Title: Character Build Generator
Post by: Jagged on Jul 30, 2023, 09:25 AM
I've been playing with a programme to parse Rebirth character data from your account page (https://www.cityofheroesrebirth.com/public/manage) and then spit out your characters build info as a bunch of html. There is still a lot to do, mostly missing icons and name translation. But if you are interested here is the data from my characters:
https://hero-id.co.uk/characters/

There is a Git Repo (https://github.com/Jaggeroth/cox-character-build) but its not really ready to share yet. You would have to run the HtmlIndex class for it to build the HTML.

This is actually getting closer to becoming usuable  ;)

I have updated it so that it dispays an icon for DOs & SOs. I couldn't be bothered to download icons for all those enhancements so it is just using the generic traing enhancement and then dropping the appropriate dual origin or single origin themed ring on top.

I have added Incarnate information. Example here: https://hero-id.co.uk/characters/power_jenny.html

Must admit I am having a bit of trouble with Warshades. Their free powers appear in their build data with data inconsistent to the rest of their powers :(

This is pretty sharp-looking so far, thanks for sharing.

This is ready for other people to try out now.

You can either build it yourself from this GitHub repo: https://github.com/Jaggeroth/cox-character-build

Or if you trust me down load the compiled JAR file from here: https://hero-id.co.uk/rebirth/character-build-tool.zip
You will need java installed of version 11.0.3 or higher.
Unzip to a directory
Fill in the config file with your account details
Then run the command java -jar cox-character-build-0.0.1-jar-with-dependencies.jar

The programme will probably report missing stuff, let me know and I will add it.

This should now work relatively nicely on a mobile phone, plus I have added some sorting options at the bottom.

Unfortunately the player character information is unavailable for the foreseeable future.
So people won't be able to use this to generate their own player data sheets.

Excited to say the account pages are back!

So this is usable again  :)
