Junkyard Dog (JYD) Homepage

This site is under heavy construction but.. here is the Installation file for Junkyard Dog Installer  beta.

As a note to that, since it is in beta, it will have a lot of debug output in the folder that the .dll is installed to. A new .log file is created every day, so it is okay to delete old ones if no bugs are encountered on that day.

It is important that you actually read the Readme.txt file. If you don't read the readme file and one of your items gets eaten, it's your problem. Of course, it's still your problem if one of your items get eaten, but that shouldn't happen if you read the Readme.txt.

Version History

Junkyard Dog Installer - Version 0.8.0.0  beta

Now JYD reads from the login packet to see if you are using Stretch UI or not. If you decide to switch Stretch UI on or off in the middle of playing without relogging... Relog!

- Added two new settings: Timing Factor and Pyreal Limit, and implemented both (see below for details)
- The Timing Factor is basically how long JYD will wait for certain packets before deciding that the function has failed. It is recommended that you leave it alone unless you are having problems. If you are on a laggy connection and get lots of fail messages, then increasing this value may help you. Or, if you think that JYD waits too long for packets to come back, and should declare them as failed sooner, feel free to lower the value. (10000 is default, time is in milliseconds)
- Pyreal Limit is a way to filter JYD from salvaging items equal to or above a certain value in pyreals. Example: you pickup items from time to time worth 45,000 or more, and you don't want them salvaged. So you set Pyreal Limit to 45000 (no commas please!) and these items will no longer be salvaged. Leave at zero to leave this filtering function off. (0 is default)
- I *think* I added support for 1280*960 resolution. The reason I say I think is because I don't have that resolution so I had to calculate values for 1280*960, but I have no way of knowing if they are correct. If you are running 1280*960 (not windowed mode though) and you have problems that you do not have at other resolutions, please email me (Firilisun ) yeah, my email address changed... evil pacbell

Junkyard Dog Installer - Version 0.7.2.0  beta
- The basic JYD User Interface (UI) should now be completely functional.  There is no longer any need to manually edit " settings.xml" for any reason.
Please email me  Firilisun if the UI does not behave as you expected or with suggestions to improving the UI.

Junkyard Dog Installer - Version 0.7.1.2   beta

Junkyard Dog Installer - Version 0.7.1.0 beta
- ALL resolutions now supported.  There are no resolution caps.  Resolutions are verified only in full-screen mode.
- The JYD window has LARGE TEXT telling you DO NOT MOVE THE MOUSE !!! during salvaging operations.  Guess why...
- Internal logic has been changed to improve performance, particularly in "busy" locations.  Busy is not lag...
- A second set of checks has been added for tinkering and inscribing, requiring a second set of packets.  This is to reduce the chance that a single bad packet will allow an uber item to be zapped.  This DOES slow down some phases of JYD.  What the Dev giveth (see the preceding item), the Dev taketh away.

Junkyard Dog Installer - Version 0.7.0.6 beta
- Partial bags must be located in the main pack prior to the start of salvaging. (This, actually, was always the case; I just didn't know this earlier.  I may fix this later, we'll see.)

Junkyard Dog Installer - Version 0.7.0.0 beta
- Stretch UI is now supported.  Resolutions remain capped at 1280H by 768V and lower.
- The STOP button now has some functionality - read item #5 under Current Status.


 Requirements;
 Decal - Version 2.5.0.2
Imp Filter - Version 2.8.0.8
MSXML Core - Version 4.0 SP1
