Yeh, I think that would be fun as well.
And I agree, the hardest part is going to be entering all that data. I'm trying to think if there is any easier way, or not.
What might happen, is that I just make a file with all the items, and one with all the abilities. As things are added, they can be added as need be. And if others want to use the data, they can. Sort of a main repository of data that everyone can use.

I think this is a great idea Rithe. I would find it useful if I could filter items by act, type and by path. Maybe that would be too much hassle for you but I think item location would be useful. eg I could select Act 1 and left hand items. or all cloak items.

I'm hoping that it will be able to select items by Act and slot. Not sure about path, though. That would require mapping the quests out, and I don't know that I want to spend the time doing that.
I'll release this under a license that will allow people to edit and expand upon the system. I don't want to presume that I'll have the time and ability in the future to add to this. I hope I do, but I know the way life goes.

Just to update people. I have a system that the different slots are changeable, although I only have a few items to work with right now. Right now, I'm working on getting a way to search for items in the item list. After that is working, I'll get it set so you can select an item by a slot, or search by name.
As I said, I don't have many items to work with yet. I might call on the rest of the community to help me with that later. Probably set something up to allow people to add items.
After that, I'll probably set up the quest side of things. Right now I want to get the items working first. Oh, and abilities. I've got a few of those as well.
It's going pretty good, overall. I'm hoping to have something to show you guys in the next few weeks.

This is really relevant to my other post and would help a lot!

I'm going on vacation in a few days, and wanted to give at least a small taste of what's to come. I'm hoping to work on this some more during vacation, although it will probably be more on the adding items and such to the database side of things.
A few notes. As stated, this is a development version, so things don't look pretty at all. I'm going for functionality right now. Click on an item you want to change, and an area will appear towards the bottom of your screen. Select the item you want.
You will notice that the items are mainly the Collector's Cards, plus a few others. And, for the majority, the Ability descriptions are not existent. This is because there is very little to the database right now.
Hopefully in the next version, there will be a way for people to help update the database. This will include: Paths, Careers, Items, Abilities, Quests and Enemies.
As I said, this is a development version. Not Beta, or even Alpha quality. That is where most developers bring people in to see. I just want to give all of you a small taste.
Enjoy!
