Wh32Edit 2.0

[Ghabry]

After a long time finally a new version!

It's still not completly finished but imo it's stable enough to release the first Beta.

To make it short all differences/features compared to the old version:
- Tabs (= editing of multiple armies in one instance of wh32edit)
- Header and Savegame Header editing
- Regiment from Template (Mikas WH2Edit had this since ~10 years)
- Other minor tweaks

Changes only interesting to developers:
- Uses ARM Parser class shared with WARTBED
- Export and Army Editing Panels are implemented as Plugins
- Qt toolkit instead of wxWidgets
- Much better code (Whole code is written from the scratch, nothing from 1.0)

No huge feature requests please!

I found a bug: I opened a single player save game, make an edit, save, shut down WH32edit.  Now the save game is unloadable with dark omen (though still openable via wh32edit).  I'm using the MinGW version.

A few of requests:

The font in the older version was nicer.

The vertical troop attrib was easier to read (dunno why)

Can you give access to all 6 item slots.

Can you add spells and spell books to the item slot please.

Thx for your feedback.

Could you tell me the exact steps that reproduce this problem?
And I just found another bug using the Save As Button (If you mean this one):
The file extension is always set to .arm. So if you do a save As darkomen.000 it is saved as darkomen.000.arm, looks like the filters need a change (and All Files (*.*) is missing, hm).
The window titlebar is also not updated after a Save As operation, another bug.

Just tested it under Windows 7 and XP and I see no difference between the old and the new Wh32Edit. They look exactly the same. The differences I notice are: Smaller gaps between the controls and the text alignment is different in the controls (In the new version the text is placed one pixel too low (so it doesnt look centered anymore), seams to be a qt bug...)

The vertical troop attrib was easier to read (dunno why)

Looks like I have to provide a second view option.

Can you give access to all 6 item slots.

The army file has 6 item slots but the game ignores them and only uses the first 3 :/. So this would make no sense.

Can you add spells and spell books to the item slot please.

Yes

The development of Wh32Edit is still going on and I made great progress.

One recently finished feature is translation-support. Help your non-English speaking friends in modding Dark Omen by translating one of your favourite modding tools.
Translating the whole program will take around 2-4 hours and the translation tool is foolproof. No programming skills required!
Contact me now to get further information and the latest Wh32Edit dev version (to test your translation).
I expect interest from the countries Argentina (Spain), Belgium, Denmark, Norway, Poland, Russia and Sweden.

why u dont upload it at homepage?

also it doesnt work for me with "Export TO" function

[Ghabry]

Because I wanted to finish some other features first.
And it has some critical bugs like e.g. corrupting Savegames.

That the export function is broken is strange btw. I'm sure that it worked before o_O. And in my private version it works too...

Wh32Edit 2.0 Beta 2 is out!
I updated the Download links in the first post. Enjoy .

As usual: Report any things you dislike or if the program should behave strange or crashes.
I don't accept bug reports for the Battle Results Panel. This one is a bit broken...

Changelog:
- Fix Savegame editing
- Allow any value for costs, not only multiple of 3 (abuses a Bug in DO )
- Display graphics for Banners and Magic (Items)
- Added Spells to Magic Item Database and missing banners to Banner DB
- Undo/Redo for Regiment Operations (Add, Delete, Move Up/Down)
- Added Language Support
- German and Polish language files (bit outdated, more up to date files in next release)
- Added Battleresults-Panel (bit broken in this version)

[Ghabry]

And Beta 3 (Link in First post as usual)
Havn't planned another release soon because I dont have much freetime at the moment (and so made no progress with Wh32edit) but I had to fix a huge bug. Thx to Erebus/Nagash for reporting it.

Changelog:
- Fix Copy Command
- Correct Levels displayed for experience
- Update Database
