Website for Global Rankings

[phaeton_pl]

Fixed. "Bot mods" can delete records. Glitchers have their own ranking, the official one.

[Connavar]

^ Haha.

Finally finished a 3d simulator, so now I have some time to spend on the site.
I'll do the event section then.

[shapealot]

i didnt realize we could remove times thanx pheaton

[Connavar]

I got bored so I added Russian language support but I don't know all the terms
- if anyone speaks Russian, maybe he can help me filling them?
Спасибо (Thanks).

Same for japanese would be nice too!

[phaeton_pl]

Я знаю русский язык, но Google Translate лучше знает.


Seriously, i find that tool really useful. I'm using it to translate some french comments on YT

Connavar I do know russian language a bit, how can i help?

[Connavar]

Haha ok, I also know a bit, well if you can just check all the terms and tell me
where the problems are. I just added Japanese too, but there I barely know
anything at all, so it's full of mistakes.

I was wondering; would it be possible to let players upload more then one time for a single track, but 1 per team?? And to be able to search by team used as well as track/speed etc?

My thinking came about because Ive recently really got into using pirahna, and would like to upload a few times. However many are not as fast as my icaras times. It would be awesome to be able to upload these times as well, and then filter the leaderboard by pirahna times only to see whos a faster fish than me

[Connavar]

There is already a solution but it could pollute the leaderboards quite a bit...
adding those times as another account name which doesn't exist yet.

So a convention is required to easily filter those times out when not wanted,
like using:

*Piranha* osama_bin_haydn

with the * (must not be a valid PSN name)

or something like:

osama_bin_haydn/Piranha

(I think the / is not accepted for PSN usernames right?)

The problem is ... how many people are going to add such times?
If you're the only one, it's not really worth making the changes.

[Woopzilla]

I have one request:

When sorting times by track the HD ones are in order of how they appear in the leaderboards. The Fury tracks are ordered differently though, would it be possible to re-arrange them to: TJ, TJ R, Amph, Amph R, MH, MH R, TDR, TDR R?

It's just a minor thing that would make cross-checking times a little faster. I compare them as I go down the list on the site while flicking through the ingame leaderboards.

Thank you for possibly considering it. ^^

[Connavar]

I will add an option to have:
1) current order
2) wipeout hd order
3) alternating order: vineta fwd/vineta rev/anulpha fwd/anulpha rev/...

[Woopzilla]

Cool, thanks a lot!

[OBH]

You make a good point Connavar. Cheers for the reply

Thinking about OBH's suggestion - I don't know if many people would use it or not, but one of the best aspects of your site, Connavar, is that it adds so much longevity to the game by giving us features the standard tables don't, as well as reliability and accuracy. Imagine how much more time we could all play the game if there was a separate table for every ship. With WipEout's future uncertain, I think a lot of us will be squeezing as much enjoyment as possible out of the game, and this could really help us to do that. Also, some people like Hellfire are really loyal to one team and for them to be at the top of a record table and compete on a level playing field in that sense could be really cool. I would definitely compete with Hellfire's Goteki times if it were possible, as I love it too. I wouldn't include the separate times in the overall rankings though as I think that would be too confusing.

If it's a lot of effort then maybe it's not worthwhile, but perhaps something to consider for the future.

[OBH]

i like your thinking

[Connavar]

Yeah, also those speed lap challenges could be added to the website...
Let me just think of the best way to implement this.

The bot time for TDR(R) Venom needs to be adjusted, as it's only on 30.5 at the moment. I uploaded a vid to youtube of 30.07:

There are some lines that could be cleaned up and maybe some other things I'm not taking account of at all that could be used, but with the method I used, I think a time of 29.8 or so is possible...

[leungbok]

done ! Bot is now at 29.70 !

[shapealot]

bot sorted amp so you can add youre time now. i set it 29.70 coz you will no doubt beat it soon enough, good work mate nice vid
