Revision as of 05:24, 18 December 2023

General/Ongoing

  1. Help clear the Maintenance Reports for unused/broken/wanted items!
  2. Check out and verify Did you know?#Unverified claims
  3. Look for pages that need help and report them here (e.g. unreadable color scheme, missing info)

Specific

Site interface

  1. Read through the site interface strings and see if anything could be changed to benefit the site.

File upload/editing

  1. Upload pictures of all town creature dwellings and town unique buildings. (Page: e.g. Template: Tower creature dwellings)
    • Fortress creature dwellings currently exist (with the exception of the Wyvern Nest)
  2. The pics for Template:Cove unique buildings are a different size from all the other towns' unique buildings. Edit them to match.
  3. The remaining wanted pages are actually missing map files.
    • What is the best way to get map files? Open up the editor and screenshot/crop? Find them somewhere online? --Legate (talk) 20:54, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
    • I don't know how Phasma was doing it but I just make screenshots in the map editor and then realign them all after. When I did that last big one I had to use cheat engine to change the zoom so that I could do it with fewer screenshots. And yes it's entirely possible there's an easier way. Possibly make use of heroesmaps.org/heroes3mapscan. –imahero 21:22, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
    • I do just that: turn off all animations in map editor, take multiple screenshots, delete the unnecessary areas, align them in GIMP, save an original copy, and finally create a small copy for uploading here. I'm doing them over time since they take a while, and I've done all the small and medium maps so far. I'll do some more before the year ends too :) → Phasma 12:47, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
  4. The high-level map pictures for each campaign scenario (on the screen where you select the level bonus before the cinematic plays).
  5. Do we have the actual maps of each of the campaign levels too? Getting close to a working Campaign Scenario template and these are showing up blank. --Legate (talk) 04:14, 18 December 2023 (UTC)
    • We only have a handful of the regular ones left, so we can move on to that next I suppose. –imahero 05:01, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

Page Creation/Updating

  1. Design a new main page. Save it on [[your user page/main page]] so we can see it. Candidates:
  2. Breath Attack could use a diagram of how it works (specifically when attacking straight up or down)
    • I found this, but I have no idea the accuracy or completeness. --Legate (talk) 03:43, 8 December 2023 (UTC)
  3. Obstacle Penalty could use a diagram or explanation of how it works. Is it everything inside the ring wall? Does obstacle penalty disappear when the wall goes down?
  4. Map Editor could use a bunch more info or link to a map editor tutorial.
  5. Most HotA campaign pages are mostly empty:
  6. For Template:Scenario: Add something to show what carries over to the next level of the campaign.
  7. I have been having lots of trouble getting the various bonuses to show up in a single, centered line in the bonus area of Template:Scenario. Help!
    • Could it be a caching issue? Maybe just set it to what you think it should be and let it sit for awhile. –imahero 22:10, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
    • Can you make a demo using photoshop (or paint.net, or gimp.org) and post it so I can see what your desired result would look like? –imahero 03:06, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
    • I'll get around to making a mockup, but basically it is the Little Timmy Example on Template:ScenarioInfo if all the bonuses were centered in their cell. --Legate (talk) 05:04, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
  8. For Category:Bonus templates
    1. Check if these items can be displayed using these templates:
      • Heroes from a certain scenario (e.g. Steadwick's Fall)
        • Maybe something like this? Start with heroes from Groundbreaking --Legate (talk) 18:33, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
      • Certain level of Mage Guild: {{BonusB|Dungeon|Mage Guild level 2}}
      • Multiple different resources as a single bonus (e.g. Duke Alarice): {{BonusR|Secondary|6}}
        • I think if we just got 1 "(leather)" pic with all 4 secondary resources, this would cover all cases (as you get 3-10 of everything, but not 2 sulfur, 8 gems) --Legate (talk) 21:02, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
        • Switched to the newly uploaded pics. --Legate (talk) 05:24, 18 December 2023 (UTC)
      • Multiple different primary stats as a single bonus (e.g. The World Within)
        • I think it we just got 1 Atk/Def image and 1 Know/Pwr image, this would cover all cases.

Community Requests

  1. Write tips on campaign scenario pages (212.112.111.20)
    • Sometimes there are tips on the main campaign pages under User Commentary. (e.g. Dragon's Blood)
