2DA Editor Alpha Release

[VarsityPuppet 1,085]

I have created a new 2DA editor that should be a little more user friendly than the standard Kotor Tool one.

Current Features:

• It's got copying and pasting
• It's got filtering (yes, please try it)
• Some other third thing

Features to come:

• Error logs (this is helpful for me)
• Row templates
• Multiple tabs

Please download, use a it a bit and report bugs, suggest features. All that fun stuff

Could you tell me more about how it's broken? Is the link bad? Is the download itself bad?

@eNoodles

Can you give the link another try? Should be fixed! 👍

All good now

So, after selecting a .2da to open, I get this and nothing happens anymore (at least not after 10mins):


Running on Win10 64bit.

Huh, the original release VP gave me a few months ago included a DLL file, but I don't see it in the alpha release on the site. You forget that, guy?

[VarsityPuppet 1,085]

Seems like it worked without it. Though I guess if Bead can’t open, something is probably up

[eNoodles 31]

I can confirm I have the same issue as bead. Didn't want to make the same exact post, but yeah.

[VarsityPuppet 1,085]

@eNoodles @bead-v Should be updated

Looking great VP! I love the filter/search.

However, I got an exception when I wanted to search for **** (it's in French, sorry):

Also when you copy and paste a row, **** pastes as an empty string.

Another remark is that when you make a new row, its index is -1 until you move to another row. As long as it has -1 it also appears in the filtered result even if it doesn't contain the searched string. Is this just a quirk because it would take a lot of code to fix it or does it have a purpose?

There's also a grayed out Add Template option when I right click on a row, what's that about?

Anyway, it's fast, functional and looks great!  Kudos VP!

Hah! I have been using it for the past 14/15 days odd and just thought it was part of kotor tool, downloaded a lot of tools though, but it's a really useful tool, definitely a staple I have had no issues with so far, I have already used it for editing the "ambientmusic.2da & planetary.2da" files for my mod.

Note : Now I think about it if you add a new entry when a current entry is not selected it pops an error or has done a few times for me ( I have not since repeated the test as this is from memory )
