Wireshark! I Discovered How to Extract Build Data! - TLI Hero Rank Dev Journal

I've been experimenting with Wireshark to capture and decode network traffic from Torchlight Infinite, and the results have been fantastic so far. We've moved beyond screenshot-based OCR leaderboard collection and can now extract much richer ranking data directly from network packets. I'm working on extracting complete character builds, including equipment, affixes, skills, talents, etc. In this dev journal, I demonstrate the new leaderboard data, and preview a prototype of Hero Profile extraction. It's a lot of effort to collect this game data, but I'm hopeful that it will be used to better support creators! All collection must still be done manually, so there is a major limitation to the amount of data we can collect. But I'm optimistic that TLI could still receive API support at some point in the future. XD if you read this - Western audiences like to build tools, give us a limited API and it would be a huge help! The character profile system is still experimental, but the possibilities are exciting. My long-term goal is to bring something closer to the depth of poe.ninja to Torchlight Infinite. Let me know if you have questions or feedback! Looking forward to expanding this effort and getting some builds published! TLI Hero Rank: https://tliherorank.com Discord thread:   / discord   #TorchlightInfinite #Wireshark #TLIHeroRank
