View Full Version : I had trouble finding my way around, so I built a "GPS" app

It's called P99GPS and it parses the log file and displays your location/heading on the zone map.

It's actually two parts, the "client" (reads your log file) and the "viewer" a web app that shows the map and your position. You can have the "viewer" open on another computer / phone / tablet / etc while you play by opening that url on another device.

You can get it at p99gps.com (http://p99gps.com).

Let me know what you think, would love to hear suggestions/issues!

Extra Notes:
* If you want to see the client code to make sure nothing funny is going on take a look in resources/app/index.coffee (uses atom-shell (https://github.com/atom/atom-shell) so all the client code is readable)

* This app doesn't alter the EQ Client / sniff packets or do anything disallowed -- it only parses your log file and uses the info from "/loc" lines.

Throws an error that states

"The procedure entry point Register TouchWindo2 could not be locating in the dynamic link library USER32.dll"

I have backed everything up on my windows install. Seeing if it is something legit or garbage. If it borks something I just trash this version of windows and go back to my clean one. so far it isn't doing anything, trying to see if it does something- good or bad.

If it is something good then it is helpful to all, if it's something bad then it's no worse than I expected

This is pretty neat, I like how clean looking it is too. Thank you very much, this is pretty useful.

*EDIT*
Same guy has posted this to the subreddit a couple days ago.

Works for me. These kinda programs aren't really needed that much though.
