I just made an installer for Release Candidate 1 of LAK 1.5, you can download it from http://ac.ranta.info/LockesArmyKnife

* Added global inventory including a virtual paper doll
* Added tinkering advisors for melee weapons and covenant/olthoi armor
* Now will use Great Mana Charge as well as charged Major/Greater Mana Stone
* Output color and target can now be configured
* Shows the amount of players currently online

The global and character inventory are now both saved to a database and you can set it to automatically add items if you don't wish to manually manage everything.

IMPORTANT for those who tried the beta I posted a few days ago: You must delete all .sqlite files from the LAK settings folder before installing the new version because the database format changed and for performance reasons I could not add code that would check the existing database and convert it to the new format.

If you experience any problems, please let me know.

The installer is missing a dll - if you have VI2 installed and get an Exception from LAK at login about sqlite3.dll missing, copy it from the VI2 installation directory to the LAK installation directory.
Also when switching characters you might get an uncaught exception from the .NET framework (in the message you get it says something about autoTimerMSU_Tick). Clicking on continue in that message should let you keep on playing without any loss of functionality.

I will make a new installer that fixes both of these issues in an hour or so.

So far it looks great , love it makes the putting together of new armor sets so much easier.

RC2 installer available at http://svn.ranta.info/repos/decaldev/tags/LockesArmyKnife-1.5RC/lockesarmyknife-1.5RC2.msi
It is strongly recommended to update to that version if you have RC1 installed.

[If you downloaded the above file right after I posted it and Decal says <no DLL> for LAK in the plugin listing, please uninstall LAK, re-download the installer and run it again. For a few minutes I had a broken installer there. Sorry.]

I get the following error when try to install: I have Vista 64bit.

This installation package could not be opened. Contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package.

Hmm strange. Does the installer for the old version work for you? http://svn.ranta.info/repos/decaldev/tags/LockesArmyKnife-1.1.1/lockesarmyknife-1.1.1.msi

I zipped the files for the RC2, you can download them from http://svn.ranta.info/repos/decaldev/branches/beta/LockesArmyKnife-1.5RC2.zip
If the 1.1.1 installer works, simply unzip the newer version into the directory you installed to. Otherwise, extract the zip to a folder of your choice and then add the dll using the "add -> browse" in the decal plugin list.

The inventory feature is a very nice add to this plugin.
The search functions are very easy to use and useful as heck.

I do have a question about the inventory output.

When you do copy to clip board it only will paste the one item that is selected.

Can the entire inventory list be sent out as a .csv file?
That would be the ideal setup for me.

thx

I will add exports to several formats in the future, but likely not before the end of the bonus xp weekend (iow: in the week after the thanksgiving).

If anyone wants to speed up the development, donating decent no/low wield imbued weapons or maybe some decent celdon/yoroi/amuli to me on VT will probably cut down the time I need to reach my level goals there and thus give me more time to work on decal plugins wink

Oh, almost forgot: Is there any interest in an offline inventory browser with possibly additional features (eg a way to attach pricing info to items and build trade lists; or an automated "set builder" where you select the spells you want and it tries to select the items from directory so you get as many of those spells with a minimum amount of items)? Decal is a bit limited in what one can do AND the more I add to the UI ingame, the more resources the plugin needs, even when not visible, so I would like to keep the ingame UI at or near the current size.
