Hello everyone, i am about to develop DUST fitting tool, similar to EFT (Eve Fitting Tool). But i am not sure if its needed, need your opinions on this. Also, is it better to be WEB Based or APP Like (i.e. similar to EFT). I can use any programming language like Java (EE/SE) / .NET(C#) / PHP or any other supportive like XML, TSQL and stuff, so app/tool could be platform independent. Also i can do a Character planner, everything is similar to current EFT and/or EVEMON. General questions: Is Community need this? If so, il begin my journey :) Thanks in advance.

Do it web based so you can change things on the fly when CCP release a new build or just change stats
Could be useful for planning your suit or vehicle
If anything id do it app for release |

As an option i can do similar on iPhone / Droid OS. Thanks for response, i am not looking for profit or something, just a useful tool for myself and everyone. |

This is a cool idea but probably not possible to do until the nda is lifted.
As for the method the way I see it there are pros and cons to each. An app based approach needs no hosting or maintenance once distributed but is more difficult to keep updated and accurate, while a web based fitting tool can be just some php and an sql database easy to update but a real pain should it ever need to migrate host. |

As someone who uses the EFT, I find a DUST tool highly useful. Going for the iPhone / Droid would be highly advantageous to me as I would love to have an iPhone app for DUST.
The heads-up I will give you though is that they are coming out with an official app for the Vita. The biggest thing I see that you can change and modify your fittings and upload them to the game (or at least, that's what I have heard). If you could make one that communicates with DUST to allow us to upload fittings on the go, that would be awesome. |

Sadly, fitting upload wont be possible because CCP wont open Auth protocol to public. If i remember correctly Vita app is going to be equivalent to Ingame one, so doing fittings from gear you own. The main reason i am using EFT is that you can decide on items to buy, before buying them or discuss on forums about loadlout etc which mobile app could lack.

Ah that's too bad. Still I would be interested in a DUST tool which would do what you described above.

CCP has a feature in backhand called CREST (Carbon REST) - it allows read and write access via API, so you can adjust something ingame without beeing online.
The Fitting-management in DUST would be the best opportunity to introduce such an API, so you can manage your fittings on PC/mobile/webapp wherever you are!
afaik: the plan for first use of CREST was for the standings and/or contacts in EVE.
please CCP make it possible! |

I think this would be a better idea, considering this is a console FPS so we can't Alt-Tab to check your fitting tool. Also i can mess about with my fittings on the train!!.

PYFA or an EFT equivalent tool would be nice. but as the game is, the item data base is far too volatile and incomplete to make this project worth it at the moment... in 6 months maybe. |

I like pools, polls,and Poles (but I will never marry a Polish woman, they are vicious and can emasculate a man with their will... They are hot though....).
But seriously this would be an awesome tool to use(of course you will only able to release it post NDA). I would definitely use it, especially if I could use it on an iPhone. Also as an employer, make this tool anyway and put it on your resume. I would use this as a plus in hiring. |

You can see some detail here as well about the Vita companion app. http://www.ign.com/articles/2012/08/20/dust-514-vita-app-details-revealed
However, I would like to see a 3rd party tool where I can make any fit (requiring any skills that I currently don't have including PG/CPU boosting skills, such as all skills maxed out) and see the effective HP and damage output etc. with the skills I do have and a list of skills I don't have after entering the ones I have manually if need be. And maybe an option to see if it was 100% passive skill point base and then enter your daily or weekly average gain in active skill points (manually enter it) so you can see about how long it would take to get into that fit. Also being able to share those fits easily with other people would be nice. More or less a combination of EveHQ's Skill planner/Fitting tool or combination of EFT and EveMon like tool. It would have to be easy to update by the developer even after Dust 514's release out of Beta, so its easy to stay current. I would pay ISK for that kind of tool. |

If this project has been dropped, I am hoping to make something similar.
If it hasn't, the data I'm collecting can be used for it. I'll be keeping an updated list in this thread.
If anyone else wants to use the data I'm collecting, once I've got it all in there, to make their own fitting tool, they're welcome to. |

I say go for it. It would be handy to carry a planner of sorts in my back pocket in the form of an Andriod App. Plus it'll give me something to distract myself with when I'm not playing DUST. Since I don't play DUST often enough, it would be a welcome relief to have an app that can give me my DUST fix ... even if it's only in the form of a character planner/fitting planner.
Fun fact - The more diverse you go, the more interested parties you'll draw in.
Suggestion - If it hasn't been said before, there should be an option to save multiple files so as to allow for larger planning schemes. Like if I could save the skill progression for 2 characters and have 5 different fits for each of them to work towards then I'll have every single one of my goals set until I nail them all.
Also don't forget vehicle fits. |

I assume ccp might well look upon this the same way Yep. Just like all the cease and desist orders that CCP have given to the people who made all the various EVE Fitting Tools using the CCP-developed API system.
Pretty sure when CREST is released, they'll be making is just as public and open-source as the current systems people have free access to.
There are various fan-made EVE tools for just about every platform it's practical to run such a tool on (and probably a few systems that AREN'T practical). CCP don't stop them, they ENCOURAGE them. And they've previously posted saying "great work" in a few threads where players have created DUST Fitting Tool equivalents using spreadsheets. |

I would much prefer a third-party-program like how EFT is. I prefer having an easy-to-use interface, with a series of drop-down menus and expandable item lists, as well as the skill tree (editable to fit your characters skills)
thanks! :) Very much appreciated if you could pull this off! |

Curren progress is: - Java 7SE based, Cross-Platform - UI (tried to copy Gripen's EFT, props to him) - Market browsing - Item selection, properties - Character creator, skill browsing
Whats left till first release: - Formulas, calculations - Updater feature - Shared "DB" feature
Currently ETA is around 2 weeks or so. Project codename is "Warbarge" and a stub site at warbarge.com |

90% of data used in Warbarge is user-generated and not based on CCP will to share it. Copyrights are ofcourse on CCP side, but i doubt there will be a problem, since i dont modify any data. System used in Warbarge is more like P2P :) |
