If someone has code experience..

And wants to take a crack at creating a parser to port the Diku wiki maps across to the main wiki in a format that it doesn't hate, I would recommend emailing the staff. I've queued up this main world map and linked it.

If someone wants to take a crack at it and give it a shot they can get in touch with the staff however, there would be minimal supervision. It doesn't need to be pretty, just functional. Pretty is a plus.

They would need to take ownership of the project and see it through to completion. It will take significant time, energy and effort. It would also be a thankless job- you wouldn't be getting any special treatment based on the work being done. Contrary to popular belief volunteers may be respected for their efforts, but generally don't reap any rewards for making a voluntary contribution.

Otherwise I will probably get back on top of this myself some time in the distant future, time permitting.

Kstatida July 13, 2017 10:46AM

Seriously impressive ascii work (n/t)

It would be easier to port that to Diku wiki... IMHO...

laearrist July 13, 2017 03:35PM

You're not wrong.

istirith July 13, 2017 06:50PM

Eh. nah I'll pass :D

wishore July 13, 2017 09:19AM

Istirith was querying people who had the know how to get it done. Inside is an accurate depiction of you.

Stevers July 13, 2017 09:27AM

Oh I thought he was asking for a coder to do it, my bad (n/t)

wishore July 13, 2017 09:28AM

Saying "oh I thought X" as if you had a contrary belief doesn't work when X is exactly what I posted. Regardless, my point still stands. n/t

Stevers July 13, 2017 09:32AM

No Stevers I am a Firefighter (n/t)

wishore July 13, 2017 09:35AM

Both wikis suffer from lack of elbow grease, not censorship. (n/t)

Matrik July 13, 2017 09:21AM

Matrik we added things to the qhcf wiki, people removed them, its not a lack of will its a matter of censorship (n/t)

wishore July 13, 2017 09:28AM

Whatever you say boss. (n/t)

Matrik July 13, 2017 09:29AM

Also I know for a fact what was on the original wiki, and qhat is on the qhcf one, also someone at qhcf likely has the original somewhere (n/t)

wishore July 13, 2017 09:31AM

Pretty much.

istirith July 13, 2017 09:23AM

I wanted it to look similar to ADOM

istirith July 13, 2017 08:41AM

Yup, looks like the big secret is out. Now you have nothing to post tomorrow. n/t

Stevers July 13, 2017 08:32AM

looking for the best format :D (n/t)

wishore July 13, 2017 08:35AM

Look who the cat dragged back in.

Stevers July 13, 2017 08:30AM

No. Raltevio did it.

Matrik July 13, 2017 08:19AM

,Created by Raltevio for Carrion Fields LLC., based on prior work by Amaranthe and Robert Dunn.,

Stevers July 13, 2017 08:02AM

Thanks stevers I remember the Amaranthe original one, but Matrik did help a tiny bit, so you know, stfu? in this particular instance. (n/t)

wishore July 13, 2017 08:58AM

I don't want to take any credit from isti.

Matrik July 13, 2017 09:12AM

I'm not going to stfu in any particular instance. Even when I'm banned, I still post. How cool is that? You won't be able to say the same when you're perma-banned from CF. n/t

Stevers July 13, 2017 09:03AM

will I have anything to say though? (n/t)
