Conclusion from the author[edit]
This information is provided after careful testing of this software, the idea of this article is to provide information on what other GW players in the world are using to help their gaming. The philosophy behind, is to inform and let people make their own choices. Some GW players like a graphical environnement that has all the needed information collected on a map, others prefer to link to text on a web site like Wiki, still others will use both ways depending of their current need. If you need a technical description of a particular Skill for example or a tiny map to show where it is most of the time, Wiki is more complete. If you are capping, MappingOut will be very useful to tell you what you can cap in an area, where to cap it as well as the spawns of some of the bosses that changes locations. What remains to be capped in that area as well as what you capped so far. Green locations, locations for capturing some rare pets, as well as treasure location and a time-stamp on your last capture is very useful to keep track of things. The note feature is also a very useful one. I've been using it when I was still in Pre to mark certain passages and features and loved the labyrinth map that I could not find anywhere else at the time. Although I ran into vitriolic opposition to provide this information, my pleasure comes from the fact that maybe, you my reader may find something that you can appreciate and bring a little light to the difficulties of this game.

Checksum?[edit]
I am glad you posted this article, as I'm interested in using the software. Do you happen to know if the author ever included a checksum for any version of his software?
The fact that it is stand-alone is great. I'm worried, though, that there are so many sources and I can't judge the reliability of those sites... so I wonder about the ability of someone to sneak in some malware.
Thanks! — Tennessee Ernie Ford (TEF) 04:07, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
