This definitely could be useful, and works properly.

There already is tool like this...but this one looks more user friendly...hmm...are you thinking of adding also armor counting inside?

Oh and it works on XP normally

 

[aaron]

this is great for balancing games

 

[DarkNezz]

pretty useful, go ahead man!

 

[BloodStorm2262]

Sounds good to me, though it would be better if it could be included as a plugin in something like UMSWE or JassNewGen pack so you could use it right in the editor.

 

[Solecompanysole]

Nice tool there is one like yours but i think yours batter

 

[Vosty]

As soon as I saw this in "newest tools" I had to try it. It works quite gracefully, and uses up a small amount of screen space, memory, and RAM (My computer rides on a low amount of RAM) so using it is no pain at all.
I like this 5/5

 

[koosha]

Thanks


useful tools!

yes, i will be adding armor calculation as soon as my exams are over

and thanks to all other posters

Calculating DPS is constantly something a mapper has to do so this tool is very useful to us. However, when I tried to type in real number (e.g. 2.7) with a decimal for Attack Speed it would not recognize it as one and instead treated it as 27 seconds.

One more criticism, why not do base damage, number of die and sides per die as the parameters instead of minimum and maximum damage? To know the min and max, we have to calculate them first or go in game to find it. Whereas the parameters I suggested are actually worked with in the editor.

Anyway, good tool and I hope to see it improve.

awsome! about time someone made something like this. it'll be good for all the mega WC3'ers

 

[ManDraKer]

hey got error running your tool. "The Application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135). Click on OK to terminate the application". Im using XP. What does the error means?

 

[Frotty]

hm how to get the mas dmg?
You should may add that dice thing from wc3

Report Bugs!
Tested it 20 Times....
If you set ASPD (Attack Speed) to 0 the Result is Infinity, and If you set the ASPD(You know it Read Above) to 0.(number) the Result would be the same as if you just type that Number itself.

Example - ASPD : 0.5 , Min DMG : 10, Max DMG : 20, Target = 1, Result = DPS : 3.00
While If i do ASPD : 5, Min DMG : 10, Max DMG : 20, Target = 1, Result = DPS : 3.00

I found a Way to counter this..... but fix it!

Instead of 0.(number) You need to type 0.(Number) + 0 Example : 0.60 to make it have the right result.....

Seems reall nice although Ive never thought about putting in DPS for a unit

Found a bug, maybe. When i put min dmg 10 and max 12 and ASPD 1 the result is 11.00. But when i put min dmg 10 and max 11 and ASPD 1 the result is not the expected result 10.50 but 10.00

Ohman found another one -.- Min dmg 1 max dmg also 1. ASPD 0.75 in the end i got 0.01 WTF

thanks for reporting,
honestly i didn't expect that much bugs

tried it several times, get 30.00 and 3.00 DPS

get the same, everytime i try, will get fixed soon

got 1.33

seems i made something wrong in the calculatoin part, sorry for that

 

[Sarj14]

You should put a feature where it has the Recommended Health where it will recommend a good health for something it is attacking, something like that.

 

[Nherwyziant]

Is something wrong?

I put at Min Dam 5 and Max Dam 5
Target hit 1

and attack speed to 1.

It results 5 DPS

but as I set attackspeed to 0.5

DPS is 1????!?!?!?!

Should it be 10?

And i put attackspeed 0.1 the DPS is 5? WTF?

 

[Numerion]

also...could you please add min.damage and max.damage output? so you could see what is the possible least and possible max damage ?

 

[Licheus]

Excellent, as the perfectionist I am this will certainly come in handy. This will be great when you shall balance the cost of towers (based on the DPS) in TDs for example.

More simple and useful applications for the people! =)

 

[Danny]

How to use this programm?!!!

 

[Saishy]

I wish this had the "number of dices" things instead of min and max damage.
I mean, min/max is too easy to calc for using a external program.

 

[Gabyu]

Does anyone tried to put , instead of .?
Because on the figure there is a , not a point O.O

 

[Gabyu]

Do you atualized the version of the calculator?
Because for me work perfect.

 

[The World Is Flat]

Any ide when your adding the dices?

 

[Crave.]

Any idea when your gonna fix the bugs where it "hates" decimals?
-Put Mix and Max Damage with 1.2 and 1.4 but get error.
-Ignores decimals for attack speed.

 

[Stormage]

This program is useful in the sense that you can use it faster to calculate DPS 3 times faster than Microsoft's Calculator. It saves you bunches of time with the calculations. IE: ( ( [Min dmg] / [Cooldown] ) + ( [Max dmg] / [Cooldown] ) ) / 2 = [DPS] in Calculator takes a ton more time than just typing them in the fields.

Usefulness: 5/5
Appearance: 2/5
Layout/Understandability: 5/5

MFatGG, sorry, but my tool does a lot more than yours, so your is useful only when someone doesn't want extra features.
