🦾 Advanced Functionality

Monitoring Suite (MonitorWindow)

AssetsManager includes a professional suite of tools to automatically track changes in game assets without manual intervention.

• Monitor Dashboard: A central hub providing a real-time status overview of all background services, PBE status, and system health.
• File Watcher: Monitors remote JSON files for updates. When a change is detected, the app automatically saves versions and logs the difference for comparison.
• Asset Tracker: Keeps a persistent list of specific assets to track, checking their status periodically with intelligent fallback logic for extensions.
• History View: All detected changes are saved in a persistent history where you can browse past updates and view detailed diffs.
• Backups: Section to manage and control local backups of your League of Legends PBE file system.
• API Center: Powerful utility to query League of Legends APIs for real-time sales, Mythic Shop items, and player information.

3D Visualization & Extraction

• Animation Playback: Apply .anm files to loaded skeletons to see models in motion with high-performance skinning.
• Smart Saving: Automatically converts raw game formats (like textures to .png or binary data to .json) while preserving the original folder structure during extraction.
• 3D Models & MapGeometry: Inspect 3D models of champions .skn with their animations .anm and MapGeometry Environments .mapgeo.
• Animation Playback: Apply .anm (animation) files to a loaded skeleton to see the model come to life with full skinning support.
• Scene Control: Manipulate the 3D camera, manage loaded parts, and inspect model geometry.
