

Personally, I find COD has the best and most concise write ups.

yeah.. the file that he got was probably what we started when ToD first came out and we figured out the inner workings of the files. Be aware that during a patch, if it recognizes that the help file size has changed, it'll re create it, and you'll have to re-install this file. At least that was one of the bad points when we were doing it.

I don't really like Maggie's site for quest writeups either. It's more of a mish-mash of what everyone and their brother sends her. Also, the quests don't get updated, and don't really get checked for errors. I've tried several of the quests listed on her site, and found mis-recorded coordinates. I use them more of a starting point and stuff.

Did you write some ksml and add it to the AC Help file to do this? It looks a lot like it. I didn't really look to far beyond the SS you posted but it looks good and is funtional.

I was getting started on trying to write some ksml for my own use on quests i do a lot of, coords and such.

Nice work.

I will give a try this weekend. Looks quite useful to me as I run a lot of qeusts and know most qwell enough to only require the occasional prompt.

Impressive, I was working on something using this exact same premise for mobs a loooooooong time ago when ToD first was released called Beastiary.

Well done, I was hoping to see something like this come out inevitably, but I knew there would be issues with the whole "copywright" of guides and such.
