Idea [Questing]

[Gully]

Would it be possible to create a program that could scan a zygor guide file and compose a quest order based on it this is a extract of how zygor is made.

You can't really extract the quest's objectives from that.

Even worse, that guide doesn't seem to include every 'train skill/spell X on target Y' quests for dwarves. Looks like a pretty poor piece of work.

 

[Hi on Helium]

sounds good. post it when you're done

[bjsaust]

It shouldn't be too hard to just work through it as a reference and then use cowdude's CowQuest2 to generate the basic profile.

 

[papathick]

I've been thinking of the same thing and tried it for a few quests the fact is the info that zygor gives u is basic read the force quest part of this Profile Writing: What is the difference between
If HB could do force questing this would be perfect but there is too much that zygor leaves out that makes it useless.

 

[lickalime]

You could run zygors guide and just make a profile that does the same quests insted of trying to convert it. But that would take a little bit of work to do.

 

[Nuok]

honestly dont understand why people keep brining up zygor and his awful guide...

why would you pay for that when there are better free alternatives World of Warcraft Pro | Brings Game Experience to You!

 

[papathick]

That guide does look nice I didn't know about it. I torrent Zygor so lets just say the cost is not high lol but i like his interface and the guide works good for me.
