Where are the .NDF files located? #12

Closed shellwhale closed 10 months ago

shellwhale commented 10 months ago

I can't find the files in the game folder, where are they located?

Dreamfarer commented 10 months ago

Hey @shellwhale! 👋🏽 The game files are located at ...\steamapps\common\WARNO\Mods\ModData\base.zip.

Dreamfarer commented 10 months ago

I have to say, sadly, I've neglected this repository a bit. I hope I can get back to it one day and finish the .ndf parser 😆.

You can create your own NDFs by runinng the CreateNewMod.bat which is located in [your steam lib dir]\steamapps\common\WARNO\Mods

Wow! Didn't know this! Thank you @m1rza-s! ❤️

My parser already works, could gotta smack my objects into JSON if you need?

Dreamfarer commented 10 months ago

Oh, wow, that's impressive @m1rza-s! 🚀 Are there any plans to make the parser or the parsed data available to the public? 👀 I was initially thinking of creating a web API for vehicle data queries, like for comparisons. But now, I'm unsure about my next steps, especially since I've been out of touch with the WARNO community for over a year. I'm not even sure if it's worth the effort, haha.

Thank you so much for the offer! I need to decide how to move forward with this project. I might reach out to you once I've made up my mind.

TBH you're not missing much. Eugen seems to be determined to drive WARNO into the ground.

Also, have a look at https://www.warno-armory.com/

@m1rza-s where can we find your parser?

Nowhere. Its not open source.

Based on your feedback, I'm thinking of converting this repository into a pure wiki. Perhaps in the future, when I have more time, I'll consider creating an NDF parser again. However, as you've pointed out, there are already many tools available. It seems that this repository is primarily used for looking up variable definitions or game mechanic descriptions.

looking up variable definitions or game mechanic descriptions.

That's exactly how I used it.
