M2Manager – Simple, Efficient Server & Client Data Management

M2Manager is a simple tool designed to simplify working with server and client data.

Currently, it is possible to add and edit Items and Monsters. All changes are saved immediately, with no need for manual post-processing.

To use the tool, you must specify the unpacked client and connection to the server. M2Manager automatically reads all relevant data.

Ahoy!

Since I’ve been asked several times about sales, features, and pricing, I wanted to give you all an update. The first release is planned for the end of July / beginning of August. The Community version will be released first and will serve as a beta release. About a week later, sales will start—provided everything is working as expected.

The tool will be available in two versions: a Community and a Professional version. Both versions will receive patches and updates, and later on, additional extensions will be available for purchase.

Feel free to leave feedback about what features you’d like to see in the tool.

Pretty neat idea. 

[Dex 826]

Ahoi,

there are some news! To achieve more compatibility and flexibility, the M2Manager has been fully refactored and migrated from the old tech stack PyQt6 to Tauri + React v18. The UI has been completely redesigned and the project restructured to make it easier to add new extensions or expand existing ones. All components of an extension are reusable.

 

Setup Wizard

The wizard is now more intuitive and offers the possibility to set preferences on first launch. All configurations are stored locally in a SQLite database and can be changed at any time. Currently, you only need to provide the extracted pack directory and the application performs an autodiscovery for all required files/paths. Individual paths can be specified manually as a fallback in case autodiscovery fails and to give you the option to enter them manually.

 

Dashboard

The dashboard provides various statistics, currently focused on players/characters. Data can be filtered and the charts are interactive. The Recharts library was used for this purpose.

 

Item Module

The Item Module allows you to switch between TXT and SQL. Here you can edit the items accordingly. Clicking on a row opens the Item Editor, where the item icon can generally be modified (currently not fully available yet). A search function is also available, including a shortcut to focus it.

 

Mob Module

This module is currently still a work in progress. At the moment, only the table and the search function are displayed — more coming later.

 

Shop Module

This module is used to manage NPC shops. Items can be added/removed, the item count can be adjusted, and the shop grid can be customized. Additionally, the Granny model of the NPC is visually displayed here. Shops can also be completely removed. Everything happens directly via queries.

 

I plan to upload the repository to GitHub in the next few days and release a first version including the modules presented in the preview.

 

What will the release include?

- Edit item proto
- Edit mob proto + model display
- Edit item icons
- Fully manage shops
- Several filter functions for the tables
- Load Granny models

 

What is currently being actively worked on?

Currently, only Granny models with a single texture can be loaded correctly. Models that have more than one texture do load, but they look accordingly broken. In addition, animation integration is planned to be introduced.
