I been working on an offline app that does the same thing as a website i made http://axyd.us/warhammer/wam_website (list main ingredients) and so far it works well on 32 bit OS's.
I am building it with Visual Basic 2008, it's pretty straight forward to use.
The way you use it is extract the folder inside the rar to anywhere and click on the War Apothecary Magnum.exe (if your paranoid like me, scan it for viruses, trojans, etc..) and click on a button on the left side to open that database on a new window, you can open all 3 at the same time, to close the program close the first window that popped up and it will also close all the other windows.
Don't worry about the notes and news buttons, still figuring out the layout and what each should display.
All the buttons are fully functional.
Originally i made this app for guildies only, but since i been using a lot of addons from curse i decided to share it, at this point i wont give you the source code, it looks a bit crazy with duplicate code on different events and im gonna keep on modifying it heavily.
I got enormous amounts of stuff installed on all my pc's so not sure if there's something else you need to run it, but AFAIK you only need a 32 bit OS (won't work right on 64 bit ones tnx to you know who *cough*M$*cough* and couldn't test it but might also need .net framework 3.5.
This is not an in game addon but its helpful to the apothecary hence me sharing it with y'all.
This app has database modifying capabilities so if you wanna add your own stuff to the database go right ahead, i didn't add any online database updating since i wanna keep it simple as this is my first real visual basic program, it will save it to wam database on the app root, you can also open that .mdb with ms access.
If you wanna leave feedback please send me an email to axyd@axyd.us or contact me in game with handle of Leroytankins on the Ungrim server ,although i play my alts a lot, so probly not gonna find me on, but i check my mail often.
Anyways enjoy.
Redid the whole interface, made it so the databases all all displayed in a single window.
Installation Guide
- Exit "Warhammer Online" completely
- Download the mod you want to install
- Make a folder on your desktop called "My Mods"
- Save the .zip/.rar files to this folder.
- If, when you try to download the file, it automatically "opens" it... you need to RIGHT click on the link and "save as..." or "Save Target As".
- Extract the file - commonly known as 'unzipping'
Do this ONE FILE AT A TIME!
- Windows
- Windows XP has a built in ZIP extractor. Double click on the file to open it, inside should be the file or folders needed. Copy these outside to the "My Mods" folder.
- WinRAR: Right click the file, select "Extract Here"
- WinZip: You MUST make sure the option to "Use Folder Names" is CHECKED or it will just extract the files and not make the proper folders how the Authors designed
- Verify your WAR Installation Path
That is where you are running WAR from and THAT is where you need to install your mods.
- Move to the Addon folder
- Open your Warhammer Online folder. (default is C:\Program Files\Warhammer Online\)
- Go into the "Interface" folder.
- Go into the "AddOns" folder.
- In a new window, open the "My Mods" folder.
- The "My Mods" folder should have the "Addonname" folder in it.
- Move the "Addonname" folder into the "AddOns" folder
- Start Warhammer Online
Translations
When you download a mod, please be sure that the mod is compatible with your translation of WAR. Some mods only work on the US versions, while some only work on some of the various European versions. These variations are called "Localizations".
