I have absolutely no idea how to fix this, but did it stopped working when the Atlantis update kicked in?

[cooltapes]

It was working after the Atlantis update, in fact it would only work on characters I made after it. Older characters would give that same error. But now any character I try to select gives that error, even ones that previously worked.

Looks like the Atlantis update broke it, I hope we get an update soon.

Hi Koder, firstly, thanks for making a superb tool. It's super handy having a easy way to plan and test different configurations.

I have run into a slight problem. I thought I should share it if it helps improve your tool.

I tried emailing koderkrazy, but didn't get an answer. Also he hasn't appeared on here for quite a while. I'm worried that he is gone. I just wish this tool was open source so that others can maintain it.

Hey guyz!!
Sorry for late response. 

I've fixed the exceptions.

System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Non-negative number required.

...

...

Atlantis introduced second relic bonus and var2(don't know what it is) to the player save files.
So the file format changed. I've updated the parsing code.

Error loading resources System.IO.InvalidDataException: TEX magic is invalid.

Some how latest updates bugged the Eitr charm icon/image. I can't see eitr charm in version 2.7 properly it's broken.
I've silenced the exception in the blacksmith tool. Till they fix the icon it'll show as orange square with black question mark in it.


Get the TQBlacksmith v1.4 from main post.
Make sure you backup the save files before trying the latest tool version 1.4.
I don't have Atlantis DLC but I've tested it on 'TitanQuest v2.7' which is the latest.
I think it'll work on Atlantis DLC as well. If Atlantis has introduced new weapons and other items, then they won't show in the tool. 

Let me know if any issues.

[Death_by_Diarrhea]

You rock.    No worries about the late reply.

Hello,

I was trying to make this work with the steam version of TQAE with Ragnarok and Atlantis.  It sees the player directory but not the TQAE install dir when I try to set it to D:\Steam\steamapps\common\Titan Quest Anniversary Edition . The save button stays grayed out.  I cancel out then get this error:
2019/07/27 06:01:45.23 :Error loading resources System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load Text DB.
   at TQ_weaponsmith.Database.LoadTextDB()
   at TQ_weaponsmith.Database.LoadDBFile()
   at TQ_weaponsmith.LoadDataForm.loadResources()

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The button enables only when the files exist. It checks that, when the file selection dialog closes with selection. I think if you copy paste path then the check doesn't happen.
Try to select the path using path selection button. Otherwise try to put it directly in 'Configurations.txt' file.

Hi, can you upgrade the tool so we can add both rčix and suffix for ring and amulet, because currently version can only add prefix for ring and amulet.
