Re: BF2 Medal Progress Indicatornow finished

Hi,

Thankyou all for your feedback regarding
www.ultimategroover.com

I have made the following mods today.

1. Fixed issue where code was not seeing first award (ie Basic Engineer). All stats were missing one award.

2. Expert first aid criteria changed from revive to heal

3. Fixed Combat Action Medal progress not updating

4. Expert Transport : Fixed road kills and driver points

5. You can now enter bf2 tags > 15 characters

6. Corrected spelling

7. Border around medals you have - easier to read.

I'll do some more updates over the weekend.

Cheers
Duke

Re: BF2 Medal Progress Indicatornow finished

Pretty cool!

I would recommend separating them; instead of having everything on one page, having something such as:

[BASIC BADGES]
[VETERAN BADGES]
[EXPERT BADGES]
[RIBBONS]
[MEDALS]

And if you fix it where all Badge colors are correct (e.g. Basic = Bronze, Veteran = Silver & Expert = Gold) it'll be much easier to read. Perhaps even going so far to remove the background images on the COMPLETED buttons. But other than these, nice job

All of this has now been done :-)

Good suggestions - thanks mate.

There are a few bugs but I like it, I was able to find out that I was only a few hours form my Valorious Unit ribbon by it. :)

Re: BF2 Medal Progress Indicatornow finished

Hmm...am i doing something wrong or?

It works just fine when i type in my name and get up the ribbons, but when i change to anything else (badges, medals) i get the stats for the 45th Tigers and not my personal stats...

Re: BF2 Medal Progress Indicatornow finished

A really nice Job, It seems to kick me to your clan stats page if I use the drop down menu to select medals? I hope this is useful feedback.

Yep. Neat tool from what I can see for the ribbons, but I'm running in to the same issues.

Re: BF2 Medal Progress Indicatornow finished

Very nicely done. The only thing I found is that the Far East and Middle East service ribbons are showing up under medals instead of ribbons. But that's a hell of a job you did!

Hi, the script really ought not be released.

There is a lot more to it then a just a block or module.

It has a massive table structure to which it caches stats and awards, and only updates them on a predefined schedule. This is absolutley essential or else the code would hurt the bf2 stats servers.

Additionally, the progress bars etc are created on the fly with PHP image manipulation so the script needs write access to several directories.

Thirdly it has a keep alive script which does all the uploading work. This means that you guys dont take a delay hit when it is retrieiving stats etc. So you need more then one server to keep it running.

Additionally, this code is levereaged from the BF2 Server Usage tracker on the right hand side of my site. That is a pretty cool peace of work. It searches every 6 minutes to see which of our members are in game and what server they are on. If it finds one of them online it flags them for a stats update in one hours time. That way the Stats server only get hit if a member is playing bf2.

So don't think I'm selfish, just that there is a high entry level for back end requirements to run something like this.

Cheers
Duke
