I agree that some of the notations are rather cryptic.
I should definetely add some 'legend' in the output, so one can easily look up what it means.
One reason why I decided to use such a cryptic notation is because I wanted to allow people to print it out.
Have you checked
TTLL with New Dark missions? I tried to use it to locate the loot in TellTaleHeart, and it only found some 75%... or is it the limitation of Lazytaffer's "lootlist" which I use to feed the data into TTLL?gnartsch on 1/12/2012 at 09:49

Hi!
I am aware of these issues, but there is nothing that can be done about it in TTLL.
There are a few missions out there where neither LazyTaffer nor the DromED internal reports do provide a full lootlist.
And this is not specific to NewDark missions either. e.g. Reunion with Basso (Zappenduster), which came out long before.
With respect to TellTaleHeart : iirc, the loot which is not shown is all the stuff that you can get if you kill the AI's in the morgue.

So we have to live with that. I had
nearly 11 000 - all AI's exterminated - when TTLL found less than 8800. gnartsch on 31/5/2013 at 08:22
Uploaded a new version.
The tool now detects automatically if and where you have a Java Runtime installed
and uses it without bothering you to configure the path to it.
However, make sure to call the batch file via a Command-Line window instead of clicking on it in Windows!

Try loading your latest savegame into dromed and then do the internal report.
Open the mission in question and then type into the command window: edit_load_game saves/game00XX.sav
XX is the savegame number (00 to 14); you can also replace game00XX.sav with quick.sav
I've been using the hell out of this feature. It's great fun when you run into an area with lots of AIs to add a few haunts or bug beasts :devil: or fire elementals :ebil: and set their team to good. Have you seen a fire elemental when it kills an enemy? It won't stop firing for a good 3 seconds.

A few weeks ago I had to make a full Thief2 reinstall (same original CD's, Tafferpatcher). Everything works as a dream - except TTLL (or at least this new version). The previous one did work perfectly with my old install for a long time. JRE remained untouched.
Now it finds my JRE installation correctly, "ttll/?" works, but trying to run ttll.bat on a lazytaffer text file ("ttll.bat -i:text.txt") returns this:
--- "Launching the Trickster's Loot Locator...
Using JRE in "C:\Program Files\Java\jre7
"C:\Program" is not recognized as an internal or external command..."
---
Why does the space in "Program Files" confuse TTLL? It never did before :confused:
Thanks for a quick hand.

I had to add some scripting code to make the auto-detection of the JRE work properly.
And this required some considerable changes on the batch file and on how the JRE is finally lauched.
Please open the ttll.bat file with a Text-Editor and scroll to the very bottom.
And add the missing double-quotes as indicated here.
Code:
call "%JRE_HOME%\bin\java.exe" -jar TTLL.jar %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
EDIT: by the way: ttll.bat /? does not work.
Please use
in case you want to see the command-line options !

Thanks a lot, I fixed the bat file as indicated and now it really works (ttll/? with the original file actually presented a lot of text about the CALL argument before...:weird:).
But it's still not quite healthy: the resulting html does not show the secrets at all, while they *are* listed in the lazytaffer txt file.
BTW, in the meantime I found a backup copy of the previous (v0.53) version - and it works perfectly, all secrets shown! Weird...:devil:

/? is no longer supported. Use /h instead in case you need it.
Windows is catching /? and there is nothing I can do about it.
Oh,.... the secrets. No problem. I simply forgot to add the default-switches for secrets and pickpockets in the new batch file.
Thanks for pointing that out !

It's working beautifully now! I sincerely appreciate your prompt (and most efficient :thumb:) response.
