I planned to give it an update until the 10th so people who were using it for the Wii could save/load to track 3D without loosing the Wii progress. The plan is still up, but since its already out on europe, its better to create the topic for those interested.



Unfortunately, google took it out from Google Play, because there was another "Xenoblade" app in the play store and they decided I was a copycat and would have to prove I had the rights over the name (after explaining both were guides for a Wii game lol). So I renamed it and will possibly try GPlay again next week, I can't guarantee though.



You can download it at: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/xzpkfkgg82sgw15/AAD9XpgZd4QrmDSgu0-tIIZIa?dl=0



To install, you will have to enable Settings->Security->Unknown Sources on your phone (and you can uncheck it after).

Some months ago I made an android app for helping with quests, warning lockouts with the minimum spoiler, keeping track of the Unique Monsters you killed among other things.I planned to give it an update until the 10th so people who were using it for the Wii could save/load to track 3D without loosing the Wii progress.

User Info: HAlyssa14 HAlyssa14 5 years ago #2 Is there any way we could get this on App Store for iPhone? I would love it. Although I'm not sure what the process is for creating apps so this may be more difficult than I realise.



I have started making my own little guide type thing on Excel, just a checklist. And I would like to say I very much appreciate the work you've put into this as it has taken far longer than I expected. Thanks!

In SA2, it's Super Sonic and Hyper Shadow. Oh, nice. I can't be spoiled anymore, but it seems like a handy app to have. Will definitely try it out.

Great app so far though. Definitely quick & easy to look stuff up.



I suppose what would truly complete it is:

- NPC location guide & what times they are out. Perhaps also connected NPC's, and if you click on their name you'll go to info part of that NPC.

- Regular monster list + drops & drop %

- Unique monster drops & drop %

- Item guide

- And like with the NPC's, everything linked to each other. So when you open an item description, you can click on the monster to get to the monster info and vice versa. Also any quests related to them.



Not saying you should really do all this. Just giving some ideas, in-case you have the intention to improve the app even further. Read the mania: http://www.fanfiction.net/~nonexistinghero

60% of my work was editing images, restructuring and editing the data I got from amarise's FAQ, wikia and spreadsheet. The other 40% have to be done from the zero to port to iOS.



Its possible it happening, but considering the last three months, I shouldn't even give you a release window. If there's an iOS developer among us wanting to do it, I would be glad to share those 60% and even give tips about the 40%.



These are the source for my app, which aren't as convenient as an app, but are very helpful and more complete:

an option to mark quests as "completed", while also crossing out quests that can't be completed anymore as a result.

Its already there. Complete an Mutually Exclusive quest and the other path will be locked out in the app automatically (it also marks in the "Items needed" section, the quest items so you know they aren't needed anymore and can sell them). You can filter ME quests though the branching icon, give a try in one of them.



And I suppose maybe an option to sort by questlines.

Its there too, the sort button (AZ) will sort them using the quest menu order, which does group them by questlines (Note that you have to 'progress story' in the app to show later quests).



About the rest, thanks for the suggestions, I appreciate it (really). As I said above, I can't guarantee anything soon, but I do plan to keep improving the app. In the mean time, you can find all these info by long clicking on the quest/item/monster, which should take you to xenoblade wikia of what you clicked. The links stopped working recently, but I will fix this in the next days at least.

I hope you can keep up the good work then :)



Edit: Huh, I just realized there doesn't seem to be a map feature with the locations. I suppose that would be nice too. Read the mania: http://www.fanfiction.net/~nonexistinghero

In SA2, it's Super Sonic and Hyper Shadow. Huh, I had no idea that the option to mark quests as completed was on the left. I'm amazed it's in there already. Same for the questlines.I hope you can keep up the good work then :)Edit: Huh, I just realized there doesn't seem to be a map feature with the locations. I suppose that would be nice too.

Mostly redesigned! I gave up on copying the game design, hope people like it, next step is replace some of the icons (for now, I just replaced the timer which was the lowest resolution of them all) and improve the list designs.



You can now: save, load, duplicate, delete and make a backup of everything you checked. Now you can alternate between Wii and 3DS or even multiple saves on one of them in a couple clicks.

Yup. Its relatively easy so I was thinking on putting it for a while. The recent changes took priority, but hopefully I will have time to that soon. Version 1.4 is out! (follow the opening post, even if you have old version installed, you can just install normally and it will be replaced without losing data)Mostly redesigned!

User Info: RennanNT RennanNT (Topic Creator) 5 years ago #9 Just had an idea: sort/filter quests by exp.



Many veterans complains about you not being able to do quests because its over level you (I'm in there too). There are quests that by themselves will make you level up if you do as soon as available, but if you wait, they will become less and less significant. Initial quests gives around 50 exp. One would level you up at the beginning. At level 14 it would need 20 of them to level up. At level 45, you would need 400 of them. A quest that rewards you 1000 exp would level you up to lv 15, but would need 20 of them once you're lv45. Notice the pattern?



Since I can guess around which level you're based on your progress and wikia tells me how many exp you need to level up, I could filter them so it would only appear quests that will give not significant exp. Example for adjustable filter level:

- Only quest which doesn't give exp

- Only quests filling at most 1/100 of a level

- Only quests filling at most 1/20 of a level

- Only quests filling at most 1/4 of a level



This way we don't have to do all at once in end game, nor be skipping battles to not over level.



I might have time to develop this during next weekend, so what do you guys think? Better just sort them by exp or filter by how much of a level it fills? Perhaps another idea?
