Witcher 3 XML Editor

Witcher 3 XML Editor

This editor is built to provide a robust and streamlined experience for editing Witcher 3 XML files. Its features can be broken down into three main categories:

Core Data Handling & Editing

• []Intelligent Data Parsing: The editor doesn't just open one file at a time. It recursively scans an entire folder directory, processing all .xml files. It automatically identifies and categorizes primary game definitions (<ability>, <item>, <reward>, <schematic>, <loot>) and maps them for easy access, regardless of which file they are in.
  • []Dynamic Property Editor: When you select an entry from a list, the editor generates a custom, user-friendly panel to edit its properties. Instead of raw text, you get clearly labeled fields. This panel adapts to the selected entry type:

    []For Abilities, it displays properties in an aligned grid for easy comparison.

    []For Items, Recipes, and Rewards, it uses form layouts for attributes and creates interactive lists for nested elements like ingredients, recycling_parts, or base_abilities.

    • []Context-Aware Autocompletion: Many text fields are enhanced with autocompletion popups, pulling data from a pre-generated editor_database.json. This helps ensure accuracy and saves time by suggesting existing game values for things like item names, ability names, categories, equip templates, and more.
      • []Live XML Preview: A dockable window provides a real-time, syntax-highlighted preview of the XML element you are currently editing. This allows you to see the direct result of your changes in the underlying code as you make them in the user-friendly editor.
        • []Safe Saving: The editor keeps track of all modified files. You can save the current file (Ctrl+S) or all changed files at once (Ctrl+Alt+S). It will always warn you about unsaved changes before you close the application, preventing accidental data loss.

          User Interface & Experience

          []Advanced Search Engine: A comprehensive search tool (Ctrl+F) allows you to query across all loaded files. The search is highly configurable:

          []Scope: Search within the currently selected file, all loaded files, or a specific category (e.g., only search within Items).

          []Options: The search can be case-sensitive, match whole words only, or use powerful Regular Expressions.
