    Default Neocron apps

    Hi,

    I was wondering if there are any Neocron apps for your mobile phone out there?

    I'm not sure if it's possible to make or if it costs anything (I'm sure if it was easy and free it would have been done by now) but I was thinking how handy it would be to have something like nskill or the rares db on my phone so I could make set uos etc on the go.

    Sorry if to you technically gifted people out there if this seems like a stupid idea but I was just interested.

    Anyone know?

    Not sure how likely it is that apps will be written for that stuff, mobile sites are more likely.

    I'm not sure there's really much scope for it though. After all, when was the last time you were on a train and found a frame of a Cursed Soul lying about...? :-p

    Yeah might be more nskill oriented or something I just think it would be nice to create set ups etc on my phone when I'm on lunch or something

    I actually wrote a rare-db interface for windows mobile (the old version) a few years ago, but that wudn't work anymore with titan, and probably some new api's
    ingame names: Biglines (dissy spy), Mr Tool (low tech tank), Engineer Tool (constructor), Medical Tool (ppu/hacker/poker), Father Tool (apu)

    There is a Windows Phone app but needs an update before I can release it. Developers for other platforms or desktops should contact me for getting some information about the (new) api.

    NSkill won't run on anything other than Windows with .Net I'm afraid (Ok, Linux with mono perhaps, or other variants!)

    If a mobile version were to be made, it would be a Windows Phone (as opposed to Windows Mobile) version (which I'd prefer greatly!), or a mobile friendly web app (which I'd think was more useful, but an arse and take too much time). I won't be looking into Android or iOS development: again, time is key.

    It is something I've thought about over the past few months though - NSkill does need some loving.

    thanks for the input Steven,

    I thought that the reason something like hadnt been done before would be because it wasnt simple or quick.

    sounds like its pretty complicated!

    There's mono for Android and iOS too: http://docs.xamarin.com/ios/releases.../MonoTouch_5.0
    Doesn't get around the fact that nSkill presumably uses windows.forms however.
