More Dialogue

Sorry, I fell a little behind after finishing up that group this morning. You know which dialogues I should do now? Paladin117>>iff bored; 23:45, February 3, 2014 (UTC)

I probably should've asked first, but should I have Broken Steel loaded at the same time as the base game? Since the add-on adds dialogue to existing characters, such as Three Dog. Paladin117>>iff bored; 00:40, February 4, 2014 (UTC)
Vanilla FNV should be all done now, assuming I didn't miss any. I aimed to do all the unique characters, even if they didn't have proper names (like the Freeside criers, for example). I am also back to stripping out the unused characters, as I decided to automate adding the few lines of formatting text to the files and just added a grep-style filter to pick out the matching dialogues. Will the next step in the process be the FNV DLCs? --FFIX (talk) 00:15, February 4, 2014 (UTC)

I see all these dialogue files on the RC, and I'm wondering, "Are they meant to be readable?" Is there some formatting conversion necessary? --Skire (talk) 00:44, February 4, 2014 (UTC)

That's honestly amazing. So Theo's back with us? --Skire (talk) 00:53, February 4, 2014 (UTC)

Hey, I was wondering if you could hop in chat for a minute. - Greets Peace'n Hugs (talk) (blog) 14:06, February 4, 2014 (UTC)

Bot run

  • Thanks Js! But you guys did a great job too: making all those pages in like 3 days - Bravo! Summary: Damn, we're good! :)
  • FNV: Mostly done. Couple of pages got stuck, so I'll have to give them some time to come back to normal.
    • DLC's are on my schedule.
    • VHDNCREngineerTemplate.txt and VFortBennyCrucified.txt doesn't have any unique topics, so you could delete them both.
    • I haven't seen any pages for creatures: Lily, Marcus, EDE, e.t.c. Hey, they want to speak too!
  • FO3: Can't answer right now. All I can see is that they are different. I'll take a look and come back with details. Just in case: do not create new FO3 pages for now. There might be a need to adjust my bot and/or page format.

--Теодорико (talk) 14:49, February 4, 2014 (UTC)

OK, I believe the FNV creatures are all done. Is there anything else needing done for FNV? Just looking through the GECK, I didn't see any other categories of talkers with dialogue. If not, I will just wait for the go-ahead to do FO3 before uploading any more dialogues. --FFIX (talk) 17:47, February 4, 2014 (UTC)

.45 Auto pistol images

Hey, I was just working on the .45 Auto pistol gallery, when I noticed the name of the pictures contradicts the caption when it comes down to the iron sights. Also the main article picture has according to the file name the unplayable mod installed... Could you verify either the filename or the caption is correct? - Greets Peace'n Hugs (talk) (blog) 01:03, February 5, 2014 (UTC)

FO3 Dialogues.

OK, we are officially screwed. "GetIsID == 1" means nothing at all. I need to find another way to filter generic topics. I have an idea, but don't get your hopes up. If everything fails, we'll have to fallback to publishing unfiltered files. --Теодорико (talk) 14:21, February 5, 2014 (UTC)

There's nothing in exported files that we can use. It just doesn't exist. I'll try to hook them with low-level dumps to get to actual conditions used by the game. But I can't promise anything, as usual. ;) --Теодорико (talk) 14:32, February 5, 2014 (UTC)

Hey Jspoel, sorry to bother you. I'm sure you're aware of the weird expression errors going around, but I think I may have found a weirder glitch. I seem to have a special rights interface when going into blogs... What's even odder is that you're WALL-E avi is next to the comment box. I checked to make sure I don't have any rights by trying to delete my comment, gives me a permission error... so, no big deal. Just letting you know. --MountHail (talk) 15:03, February 5, 2014 (UTC)

Feature box

I'm aware of the problem. It has to do with allowing enough room for images. When I wrote that I played with a few ways to resize the display based on the image height, but none of the easy ways worked the way I wanted them to. I'll have to look at the imagesize extension and try re-doing them using that. Remind me when I get back. The Gunny  UserGunny chevrons 20:43, February 5, 2014 (UTC)

Ryan had already asked him to change the 3 inappropriate user names. I was going to allow him that 1 week during his block here to get that done.

If you have any particular place you would like me to start so I don't collide with others, let me know. If this has already been started, do you think you could show me an example of a page? I'm not good at templates or anything and the chart on Theo's page looked pretty complicated at first glance.

The dialogue file is really, really long and there doesn't seem to be any sort of way I can organized this. Am I overlooking something? - Chris With no background 23:58, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

Hi! I'm doing some progress and decided to give you some heads up on what's going on: I've managed do get to low-level conditions and everything looks pretty much doable, but it's a trainload of work ahead of me, so don't expect any actions in the next few days.

Wikipedia company naming and formatting

I was recently undertaking the task of altering the pre-War company articles and making them in line with Wikipedia's formatting. For example, "incorporated" or "inc" doesn't appear in page titles, only in the page itself, and it is written as "Google Inc." But I've now became stuck on Chryslus. The page now has a title which isn't correct due to the confusion over the naming. Basically, in FO2, it's called Chryslus Motors, but it's referred to as Chryslus Corporation in FO3 and since, and since dev opinions change, Corporation must be the true name.

But I can't find a clear policy on Wikipedia's rules on it, and Wikipedia's car manufacturer pages contradict each other. For example, Ford has its full name as the page title (Ford Motor Company), whilst others such as Porsche, Ferrari, and Toyota don't, so it's kind of unclear. Also, I can't figure out whether "Corporation" should appear in articles, since Wikipedia has some pages (e.g. Sony) where Corporation doesn't appear in the title.

I try to do that once in a while, and that's all it would fix. What do you think? Toci US Air Force Into the wild blue yonder... 01:32, February 8, 2014 (UTC)
By "file:" I meant that's what would be fixed. But I understand. Those kind of mistakes only happen when I'm running find + replace or reverting. The basic fix is spot on every time. I'll set it up tomorrow. Toci US Air Force Into the wild blue yonder... 01:48, February 8, 2014 (UTC)

Concept art

I got them all from here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/47857688@N08/sets/72157629320774861/

Nearly all the images from there are uploaded to the wiki I think, but navigating the categories to find them is pretty much a maze, and it's hard to find the right image since they don't have the same names as the filenames on the Flickr. I managed to find some of them though on the wiki.

The images can't be saved from the Flickr either for some reason, since right-clicking on it doesn't come up with the usual options. User OfficialLolGuy  OfficialLolGuy  Talk  Blog  13:16, February 8, 2014 (UTC)

On another note, I recall that message you sent about the Fallout unmarked quests category a while ago. Turns out there were a bunch of side quests in the Navbox FO1 quests that were formatted as unmarked quests, so that's why I added a bunch of side quests to the wrong category.

  • You know, this bot is going to be ranked #8 in top 10 of worst programs I ever wrote. Nothing comes my way, and I mean NOTHING. For example: last week I dumped old low-level parser and wrote a new one, just because FNVDump is unable to dump dialogues from the Broken Steel.

Chart problem

No dice on the chart problem so far. This issue, as Wikia said, seems to be a change in the way Chrome displays empty table rows. They collapse them. The charts with the problem all seem to be effected by this, since the browser seems to think those rows are empty (they actually have a div in them with some border added, but no actual content inside the div). Wikia's proposed solution was to add some content to the empty row. I've played with a possible fix I found at wikipedia, which did not work, and also tried to add some hidden (transparent character) content to the empty divs, which also did not work. I'm out of ideas. I would ask Theo to help, but he seems awful busy right now. I can try to run this by Wikia again, but I'm not real sure if there's a way to solve the problem, short of Chrome changing the way they display those empty rows. The Gunny  UserGunny chevrons 00:45, February 26, 2014 (UTC)

I think I got it. Take a look at Ring-a-Ding-Ding!#Quick_walkthrough and see if it's rendering right for you. It looks fine to me. I had to change the way we were using the templates. The old method, the browsers would allow for rows of different numbers of cells and would render fine. I changed it so the template is parsing rows of equal numbers of cells and the charts rendered fine in Chrome. Let me know and I'll start editing the pages. It's gonna be a tough nut, what with all the charts and having to comb over each for the problem rows, but it's doable.  The Gunny  UserGunny chevrons 21:58, February 28, 2014 (UTC)
I did a number of pages and I'm certain this will work. I also update the talk page over at wikipedia with the fix for some good Karma. I'll see what I can do about giving instructions on the project pages, but this is not something that's easy to do. You have to know exactly what to do to fix it right. I'll see what we can do, but if I have to, I'll fix them all myself. The Gunny  UserGunny chevrons 02:41, March 1, 2014 (UTC)

RE: Light Machine Gun

Prior to removing the locations I specifically checked the policies/guidelines regarding item articles, specifically the bit to do with locations which states "Locations where this item can be found (fixed locations only, no random spawns)." to make sure that I was not making any mistakes. The locations I removed were not fixed spawns, and as such did not belong according to this guideline, which makes sense as those enemies and the duffle bags do not always have the weapon. As such including them as a location can be misleading, and again, doesn't abide by the guidelines that have been laid out. Random spawns for weapons in lockers are not listed, so why would duffle bags be an exemption? Indeed, if one looks at the location section for other weapons such as the 9mm submachine gun (Fallout: New Vegas), the locations listed are specific (with a few outliers that I'm not particularly fond of as they're random for the most part). If, for the LMG we do list all the enemies that might spawn with one, should we not do that for all weapons? If we are going to list the occasional spawn in duffle bags which means it's part of a spawn list then should we mention for other weapons that they might be found in the lockers at Jean Sky Diving?

My bad, then. I just wanted efficiency. --Breakin'Benny (talk) 14:04, February 28, 2014 (UTC)

Redirects

I have the WhatLinksHere on my bar. As for locations, I know what you mean, I've seen plenty of caves and caverns (for example) that go from upper to lower or vice versa, but whatever you think is best. I'll get on with items and consumables, and let you think it over some more. --TribalWisdom(colour) Talk! 14:36, March 1, 2014 (UTC)

Removing redlinks

Hey J, when admins delete a page you should really wait for said admins to finish the job and delete the redlinks created themselves. It's quite annoying to spend the effort tracking and removing them only to have an edit conflict when you click the publish button...

Plasma Rifle

You wanna go ahead and delete that page? The creator is removing the tag and getting a bit frustrating. Thanks Gunslinger470/The-Gunslinger "Some say this user is a Patroller..." Some say this user used to be a Patroller... 18:16, March 3, 2014 (UTC)

Glad to help

I think I've just needed some thing to focus on, I've been floating around a bit recently. At least until the third person project gets going and when the FO3 dialogues eventually go up (so I can finish the disambigs) I'll have plenty to do.

As for other links, it's just something that comes naturally, I don't plan to delete them! On the subject, what about pluralized pages? I noticed you deleted "Protectrons" earlier. I've been going back and forth from letters as I've got more confident, also I've been thinking about how many of these links are put into an articles simply because they're one the first to pop up on the predictive. Any tips are still greatly appreciated. Thanks. --TribalWisdom(colour) Talk! 18:56, March 3, 2014 (UTC)

Also, along the lines of links that go up because they're there, what about lower caps redirects for pages that are upper? --TribalWisdom(colour) Talk! 18:59, March 3, 2014 (UTC)

Done

Got through all the FNV and FO3 quests. I'll double check to see if anyone used the template anywhere else, but that should be the lion's share of it. I might tweak a few more, I did a lot of work re-sizing the boxes and cleaning up the code on most of them. Let me know if you ever see any with the same problem. The Gunny  UserGunny chevrons 02:02, March 5, 2014 (UTC)

<sigh> I just realized that someone added those charts to FO1 and FO2 quest pages, too. I'll start on them tomorrow, I guess. Did someone do any tactics or any other games? The Gunny  UserGunny chevrons 02:09, March 5, 2014 (UTC)
Well, it was a lot of work, but it needed to be done. I'll plug away at the others and finish up. Right now, my headache needs a beer. The Gunny  UserGunny chevrons 02:17, March 5, 2014 (UTC)
Done for real this time. Took me exactly 12 cigars to redo all those templates;P  The Gunny  UserGunny chevrons 01:50, March 6, 2014 (UTC)

You won't believe...

... the god damned bot is ready. Well... I'm not quite sure if it's actually ready, but it passes all unit tests. :))) Finally! Before we start, let's settle some points:

  • I added new column with line numbers, specifically meant to be used as anchors. Now we can link to every response in dialogue (e.g. DLC03Bigsley.txt#135), instead of linking to TOPIC. Let me know if you guys are OK with this?
  • You can check some examples here: Category:Fallout 3 dialogue files, log is here User:Теодорико/sandbox02. Some discards may look pretty weird, but that's how FO3 is done... I can't change that.
  • For now the bot can work only with vanilla FO3 and BS, all other DLCs are out of limits. Don't worry, we'll get them later, one DLC at the time. (Supporting multiple DLCs will over-complicate the bot even more then it is now.) I suggest to export all vanilla dialogues with BS loaded, just in case if BS changes something in them.
  • This time I will insist on complete exports. You see, my bot makes decisions based on analysis of 23+ thousands of low-level dialogue records and 48+ thousands of audio files. And believe me, there's NO easier way to get correct results. So, please don't mess with dialogues - just let the bot to do its job.

Let me know if everything is OK, or maybe you guys have any suggestions... and let's actually do some damage make something useful, already! :))) --Теодорико (talk) 07:33, March 5, 2014 (UTC)

Hey, thanks for adding to the details about my latest entry to the Wiki yesterday. I really appreciate it, because I was in a time crunch when I typed the reference.

Untitled 1

Why did you delete the page i made? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fallout-new-vegas-master (talkcontribs). Please sign your posts with ~~~~!

NPCID

Yeah, just like for FNV:

  • NPCID=npc1 or NPCID=npc1,npc2,...,npcn
  • Empty or no NPCID — no filtering whatsoever (manual override).

Star Cap

You conflicted me trying to undo my edit. Damn you, you fast robot. --TwoBearsHigh-Fiving Intercom01 18:19, March 6, 2014 (UTC)

Aha, I didn't mean it in a bad way, you are just quite fast is all. I hope all else is well.--TwoBearsHigh-Fiving Intercom01 18:29, March 6, 2014 (UTC)

Enclave

I was originally gonna call it that, but I discovered Department of the Army is the actual name, as according to the Enclave Field Entries. I noticed that Department of Army page before in the past, it could probably do with deletion, there's hardly anything to it, it was just made as a redirect to a non-existent page back in 2008 for some reason.

Z - N

Yes it is going well, I've had a good go but I think it'd be best for you to pick up on the ones I wasn't so sure on, but all the obvious ones are/should be gone. I'll have another scour through then head to A to help out. --TribalWisdom(colour) Talk! 21:03, March 6, 2014 (UTC)

Fallout 2 Restoration Project

Hi! Some time ago I've asked you about the Fallout 2 Restoration Project and its place on Nukapedia, and you promised to discuss this matter with other editors. Don't want to hurry you, but is there any news on this topic? --Теодорико (talk) 08:13, March 7, 2014 (UTC)

status quo is that unofficial content doesn't belong. Restoration project is an odd one in that some of it is legit cut content activated, and other is recreated cut content. Because of that nature there is some overlap. Restoration Project and JES' mod to me shout be included on the wiki, but current policy blocks it. Agent c (talk) 13:35, March 8, 2014 (UTC)

Fallout 3 dialogue progress

Are there FO3 dialogues left to upload? I got my chunk done the other day but haven't checked back since to do more. I have a day off and can work on them if any are left. --FFIX (talk) 13:00, March 8, 2014 (UTC)
