Grim Raynbow [v0.0.1]
DELETE ALL OLD RAINBOW FILES
We are trying something different, I always avoided it when the old system was running and changing it in the middle would confuse everybody not to mention more than half would skip reading about it. There is also the fact the only way to remove colors from tooltips from file downloads was to delete the tags_ui.txt and if all colored tags are in one file that wouldn’t be possible, but the new tool creates the files so anybody can toggle off the tags they don’t want. And lastly this will prevent missing tags by ~99%.
DELETE ALL FILES FROM THE OLD RAINBOW, you get only one file now, for English it is tagsgdx3_uimain.txt for all other Languages it will be aom/tagsgdx1_achievements.txt. If you’re using the Mastery Tags, you may keep the skills.txt files, but remember deleting those when the Website gets Masteries added.
For those that care about the reason about that file… . The tags in those files are loaded in a certain order, but the file has to exist in the game files or it won’t be loaded at all. Since our files will override game files and all tags inside of it, it will not load any newly added tags until our file gets updated with those tags. Hence using a file that probably won’t see an update for a while prevents missing tags.
Work In Progress
The new tools have been through a few iterations, the first got deleted due to me not seeing an email about the server infrastructure being moved and whether I want to move all data over to the new one. The second became too overly complicated for users so I had to scrap that and go back to a more familiar design, so the third and current one was started a little over a week ago and will continue to be developed over the next weeks as well as going beyond of a coloring tool over the upcoming months.
I also believe that growing the tool with feedback will fix issues before they become a part of it. If a feature is missing, don’t panic I’ll push each one when it is usable. The UI will change over time, I cannot stress enough that this is not supposed to look like that.
This post as well as the top banner area on the Website will be updated frequently to reflect that progress.
