[General] Online database for native WC3 icons, models, etc?

[sethmachine]

Hi,

Is there any online WC3 database for native icons/models?

It would list out all the icons/models and their path names, in addition to:

given a path a WC3 icon/model, it shows what it looks like?

Just trying to avoid using the object editor as it's a bit slow on my pc.

Edit: Even better yet would be an online version of the Object Editor (browsable only). In over a decade has no one made such a resource?

Hereby im feeling obliged to say in your case the nature calls and its time for you to please the machine spirits with the performance of an upgrade ritual.

Make sure brush list is disabled.

I've done all the tricks in the book to speed up the editor.

You could try editing the .w3u and .w3u files directly. Though I think you would need to convert them to slk format, but if it's really that bad I'm sure Excel lags less than the Object Editor. If you don't have Excel you could try this.

I am not trying to be mean or anything, but maybe consider getting a new computer? Like you said it's been over a decade. Though I think you might be able to use a text editor if you know the exact object editor files. Nobody has ever needed a fake object editor for this game. Not to mention it'd take so much time and basically well it would be a waste. Which would answer your question to why nobody made one.

Edit: Oh I just thought of something, http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...-weaponless-model-creator-250169/#post2506851

I forgot about that sorry, looks like someone has made exactly what your looking for. Suppose it's solved.... Though really object editor lags that much for you?

I suppose you can try this out:

And see whether it works for you. It isn't online, but it is separate from the editor's default object editor, and I assume it would be faster.

Oh that is cool, I never saw that before Purge.

Ah wow many thanks Purgeandfire.

Hopefully this will work on OS X with Wine ^^

Edit: Argh unfortunately I can't get it to work with Wine.

Now how can I browse these .slks to extract the data I want?

Let's suppose I'll write my browsing script in Python and go from there.
