Darth333 Posted December 15, 2004 Posted December 15, 2004 Thanks for the hard work tk102 . This new feature is going to be very useful. I used FindRefs countless times and now I'm going to loose the count even more
Darkkender Posted December 15, 2004 Posted December 15, 2004 So should we expect this update feature being added to the findrefs gui edition as well sometime soon?

tk102 Posted December 15, 2004 Author Posted December 15, 2004 FindRefs GUI v2.1 released. - Added ability to search TLK file references I added a separate scrolling TextBox to the right of the Listbox to contain the references found. In the case of Dialog and Descriptions, this was necessary to preserve the readability of the results. I'd recommend uninstalling the old version of FindRefs GUI if you have one. Probably will work either way, but it's safer. Yay! 1000 posts! 950 of them on this forum!
tk102 Posted March 12, 2005 Author Posted March 12, 2005 The command line version of this utility has been updated to v3.0. Two new option switches have been added. -2 This switch will tell Findrefs to search for TSL files instead of KotOR files. -f This switch tells findrefs that what follows is a file pattern that will be searched from instead of searching the entire gambit of game files. This can be useful if you know for example that you want search a particular .erf, .rim, or .bif file. Because this switch accepts a value, it should separated from the other switches like so: findrefs -AqP2 killblaster -f *.bif The GUI version has not been updated yet to support TSL. I expect to have it updated within the week.

Especially since this is a handy tool.
tk102 Posted March 12, 2005 Author Posted March 12, 2005 Or I should've started an hour earlier. Thanks DK.
Darth333 Posted March 12, 2005 Posted March 12, 2005 Thanks tk! I think this is the tool I use most often!
tk102 Posted March 12, 2005 Author Posted March 12, 2005 v3.1 released (command line). Added TemplateResRef as another searchable field for template files (*.ut*) This should prove helpful to avoid the problems outlined by Darth333 in this thread. An example of how FindRefs can be used to detect the potential for overriding other templates by accident can be seen here.

tk102 Posted September 6, 2006 Author Posted September 6, 2006 v4.3 released Added the ability to search and extract .2da files If the search term is numeric and TLK references are enabled, FindRefs will now assume the search term is an index into dialog.tlk and will search files accordingly. (For Dashus) I've included the VB6 source code for the .exe and the Perl source code for the .dll for those interested. I've discontinued support for the command line utility at this point and have removed its link from swk.com.
