Comparison to GWToolboxpp

Focus View is not meant as a replacement to GWToolboxpp. Instead, it provides some functionality QOL functionality that is meant to compliment GWToolboxpp.

Daybreak scans the memory of Guild Wars (in a similar way as CheatEngine) to obtain its information. GWToolbox injects a module in the Guild Wars process in order to extend functionality.

Focus View currently runs exclusively in read mode. That means, it won't facilitate the automation of any action on the running guild wars process. Any information extracted from guild wars can only be displayed to the user, but it can't be changed.
