@astronautzack
Thank you for your bug report :)
It's missing from http://warframe.wikia.com/wiki/Aura for some reason, that is why I missed it...
I'll update the data later today.

EDIT:

Data is now updated with Loot Detector, restart jWarframe to download the new data build.

Never heard about your java tool. now giving it a try!

Will come back for a first batch of notices/suggestions later ;)

 

------------

First Edit:

2 days now i use your app for testing, quite happy with the layout of it.

Thank you for sharing it with the community :)

 

I'm glad to see your app is abble to pick those random rewards alerts from this new event ... hope it will catch them all :)

 

About the requests, a few things i'd like to know/suggest:

- First where are the settings stored? I copied the app folder, to create a "dont bother me too much" set for, mainly, potatoes and the few things (loot radar and triton helm) i dont own. sadly, this second jar lauches with same settings. Could they be stored in the app folder? So 2 folders mean 2 settings?

- Nice we have a sound alert. Could be possible to set different sounds for different alerts? Could be different tabs then, but would like to be abble, then, to create custom tabs :)

- About custom entries ... can we create our own filters? Like, for example, i would like to create alerts for oxium alerts, or argon, or a new item that hasnt been included in your filters?

- A way to disable the popups "stop alert"?

 

--------

Edit 2:

There are several other auras that could "pop" any time in alert/invasions rewards. they appeared shortly in the transmutation system before being removed (https://forums.warframe.com/index.php?/topic/126550-psa-unintended-modaura-inclusion/#entry1505385).

Those are:

- Affinity Amp

- EMP Aura

- Laser Deflection

- Pistol Amp

There may be more, but those are the ones i remember

Thank you very much for your feedback! :)

 

1) Settings location, see the online readme: https://code.google.com/p/jwarframe/wiki/ReadMe#Settings_location

You can run jWarframe with the -portable command line argument to save settings in the jWarframe folder.

This will not work in the windows programs folder, though.

Ex1:

java -jar jwarframe.jar -portable

Ex2:

You can also add -portable to a windows shortcut. just be sure you add it after the last: " (quotation mark)

 

2) custom sound for each item, would be possible, yes. but, still only support wav files (Added to the ToDo List)

 

3) By default, you get an alert for all alerts that is not added to the ignore list. You can add "free text" to the ignore list as well: Go to the Ignore tab and press add or simply click the ignore checkbox in the table for the alert you want to ignore.

 

4) There is no way to disable the "Stop Alert" message, as that is what stops the sound, when jWarframe is not minimized.

 

5) I do not think there is any chance they will pop up again... You will get an alert for them if they ever pop up, though, as they are not part of the filter set...

 

6) If you like you can make your own tabs and sort the data the way you like: in the settings location (see above), there is a folder named "data", it's pretty simple:

data_categories.dat = makes each tab [Name];[image Width];[image Height];[Type Color - only use the ones you see]

data_*.dat = contains the data, one name per line

data_version.dat = contains the current version

Be sure to backup your changes as jWarframe will overwrite them when new data is available.

played with settings, didnt ruin the app. seems i'm good to go :)

now going to find icons for my new tabs, and images for custom entries!

(yep, i just try to add all "accidentally released auras" in the filters ;) )

Edit: done, and it works, cool :)

i moved the alternative helms to their own section, renamed skins to weapons skins. moved vauban to vauban. added argon and oxium. added all the potential auras i could find to the auras.

too bad i have no graphical skills, my icons suck :p

Small feedback: the size % is not saved in settings? all tabs come back to 100% after restart.

@Tazmanyak

Good, just, remember to backup it all! I

 

If you send your data files to my email: niklaskr@gmail.com I'll consider adding it to the main branch, so you do not have to mod them each time I update the data files...

 

There was a Cosmic Specter alert today as well, I'm not sure if it will just be rewarded as part of the current event or be added permanently, if the later is the case they need to be added to the data set as well.

 

Yes, images size does reset on restart, but, I'm probably going to change the drop down to a slider that is faster to use. You can also use scroll wheel on you mouse + ctrl

 

Thank you very much for your effort! :)

- i will certainly send them to you when i have a setup i consider really good. Right i just moved things, have to add the latest auras, find better icons ... so yes i will be pleased to do so, but when i'm happy with my config :) This will certainly be after your next revision. i'll redo from scratch :)

- images size, no way to save the size? i'm quite happy with a global 50% :D

- You're very welcome, thanks to YOU for the app ;)

@Tazmanyak

1) You can always start out from scratch by deleting the data directory and restarting jWarframe (it works with the images directory as well)

I look forward to see what you end up with...

 

2) I could save the size, I guess, would you prefer per tab or just a single global setting?

 

3) I always say that it's the feedback that fuels the development. I do not generate many ideas by myself, so I see it as a cooperation between the users (that supply ideas, bug reports, and good spirit) and the developers (that supply the code).

About the size save ...

I could live with a parameter i have to enter manually in any of the files ... i dont need it to be diosplayed in the UI. i think it would be better to have one setting per tab though.

 

Currently, the only colors available in data_categories.dat are GREEN, BLUE, YELLOW, ORANGE? That's just to be sure there's not hidden ones ^^

 

About the tabs icons: did you create them by yourself, or found them somewhere? Desperatly trying to find "more" as my artistic and graphic skills are nearly zero :p

 

 

Suggestion level:

I have two different app folders, with different settings. Why? because when i'm available, i like to know about most of the resources, auras, nightmare mods, and almost every important alert so i can let my clanmates know. But there are moments i just want to know there is a potato, or this damn Triton helm, or this never-seen-before alert i could wake up for.

So that's 2 folders, two settings, and i switcj between apps manually.

I dont know if i'm alone to do that ... but could it be a "cool" option to have 2 set of settings, and an easy interface switch option? right clicking on the systray icon?

 

About the "one sound per tab" previous request: lets imagine i have one sound for each potato. And an invasion pops with one different on each side! What sound will be played? You could consider this ... if you ever add this feature: some kind of priority? or play both sounds? (that would be the best option imo)

 

I noticed a cool thing: if you delete a tab png in images folder, or rename it, the app just does display text label. very cool thing :D

Also, fact that spaces are not an issue in names, just use _ in png name.

 

Well, that's all for now! have a nice sunday ;)

Zoom size:

I'll make it per tab, then. I do not think most people can be expected to edit data files, so, It will be saved whenever it's changed...

 

Colors:

RED, GREEN, BLUE, YELLOW, ORANGE, GRAY are all the colors ATM. I can add more, but then I need to update the jWarframe.

If it gets more common to edit the data files, I may change it to RBG colors, instead

 

Tab icons:

I created them myself from in-game screenshots (It takes a bit of time to make each, though). You do not have to worry too much about the graphics, if you send me the data files, I'll create them for you, if you like. I also got some unused icons...

 

Ignore Filters (Save/Load):

That is a great idea! Added to the ToDo List

 

Sound alert:

I added "Play all matching sounds" to the "Custom sound for each tab"-feature on ToDo list

 

Thank you for your feedback, I'll try to get it done doing next week...

Have a good Sunday, as well, go get all them epic alerts that is up ATM.! :)

I send you an email with my customized data + images in a zipfile :)

 

edit: you should remove your email in your post :D

As of today, it seems that deatmax site is offline.

I no longer see any invasion in jwarframe. This could be a bad issue ... do you rely on deathmax api to pick invasions stuff?

Maybe you could try add content.warframe.com/dynamic/rss.php as a secondary information source?

 

Edit: Dathmax android's app still displays Invasions data. Maybe you should contact deathmax directly to know how its api is working?

Sorry! Was upgrading my server, should be back now.

Yes, it is :)

DE should really hire you to develop a stable reliable api to all warframe users and developers :p

 

Audeath, i send you a Pm, there's a small issue i just noticed on deathsnack's ;)

Posted (edited)

@Tazmanyak

None can beat deathmax's API. That is a fact...

So DE really have to step up Its game or it's just pointless for them to create an API :P

 

I still haven't had time to review your data changes, I'll let you know as soon as it's done.

 

@Audeath

Thank you for providing support for your API in this thread :)

hello, it's me again!

i come back with a few suggestions, that came to my mind this week ...

 

as jwarframe uses deathnack's api,

could it be possible to, maybe, add a dark sectors information tab?

Filter conflicts/deploying/armistice, with timers if possible

Could also have a battle pays alert - set your minimum and have a notification when an alliance offers more than that.

 

Another one, relative to credits filters.

Could we have the possibility to set a custom reward?

Ecplanation: i dont care about running an alert for 10k, or an invasion for 35k. But i would like to be alerted if an exclusive alert comes by and offer 150k credits reward (as the suspicious shipments event alerts offered)

 

That's all for today!

I really enjoy jwarframe, it works perfectly.

 

Only issue i could have to report comes from a teammate with low end computer. It eats LOTS of memory. mine usually 200 to 250MB. Could that be somewhat optimized?

Posted

1) Last I check the API didn't have dark sectors included. It has always been my plan to add them, when/if they are added to the API.

 

2) It's already on the ToDo list. I'm think 20K+ for alerts and 50k+ for invasions no matter what filters are set...

 

3) There are very few options to lower memory usage, that is just the way Java works, sadly.
