Revision as of 20:33, 7 July 2010

Response from TOR (2)

Ok, here's TOR's latest response on the PvP skill problem:

>Ok, I confirmed that the code has the same ID between PvP and PvE. Sorry. Is there still a way to fix it? - KJ

>Argh. Not one that won't require some additional coding and modifications. And as, sadly, this is a project that will only ever help one wiki, it might take time to find the resources and time to implement (how much time -- I don't really know, might be long though).

I'll ask around to see how other sites that are using gwbbcode have coped with this, but my bet is they simply haven't taken the time to properly update the data. But maybe...

Do you want some sort of ad hoc solution? Like removing the pvp versions altogether? - TOR

I told him that we might as well keep the PvP versions until we figure something out. Karate KJ for sig Jesus 17:52, 24 November 2009
Just change every space in the code to a + ;o (no, I really don't know anything about coding) ---Chaos- (talk) -- 19:41, November 24, 2009 (UTC)
Not that simple. When copy/pasting into the skill template (in Guild Wars itself) you notice the numbers and letters are fairly similar. Well, with all of the various skills contained in the 4 games, you literally have thousands of combinations you can potentially wind up with. The problem is, adding a + to those templates would count as another character, not as space. So you'd wind up with a (quite possibly) broken template. Mcbig sysop 02:43, November 25, 2009 (UTC)
can't we just make things like spirit bond (pvp) have the same code as spirit bond? i dont know anything about coding, but if we can set spirit bonds code to be whatever numbers + letters, why not make pvp be identical, it seems like a simple concept in my head. flaw somewhere? Gringo 05:20, November 25, 2009 (UTC)
I thought of the same thing. I think of many things. ---Chaos- (talk) -- 10:43, November 25, 2009 (UTC)

Hey, guys. Just a little update on this. TOR said he fixed the problem and it should be dl'ing correctly now. Try it out and let me know if it's still doing it. Karate KJ for sig Jesus 02:36, 26 November 2009

it's worth noting that PvE and PvP do have different IDs...so...yeh... ~ PheNaxKian talk 22:16, November 28, 2009 (UTC)
Well, son of a bitch. I'll let TOR know. Thanks. Karate KJ for sig Jesus 22:19, 28 November 2009
disregard that, talking with poke leads to confusions (he said they had diff ideas, that link seemed to confirm it, he just checked in game himself and they do have the same IDs...so >.> (i lack playing capability atm so I can't personally check)) ~ PheNaxKian talk 22:30, November 28, 2009 (UTC)
To clear that up, PvE and PvP versions of skills are different skills and as such have different skill ids (as the internal skill database was never meant to offer multiple versions of one single skill). The thing is just that when generating the skill template code in-game, it treats PvP version skills as PvE version skills. That way PvE skill templates are the same as PvP skill templates (and allows to load PvP builds in PvE and vice-versa without having lots of blanks for missing skills). Of course this makes it impossible to identify if a skill template was meant for PvP or PvE (unless there are PvE-only skills in there of course). The easiest way to give people the ability to display a build, with the correct skill descriptions, would be to introduce some parameter that makes them say "mode = pvp" so the script actually translates the PvE skill ids into PvP skill ids before the actual skill description is read. Of course this would require some additional database to get the PvP ids from PvE ids (and the other way for skill template code generation). That way you would treat the PvP skills as single skills afterwards and could simply store the PvP description under the PvP skill id. poke | talk 22:39, November 28, 2009 (UTC)
Ok...then. I had already informed TOR and he seems to think that the link we gave him will actually help. If he changes the PvP skill IDs to the IDs on that page will they actually work in-game? If not, then I'd better tell him not to waste his time. Karate KJ for sig Jesus 22:42, 28 November 2009
What link do you mean?
Well, I would simply treat the PvP versions as single skills (as they are actually) and add them to the database with their PvP skill id and the correct data; then I would simply add a routine that works after decoding a skill template but before receiving the skill data, and for the other way after getting the skill ids from the skill name, so before generating the template code. This routine would simply look up the skill id and get the PvP/PvE skill id (depending on which is needed) - if available. So the actual code would not be influenced at all, but there would be just an "extension" that has two hooks at the correct places to get the correct skill id for displaying the correct data. poke | talk 22:51, November 28, 2009 (UTC)
Btw. I'm looking through the code right now and probably can tell you soon where exactly those places would be. poke | talk 22:51, November 28, 2009 (UTC)
That would be great, because....if you can't tell....I really don't know much about this stuff. Karate KJ for sig Jesus 22:56, 28 November 2009
Okay, here we go; First of all we create some code to get the correct skill id, these functions will be used later as explained below. Simply add this code somewhere (preferably at the end) of gwbbcode.inc.php:
// Skill ID conversion database
$pvpSkillIds = array( 2657 => 415, 2852 => 79, 2853 => 39, 2855 => 176, 2856 => 562, 2857 => 257, 2858 => 348,
    2859 => 2628, 2860 => 181, 2861 => 398, 2862 => 826, 2863 => 817, 2864 => 1191, 2865 => 1217,
    2866 => 791, 2867 => 1246, 2868 => 792, 2869 => 1639, 2870 => 1367, 2871 => 1397, 2872 => 104,
    2873 => 1484, 2874 => 1485, 2875 => 1549, 2876 => 1555, 2877 => 1564, 2878 => 1771, 2879 => 1596,
    2880 => 1598, 2882 => 15, 2883 => 343, 2884 => 1516, 2885 => 118, 2887 => 294, 2888 => 1539,
    2891 => 268, 2892 => 1114, 2893 => 793, 2895 => 2005, 2925 => 2069, 2959 => 1724, 2965 => 1239,
    2966 => 1742, 2967 => 1520, 2969 => 432, 2998 => 19, 2999 => 243, 3002 => 374, 3003 => 1232,
    3004 => 1238, 3005 => 911, 3006 => 871, 3007 => 3042, 3008 => 920, 3009 => 1266, 3010 => 1249,
    3011 => 1250, 3012 => 1251, 3013 => 981, 3014 => 921, 3015 => 1252, 3016 => 982, 3017 => 923,
    3018 => 963, 3019 => 1253, 3020 => 3043, 3021 => 1380, 3022 => 1734, 3023 => 1745, 3024 => 1747,
    3025 => 1748, 3026 => 1558, 3027 => 1572, 3028 => 1575, 3029 => 1580, 3030 => 1778, 3031 => 1780,
    3032 => 1589, 3033 => 1592, 3034 => 1781, 3035 => 1593, 3036 => 1594, 3037 => 1595, 3038 => 2205,
    3039 => 2204, 3040 => 2018, 3045 => 436, 3047 => 429, 3048 => 1031, 3049 => 1041, 3050 => 1194,
    3051 => 1202, 3052 => 1540, 3053 => 2186, 3054 => 2139, 3058 => 110, 3059 => 145, 3060 => 448,
    3061 => 775, 3062 => 1577, 3063 => 17 );

function getSkillIdPvP( $pve )
{
    return ( isset( $pvpSkillIds[ $pve ] ) ? $pvpSkillIds[ $pve ] : $pve );
}
function getSkillIdPvE( $pvp )
{
    $pveSkillIds = array_flip( $pvpSkillIds );
    return ( isset( $pveSkillIds[ $pvp ] ) ? $pveSkillIds[ $pvp ] : $pvp );
}
Now we simply call those funtions at the correct place to translate the skill ids. The following changes do exactly that:
gwwbbcode.inc.php line 1594:
$skill_id = binval($reg2[1]);
change to:
$skill_id = getSkillIdPvP( binval($reg2[1]) );
gwwbbcode.inc.php line 612
$template .= int2bin($id, $skill_bit_size);
change to:
$template .= getSkillIdPvE( int2bin($id, $skill_bit_size) );
And that's basically all there is to do to translate it. Now there is only a simple database needed that keeps track of PvE->PvP skill id relations. I'll try to get that list compiled later. It then needs to be added somewhere at the top or in a separate file (which then get's included by require 'pvpskillids.php'). I have included the complete array for the current skill balancing already in the code above. You can also move that array definition out of the file into something else (so you only have to update that file when something changes). The format of the array simply goes like this PvP skill id => PvE skill id.
I have not tested the code, but I'm quite sure that it should work like this :) poke | talk 23:47, November 28, 2009 (UTC)
Ah, thanks so much Poke. I'll pass this information on. Karate KJ for sig Jesus 23:51, 28 November 2009

Codex Arena

Will there come a section for Codex Arena builds? or you just improvise yourself ? :p Thanks!

Hi, I'm sorry to inform you that there is no section for CA and with good reason. Since the skills and builds change daily, there would be no way to keep up with each day's trend w/o many more active users. However, there are some users who have sandboxes that update CA builds every once in a while. Sandboxes are linked at the bottom of the main page, and are currently the best way we can provide CA builds. KarateCandy!Jesus 17:49, 11 December 2009
:P I haven't updated the CA page for a while, it's quite much trouble D: It died when GWW stopped updating them so I could work on the builds in school. ---ChaosClause - ChaosSoXmas 20:27, December 11, 2009 (UTC)

PvP skills (again)

>Oh, and have you considered doing anything else with the PvP skills? Or are we just giving up on that? - KJ

"Definitely not. The PvP fixes will be live tomorrow (Monday) evening UTC. Planned to do it over the weekend initially, but didn't manage to. - TOR"

So, expect that tomorrow. Also, he plans on moving our skill db to our site sometime soon. Only admins will be able to edit it and the updates can't go live until TOR syncs our db to his, but it should help us get more accurate skill updates (hopefully). KarateCandy!Jesus 03:18, 14 December 2009

Oh, and I'm still working on allowing all users to have suppress redirect privileges. I have no idea how much longer that may take. KarateCandy!Jesus 03:19, 14 December 2009
Time it for today and I require no other present from you :> ---Chaos- (talk) -- 09:11, December 14, 2009 (UTC)
thanks for the update, I was curious about this =p (someone actually asked me about it on MSN). On a related note, supressredirect isn't that hard to give to people it's literally one small line in one file. Just ask it to be added to the autoconfirmed user group privileges (so anyone who's in the "autoconfirmed" group can suppress redirects). ~ PheNaxKian talk 11:35, December 14, 2009 (UTC)
I have. Tbh, I've asked for it three times and each time I've gotten a really strange answer that didn't seem to address my request at all. I'll try again, though. KarateCandy!Jesus 16:48, 14 December 2009
They need to add:
$wgGroupPermissions['autoconfirmed']['suppressredirect'] = true;
to "LocalSettings.php". ~ PheNaxKian talk 17:04, December 14, 2009 (UTC)
Are they really moving all of the skills database to this site? That would be great. I've been quite annoyed with the broken skills lately. —  Biggles Jollyfist Big christmas bells 19:20, December 14, 2009 (UTC)
According to TOR, yes. But he didn't really give me a time on it. He just said "soon". But, like I said, he would have to sync with it before it would work. KarateCandy!Jesus 19:25, 14 December 2009
(EC)If I understood KJ right, it's just a copy of the DB. Basically we keep that up to date and every so often they sync it with the actual database. ~ PheNaxKian talk 19:26, December 14, 2009 (UTC)
Heh, wouldn't it be better if they were to copy from our database, seeing that we're the ones who (somewhat) play Guild Wars? —  Biggles Jollyfist Big christmas bells 19:29, December 14, 2009 (UTC)
If I'm understanding you right, yes that's what they'll do. TOR will just copy our database (when it's been updated) and sync it to his db. I'm assuming the reason we can't just edit our db and then it update our site has something to do with server side stuff. KarateCandy!Jesus 19:40, 14 December 2009
you totally understood me lol. Now...about the block issues. Why are we having trouble unblocking IPs? And how come I can't unblock a particular number like Thunda's last ban? —  Biggles Jollyfist Big christmas bells 20:02, December 14, 2009 (UTC)
I don't think any other admin (except you) is having that problem. Tbh, it might be a good idea for you to email wikia (click contact us on their main site). They have to reply w/in so many hours. KarateCandy!Jesus 20:25, 14 December 2009
if they do not, then something terrible will happen. perhaps the punishment is jimbo wales assraping the employee responsible. — Maf so rational. 20:58, December 14, 2009 (UTC)

Update

"OK... Good news and bad news:"

"Bad -- it appears that not all PvP skills are on the list with IDs. I started to renumber them but having an incomplete list is somewhat beside the point, right?"

"Good -- [1] -- I'm watching these pages, so I will be notified on any changes. The plan is to have this updated weekly, although I can only do one update in December (if at all), due to code freeze for the holidays. - TOR"

I told him not to worry about it until after the holidays. Sorry about this guys. I did my best. Does anyone know where we can find a complete list of the IDs? KarateCandy!Jesus 21:25, 14 December 2009
look further up the page, i linked to it, and then shortly after poke came along =). ~ PheNaxKian talk 12:14, December 15, 2009 (UTC)

Blue, I always appreciate your zeal for builds and this site, but the Main Page's talk is not the place to request this. I would recommend starting a sandbox or looking at GWGuru or something. This site's main focus is storing the best builds out there, which unfortunately in a dull, unchanging meta means that there's not much going on. Karate KJ for sig Jesus 02:21, 29 December 2009

special pages

I don't know if this is possible or not, but I'd like to see a page which lists how many votes the builds which are currently in Testing have (maybe it already exists, I don;t know, I haven't seen one. Seems like a good method of helping to push builds through the vetting process a little faster which is (at least on the pve side of things) very much needed. - AthrunFeya - 11:32, January 22, 2010 (UTC)

we don't hvae a page that tells you how many votes a build has. you can find all untested builds by the order in which they were added (from oldest at the top to newest at the bottom) here (it gives you an exact date they were added). I honestly don't see a need for a special page that shows how many votes there are on a build, we have so few builds in testing it seems pointless. ~ PheNaxKian talk 12:13, January 22, 2010 (UTC)

I am interesting in special hm builds for pve. Is there a chance to create a new section (like "generall, running, farming") where only builds for hm are posted?

fare when GW2 coems out? will they make a GW2 version of the site? totally dif. site? how will we handle the build-making frenzy? preventing vandilization? so many noobs? are there too many questions to ask? will danny and KJ get a raise?--Bluetapeboy 13:49, March 31, 2010 (UTC)

we will ban all bluetapeboys and dance the gilwor dance --Chaos? -- 14:13, March 31, 2010 (UTC)
Blue, at this point, we don't even know if there will be builds in GW2. Hell, we definitely don't know if they will use something like gwBBcode that will allow people to copy builds off of the internet, so there's no use worrying about that now.
However, if they do use a similar system, my hope is that we just split the site and half would be devoted to hosting GW2 builds and the other to maintaining GW1 builds. I don't really see the purpose in making a whole new site. Karate KJ for sig Jesus 14:29, 31 March 2010
I believe originally (i.e. before we moved to wikia)we were going to make the main page link to 2 different "portals" of the same site (so basically one website but they're so completely separate they may as well be 2). However since the move to wikia I'm inclined to say that unless someone hosts it independently, or there's such minimalist changes in the way the builds work between GW1 and GW2, that there won't be a PvX2. Also, nobody gets paid here (and why danny? he's not an admin >.>) ~ PheNaxKian talk 15:05, March 31, 2010 (UTC)
People seem to forget that pretty often (including Auron recently). And I have that same feeling about PvX2. Unless we get a private host, or builds operate in nearly the same way, it wont happen. When builds aren't savable/importable as text files, then forums tend to be the best way to discuss them. Especially in PvE primary games, which GW2 will undoubtedly be. Karate KJ for sig Jesus 15:14, 31 March 2010
just to expand on my reasoning slightly (i thought i had said this but reading what i said i've missed it out xD) the reason this would be the case is because wikia will not put the effort in when it'd only be our one wiki that would benefit from it (I believe they didn't like the fact TOR (their main coder) put in so much effort for us (and still is with maintaining the skill database)). Needs be, if someone develops something like gwBBCode again, we could get a (free) forum and just use something like that (I'd imagine most users would prefer that given how most of the user base is atm) ~ PheNaxKian talk 15:27, March 31, 2010 (UTC)
There's always a small chance I'll care enough to put something together myself, but I really wouldn't count on it. Moreover, I wouldn't expect that anything I'd put together would be in a wiki-type format. (I'd probably use Drupal with a few dedicated editors and a picky submissions system. Fuck theorycrafts.) ··· Danny So Cute 17:22, 31 March 2010 (UTC)

im expecting

a lot more builds after mesmer update. i think Panic will become OP in PvE, and Migraine will be OP in PvP. thoughts? maybe a couple archives?--Bluetapeboy 03:13, May 15, 2010 (UTC)

Where be the preview crap? Too lazy to dig around. Zyke-Sig 03:20, May 15, 2010 (UTC)

Dear PvX

Largest database of Guild Wars character builds? My dear, there are larger databases (Gamependium for example, they got around 4365 builds)--83.81.47.239 11:15, May 15, 2010 (UTC)

You can measure site size or sth, and it'll apply. Also, lol Gamependium. --Chaos? -- 11:32, May 15, 2010 (UTC)

remember we also have some 1000 builds in the "archived" section. then you can't really measure all the various builds people have in their user space... ~ PheNaxKian talk 12:02, May 15, 2010 (UTC)
And the amount of builds that get trashed. It's not the size that counts, but what you do with it! Also, it's funny to see nubs yell at you for using "cookie-cutter" PvX builds, after you've owned them. ــѕт.мıкε 12:54, May 15, 2010 (UTC)
Since no one quite said it directly: 80% of the builds on Gamependium are terrible, so your point is void. — Maf so rational. 18:22, May 15, 2010 (UTC)

RSS Feed

I don't know if its been brought up yet, but it looks broken to me. Did GW staff change something or is just me? If it is me, how do i fix it? Riff 10:21, May 25, 2010 (UTC)

ANet changed something with their site a while ago which means it does that occasionally, there's not much we can do about it. ~ PheNaxKian talk 12:13, May 25, 2010 (UTC)
It happens every now and again, sometimes it fails then the next day its working. --Frosty Frostcharge 12:18, May 25, 2010 (UTC)

display issues

Someone has informed me they've been getting display issues for a while (you can see exactly what here). They tell me it's the same in FF and IE. I was wondering if other people had been getting it =p? (it shows fine for me so I currently don't know if it's our end or there's). ~ PheNaxKian talk 18:17, May 27, 2010 (UTC)

That's a client side problem I am sure of it, it looks like that if I go on PvX on my old mobile phone. Maybe it has something to do with outdated versions of FF/IE. Anyway, it's defo client side. --Frosty Frostcharge 18:42, May 27, 2010 (UTC)

New User Guide

It needs a prominent link from the main page, preferably at the top. I'll be playing around with previews of the editcopy a bit, but suggestions would be appreciated. ToraenTheJanitorToraenSig2 03:08, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

personally i think the whole main page needs redoing anyway, so maybe it's time for a complete overhaul? ~ PheNaxKian talk 10:33, June 15, 2010 (UTC)
^Free hands to you for all I care. I only look at it like once a month anyways, if even that. --DANDY ^_^ -- 13:32, June 15, 2010 (UTC)

Sign if you think the main page is fucking ugly and should be redesigned by anyone with knowledge of how-to

  3. I agree; however, I personally do not have the time. And it would need to be simple in one regard or another. Otherwise we'd get into problems between Monobook users and Monaco users. Karate KJ for sig Jesus 20:22, 7 July 2010

Discussion of Above Topic

Actually, maybe we could make this a group project. I would have time to help design images or something like that, but I wouldn't have time to do the whole thing myself. Karate KJ for sig Jesus 20:23, 7 July 2010

Well I'm shite at wiki stuff, so meh. --Short 20:27, July 7, 2010 (UTC)
