RE: The Jawa Toolbox - Alpha - Update v1.1 - 10.05.14

Hm, not really sure. Before I released it, I edited a bunch of code throughout and didn't check everything due to lack of time.

Mighta screwed up somewhere, I know there are some bugs floating around.

Gonna run some tests in the coming week.

Did you try what I said in the PM though, about adding an extra cell? (One cell more than you get from automatically loading the .pob).

Anyway, the more information, the easier it'll make my job...

No idea then, can't think of anything concrete with no extra/specific information. Hopefully I'll start having time this week again and I'll push out some patches.

RE: The Jawa Toolbox - Alpha - Update v1.1 - 10.05.14

Just an update, 1.2 is coming in the next week or so, I'll most likely have a lot of time to work on this now, all bugs plus more will be fixed along with some changes. After that, I'll probably rewrite the whole tool in c#, cleaner and more efficient before I release more features and editors, I might still add some stuff to this on the side, though, unsure atm.

Structure documentation is done for a lot of files now, so I might code in a whole array of .IFF types before I rewrite completely. Documentation for the values still needs to be done, I'd really appreciate if anyone is willing to help, it's hard to code and test things at the same time constantly, time just isn't there for everything.

Not sure if it will make it into 1.2, but I'm aiming to write a new .tre viewer/extractor, that lets you grab all of the versions of a file, without having to look through each .tre individually to see if it is included. Sadly because of how .tre files are structured, after publish 17, they split the .toc out of it, so I can only do this smoothly for files from pub 1-17 and custom preCU .tre files, anything above 17 would be pulled from the .toc that comes with the NGE. I only have the last version of the .toc, if anyone has older .toc's, I'd greatly appreciate it!

I'm also playing with the idea of making a separate tool that creates more 'finished' or complete things (Complete NPC's, texture 'packs' where you select everything you need and it creates the needed files, .eft, .sht, .pal, etc), where as this is is more of a detailed inside the file specific editor set. Think Droid Factory vs Jawa Toolbox.

Current changelog (There still is a major bug in both the .SND and .CEF editor when you save, totally broken apparently):

      • The Save Dialog now contains the Filename of the currently opened file, in the filename Textbox.

Thanks. :)

Update should be out tonight if I manage to wrap up, maybe tomorrow, unsure right now. I keep finding bugs and thanks to Lasko for giving feedback on .WS and Sytner's knowledge, I think I found what caused problems with Cells in 1.1.


Edit:

Fixed a new array of .WS troubles, it 'should' be good now. Had a nasty bug in one of my converters.

Current .WS changelog:

.WS
  • Fixed the File Associations not opening the .WS Editor.
  • Fixed Object .IFF links not saving after having been changed.
  • Fixed an empty string being added to the OTNL chunk.
  • Fixed 'Cell' nodes receiving the wrong OTNL string.
  • Fixed nodes being marked green without having been changed.
  • Changed the default X axis for 'Cell' items to 1 from 0 (Based on all the other original Cells).
  • Fixed the structure of nodes (Thanks to Sytner!), 'Scale' removed (I had the wrong documentation), Cell ID added. Axis should now be correct, too.
  • Fixed Cells not having a Cell ID.
  • Fixed certain .WS files giving an error at load.
  • Fixed a rare bug created wrong FORM lengths (1-2 per file) on some .WS files getting saved.
If I can get a couple more things done, I'll release tomorrow and start the rewrite, I think.

Yeah, had more .WS problems, but they're finally all ironed out, still got some tiny stuff to add, but I'll try to get it out today, tomorrow the latest.

RE: The Jawa Toolbox - Alpha - Update v1.22 - 15.07.14

Fixed another small thing. (v1.22)

Fixed the way the Quaternions were being read (Originally XYZW, it is now WXYZ), also switched the order around for it on the UI to WXZY (based on how it's displayed ingame).

Also fixed an error on load if a .WS was opened via double click.


Edit:

Found bugs in the .PRT tool, unsure where exactly, but it leads to a faulty save. Looking into it.

Seriously, I have this pinned to my Start Menu lol... I have only used the IFF editor so far, but it is a really great tool, Timbab!
