Thanks!

 

[Darkgamma]

It's not universal if you can't calc how many cookies Arthas

 

[Damage]

Wow, this tool has turned a whole lot more awesome since last time I looked.

 

[SeriousEnemy]

The above is the default size. Once I extend the width JUST a pixel, I can see it.

Same for Windows 7. I needed to extend the width just a little bit to see the button.
Version: 4.5.1

Nevertheless it's a nice and useful program.

Great work bro! I using it to generate colours

 

[DarkLordX]

Sounds very useful, I'll download it immediately

Thanks to you both for rep.

P.S. I'm working on next version.

 

[T3rm1n4tor]

It works on Windows 7 !!! !!! !!! +rep

P.S.: How did you make this tool?

Thanks for rep!

That is stupid question!
I needed Microsoft Visual Studio, some brains, some math knowledges, some formulas and interest making this tool.


EDIT: Tool updated to version 4.6

 

[Crave.]

Its great now! But I dont understand the purpose of multi DPS.
+repz all da way

Thanks!
The purpose:
DPS can be used in units balancing, thus people need to compare different units' DPS. And it's easier to compare something when you see it in one place.

@ text colorizer, here a few suggestions

1. to the left of the 'clear text' button, there should be the following color options: that gold color wc3 uses for everything, that green used for lumber, red used on crit, green used with shadowstrike (slightly less important), no color, every defined custom color, so it generates plane text, i know thats what the 'colorize all with white' is suposed to be for?, also it should only colorize the selected text

2. little divider thingys that show aproximately how big a tooltip is, for screen space, so you can make sure what you type doesnt extend to the next line where you dont want it to, in most cases

3. a nice little clipboard that remembers the last 3-4 copy/paste, and/or 'texts'

4. and its probably to much to ask but spellcheck? there are a few opensource spellcheckers out there, all ud need is a dictionary file, to get wrong spellings (im not even asking for suggested spellings, just something to know if something is wrong) btw what lang u code it in?

great program btw, not to many other basic tools are needed

 

[Crave.]

11th place in the top 20 tools, nice...

Ok. I'll make something like that. What about every defined custom color, I'll not make it, because it requies a lot of space. There will only most important colors: gold, red, green, white.

2. little divider thingys that show aproximately how big a tooltip is, for screen space, so you can make sure what you type doesnt extend to the next line where you dont want it to, in most cases

That will be not very easy, because I must measure tooltips' width in Warcraft and apply Warcraft 3 font, for maps with custom font size will be wrong.
But I'll try to do something.

3. a nice little clipboard that remembers the last 3-4 copy/paste, and/or 'texts'

Tool already has copy/paste functions. What did you mean? Little box with showing last copied text fragments?

4. and its probably to much to ask but spellcheck? there are a few opensource spellcheckers out there, all ud need is a dictionary file, to get wrong spellings (im not even asking for suggested spellings, just something to know if something is wrong) btw what lang u code it in?

I'll search some spellcheckers. But I don't think that I make it in close time.

And very big thanks to you for this useful comment!!!

11th place in the top 20 tools, nice...

Really? I've looked and it was on 13th place.

 

[Crave.]

13th? Either I counted wrongly, or it changed the past few days.

EDIT: Now its 14th

 

[Bloody_Turds]

@defined colors, i mean, when you choose to make a part of your tooltip, lets say black, then that exact black would show up there for you to choose from, since odds are if you use a color, your gonna need that same color more than once

@ clipboard, yes exactly, it should save copys of all the text you input into it, there should also be a way to paste your text, already formatted, and then it could add the colors to it. (if you hit,generate text, it gives you the formatted code to paste in right, well you should be able to reverse this process, to get your old tooltip back into the program, for modification. (it would detect the codes, and automatically apply the colors)

thanks for taking input ^^

Ok, I'll make color buttons I've said, and buton "Recent Colors", which when clicked shows a drop down list with recently used colors.

@ clipboard, yes exactly, it should save copys of all the text you input into it, there should also be a way to paste your text, already formatted, and then it could add the colors to it. (if you hit,generate text, it gives you the formatted code to paste in right, well you should be able to reverse this process, to get your old tooltip back into the program, for modification. (it would detect the codes, and automatically apply the colors)

About clipboard, I'll see what I can do.
Now you can copy and paste colored text (and I found that you can also copy colored text from MS Word).

I already have tried to make that programm automaticaly applies color codes, but it was hard and I made for now only detection and removing colors. But I'll try until I'll make that.

thanks for taking input ^^

No problem =)
I always liked to get some good advice.

 

[sanushama]

Great job!
but I could not open the calculator, gave an error when I open the calculator

 

[kimberker]

Spell Calculator

Spell like flame strike, Full Damage Deal
Full Damage Interval
Half Damage Deal
Half Damage Interval

Is there a tool like that, that counts the damage deal using the spell?

 

[zVictorW]

lol why i can use this tools? need put the tool to where?

 

[D.O.G.]

Great job!
but I could not open the calculator, gave an error when I open the calculator

It's most likely that you don't have installed Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5


TOOL UPDATED:

Version 5.0
- Completely redone calculator's interface (Damage -> Dice, Dice -> Damage, Damage -> DPS, Dice -> DPS calculators combined together; Armor -> Damage Reduction, Damage Reduction -> Armor combined together)
- Temporary removed new color dialog in Text Colorizer because it didn't generate all possible colors
- Temporary removed search for user-typed color-codes
- Added option for selecting code types in Text Colorizer (Warcraft III, vBulletin, Html)
- Changed hotkeys in Text Colorizer
- Added "Colorize with Color 2", "Colorize with Tooltips' color", "Colorize with white", "Colorize with red", "Colorize with green" buttons in Text Colorizer
- Now Text Colorizer generated text with codes directly to Clipboard
- Changed a bit Variants dialog
- Now doesn't calculates exact values (For example 7/13, 5/3, etc) because useless

 

[Vladadamm]

Very nice program, need to aprove it !

But they're is an tooltip error : "Sides per Die" (in dice<->damage)

And mbe add in the "dice <-> damage" a "Armor/Damage Reduction" zone (with a tick for active it), for know how many damage we will deal on an enemy with some armor ^^

Thanks for comment!!! Long time was waiting for it...

In next version I'll merge "Dice <-> Damage" and "Armor <-> Damage Reduction" tabs and add "taken damage" field.
(Also I'll improve color dialog in text colorizer, and maybe in next-next version add color code applier(with it you could edit old tooltips))

But I don't understand what error you meant? In "Dice <-> Damage" and "Armor <-> Damage Reduction" tabs there are no tooltips! If you have meant that error appeared when you done something, please describe, what you were doing, and what numbers were typed in fields.

 

[Vladadamm]

A text error. "Sides per Die" instead of "Sides per Dice" (in dice<->damages tab)

 

[D.O.G.]

A text error. "Sides per Die" instead of "Sides per Dice" (in dice<->damages tab)

Oh..

But in my object editor there is written "Sides per die:".

Or there is mistake in editor too?

 

[D.O.G.]

Updated.

Version 5.3
- Added Registry Fixer (Registers most Wc3 file extensions, changes Wc3 resolution to your screen's and enables Local Files)
- Added Serious Sam FE/SE color codes to Text Colorizer

Version 5.2
- Now in "Text Colorizer" color codes are automatically parsed when text is pasted from clipboard
- Now in "Text Colorizer" when copying text to clipboard color codes are automatically generated

Version 5.1.4
- Reduced program's filesize (now 87.3kb, was 169kb)

Version 5.1.3
- Added button "Check for Updates"

Version 5.1.2
- Improved "Damage Base", "Number of Dice" and "Sides per Dice" calculation

Version 5.1.1

- Now in new color dialog color palette automatically resizes

Version 5.1
- Added capability to apply color codes in Text Colorizer
- Added new color dialog in Text Colorizer
- Renamed from "Wc3 Universal Calculator" to "Wc3 Universal Calculator & Colorizer" because new name fully shows tool's capabilities

 

[GreeN!X]

Can somebody check if they can download this tool properly? I can't seem to download this specific tool at all.

 

[Arad MNK]

Great Job!

5/5

 

[Dat Ansin Doe]

Well I guess I'll have to use my old computer to run this program. Works very weird in Windows 8.1

 

[Daffa]

Please, a Mac version

I think it's useful. I'll test it myself later.

 

[EdwardElric]

i'm very interested in the formulas & their derivation for the damage calculation, especially when min & max damage is given, how the base, dice and sides are computed...
reason is, i want to create an Excel sheet where i write desired min & max damage while Excel generates working base, dice and sides values.
so, for normal units (no heros):
min = base + dice
max = base + dice * sides
base = ? max - min ?
dice = ?
sides = ?

ok... little bit math:
base = min - dice
base = max - dice * sides
base = base
min - dice = max - dice * sides
now after which one should i solve? sides?
min - dice - max = - dice * sides
-min + dice + max = dice * sides
sides = (dice - min + max) / dice
and now what?
or do i have to use binomial formula? to get the dice * sides apart?

edit:
instead of advanced maths, i guess the following will also do it:
condition:
- keep dice > 0, because when dice = 0, attacks are completely disabled!
decided for following rule:
- keep dice = 1
resulting formula:
- dice = 1
- base = min - 1
- sides = max - base

Google reports this as malware. If you can update it, it'd be great.

Google reports this as malware. If you can update it, it'd be great.

Now updated! Check please with your antivirus.

Later on, I will rewrite this using Java (to be OS-independent, excluding registry part) and probably more modifications will be needed due to Wc3 Reforged possible changes.

 

[eejin]

Is no longer reported as malware and works properly.

 

[Deleted member 247165]

A very useful tool !

 

[Watsuby]

Just used it for the tooltip colorizer, great tool.

Not sure if I'm missing something but it would be nice to be able to flip between raw text and processed text.
