Tyrant Unleashed Optimizer

Important Information

I quit playing TU. Version 3.7.0 (from 05.08.2014) is the last version released by me. This webpage will no longer be updated. Thanks for using tu_optimize. Your contibutions and feedback were amazing.

Download

To download a .zip containing the latest release for windows use this button.

liparis(kongregate)/xraynaud(github) provides OSX compiled binaries. They are available here. Thanks liparis!

You can find detail about changes in latest version in README.md

General remark: I do my very best to keep tu_optimize free of virus and any other malware. However I do not take any liabilities for this program. For details please check the license information 16. Limitation of Liability.

Installation

Extract the ZIP-file. If you know how to use the command shell open it and navigate to the folder containing tu_optimze.exe.Now you can start your first simulation. Have fun.

The ZIP-File contains a version of cards.xml and missions.xml. However these files get outdated if new content is releases.
Easiest way to update the files if to use the menu entry Update XMLs in SimpleTUOptimizeStarter.exe.
To manually update the files save cards.xml and missions.xml to the data folder. Right mouse click on the link above and Save target as... normally helps here.
The update and the links above directly refer to the same files the TU app uses. If new cards or missions are available in the TU app then this new content is also available in tu_optimize after the update.
Important information: if new skills are added this update won't help. For new skills an updated version of tu_optimize is needed.

Tyrant Unleashed Optimizer Starter

If you are not so happy using command line tools there is also a very simple tu_optimze launcher. Navigate to the folder containing SimpleTUOptimizeStarter.exe. You can start this file and will get a new window to start your first simulation.

SimpleTUOptimizeStarter.execan cause virus alerts in certain tools (more information).

Compile and build yourself - let's get nerdy

Prerequisits

To compile this yourself on windows it is highly recommended to install Nuwen - MinGW first. This will give you all the development tools. Especially a gcc compiler and git support for the next steps.

Explore the root folder of MinGW and execute the file set_distro_paths.bat, a command prompt window will appear. Use this command shell for the next steps.

Everyone needs to do these steps ONE TIME.

>git clone git://github.com/zachanassian/tu_optimize
>cd tu_optimize
>git checkout master
>mkdir obj
>make

Now you should have a file tu_optimize.exe to run your sim.

If Tyrant Optimizer is updated on github

>git pull origin
>make

If Tyrant Unleashed gets updated

>wget -O cards.xml http://mobile.tyrantonline.com/assets/cards.xml
>wget -O missions.xml http://mobile.tyrantonline.com/assets/missions.xml
