New Release (Jan 3rd 2004)

[Edgar1898]

Please download this new release before you go item collecting again.

Among other things, this release searches through your items for ones that havent been uploaded and uploads just those items instead of trying to upload all of them. (Saves a LOT of time)

you can download it here:

Item field count is wrong! Should be 116 but it is 114! Skipping this item

It's also adding char/bank items as new items on login, which obviously they aren't =) Is this normal behavior on the new version?

Great new feature though! Props for adding it! :)

Yes, the two new fields for items were never properly saved in the items file so thats what its complaining about. Just delete the collected items file and it will collect them again and save them properly.
