Acces violation error

Koffie — Mon, 25 Aug 2008 17:12:41 GMT

Edit: Nevermind,I was stupid enough to have a game running at the same time which caused this error.

Hi,

I just downloaded GWF but when I try to install it I get the following error:

I'm running on Windows XP Pro SP3 with .net framework 3.5.
Is there any way to solve this problem?

Problem with the Download application

i play gws and have a life — Sun, 16 Dec 2007 18:10:01 GMT

I used this tool sinse... forever! (Found it on Guildwarsguru AD) I got a new... not better computer. I Downloaded the tool from the internet, no problem! When I started the download process, after 1-10 seconds. It closes out... exits the install all by itself with no warning of any kind. I love this tool... Whats the problem?

Skill Information bundled?

Redfren — Sat, 08 Dec 2007 00:23:25 GMT

Hi, I think your software is amazing. It’s become a standard part of our guild and is used continuously. There was a question that I had though.

When posting a build on the forums it needs to be an img file, to do this I’ve taken screen shots cropped out the section needed then posted.

The skill information is almost essential when trying to explain your build to another person. But to get the skill information I needed to crop out each skill then paste them onto a single page and post it like this.

Is there anyway to group together your skill information based on the skills you have selected in your bar?

What is this?

Gota — Fri, 30 Nov 2007 23:15:37 GMT

Hi i just signed up and i was wondering is this a type of thing that lets me create a character and play it in the game? I wa wonering cus i have the nightfalls collectors version and i played the demo of factions and i want to make an assassin and play it on nightfall if this does that.

Well i used it and made my assassin but it wont show up in the character selection screen why? thanx for the replies

How to : Hide PvE-only skills ?

Tul — Thu, 29 Nov 2007 10:29:01 GMT

Hi !

Is it possible to hide all the PvE-only skills, just like skills linked to a particular attribute can be hidden ? It gets pretty annoying to have to scroll down over those PvE skills to find a skill for a PvP build.

If not, what would be an astute / practical way of doing it, short from manually deleting all the PvE-only skills ?

Thanks for the help, and above all thanks for Gwfreaks.

how to use

Sindaran — Tue, 27 Nov 2007 16:53:44 GMT

I installed the tool,no problems.Get character.xml missing on startup.i'm assuming that is because I have no character loaded yet.But that is the problem.wordpad can't open the manual,just repeats error message.I have no idea what I'm supposed to do with the resources zip i also downloaded,or even if I have to do anything with it.Also,no idea how to load a profile.I went to the FAQ,were only 5 subjects there,nothing that helped.
Any info would be appreciated.Btw,the message I get is that it can't open the graphics conversion for Wordpad.

Error when posting a template code into box

sdcmgs — Sun, 30 Sep 2007 10:26:08 GMT

Not sure if it is me or if it is normal, but I was reading a forum and someone had posted a build they used to complete something. I wasn't in game so I loaded GWFreaks to paste the build so I could look at their build. When I pasted the build into the box it turned red and nothing would load. Not sure why or if this is normal. I do have the latest version of the program. Any help would be great. Thanks.

Unofficial Skill Update, Included PvP skills for GW:EN

Ricky — Fri, 17 Aug 2007 10:19:43 GMT

Just thought this might be easier for some people to read instead of going into certain post to download the .xml files for updating the skills. By the way, this skill update does not include the PvE skill Updates. If im stepping on anyone's toes for posting these updates, please tell me. Thanks GWFreaks for the awesome program. These files contain the PvP skills for GW:EN. Also, The skill ID's where i recieved the information is wrong and needs to be updated. Ok everything looks good. Shouldn't be anymore French Descriptions in there. XD

Any idea when next update will be?

Rohawn — Fri, 14 Sep 2007 19:09:32 GMT

Any idea when next update will be? Been 5 mo since last and Id love to see the new EN skills in my builds. Great tool I love it thanks for taking the time to create it.

Jagged Bones error

BigFatIdiot — Thu, 05 Jul 2007 21:17:04 GMT

Jagged Bones says that it spawns a Level 0 Jagged Horror when target minion expires. Doesn't seem to matter if Death Magic is at 0 or at 16. Always says Level 0 Jagged Horror.

Also: lack of armor Insignias in the equipment tab is rather annoying.

Weopons and Equipment problem! urgent!

thecoolguy293 — Tue, 26 Jun 2007 18:14:01 GMT

I have just learned how to use this thing, but when I send templates to GW, all that shows up is the skills. None of the armor I added to the template, nor the weapons, will show up. It is like the program doesn't even send the armor and weapons at all, just the skills. Is it supposed to do this or something? I need reasons! Please?

Template code Generation

dwabraxus — Fri, 11 May 2007 14:39:00 GMT

Hello. I am a programmer writing a PHP program for my Guild to use to track players and teams. I have been working on cracking the template code to make it easier to import the players data. I think I am making progress.

I am fairly sure that each attribute /skill is 2 characters and the first 2 chars are the class/profession of the char.

I have decoded a few of the skill codes but It would be much easier if someone could help me crack the code or help me with the algorithm..

Thanks in advance.

Is there a possible way to post to Guild Site

Succubisa Sul — Thu, 02 Nov 2006 00:00:38 GMT

I do not know if this is possible or not, but I LOVE the layout of this program, however, I would like to be able to place this on my guilds website that I host and maintain without having to have them download and send me the updated uploads constantly. What I'm looking to do is have them be able to update their info using this program, but that it automatically shows on my site (in other words, is there a coding that you allow to give out to place inside my current website coding) so that the program is already open and ready to use without downloading to my members personal computers?

I will be placing passwords on each persons site so that only they (and myself, as site admin) can make actual changes) but will allow the rest of the members to view the updates. Does that make sense?

Thanks and beautiful job on this program, I had thought about doing the same thing for my site almost similar to your setup before I happened to run across this as an already operational and beautifully written program.

Sincerely,
KB aka Succubisa Sul

What its for

drag0nl0rd — Sun, 25 Mar 2007 18:41:57 GMT

Can someone tell me what the heck this program is for besides building some retarded "Fantasy GW" character I can't even use in the game. Am I really that stupid and don't understand how to use this program for something other than my fantasies? An explanation on how to use this program would be nice.

Hi,

Every time I start the program (v. 3.0.2) I get the "First time setup" window. I put in my information and click the "Ok" button and nothing happens. Then when I close that window (via the X) the main program starts up. In the main program when I create a charactor and click on "Save" it doesn't save it. Then when I close the main window (via the X) I get the following error:

Recieved Physical Damage Problem

Exodus — Tue, 10 Apr 2007 00:17:35 GMT

I just downloaded the tool, and started creating my warrior on it when I came to a roadblock. You cannot create a shield with the bonus "Received Physical Damage -5...). The tool limits it to simply "Recieved Damage..." and the max the Abs. goes down to is -3. Also, it limits the % chance to 10%.

Warrior Wanted

Sabardeyn — Sat, 31 Mar 2007 22:38:38 GMT

Hello Eveyone,

I am rather desparately in need of assistance. Hopefully someone here will be willing to provide me with the extensive help that I need.

For reasons I cannot explain at the moment, I need a complete write-up of a Warrior/Monk around 18th level. I need to know the equipment worn / used (stats for armor and weapons are necessary), the farthest zone reached by 18th level (assuming not powerleveled, running ok). Attribute levels, all skills known and the skills in the skill bar. Strangely, I am not looking for an effective character. I am looking for a wimpy, inefficient, non-build character.

Please note that I do not want anyones' account information or access to anyones' account. While I recognize that I am looking for everything on an entire character, the need is very specific and completely legit. I need this information for some writing I intend to perform. Over-simplified, my intent is to take this inefficient character and convert them into an effective, efficient character. However I found that never having played a Warrior I am having major problems. Attempts to make assumptions about warriors in the writing so far have failed because re-reading the material makes my lack of knowledge very obvious.

I'm not looking for anything specifically in this warrior. In other words he could be specializing in swords, axes or hammers. Stances or no stances, etc. I guess the only thing is just that he be a bit more warrior than a fighting monk. After that anything goes.

If anyone can help me I would appreciate it immensely.

Please leave me a private message via this board. I will check back in a couple of days and respond. Most of this work will be done either be private message or through email. Eventually this information will become public knowledge although "the name will be changed to protect the innocent."
