Genesis community editor
« on: February 13, 2013, 01:16:39 pm »
I want here document my work on the genesis community editor.
It will be a webbased editor for databese stuff. The MySQL once for trinity and the DBCs aswell.

I code it for Maruum that also people with less tech skills can create content without the need to acces the DBs direct or have special rights on the server.

First I implemented a DBC Manager to import and export DBC files into MySQL tables. This way the editor can acces both data sources with one way. Also because the DBCs are then located in a real database its transaction save and much faster.

The design will change during development I think :)

In this part you can create the definition files that descripe the DBCs that get used to import and export. Also relations get placed there in future. The green marked tables are still included and can get exported again.

Now a main concept of the editor will be that every data you create get documented in a relations DB. So if you creat a NPC only you and the admins can access it.

Also you have a list of your NPCs only what give you much more clearness in UI. You will be able to search all NPCs in future and ask for acces this to place own story on them.

The last thing I finished is a custom NPC importer. It use the ModelViewer .chr files to create all the Database entrys from. So you can create a NPC in ModelViewer, save the .chr and the backed texture and just import it by give the npc a name. All the other values you can later change in the NPC editor. Like health, level or class.

Next will be the quest and gossip editor.

Looks very impressive, it could be very handy in dealing with "administration" side of modding.  Centralized and Simplified, two words that makes life easier…well usually   ;)

It looks more simplistic that SQLyog or Navicat and definitely more user friendly that working with MySQL directly (simplistic in a good way).  Good work
