NPC.ini Parser

Ah, well I know this is REALLY simple, but as I was rummaging through my hard drive, I found something that might be useful to some people. It pretty much goes through the npc.ini and parses the data and writes it to a new text file, and writes it like this,

Code:

10-19	Storekeeper

Yeah its pretty simple, but it should help most people.

You MIGHT need to change the value of the 1122 in "for (int x = 1; x < 1122; x++)" depending on what patch the npc.ini is.

Code:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.IO;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

namespace NPC.ini_Parser
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Console.Title = "Npc.ini Parser";
            IniFile NPC = new IniFile(Application.StartupPath + "/npc.ini");

            StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter(Application.StartupPath + "/Npc Info.txt");
            for (int x = 1; x < 1122; x++)
            {
                string name = NPC.ReadString("NpcType" + x.ToString(), "Name", "Error");
                switch (name)
                {
                    case "Error":
                        continue;
                    default:
                        sw.WriteLine(x.ToString() + "0-" + x.ToString() + "9\t" + name);
                        break;
                }
            }
            sw.Close();
            Console.WriteLine("Npc.ini  has been parsed.");
