Revision as of 22:10, 15 December 2023
General/Ongoing
- Help clear the Maintenance Reports for unused/broken/wanted items!
- Check out and verify Did you know?#Unverified claims
- Look for pages that need help and report them here (e.g. unreadable color scheme, missing info)
Specific
Site interface
- Read through the site interface strings and see if anything could be changed to benefit the site.
File upload/editing
- 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)
- The pics for Template:Cove unique buildings are a different size from all the other towns' unique buildings. Edit them to match.
- Upload missing cursor pictures (Page: Cursors)
- 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 :) 12:47, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
- The high-level map pictures for each campaign scenario (on the screen where you select the level bonus before the cinematic plays).
Page Creation/Updating
- Design a new main page. Save it on [[your user page/main page]] so we can see it. Candidates:
- Breath Attack could use a diagram of how it works (specifically when attacking straight up or down)
- Obstacle Penalty could use a diagram on how it works. Is it everything inside the ring wall? Does obstacle penalty disappear when the wall goes down?
- Map Editor could use a bunch more info.
- Most HotA campaign pages need work:
- For Template:Scenario: Add something to show what carries over to the next level of the campaign.
- Combine Template:Scenario and Template:ScenarioInfo? I don't think having 2 adds value.
- Keep Template:Scenario as all the scenario pages call it. --Legate (talk) 21:02, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
- 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)
- For Category:Bonus templates
- Check if these items can be displayed using these templates:
First Aid Tent (i.e. war machines): {{BonusCr|Ballista}}- Prayer spell scroll (i.e. specific spells on scrolls) (e.g. Guardian Angels)
- Heroes from a certain scenario (e.g. Steadwick's Fall)
- Random Hero (e.g. Borderlands)
Creatures appearing at a certain location (e.g.Steadwick's Liberation): {{BonusCr|Wyvern Monarch|3|loc=Castle (49, 85, 0)}}Certain level of Mage Guild: {{BonusB|Dungeon|Mage Guild level 2}}- NOTE: Needs works: See Template talk:BonusB
- Multiple different resources as a single bonus (e.g. Duke Alarice)
- 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.
- Check if these items can be displayed using these templates:
Community Requests
- 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)
Notes
- Use <li value="your_number_here"></li> to restart a numeric list if there are breaks in between the numbers (e.g. comments).
- Use "#*" to add a comment to an item without breaking the numbering.
- For discussion surrounding current changes, use Changelog Chat.
