Show HN: Diablo 2 runeword calculator in C++ using wxWidgets

5 points| bed147373429 | 2 years ago |github.com

I have programmed this a few years ago and I use it while playing. I decided to publish it because it might be useful to others. Feel free to give feedback! I am also interested in people who have used QT and wxWidgets, because I have never really used QT and would like to know about pros and cons of QT vs wxWidgets!

Interesting that you've decided to provide your own wxWidgets DLLs instead of using the official ones (see https://www.wxwidgets.org/downloads/). Is there some reason for this or did you just not know about the existence of the latter?

I just thought the average diablo gamer will not know how to do that or which of these hundred files will be required. I also tried statically linking but I VisualStudio kept throwing errors at me so the easiest way to make the tool accessible for non-tech people was just uploading the dlls too
