I realized at the point we're at its essential that we have better documentation on the site on the custom stuff as well as non custom stuff, to make it easier to know what is available in terms of artifacts, pets, etc.

So for the next few weeks or however long it takes, I will be working on this system. Once complete, it will actually make it faster for staff to script, as I will make it so it generates the scripts for basic items like artifacts and pets. This will also ensure that documentation is consistent with the actual scripts.

Once done, I will need to populate the system, so this won't be an easy task, but once done, will be worth it.

Been working on this for past few days now. Theres still a lot left to do and I did not realize how big this was, but I hope to finish it by the end of next week, maybe before. Then I still have to populate it which may take a while but that part is not so bad.

Basically this system will replace the forum "information center" as I find that style of documentation kind of cluttered and hard to keep up to date.

Some good progress today. The arty part is pretty much done, need to start populating it to see if I missed any features. So far its good, it even generates code so when adding custom artys i just add it there first then it creates the shard code. Heres a sample. (still needs some work as you can see:P)

Code: Select all

The system can now be found here:

http://www.uovalor.com/contentdb/

I also changed the home page links to reflect to that.

The system still needs to be populated with data so theres not much to see yet, but there is some content already.

Very very nice. I can see this being very useful.

Ya. I'll make you an admin account.


Once we populate everything I will retire the AoV Information Centre forum. What I'll probably do is just keep it as a dev info forum. So for those interested we'll post more in depth stuff/code on various systems, but the true accurate source of info will be the cms. Or I might just remove it completely.

That is looking good so far. Good job.

I'm starting to populate the peerless artys.

Keep in mind the current up to date source of info is still AoV information center. Some stuff that will be added to content DB may not be obtainable, or is in a different category. (ex: there is no level 1 2 and 3 peerless artys at the moment)
