== Dialects == | |||
I strongly suggest rather than using "Armor" or "Armour", you use "Mechanaught <nowiki>[parts]</nowiki>". It sounds better and is more distinct. [[User:69.182.118.139|69.182.118.139]] 00:00, 8 January 2008 (CET) | |||
:it's pronounced the same way, "armor" is the american spelling. You have to keep in mind that Exteel is an international game.<br>~[[User:Ledviper|<font color="Black">'''Led'''</font>]]<nowiki> | </nowiki>[mailto:Ledviper@gmail.com <span></span>] 00:44, 8 January 2008 (CET) | |||
::Yeah but is the word "armo(u)r" ever used in Exteel? :P They're refered to as Mechanaught parts. [[User:69.182.118.139|69.182.118.139]] 03:51, 8 January 2008 (CET) | |||

== New content == | |||
Added to the db. [http://exteel.no-ip.org/compare.php?type=bs&name=Sonic+Boomer&name2=Laser+Wing Boosters], for example. Perhaps I should register here :P [[User:69.182.118.139|69.182.118.139]] 06:02, 8 January 2008 (CET) | |||

::Yeah, I had to register; my IP is dynamic so it would have changed eventually. Thanks for renaming to Mechanaught as well. I'm angry they didn't add any new content though :( [[User:MK|MK]] 02:25, 9 January 2008 (CET) | |||

::::Cool. I made the weapon stats calculate round(stat/72*100), so it should be easier to add new weapons when I add them to my DB. [[User:MK|MK]] 04:24, 10 January 2008 (CET) | |||
::I was just wondering if anyone desired for this site to be here. Like any site, without support, it could fail. I want this site to work out because I play Exteel. If those that are capable of updating this site could please do so, I know that there are many people that would be greatly appreciative. Please, all that can help out, update this site so that people will keep coming here for trusted information. Thank you. 11 March 2008 | |||
:::I'm cleaning up the site (grammar...) and I'll probably add in new content every so often....just don't go AWOL on me o.O. | |||

==Site rearrangement== | |||
Well, I'm going to be making some major changes to the organization of the pages on the site. Rather than having separate pages for each of the cores, boosters, weapons, etc., I'm going to start merging them to single pages in a table format. This should help make it easier to compare their relative strengths and weaknesses. I will start with the [[:Category:Shield]] page since it's the smallest, and maybe one of the weapon pages tomorrow. If there are no complaints, I will do the rest of it over the coming weekend. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] 05:46, 19 June 2008 (CEST) | |||
== Converting from Graph to Percentage == | |||
To get the percentages for the information presented in graph form you need a simple image editor like MSPaint. | |||
#Go in-game and make sure "Screen Shot File Format" is set to BMP, this is changed in: Options --> Graphics Setup | |||
#Take a screenshot of the Part-Info Screen. | |||
#Open the screenshot in MSPaint, or something similar, though Photoshop is overkill. | |||
#Count the length of the light blue bar in pixels, easiest to use the Rectangular Select tool with MSPaint. | |||
#Devide the length of the bar by 72 then multiply that number by 100, that is the percentage that is used on Weapon and Skill pages. | |||
==Projects== | |||
This is a list of the things that need to be done to make this Wiki more presentable and complete. | |||
=== Ongoing: Image replacement === | |||
* Higher res/quality images are always welcome, replace them if you think you have better. | |||
=== Ongoing: Weapon Pages === | |||
*Each weapon page will follow [[:Template:Weapon|this]] template, each full bar is 72 pixels, every 18 Pixels is 25% | |||
**To find out percentages simple take the number of pixels divide it by 72 and multiply that answer by 100, '''(<i>x</i>/72) X 100'''. | |||
*Weapon Pages must have the description field added, See [[Annihilator-C]]. | |||
=== Ongoing: Mechanaught Pages === | |||
*Mechanaught pages must be created using the [[:Template:Mechanaughts|Mechanaught Template]]. | |||
** The mechanaught pages will also need the description field added, See [[Mekhi]]. | |||
=== Ongoing: Booster pages === | |||
* Booster pages must be created using the [[:Template:Booster|Booster Template]] | |||
**The booster pages will also need the description field added, See [[Booster]]. | |||
* Booster Images must be cropped. | |||
== | === Ongoing: Formatting Guide === | ||
* The [<nowiki/>[:ExteelWiki:Formatting|Formatting Guide]] can be updated to show new changes in out styles. | |||
* It is still not complete either. | |||
=== '''Summary''' === | |||
: | *The Booster pages must be updated with [[:Template:Booster|this]] template. | ||
*Booster images must either be cropped or replaced to show only the booster. | |||
*Formatting Guide must be updated. | |||
*Weapon pages need the description field added. | |||
*Mechanaught pages need the description field added. | |||
