Release: NavBot rev. E

At last, the highly-anticipated, oft-requested revision E is here, bringing full support for the revelations II patch - download now!

Changes include:

• Revelations II suport
• Even easier setup and install - simply click and run!
• Quantity of items to buy displayed (at last, no more using the calculator)
• Fixed crash when using items with several "-" in the name
• No longer crashes if the clipboard is unavailable

Sorry it took so long, I hope you like it! I've a couple of things left on the feature list for revision F, but if you'd like to add to them, get in touch!

Happy trading!

P.S. NavBot may require "Run as Administrator" to work under Windows Vista.

Coming soon... revision E

Sorry for the lack of updates recently - the graphics card in my laptop blew up and I'm reluctant to put out any new releases without being able to test them in EVE myself. HP wanted 10+ working days, so I'm expecting the laptop back in the next week or two.

There's not a lot wrong with revision D, but revision E is already looking quite a lot better. A rather nasty bug that causes errors when you try to search for items with lots of -s in the name (such as most implants) has been fixed, and a few helpful tweaks have already been added, such as showing the quantity of items you need to buy.

Until then... happy trading!

Release: NavBot rev. D

It's beautiful, it's simple, and now it's even faster than before! NavBot revision D is here. Here's 5 great things about revision D:

1. It's like, 5 times faster.
2. Your available isk and cargo are now saved, which means you don't have to keep checking what the cargo size of your Mk 4 Iteron is.
3. Items with a "-" in the name now work. Long live implant trading!!
4. The list of trade reports now caculates the age of each report correctly, instead of adding the time difference between you and GMT.
5. You can click on a button to change the isk/cargo instead of pressing "Enter" and hoping.

I love it, and I hope you will too. NavBot is right here, waiting for you...

Release: NavBot rev. C

With the help of countless pilots from the community and some outstanding individual contributions (you know who you are), I proudly present: NavBot rev. C!

New in this revision:

1. Useful error messages instead of crashes!
2. Better support for non-EN localization. Did NavBot give you drunken, meaningless results? It shouldn't now!
3. The letter 'C'!!!!!!!11122

As always, please post your problem reports and error messages as comments to this post!

Happy trading :-)

NavBot requires XP SP2

Thanks to everyone who's written in with their error reports; we've discovered that one of the web server classes NavBot uses is only supported on Windows XP SP2, Windows Server 2003 and, presumably, Vista. Sorry about that, everyone! If you can, then upgrade to SP2. If not, then I'll take a look and see if I can replace the class, but I'd rather not write my own web server from scratch ;-)

There are a couple of other error reports coming in, of wildly innacurate profit predictions (including cases where no profit should be possible) and of crashes when trying to view market reports or search for trade routes. I suspect the former *may* be related to localisation; I'm working on a German-localized laptop (ja, ich wohne hier in Deutschland) with the English-language EVE download and an English-language Visual Studio (ja, so gut ist mein Deutch noch nicht!).

I can easily imagine some combinations might be getting their "," and "." confused. I'll try to reproduce this tonight, and hopefully send out a revision C with fixes for this tomorrow or the day after.

Have a nice day,
OpenCloud

Release: NavBot rev. B

Firstly, thanks to everyone who's posted or written to me to tell me you like NavBot! It makes me happy :-)

Ahem. Secondly: Sorry to everyone who's had problems with revision A. Just for you, I've put together a quick revision B with the same features but extra error reporting. I've opened up the public comments on this page, so please post your error logs here and I'll try to work out what's going on!

Release: NavBot rev. A

After many occasionally late evenings, here is NavBot rev. A, ready for your pleasure.

Assuming, that is, that you already have the .NET 2.0 runtime from Microsoft (you might, you might not).

In testing, NavBot often found trips worth 20-40% of Tejar's total cash within a single system. That's right, 0-jump profit is everywhere.

Enjoy!
