Thread: zDD - a Damage/Tanks/XP/Heals parser for Win/Linux/MacOSX

  1. #1

    Lightbulb zDD - a Damage/Tanks/XP/Heals parser for Windows/Linux/MacOSX

    As the title says - zDD can parse and show you in-game (using a chain of scripts) the Damage Dealers list, the tanks list, the HEALERS list, XP/SK/AXP/Research stats as well as your PvP duel/solo/team scores.

    Get it here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5329566/AO/z...inc_source.zip
    zDD is written in Java, so you'll need it installed as well (you are likely to already have it installed anyway)

    All the info on how to make it run is in the Readmeh!.txt file, so don't skip it.

    version 1.11 is out (March 6th, 2013)

    • fixed: compatibility with the patch that moved the Prefs folder to %AppData%
    • removed: /shop is no longer available due to the new market interface.




    Note: zDD was originally developed by me for personal use only, and a way to learn Java & programming, but after a pretty large number of people showed interest and asked for a copy... I gave in

    On the site, the heals screenshot seems to be borked (shows damage instead) but might be just my hangoverness.

    Looks cool, gonna try it anyway.

    Finally releasing it huh? Guess that means I don't get to look cool anymore with people asking me "wow where'd you get that parser!"

    I'm confused. I set up the window to log all the info. I set up prefs.ini to the right chat log. But running the zdd 1.00.jar does not create any scripts like the readme says. What am I missing?

    Never mind. I just made a mistake copying the directory info.

    This is that parser that does criticaldmg.setDamage(100000); at start huh?

    No, just kidding, nice work!

    When I do the "tank" script it shows damage taken by mobs, not people. Is that intended?

    there are two separate tank scripts one for mobs (/bbb & /bb) and one for people (/vvv & /vv), just use the other one

    Ahh, I see. One more question, then.

    Is there any procedure I need to be aware of when I switch to another character that zDD is set to monitor? When I log my doc, it still appears to be trying to show information for my enforcer.

    I see you've skiped my Readmeh.txt file
    * The program will only parse the last changed log from the list
    if your Doc's log path is setup correct then it'll show your Doc's stats (assuming your Doc was the last toon who's log has changed)
    or... did you run the parser after doing whatever it was with your Doc ? (as I said before zDD isn't running in the background, you run it when you need it to parse)

    On the contrary, I read it about 5 times. And I did all that already. I triple checked to make sure the log paths are correct before I even posted. And I ran the parser each time I tried to use it.

    I looked again and found the trouble. You and I apparently interpret the abbreviation "alt" differently. Thanks again for the condescension.

    Where am I patronizing you ? Those are the most "can't make it work" reasons I've found, that people simply fail to supply the correct path to the prefs file or are thinking that the parser's working constantly in the background.
    As I don't know you, I have no idea what your knowledge of PCs is, so I can't know to what extent of detail I have to go through explaining it.

    p.s. what was the issue then ?

    I take offense with your assumption that because I have questions, I have not read the readme file.


    1 ----------- number of alts for zDD to monitor (it'll ignore everything after twice that number of lines)
    MyNameIs1 --- name of the 1st toon to monitor (the next line is this toon's full log path)
    C:\Program Files\Anarchy Online\Prefs\ACCOUNT_NAME\Char##########\Chat\Wind ows\Window#\Log.txt
    MyNameIs2 --- name of the 2nd toon to monitor (the next line is this toon's full log path)
    D:\Games\Anarchy Online\Prefs\ACCOUNT_NAME\Char##########\Chat\Wind ows\Window#\Log.txt


    This section sends conflicting messages. It implies that if I enter in the chat log information for two characters it will work just fine. "1 ----------- number of alts for zDD to monitor" backs up that theory given that everyone has a "main" and other "alts". However, after reading it many times over I realized that it was ignoring the information for the second character.

    So, essentially, you gave all the information that was necessary yet I believe it could have been presented a little more clearly. I could not frame my earlier question any better because to my knowledge I had followed your directions to the letter.

    Guess you're right, we are using the term 'alts' for different things...
    for me toons = alts (your main being one of your alts), but that's just me

    all in all that line:
    1 ----------- number of alts for zDD to monitor (it'll ignore everything after twice that number of lines)
    means the overall toons count - be they your main and/or alts

    Sounds like a cool little parser. I'd use it, but I don't play AO anymore. But good job. I remember heals used to be impossible to parse or something. Obviously you called Tom Cruise.

  19. #19
    It only parses the heals that are visible to you - heals made on you and heals by you
    kinda useful for tanks - seeing who's healing them and who's plain slacking and such

    Well, now that I got it all sorted out I rather like it. It gives me a lot of nice options. Thanks for making it!
