the achivement system has hit the armory and with that comes some fun id like to see some one make a achivement sync addon for the roster this would be an amasing achivement and add that much more to the roster!

Hummm.

I just 'hit' the Armory with my browser to look at it.

There are some nice side effects, like I'm using a English browser, on a French PC - that's good : the Armory speak German to me - go figure Althought : I can read German, because I'm Dutch.....
Hello, you are still there ?
This even after being logged in with my account, which is French localized.

I think the Armory stays Beta forever. I start to understand WHY we never see the group-photo of the staff of the Armory on www.blizzard.com - they will to to easy to target afterwards ^^

I wonder who's gona manage all these localized text strings of the achivement system for this "Armory capture addon". They change nearly daily right now.
I wonder who's gona flip out of his mind because many of your golds are now visible to the entire world with out even being logged in , mind you.

[ I don't care less, Blizzard told me way back before that THEY own the stuff, the characters, your golds, and even YOUR credit cards - but often I cross people who want to hide even their hair-cut (I'm talking about the characters own here, not the guy) from the outside world – “ they can't go raiding because their newest sword doesn't pair up nicely with their gloves ”..... ]
Anyway, the one how pulls this one off should start to make Poeter’s work operational again, and then add the function that handles the “achivement system” page – now that will yield a achievement +500 record !!

Our web servers will be hitting the Armory really hard then…..
Blizzard will go nasty, blow away its firewall, and just lock every body’s character behind a password (your account password), so everybody will be happy again, and Poeter’s addon will be unemployed again.
Happy ? Why not. This will include the maker of CharacterProfiler, me he live long and forever.

Btw : anyone heard about plans from Blizzard about exporting the achivement system ?
Is this just a CharacterProfiler.lua issue because it hasn’t been programmed in yet ?
Will this (I answer myself: it will) when done, explode our CP.lua files ??

The main question : who's gona give it a go ?

i can make the veriable translations for the menu but the big issue is most of the page is hidden by show hide containers witch most people know dont show content in xml plus they use a java file ... at best i can do a list of the past 5 and any basic info thats on the page right in frount of every thing thats about it ...

Hey,

I´ve looked at the Blizzard Javascripts and so far as i know you just need to add &c=[categoryID] to the url, to get a xml file with the achievements for this category.

Example for my char (sry is german but hope it shows what i mean):

http://armory.wow-europe.com/character-achievements.xml?r=Anetheron&n=Nefuh&c=96

ok now we know how to switch pages ial look arround im still puttering with the idea.... but im still swamped with raid progression

Can our CP expert confirm that it is possible to export the achievements values to our CharacterProfiler.lua ?

The local WowRoster storage table should be defined.

Their should be there at least a command line switch to enables it, given Guild members to the possibility to stop is, because the CharacterProfiler.lua will start to grow to a size that most cheap web servers can handle anymore. The file will be to big.

CP is already over the size for cheap web hosts, at least when you have a couple of characters. Also, realize that in WOTLK talent data for one char is 20% or so larger, and bag data can grow up to a similar number once people start buying the new bags ("Gigantique" is the largest generic bag at 22 slots, and is available at vendor. Specialized bags can be even bigger). Both of these contain long description fields, which means they take significant amounts of file space.

Possibly the main number we should be looking at is the size per character (assuming UU or similar splitting it up to that level). I'm not sure how large the file is then, but multiply by 5 to get an approximate PHP memory usage of the parsed file.

i have been working away and i have i think got all the data from one character mine for the achivements now to sort and rework the array to save the data...

processing the data ive hit a snal i can switch meny tabs but then there are sub tabs like in quests yet a nother snag ial have to figure out

wow this was not wheres neer as had as i thought it was lol i have the data all the data phased for achivements.. now im working on a database structure then display ...

Thank god for gzipped uploads! I'd not want to wait that long for an uncompressed CP upload of my 15ish toons.

well i rewrote every thinga nd now have a viable addon lol i have all achivement data for my character saved in a database now i will attempt to make a display so people can see lol

Yep, that's the first one that you want to check in UniAdmin, and sync to all UniUpLoader user by force.

But God gave us also fibre optics and SDSL

But keep in mind that the upload time won't break things, weak, cheap servers (less memmory), will.

and i bring you the first conceviable achivements addon have a look ... http://ulminia.no-ip.org/roster/index.p ... nts&a=c:62

it looks bad but its working

Great work, can you Post the deDe file for translation?

WUHAAAAA I saw your Companions addon just i want to ask if i can use it for my own Guild Roster and translate it into german.

it woult be very nice.
