[QUESTION] [SHARE] VB ADT Parser
« on: November 05, 2011, 10:22:59 pm »
[center:jhwq2tkg]Hey Modcraft![/center:jhwq2tkg]



So I have this piece of code a friend made for me which parses most of the info in ADTs into plain info you can actually read x)
Anyway, so you're probably wondering why this is both a question and a share. Well, its pretty simple. I intend to continue developing this program so it can become a more up-to-date version of Taliis, with the normal Windows theme. Don't get me wrong, its not cause I don't like Mac or Linux or w/e. Its just that I don't really know anything about any of the universal languages :S
Anyway, so back to the share/question. This is pretty much the explanation why...

Why question: I need someone to help me make it possible to also save the loaded info back into the file I loaded it from
Why share: Because its a pretty nice piece of code which I don't mind if anyone takes and try to improve too :P

Of course if anyone want to join me in the creation of this new "Taliis-like" program, you're more than welcome! :)
If this becomes a success, hopefully Steff, Jack, Schlumpf or whoever is in command, will agree to making it a featured project or something. But until then, DEVELOP ON! ;D Rofl, silly slogan xD

So, the download for the source:

Thanks

I hate vb. Its the worst language i have ever seen :)

And you can found all file definition on wow dev. Wiki. So just start out and write a saver.

And the other question is. For what do you need a new taliis only for adts?

I intend to make it a lot more precise, and also less buggy than Taliis. And probably only ADTs, yes. Maybe also WDTs and WDLs and such, if I can figure out how to get those implemented correctly...

I don't understand you though, Steff. What's so bad about VB? Really? I think its just been because you haven't gone detailed enough into the language then :/

Thanks
Keta

But you realize that there is nearly no difference between C# and VB nowadays, right?

If, then learn C++.

Or use c# and not VB. VB is one of the only languages where you have to use a different syntax then an other big coding languages like c++ c# or java.

And as we implement step by step everything into noggit I don´t think we need such a new editor :) Why not start c++ and join noggit dev team :)
The only thin i use taliis in the moment is create new adts and calculate wdt files. And this are the next functions i want implement into noggit. So i don´t need taliis anymore.

Well tell me the estimated hours per day I need to spend on learning C++, and for how many days, to become able to do development on Noggit.
Exactly. I don't really have the patience to sit 6 hours a day, for 2 years... x.x Sorry, but I just dont :/

Thanks

You may want to chat with the current developers on some IM before one can think about doing that.

But if you want to do a good and working alternative for Taliis you must do exaclty this. Sending many time in coding. It to me 2 weeks to start first work on nogit code that lead to something. And i started with c++ becaus of noggit. Before i only developed in c# and php.

What exactly do you mean "sending many times in coding"? I don't quite understand what you mean :s

You have to spend many time in coding to do a good alternative.
