Suggestion

Hey Trang Oul,

May I suggest that before you add a D2R RW to a new attribute page that you change existing "yes" for "Ladder" to "yes (LoD only)" until we have found a better solution if it hasn't been done yet? Otherwise we'll have both "yes (D2R only" and plain "yes" on a page which is even more confusing, as can be seen on the "cannot be frozen" page before I changed it. Thanks!

Sure. I'm thinking about using a template (multiple or, better, one parametrized) for all those "Yes (LoD only)" and so on ladder/availability descriptions. Then we'll be able to change all pages at once, if we decide to change those labels. Trang Oul (talk) 09:08, 20 June 2024 (EDT)

individual rune pages

Hi again!

I won't be using the individual rune pages (like Eld Rune or Ko Rune at all, so don'T care about the format. So would you prefer seperate columns for LoD and D2R patches / ladder or integrated into one column for patch / ladder? Just let me know that we don'T do any work twice, thanks.

I'd go for atomic (separate) data. Sortable and more readable. Trang Oul (talk) 10:26, 20 June 2024 (EDT)

Patches

Hello again,

me once more. I just noticed that Blizzard use a 2.x.y format for their patches for d2r (current is 2.7.3 e.g.) and not 1.ab like they used to with d2 and lod. So all my 2.00 2.40 and 2.60 edits were wrong and should've been 2.6 or 2.6.0 instead. I don't think I'm going to change it. But just wanted to let you know that I screwed up in this regard. :( Cheers, Naturelover (talk) 07:28, 22 June 2024 (EDT)

Hi Naturelover,

In my edits I've used x.y format (i.e. only major and minor, without patch (as defined here)). This is the format used in news (examples: 2.4, [1]), and also used by the community, since only the "big" patches introduced new features. But maybe we should be more detailed here? On the other hand, unlike LoD, I don't think it is even possible to install older D2R patches, so that information is purely historical.
PS. Shall I answer you here or on your page? :) Trang Oul (talk) 02:00, 25 June 2024 (EDT)

Hello TO,

answering here is fine.

I'll leave it to you how we/you record the patch number. As you said, it's purely historical anyway. :)

PS: What's the difference between
and
 ?

Fortunately there are few pages with patch numbers, so it's not a big deal.

Speaking of br tags, it's a long story, but I prefer to close the tags (i.e. <br/>) instead of leaving them open. After all, explicit is better than implicit. Trang Oul (talk) 05:50, 26 June 2024 (EDT)

Item Type page

Hello TO,

just to let you know that the png at the beginning of the page doesn't display for me. I'm using Firefox on a Win 11 Pro system, all patched.

Second thing: You have created a group of Spears and Polearms?! What is that grouping based on? The game clearly differentiates between those two (barb has a mastery for each one, amazons can rock spears and javs, but not polearms) - so why group them together? Based on what? ANd why D2R only?

Image: same here. If you open the image page (https://www.theamazonbasin.com/wiki/index.php/File:Item_Types_weap_armo.png), you'll see it broken. The same if you open one of the thumbnails, say, https://www.theamazonbasin.com/wiki/thumb.php?f=Item_Types_weap_armo.png&width=1024 . It seems the thumbnail generating script is broken. But you can open the "Original file": https://www.theamazonbasin.com/wiki/images/a/a1/Item_Types_weap_armo.png

Spears and Polearms: D2R data files, namely itemtypes.txt. This is a grouping item type, with no items directly using this type, like Swords and Knives. And D2R only simply because it didn't exist in LoD. Trang Oul (talk) 04:45, 1 July 2024 (EDT)
