v0.2.1 beta "OH MY GOD! they take over the fridge?!" added: ork if dat.

If something go wrong in this test, PTCalc write a line in error.log with the name of the missing file and some other stuff. This fix some strange bugs. - Replaced the rather stupid error handling "on input" with a better on e. If the user insert stuff in the edit fields, PTCalc check the Input a nd replace it with a simple 0 (zero) if the Text->Number conversion thro w a Exception. v0.2.0 just displayed the error Message in the 2nd StatusB ar Panel (should ALWAYS display "OK") and "stop working" till the error is fix ed. I think (hope) this was the main problem a lot of user seem to had. changed: - i changed most of the File-Load code to filter wrong entrys in the current save files. it work pretty much like the "on input" check. wrong? -> write a 0 (double check your loaded stats if you had proble ms). - "File-Load" cache the whole save-file data in the memory now, result in a single HD read request ( >100 in older versions). - Changed Ata-Shield Strike Dmg. ( >Level 4). - Changed Ata-Bigger Spear Dmg. ( >Level 4). - Changed Ata-Storm Javelin MP ( >Level 4). - Ata - Farina. Skill Bonus was complete wrong. - Changed Knight-Holy Valor Duration (all levels). - Changed Knight-Piercing MP ( >Level 4). - Changed Knight-Drastic Spirit Duration (all Levels). Some1 can verify current MP >Level 7 in ePT? - Mechanician-Compulsion Duration (all levels). bugfix: - Shield aging give only 0.2 abs/level not 0.5 thx to DeathRow3 - Devine/Celesto Force give +60/80 AND +10% now. thx to Fanatic - Armor "none/manual input" showed non-initialized var's. ("2.46643e+07 " etc) known Problem: Skills based on other skills raise a EConvertError if the "precu rsor-SKill" -------------- is set first to >0 in the Skill-Panel. For example: - [Atalanta] Set HoV > Level 0 and have ToV at Level 0. - [Archer] Set GF > Level 0 and have Falcon at Level 0. and a few others I think (Mech is a good competitor with all his skills) workaround: just set them in the right order and everyting is fine. ----------known Problem: Sometimes, in the "cast on this char"-Panel with HoV and ToV (?) there is ------------- a strange bug. Enable one at level 0 and the dmg and/or DoT field s change, but don't change again if you disable it. At level 0 there should - file-check on start. PTCalc look for all needed files and refuse to w something is missing. this check include "\images\*.*" and the patch.

be no change at all. I saw this just 2 or 3 times and I don't know (yet) how to trigge r this bug. Maybe someone can enlighten me here, could save hours in the debugger. v0.2.0 beta added: 5 A = 76 B = (90/5) = 18 Result = A + ((100 - A) * (B / 100)) -> 76 + ((100 - 76) * (18 / 100) ) = 80,32 r now. PTCalc ask now to save the current char before quit. added more tool tips, changed a lot of them PTCalc display the current (last loaded/saved) Filename in the Toolba - Fighter-Cyclone Strike Calculation - Prs-Extinction Calculation. IMO the % is calculated like that: Level 5 with Level 90 Prs for example. Success Rate = 76 % + level /

"Cast on this Char" panel. Holy Mind is currently disabled because i have some problems with the calculation here. It's not "how to", more like "how to get a right result with th e way PTCalc calculate all the other crap". ToV and HoV bonus is based on the Caster-Level (x+Lvl/9 bonus). If yo u enable it PTCalc use a Level 90 Ata for the Calculation. HoV is disabled for Archer & Pike at the moment because i have to cha nge the code for the Evasion Calculation on this 2 classes to get a right result. changed: nt bonus ong and bonus - Mechanician-Metal Golem: changed the Golem HP from x+(2*pHP) to x+(2* pStr) - Ata-Extreme Rage: Changed from single hit to a 3 Hit Skill. - Knight-Sword Blast: the calculation missed the 30% Normal/Mutant type bonus bonus Knight-Holy Valor: Changed the Range from 300 to 200. Knight-Piercing: the calculation missed the 30% Mutant type bonus Mage - Dancing Sword: Skill Panel missed the Atk-Delay. Priest - Devine Lightning: the calculation missed the 50% Undead type Archer-Elemental Shot: Changed the whole Calculation Pikeman-Ground Pike: Changed Freeze time for all levels +1 sec Pikeman-Ground Pike: the calculation missed the Lvl/5 bonus. Pikeman-Jumping Crash: the calculation missed the 30% demon bonus Pikeman-Expansion: the calculation missed the 30% Mutant bonus Pikeman-Chain Lance: decreased needed mana for all levels. Mechanician-Mech Bomb: changed 30% Mech type bonus to 50% normal/muta Mechanician-Spark: the calculation missed the 50% Mech type bonus Mechanician-Spark Shield: the whole Reflection-Dmg Calculation was wr

missed the 50% Mechanic Type Bonus - Mechanician-Magnetic Sphere: the calculation missed the 30% Mech type

the text in all grids is now centered Changed the format for % values from "0.39" to "39 %" in the grids. you can enter the stats of your Character with the keyboard now. rewrote the Readme for the new/changed stuff in v0.2

bugfix: - right-cklick Gem/Age menu for Orbs missed the whole gemming part. - removed some usesless code fragments here and there, make calculation a bit faster and the file a bit smaller. - v0.1.2 missed the NPC-Buy Col in the Sheltom Info Window. - Prs-Extination "Select Level"-Up/down was linked with the Prs-Vigor B all "Select Level"-Up/down. - fixed a "bug" in the file-load code. loading a file is faster now. (dun really matter on CPU's > 1 Ghz) - v0.1.2 had a bug in the file-load code. Orb MP-Regen never loaded fro m file. - if you did a Reset, item pictures in the Item Panel and the Skill-typ e Pictures in the Skill-Panel don't clear/reset. - Prs Holy Mind Mana-Usage Calculation was wrong. - Fighter Avenging Crash was possible with all weapon types. - Knight Grand Cross AR Calculation was wrong. v0.1.2 beta ----------added: Armlets Info Gauntlet Info Boots Info Weapon Info Ring Info Amulet Info Sheltom Info Speed Calculation Gemming Formulas for Weapons in the Right-Click Insert-Weapon menu. "can use" & "can't use" Icons in the Weapon Right-Click menu. ForceOrb Calculations (not prs/mgs) "woody's fun Aging". sometimes i get bored and this is the result ;)

changed: - changed the "Select Class" fields in the Armor/Shield info from DropDown to a Radio-Group. Look & work better IMO. - PTCalc pre-select now your current char-class in the item-info window s. If you wanne see NS stats of something, use the new "Reset" button th ere. - changed Prs MP & dmg formula. The new MP one is wrong (or should be). it just match with my sample-Screen-Shot-Prs. Lets see how it work on other Prs. The Dmg formula give "almost right" results for my SS-Prs. - removed mana-usage calculation from Prs-Holy Reflection, its a timed skill. - changed the "set items" part. its a bit more PTPlanner-like (that was not the goal...) for 2 Reasons. 1. it was needed to split the def/abs fields in Base/spec to use agin g/gemming. 2. i need the room in the main window later. - Re-wrote the whole BMP-Patcher code. The Ram-usage was just a fking j

oke. v0.1 created a huge list of records with all files to patch in a 2nd step. i don't really know why it need THAT MUCH ram... maybe a memory leak somewhere. well, Alpha version and it was my first contact with the win32 API ;) v0.2 is a bit faster (~8%) and need like 1 MB Ram (not 170 lol). - Save file format (duh...!) you can use v0.1 save files - no problem. But to use the new Item-panel with all the new fields you have to re-enter your defense Items or you get wrong results after aging. bugfix: - fixed a few GUI things here and there. - v0.1 missed the NPC-Buy Col in the Orb-Info-Window-Grid & Shield-Info -Window-Grid. - fixed rounding errors in the Item-Info Class-Reg Calculation. it shou ld give the true min-max reg now. - if you switched from class A to Class B with a enabled timed skill in the Skillpanel (for class A) and then switched back to class A, the skill -type icon had a wrong Skill-Type picture (the one for Class B). I know, sound c omplicated. Anyway, this is fixed now. v0.1.1 beta ----------internal test version for most of the new 0.1.2 things.

They update now only if the character class change. - If you loaded a Character from a save file NOT stored in the PTcalc.e xe folder, PTcalc was not able to load the skillpanel images. Save-File location don't matter now. - fixed a bug in the free sp & ep calculation. SOMETIMES you got a wron g result.
