UO utils 4.8.8

[Max]

Max submitted a new resource:

UO utils - fiddler, region editor, uo architect

A long time ago I started tinkering with fiddler. Modified it to support UOP for several file formats (including animations) and multi's.
In addition I also was modifying a region editor. For a part its now also a map editor.
This all resulted in a modified Ultima library which both use.
Once I tried UOarchitect so as I had it modified for this Ultima library I put that in too.

All is source only for the moment.

This is one ancient version of uofiddler 🙂

I use this Fiddler to make everything I need to customize this ANCIENT game called Ultima Online, it can even write UOP for my custom animations. Woohoos!

 

[AsYlum]

great 🙂 but most of it is there probably as I try to maintain uofiddler GitHub - polserver/UOFiddler: UOFiddler based on Ultima SDK it's a tool to view and alter almost every UO 2D client file. Source code is released under the Beerware license. for past 6 years 🙂
If you want you can send PR my way or let me know what you need 🙂

It handles multicollection.uop read and saves, it auto saves to arts .uop gumps .uop does the anim.uop editing and saving. so it does most of what yours has not done for the past 6 years.

Look I posted this version to provide the code to those interested.
I started in 2019 changing the uofiddler code which at that time seemed to be abandoned.
I added features as I saw convenient for my purposes, but I've no list of features that I added. So I cannot tell what the current pol version is missing compared to my code base, also because the pol version does not execute on my system.
I'm developing on linux which means that I'm stuck in the past for some things. winforms is not available after net48, so the newer project files do not work for me. That also means that for some tabs I changed things for performance reasons because some things are incredibly slow in mono.
Bottom line: my environment is incompatible with polserver fiddler

But some things I worked on at some point in time:
- getting animations in UOP format (including some handling of animation sequences, although those are not supported by classicUO)
- search for forgotten animations
- some utility to adjust the position of animations (e.g. for mounts or if they are just weirdly positioned)
- some code to cross reference between animations/gumps etc.
- did something to the 1555 color conversions
- getting formats to save in UOP automatically (sometimes by calling the packer sometimes by adding native saving code)
- alternative format for exporting animations (as sets of images) including the data of the animation sequences
- a test feature exporting data chunks from mul/uop files

I'll see if I can add the executables, that should simplify trying this version

Ok my intention was to inform not to attack. The project is opensource you can help if you want or just send me some info what you would like to see or create an issue 🙂

Someone posted this on discord channel few months ago, maybe this will help.

Hopefully useful to someone, sharing my files to run UoFiddler in Linux Mint 22.3 (Upgraded to WINE-11.0) with a .desktop launcher. Works like a champ.WINE9 had issues with the

Ok so are you saying that this can read the .uop animation files? and export them and I mean not the enhanced client? just plain jane classic client uop animation files it can actually read them?

 

[Max]

yes it can, there is a special export 'folder'. that creates a folder with the data for the export (frame pictures some sequence info, gumps...) that folder can also be import again.
