Hello ;]

Recently i was reading news and i bumped onto this: http://www.aionsourc...icons-chat.html after reading i tought it would be nice to have some kind of app to make pasting that icon in chat easier. So i made my little app (in JAVA). Hope someone finds it useful. ;]

Usage:

1. open app by doubleclicking in AionChatIcon.jar
2. click on button with icon that you want to be copied into clipboard
3. Alt-Tab back to game
4. Ctrl+v in open chat, shop description, legion notice etc to paste it. ;]
5. enjoy the game ;]

Requirements:

1. Installed JRE (Java Runtime Environment ) - downloadable at Java SE Downloads - Sun Developer Network (SDN)

This app shouldn't be breaking Aions EULA, all it does is copying strings into clipboard, same way you do it with ctrl+c. For paranoic ppl (afraid of password/login scams) please run this app AFTER runnig and loging into game to be sure that nothing bad will happen ;]. Also feel free to make scan with any avaible web virus scanners.

Also pls post any comments, sugestions, ideas for future features that can be added.

UI may still be lacking some finishing touches but it should work fine as it is.

Best regards. Yabco.

1. not everyone has java installed
2. everyone playing aion will be using windows.
3. all windows machines can run HTA files.
4. HTA files are just normal html files rendered using the clients InternetExploder engine.
5. IE jScript has a method that copys a supplied parameter to the clipboard.


I recently made a crafting calculator as a windows sidebar widget, and having realised windows xp users can't use it...i'll be looking at moving it into a htc file.

I'm impressed that you were able to come up with something like this and it's very clever so thanks for sharing it but....I really don't think this is entirely necessary at all. It is actually possible to retain an entire list of icons to copy and paste from within the game using the Memo Pad. You don't need to leave the game at all to grab an icon and paste it into your chat bar.

Here are some simple instructions:

1. Download the file attached to this post and "copy" the entire contents.
2. In Aion, select Menu > Community > Memo Pad
3. Use Ctrl+V to paste into the Memo Pad.

That's all folks! Now whenever you want a symbol just select it from the Memo Pad in Aion and use Ctrl+C to copy it, then Ctrl+V to paste it into the chat bar (or your private store).
