I made an inventory manager to help keep my inventory clean, looking for input on it. I realize gearcollector already exists, but there are some differences. Mine is primarily GUI, though it makes use of the itemizer plugin when using windower.

Advantages:
-Works with both Windower & Ashita
-Lays out all of your items in one view
-Reports new and missing items since last profile adjustment, allowing for easy tracking
-Can specify specific amounts of items, ie: 1 stack of holy water in inventory, rest in satchel
-Items are placed where you specify to maintain your normal organization
-Quick activation for multiple characters
-Can automatically drop items in a drop list

Downsides:
-Seperate program is bulkier, may be unnecessary for some users
-Longer setup required
-drop feature will only work when using ashita or windower 4.1

I will continue to maintain this regardless because it suits my personal needs better than gearcollector, just testing the waters to see how interested the community would be. If interest is high, I will share it openly.

If this sounds interesting to anyone, I've prepared a quick overview of how it functions including pictures. If anyone would like to test it, send me a PM and I'll get back to you later tonight. Anyway, overview:

There is no packet restriction on Windower v4.1.

I'll hit you up on skype DWB, and PM you shortly Vel. My goal with this post is to see if people feel a need for this despite GearCollector existing, and get a few people testing. There is no concern for any sort of item loss/etc, just would like to get a larger sample to rule out any potential bugs/crashes before I release it openly.

@Byrth: I just redownloaded the development build, and I'm getting told the global is a nil value when I call inject_packet(the alleged function in documentation) for an outgoing. I'm new to Lua, so I could be missing something, do you have some example code for a basic outgoing packet I could look at?
found new documentation, messing with it atm

Sounds great. If I was still playing, I'd love it because I prefer detail oriented plugins that help track a lot easier

Found/fixed a couple bugs, added full support to windower 4.1. Again, if anyone's interested in playing with this over the weekend, PM me, hoping to run it through it's paces to rule out any further bugs. Will probably post it freely on Monday. If you have a copy from prior to now, PM or IM me for latest.
