Hey everyone /

The next version of the good old damage calculator ( http://killingifrit.com/page.php?al=dcalc ) is ready for beta testing. As usual it is a Java executable file, you shouldn't have to worry about nasties in it.

For the paranoids out there (and paranoia is good), you can scan the zipped file online at http://www.virustotal.com/ or wherever you like.

http://www.quickfileupload.com/912FFXIDC3.zip





Make sure you extract the contents of the zip file before running the .JAR file.


New stuffs:

*The application now sits on top of its own embedded data base, which means that all the stuff you enter into it can be stored and easily retrieved later.
*Hand to Hand damage calculations have been included (version 2.x H2H calculations are the same as weapon ones, which is wrong)
*New optional details mode, will show you every stage of the calculations and the intermediate values.
*You can now specify additional stats like Store TP, Subtle Blow, damage type modifier, etc.



Stuff to do:

*Support for black magic, blue magic, hit rate, damage per minute, etc. (taking suggestions)
*Update the 2 handed formulas (will do as soon as I get solid information on what and how was changed)
*Whatever needs fixing after u guys test it.




Feedback (Can I have it?)

Excellent work!

If I get it, the calculation is made with pre August 27th patch data. If so, I can confirm that WS damage calculation for SAM WS is correct. Unfortunately I don't know what exactly changed post patch.

[Ilean]

Well, as far as I know, I have the right multipliers for updated WS already (Kasha, Gekko, Penta Thrust, etc). So I think all I really need is to update the pDIF stuff.

I think critical high cap changed, and maybe the cRatio level penalty too.

If anyone who knows Japanese can go dig around for this info in studio gobli http://www32.atwiki.jp/studiogobli/ it would help a lot.

I didn't find anything new but maybe I missed a detail ^^

[Ilean]

Nothing to report? No huge bugs? No glitches?

I'm on 1024x768 and I have to set my resolution higher to see the whole window and it doesn't seem to save the character you create/modify.

[Ilean]

You mean even after clicking on save, then going back to the name field, typing the saved name in and pressing enter, it still won't load?

I just downloaded it to a random PC and it's working ok, if it really isn't working and you can help, please upload the DB folder so i can check whats going on with your database and track the cause.




About the large size... Yeah it's deliberate, i know it sucks for people with old computers but there was really no way i could keep everything accessible and fit it in a 10x7 resolution screen. I wanted to avoid using tabs as much as possible.

Excellent work.
Very nice calculator.

I did alot of test with pDif pre and post patch and these are my conclusions:

Killed 100+ mobs "too weak" with a capped cRatio with:

Weapon DMG: 93
STR: 78+21
Att: capped
fSTR: 18
cRatio: 2

I did about 300+ swings obtaining:

Max Dmg: 287 => pDif = 2,6
Min Dmg: 181 => pDif = 1,6

So I think the new pDif cap for non critial hit is 2,6.

So:

Before any upgrade to 2h weapons, pdif cap for non crtial hit was 2,4.
After the update the pDif cap was 3,0.
Today after the nerf pdif cap is 2,6.


About the pDif caf for critical hit instead I think cap is now 3,2.

More test are needed.
These are just my conclusion.
