Utility: Dom3 Item Forging Reference Project - Updated Feb 18th

[cleveland]

I've put together a way to quickly determine which items a mage can forge based on his magic paths.

--> Online version HERE! <--
--> Included in Snoddasmannen's searchable database HERE! <-- ***

Or...
Excel version here!
Open Office version here!
CSV version here!
PDF version here!
...but be sure to re-download occasionally to stay current!

***Snoddasmannen has graciously uploaded the Vanilla Forging Reference to his online searchable database!

--------------
Currently available Forging References:
Vanilla
CBM 1.3
CBM 1.4

I'd very much like this to become a "repository" of mod-specific forging references. If you're a modder and would like to create your own, I'll be happy to give you editing privileges. You'll need a (free) gmail account. Just PM me your gmail address.

--------------
The "Single Path" pages look like this:

Under each of the 8 magic paths, all the "single path" items are listed, grouped by the magic-level needed to forge them, and color-coded to indicate the needed Construction level (blue = Const0...red = Const8). Items that boost magic paths are italicized.

The "Dual Path" pages look like this:

It's a consolidated matrix that groups all similar "dual path" items together, includes the path requirements, and follows the same color convention as before.

It answers the following questions very easily:
1) What items can I forge at Construction level X?
2) What can *insert name of newly encountered mage* forge?
3) If I empower/boost *insert name of mage*, what new items will be available?

All the data was mined from the Dom3 DB, produced by Edi.

Enjoy.

I understand the forum is having trouble with attachments.

I've uploaded the zip to 2shared [edit: deleted]
Please let me know if it's still coming back corrupt.

[OoohSnap]

Thanks cleveland, its very useful and handy

[Reay]

I am already using this frequently, cheers Cleveland

[archaeolept]

very nice work cleveland - not sure why the first chart is on it's side? - but that's a minor thing

[cleveland]

I've uploaded a new version 2008.01.28, which has some very minor revisions based on feedback. It's not really necessary to "upgrade"...

2008.01.28 changelog
---"Armor of Twisting Thorns" properly italicized
---Credit for Dom3 DB taken from Ed, given to Edi
---Dual-Path FR now opens in proper orientation

I also removed the link to the 2shared hosted file; since the forum link is working properly, 2shared is unnecessary.

Thanks for all the comments. The real credit belongs to Edi for making the Dom3 DB, and to the Devs for delaying the new patch so long that I was bored enough to make this thing

Seriously though, this is a great game and I'm glad I can contribute to this great community.
