Submissions for LBA File Information

[xesf]

Maybe he can make a beta release and improve it later, that way we can still use it with some limitations...

[Zink]

I'm sorry I didn't do anything for such a long time. It could be put online as it is a t the current state, but I wanted to convert it to use a database insted of the text files. There's hope that I will find some time to do it within a month or so....

[xesf]

Any news about converting the system to work with database?

[ChaosFish]

From what I see it looks like Zink's site is working great already.

Look like there's still missing the "Submit new information" page mainly, but as far as I can tell the system looks quite functional.

[xesf]

Where can I see it?

[ChaosFish]

I sent you a pm (since I don't think Zink would mind)

[xesf]

Yeah... he won't mind, I know . Thanks!!

The site looks great, really nice and easy to work with. Do you know if it's already working with databases or still with files?!

[xesf]

Nevermind, I already saw that he's working with DB now . So when its the lauching day? What is missing there?

[ChaosFish]

That is for Zink to answer I guess. And yeah, it looks really great! No fan community has ever had anything like this.

Now that I think of it, it probably should be really easy to add file information for fan projects like LBA Prequel. Maybe it can have its own page (not index.php). Correct me if I'm wrong anyway

[xesf]

Yes we can use the same engine for the other projects as well, it could be a great help indeed. And isn't necessary to have different pages, we just copy the entire engine to use another database in another folder. That way we can have the game and the projects separately.

[ChaosFish]

Sounds like a good plan!

[xesf]

Indeed, it will help us a lot . I already send an e-mail to Zink asking about the site state and also when he think releasing it.

[Zink]

Sorry, I've not been here for some time...

Yes, I am working on it more or less constantly, and almost everything is done. There are still some things, that absolutely must be done before the release:
- submission forms and system (started doing it yesterday)
- editor for HQR entries (forgot to convert it from text file version to database)
- account system for admins and editors.

I estimate the time to release for about two months.

Yes, it will not be hard to add more game versions to the engine. With copying the engine, there is one thing, that the tables in the database will have to be created manually (but I may write an install script for that, if it's necessary).

[xesf]

You don't need to make an installation file, just make a TXT file with the MySQL dump (only structure).

Oh btw, I notice there isn't a combobox to choose the text color , we need to know all the colors names to type.

[Zink]

You mean: in the extension edit page? You can always type in the hex code. You couldn't do that if it was a combo, that's why I made it so.

[xesf]

Ah, I didn't know that, because I saw a color name like "lightcoral" (seams red) and didn't know what kind of colors like that were possible. So, you don't need to change anything . Colors in Hex values its perfect.

[Zink]

All colours supported by html standard are possible. Here is the list: http://www.htmlgoodies.com/tutorials...le.php/3478961

I didn't make any name-to-code conversion, the engine just puts the string you type in as the colour. You can do the same in all html pages, e.g. type "black" instead of #000000.

[morshem]

Is this project still alive? I was bored and extracted the voice files from LBA 2, and submitted information on the site. But I wasn't sure it will actually get anywhere, so I post it here too .

[xesf]

It is, but you have to build the info in a particular format so it can be submitted in the new website.

Format is here: http://lba.fishos.cc/fileinfo/editors/help.php?id=1
New website here: http://lba.fishos.cc/fileinfo/

Edit: just notice you have submitted in the website. I already format this information and import in the website.
Take a look: http://lba.fishos.cc/fileinfo/index....=vox21&ww=1663

[morshem]

Oh, sorry .
I'll try doing it in this format if I do this for other files.

There are a few empty entries there too, which I didn't know I should write about. The empty entries are 9, 20, 41-44 and 53-285.

[xesf]

Don't do it, I already made it and import in to the website. Check here http://lba.fishos.cc/fileinfo/index....=vox21&ww=1680
