Tool for Weapon Graphics ?

[Melandril]

Is there a tool for determining the available weapon graphics when creating new items?

Also, is there a list (sorry, forgot the field name) with values up through the HoT client?

If not, should we start a thread with pictures and field value?

GerogeS has a viewer specifically for weapon and shield graphics

ah, missed that one. Now that I've looked at the application, I do not see where the DB field value is shown. It looks like half of what I am seeking. Where in the tool does the DB field value show?

Since George's tool is missing the information for idfile, I am compiling my own tool now. I spent several hours yesterday taking screen captures of various items. If I finish (or get far enough that I stop taking screen caps), is there anyone with a website who wants to host the pictures (or tool, if I get that motivated) ?

You should look again.

It would have been more helpful if you'd simply said the tool obfuscates the idfile information by passing the data as a meta description inside of the file names.

By chance, are you a linux guy?

[Ganedar]

i wouldn't say it's obfuscated

Correct. When you make a new item, insert a new graphic using string "IT" and number of the item from the tool.

Say you want your new glowing sword to be depicted with a sword and flame graphic, then use the embedded number from "weapon_10404.jpg", and insert into TABLE items field IDFILE, with IT10404
