The Hoarder --- Desktop Utility

[Igognito]

Would be so nice if the devs could give us some way to output character inventories so we could easily import them into nice application such as these.


Could we please have a " /inventory [FILENAME]" command ? A "/bank [personal|shared] [FILENAME]" command would be nice as well.

Please make this happen

cheers

Check the manual of The Hoarder!
I have devised a way to import items from within the game!

Step 0)
Link your items to a chat room // Or put them in the shared bank // TR Cache will work no need to take anything out
Step 1)
Take a Screen Shot of the Chat//shared bank or TR Cache
Step 2)
Crop the image to have only the text part you want to import
Step 3)
Use an external free online OCR
Step 4)
paste the text (1 item == 1 line) to the Search & Import window of The Hoarder (the binocular function)
Step 5)
Select the results you got and re iterate!

I know, it is a bit of a pain the first 2-3 times but it is better than typing for 5+ character and I'm pretty sure there are people with 30 characters out there.

Cheerios

ps: Working on known bugs and UI improvements ;-)

Nice, better than manually selecting items, but yeah with some 20+ fully stacked toons + banks, that's a lot clicking + OCRs + doesn't capture stuff like cannith extra slots, mythic, reaper bonuses, etc... If the devs at SSG gave us an export command line feature, it would be such a great Quality of life and should be simple to do from a dev standpoint...

Thank you so much! I need this!

SSG give this person a job please.................

Dear all,

these days I developed a simple & fast to use tool for managing the endless Hoard I gather.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1hc...p_rlRDNUWzLMfX

For a screenshot:

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1LZ...Os9G7HXVWLjecw

And a brief Manual in PDF
https://drive.google.com/file/d/19Hg...ew?usp=sharing

Please give it a try and post feedback here.
If the tool gets enough attention and demand I will devote more time to cover your requests.

The main usage for this tool is to replace any Excel like files we all might be keeping for our items :-D
A second usage is to help you choose items that their abilities do not conflict. This is under construction though...

Notable Features:
Version includes AUTO Update for the database.
Keep track your character inventory with Drag & Drop!
Import your items using text. Or images and an OCR. (Check the manual)

Next updates will be on the database.
Upcoming new feature: Progress the Equip Report further.

Cheerios and Enjoy

I cant wait to see how this works!!! Like your brilliant!!!

Sweetenuf!

Just saw this post and very excited to try it out. I am such a hoarder with a ton of mules and regular playing characters. I've tried so many diff ways to keep track - so thankful you decided to create an app!

[Sylvado]

I have like 13 bank toons on one account on one Server.
It would be great to have a way to see what toon has what items in their inventory…
That would greatly reduce the time taken logging in and out trying to find out where I left my charged gauntlets for the next TR...

Cool Utility!

I have been asking for APIs for inventory for while now.

[KatzyBaby]

Wow and wow, such beautiful and extensive and sleek app. Thanks so much!

[Therrilliar]

Love it! Awesome. Replaces my Excel spreadsheet.

One wish item:

When you list a set (e.g. Way of the Sun), I would love to have it append that with (1 of X) so that I know how many items short I might be.

This encapsulates what I am hoping for. All I wish, is for some method of exporting each characters belongings into a list. It's all I have asked for, for over a decade.

Really nice work.
Question though - how do you increase quantities of items you are hoarding? I have duplicate items located on various toons but it seems that I'm only allowed 1 of each item in the system.

[Igognito]

Dear all,

first of all I want to thank you all for the good words and motivating messages.
Meanwhile, whatever time I found I have devoted to improve the tool ;-) so wait for a new version this Sunday!

* I have located all mentioned bugs, and some non mentioned ones :-P and corrected them
* Have made several User Interface (UI) upgrades giving more Drag & Drop functionality, user customization etc...
* Improved filtering
* Implemented sorting for the Inventories
* and more...

After this weekend I will try to hold on releases to a MAX of 1 release per week.
a) It is very time consuming.
b) I have other obligations.
c) I want to start releasing more stable versions rather than development versions up until now.

Have in mind that all suggestions that are possible and relative I mark them down and implement them as time permits.
So KEEP Posting.
While I have no intention of ever selling the app, I have to point out that implementing your "wish list" might be very time consuming and will cost me from my personal time. So I will accept any form of donations!
I will at some point improve and start using the Patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/Igognito to guide the next steps of the app through polls.
Also if you really want something custom made you will be able to ask for it there!
TBH: I would prefer for donations to not be of monetary nature but DDO Points/Astrals etc...
I have not found a method for a player to donate DDO points or Astrals to another.
If you have any idea of how to do that, please post it.

Thank you for reading!

In the new version (not yet released) I have implemented Drag & Drop functionality for that.
At the existing, you can duplicate items by Adding a crafted version of it.

Select the item and press ctrl-a or press the appropriate toolbar button.

Cheers

Dear all,

I have uploaded the newest version.
I fixed several bugs and improved the UI significantly!

* You can hide columns, move them around, select multiple rows.
* Drag and Drop multiple lines
* Use ctrl+ drag and drop to duplicate items
* Drag and Drop from the grid activates after 0.1 Second in order to be distinguished from selecting multiple rows and dragging
* The app now informs you that there is a newer version but does not update it self (Check the settings for activating notifications)
* You can sort lists

I'm pretty sure there is more new things, just dont remember them all :-D

Enjoy!

ps: I had tested the app for ~1h and had found no bugs... I release it... I go use it for my inventory and there you are... I found a bug :/... Anyhow, I will check it out tomorrow and try to post a correction asap.

Any chance for a smartphone app version?

Would be awesome to be able to play with no backgrounds programs while checking who got what on the phone

Lets think of it for a moment:
- It would require a lot of time as I havent implemented anything for mobile the last 10+ years
+ Would be a good exercise to freshen up my mobile app development...
- It would be a very limited in functions app
+ It would be very light...
- It would require to synchronize with the desktop app and that would be **** to implement!

Sorry mate, but it is not of my interest to make the hoarder as a smartphone app. I personally use it with DDO in window mode. I do have 2 screens but I do believe it would be fine on 1 too.

If the app was on linux, that I usually implement, I would consider an extraction function to pdf. Then you can mail the pdf and view/search it at your phone.

I will think of a readonly export that could be viewed from a phone. But such a function will have to wait for some time.

This is an awesome tool. Thank you very much for all of your work on this!

Would it be possible to include a way to list things like consumables, tomes, cosmetics, etc., also? Maybe just a text field to list them out instead of trying to include them in a table since there are so many?

Even if not, it's great the way it is and it's helping me organize what my small army of bank toons is carrying way better than the lame Excel sheet I've been using.

Thanks again!

[Igognito]

Dear all,

a new revision is available. Improves the drag and drop functionality and corrects a bug.

Generally, today I passed the day testing it so I believe I fixed it!

I noticed that the settings system resets with every new version I make. So every time you will need to check your settings at the setting form. I will check it out at some point.

Enjoy :-)

[SeriousNonsense]

I downloaded the app and am in the process of experimenting with it. I do have an initial critique though. Is it necessary to require Net Framework 4.8?

That is what I used to develop it... But I could check what is the oldest version of .Net that compiles it.

While using this program, I Equipped and unequipped an item, possibly tried to move it from Shard bank to a character's inventory and back and now I get this error when I try to adjust anything that was equipped, regardless of the item:

=======================================
= DataGridView Default Error Dialog
=
=The following exception occurred in the DataGridView:
=SystemArguement Exception: DataGridViewComboBoxCell
=value is not valid.
=
=To replace this default dialog please handle the DataError
=event.
=
=======================================

Please excuse my horrible text version of the error message. I can't post pictures. Does this mean that I will have to delete and recreate my original file? I put a few hours into it, but if I can salvage it, that would be wonderful...

Thank you again for this wonderful program that we all have been needing!
