If only the SWGCraft resources were dependable... Tempest uses a dedicated website for tracking that completely blows away SWGCraft. If the person running SWGCraft could intergrate this system, and keep the interesting add-on's he's developed, everyone would win. The problem with SWGCraft lies in that there is basically no accountability in who posts what, and when, plus very few maintainers.

Jedi will never be a starting profession...Looted items and quest items will never be better then crafted items, this is not a loot based game...CH will return shortly...CH and BE will not be back in game...Rangers are getting their revamp next!...The stealth system will not be changing in the spy expertise...Need any more examples of things the devs said that did not hold true?

the maintenance is purely up to the community, that is you and your fellow server crafters. The swgcraft system is working wonders as far as i see it, we are the ones who should be ashamed that we dont upgrade it, maybe its time to pay the noobs to do it

Yes, that's the problem in a nutshell. Everyone wants neato cool things to play with the data, but no one wants to do the work to put in the data.

Depending on the maintainers is all wel and good. It works very will for our site. The problem lies in people who purposely put in false stats, make stuff appear to have un-spawned before it actually has, purposely not entered a resource because they want to get more than everyone else, etc...


If there is no accountability, this kind of thing happens. Annonomous postings are a bad idea. *Thats* why SWGCraft is insufficient for every server. Your server might be okay, but 10 others will be horrible. Like I said, I think some of the add-ons are great (I wish theyd activate the email parser already!!). But the old adage holds true...


Garbage in, Garbage out

Here's an interesting thought. I'm sure it'd take a hell of a lot of work to parse the old data, but is there a way we could create a database of Armorsmith resources for each server on the AS website we're planning?

as far as I know a guildmate of mine already made a program like this. It can pull any old data from any server. I will play with it a little to see all the options, I haven't used it in a while.


He may just let you use his program, it could save everyone a lot of time. I just don't think he wants everyone coming to our guild website to eat up his bandwidth. I will PM Caile the link and see what he thinks

well, I suppose since he put it on the swgcraft forums he wouldn't mind a few trying it out. I am pretty sure he is still hosting it. Can search for server best, etc, and pick and choose what it searches for

Should have an update by this weekend, unless this command that i found works out for me.


/ui messagebox create


Not sure of the usage, but been playing around with it quite a bit tonight.


if anyone knows anything more, or happens tobe able to ask a developer or something *hint Caile* let me know!

I've noticed with the curent build, when I use this, some of the resources are missing their Oq, and I think where it would say the oq, instead, it says /Echo, as if it looked like /echo /echo for some reason. anyone else having this, or am I just a Noob?

Aye,


I've seen some missing OQ, Polymer I think it was.


Also not seeing creature resources, but that may be a setting I havent poked around with.
