After getting this new version, you will want to also pick up the iconTool that i created (Windows, Mac).  These will allow you to get some nice custom icons back into the application, replacing the generic ones that ship with it.

I hope you all enjoy this new version and please let me know if you have any problems/trouble with any of the FFGear apps. 

Thanks!

Now about a month and a half later, I've got a new version almost ready to submit to apple.  It's currently in beta, couple more kinks that i need to work out and some new graphics in the works.  I'm planning on submitting back to the itunes store sometime in the first or second week of Feb.

All of the fixes that were originally going to go out with v1.2 which got hammered down by SE, will be in this version. I have also added a new feature which will allow you to import your own icons for all the gear in this app.  The app will ship with some default images (free from copyright infringement) for gear, but I'm sure you will want some better and more specific graphics.

Introducing the FTP Import!

You find this screen by tapping on [Update Application Data] from the Gear Sets screen.  Then Choosing "User Generated (FTP)".

I recommend using FileZilla to transfer your files from this point. (http://filezilla-project.org/)

Just enter the "Connect To:" IP Address given to you by the FFGear app where it says "Host:" in FileZilla.

To Upload your images or data lists, just drag-and-drop the files onto the Uploads folder.  Currently the app is accepting 3 different Files to be uploaded:

Icons.zip           - archive of icons for gear items in the app.

GearInfo.plist    - xml containing info on all the gear in the app.

food.plist          - xml containing info on all food items in the app.

Aside from this, I'm also currently finalizing a Mac & Windows client that will build the three files mentioned above.  It is a modified version of the tool that I had originally used to gather all the item/food icons.  The Mac client is ready and the Windows client is very close.  I'll update here when they are both ready and available to download.

For legal reasons i cannot host any of the files containing copyrighted images from FFXI, so it will be up to you all to either gather up your own (suggest by using one of the two client apps mentioned above) or maybe some of the other folks that are using this app will do so and provide them to you all.

Either way, I'm very excited to have this FFGear app so close to being available to you all once again!

• PUP Weapon Selection caused app to crash
• App Data Update taking unneccesarily long

I've fixed these both and added some other features like BLU spells and a better way to keep the app data up-to-date.

I'm more than aware that there are probably other issues that I havent found yet, please report them here or email me at actionsreaction(AT)gmail.com and I will get them fixed and another update out asap!

Enjoy!

I also already have an update almost ready to post to the AppStore, this update will include Blu Spells (spell bonuses/trait-combos), a fix to prevent unnecessarily long app data updates along with a couple small bugs that I didnt find until after the initial appstore submission.

 ::Edit::

Oh yeah, weapon selection for PUP is broken currently... sorry... will be fixed w/the update

I'll be posting support documents here shortly

I'll have a video tutorial on how to use the FTP upload soon.

I've just finished testing this using the FileZilla ftp client.  I plan on continuing testing with different FTP clients, but plan on pushing this out to the app store as soon as I can.  If you have a preferred FTP client please let me know here and I'll test it w/PullLists.

Currently the FTP method will only work for .cbz(or .zip) files, but I'll also have a simple utility available for converting .cbr(or .rar) files to .cbz's. 

Using this FTP method, all unarchiving and image resizing happens on the phone itself.  After the upload completes, .cbz's are unarchived and the comic is added to your readable comics in the app.  When displaying each page, the app checks the image size and resizes to the maximum supported size if neccessary. 

keep tuned in, more info to come...

Windows x86 Client

• Status windows to indicate import/export processing.
• Interface tweaks to make more obvious when new Comics are added to the application.
• The basic reader has been implemented and is available now to allow you to read your comics on the larger screen of your PC

Now for the 64bit version... i'm still working hard to get a Bonjour for windows solution to work, but it is not there yet.  As soon as its available I will get it to you all. 

::EDIT::

I've also decided to make the original Windows transfer utility available again for those of you having problems with the new Windows Pull Lists Library app. You can find the original Pull Lists Utility here

I've been testing the 32-bit version of this, but don't have a 64-bit machine to test the x64 version with... so I need your feedback on bugs and issues.

There currently are some small bugs in the client which I am working on, but I wanted to get these versions out there.  Let me know what you think and check back for updates!

 ** Edit i need to find or build a 64-bit version of the zeroconfigservices.dll ... it appears this is causing crashes for 64bit windows...

Windows 64-bit - download

Windows 32-bit - download

BUT! right now I am setting up a tiger install and will get to the bottom of this issue this weekend.  With any luck you Tiger folks will have a working build before the weekend is out!  Sorry for the delay in this and thank you for your patience.
