Hello all, today i just made a program to calculate the price of a stack of materials (Common Materials).
The price is calculated in 2 ways:
- Price made by merchant
- Price made by Arithmetic Mean: a price between Merchant Sell price and Merchant Buy price.

There is also a "button" to calculate price of:
- Conset
- Ressurection Scroll
- Power Stones

This program is really easy to use, just download it, unzip the rar file and open the folder, then just run the file .exe (Project1.exe).
No Install is required,it can be used once then can be delected. If you want reuse it just unzip the file again.

I dont think to explain how to use it, it is really intuitive, but if someone have problem just ask ;P
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATES: Version 1.5
Added:
- Essence of Celerity Price Calculator
- Grail of Might Price Calculator
- Armor of Salvation Price Calculator
The buttons to calculate them are opened on a different window clicking on More (button)-->Grail of Might, Essence of Celerity,Armor of Salvation Price Calculator. You dont need put any infos, the value is based on prices of material you have used on previous calculations.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATES: Version 2.0
Added:
- Nika Icons added on all windows
- Reorganized files in Folders and added a shortuc with icon
- Added Obsidian shards and Globs of Ectoplam price Calculator based on Arithmetic Mean

NOTE When you open the extra windows :
- Obsidian shards and Globs of Ectoplam price Calculator
- Grail of Might, Essence of Celerity,Armor of Salvation Price Calculator
the program put those windows on top, but if for any reason you click on another window system put them on the back of the main windows (Materials and Conset Calculator) BUT they are still active.
If you loose them in this way you have to move the main window(Materials and Conset Calculator) untill you found them on back, or to avoid this just open them calculate what you need then CLOSE them.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATES: Version 2.5
Added:
- First Utility of the program : Doa gems or gemset price calculator
- Fixed a problem of windows display: now when you click on main windows the other windows disaper and they can be reactivated without check behind the main windows.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SOURCE CODE:
How to check it?
The program is stored on a Rar file. When you extract it you can see this:

Inside the folder "Files" you can find 4 files:
GWCalculator.pas
Unit2.pas
Unit3.pas
Unit4.pas
Those files contain the source code of the entire program and all the operation i made.
Each file . Pas contain the code of a window:
- Main window - GW Conset and material price calculator = GWCalculator.pas
- Grail,Armor and Bu price calculator - Unit2.pas
- Ectos and Shards price calculator - Unit3.pas
- Doa Gems Price Calculator
The file .pas can be opened with a text editor (notepad,microsoft word ecc.)
NOTE: I Suggest to not touch nothing, just check the files then close without save.

HYAHHHHH!

It would be awesome with option to also calculate solo pieces of a conset. A lot of the time I'm only making bu's for example.

couple of questions before I download the program.

1. is it possible to get a antivirus/trojan/malware scan of the .exe?
2. how does it calculate or how does it get its vaules of the materials ? ignor Q2 im blind when it comes to reading
3. does it require an injection into guild wars ? guessing same for this as Q2 :0

Thanks in advance looking forward to your reply as this could be an ace programme

1: you MUST have always your antivirus active when yuo navigate/download or just play on internet.
When the file is downloaded you can also make a scan of the zip/rar file.
And to be sure, you can also make a scan of the .exe file when you extract it.
2: You must insert all the values manually from the trader, but just the price of 10 materials (10 bones, 10 feathers ecc...)
3:No, it doesnt require files from gw or involve files from gw.Its a program that work alone.
If you have any other questions feel free to write them ^^

Why not make it into a webpage instead where info is stored online?
Allow a select number of people to be able to update the info, or allow anyone to update the info as long as it's "minor" changes up/down (ie. to prevent trolling/sabotage).

This way you could also add a few ads to offset any cost it might generate from the website traffic.

Well, i made this program with Delphi7 and im not "expert" to make things on websites or online.
I can use databases to store data but honestly put 11 values from merchant is not a big "job", also when i edit the program and when i add things i just replace the link and i write the changes =)

Anyway, I suggest you make it open-source and include the source code to show you are truly 100% honest. I'm not saying you're not, but in these days it's always good to be sceptical.

Well, im not sure to know how to to do but ill work to try to do it.

Anyway it is a program that work offline and dont require, email,char names,any kind of password or something like that.
The program just ask you to put 11 numbers that are the prices of materials that you can read from merchant. Nothing more.

There is something like this here :
http://gw.web-widget.net/prices.php

The page is heavy on first load but it gets better then.

You can update every prices, and Donwload (DL) your "prices file" to share it with friends who can upload (UL) them.

The last tab is one of my favorite, it calculates the average amount of gold you can get by openning every kind of presents, gifts...

PS.: Nice work by the way, if you are looking for help on web developpement, let me know, or you could add an option to download prices from this site (i can return the format you want on a separate url)

Well,im trying to made a program that dont work on internet and that dont use internet resources.
In this program the only thing that user must do is set prices of material that can be obtain from the merchant, then the program do all the rest,imo is useless use databases,file and internet interfaces to just put 11 prices

By the way :
New update guys!!!
