Introducing - ReRo Wikia

[sietse11]

Hi,

 

I just wanne take a moment and tell everybody about the new wikia.

 

This wikia is meant to help you out when you get lost.

It provides a step by step guide to setting up your server and client.

Currently it only supports off-line use.

But when I get the translations part good and ready, the On-line part will be added.

As for now you will have to make do with the Judas bible.

 

For all you veterans. Feel free to make this wikia the best it can be.

rAthena has a Wiki, by the way:

We do encourage users to post guides on our wiki (not on the forums),

this way everyone can collaborate, edit, and update the guides.

I tried not to respond to this for so long but,

 

 

Brian,

The rAthena wiki is awefull.

From the main page you cant find anything at all.

Sure for beginners theres that nice little window in the top right.

But for some reason google is the only way for me to actually find anyting on your wiki.

 

Example,

Custom Maps.

Where do you find that on your wiki?

All pages? -- no ( in fact i wouldnt even know how to use this..)

Mapping? -- no

Google? -- YES

 

So the topic is posted on your wiki, but no1 can find it.

Hence they get send back to the forum where the search function needs to be used 30 times with this search <Kagerou translation> before actually coming up with a result. ( at least for me it keeps coming up with dead ends, and i kno what your thinking im not doing it right--> happend yes but now I know to watch the filter and its still giving me hard time)

 

Rero wiki is all about being easy to use.

And im working in a chapter setup.

Meaning I could actually index everything in a meaningfull way instead of just an index with every page( which i cant get a result from on the wiki)

 

Also it's a wikia page, everybody can add and update the site.

So you should see this as an add on to your wiki and maybe in the future we can cross reference each others pages.

So for now I am just gonne keep updating rero wikia everytime rAthena wiki hands me out another dissapointment.

 

Thank god for the forum

For starters:

 

One thing I can agree is that the current wiki does indeed need to to be reorganized.

 

But as far as actually having to create an entire new wiki is an aweful idea all that does is spread information throughout multiple websites the whole point of the wiki is to be able to aquire information quickly and all in one place.

 

And also how much have you actually contributed to the rA wiki? (0) Yeah it's not perfect but it's far better then having to forum search thoughout rA.

 

sietse I'm not trying to bash down you in anyway I'm glad to see someone trying to make things easier but I think your going in the wrong direction why not try to improve the current wiki?

LOL a search function XD.

never noticed it....

 

BUT

 

did you press enter?

I searched for custom map

and got these 5 pages 1st

 

Announce

Npcspeed

Custom Items

Custom Mobs

Timers (Scripting)

etc

Adding a Script

Overview of Errors

3rd class custom guide

@go

Custom Jobs

Adding new bonuses

 

ok this is no use.

4 or 5 links below that is the actual link im looking for. search the same thing on google with rathena and its one of the top 5 links.

And now back to the wiki.

I had more to gain from judas bible then from the wiki. Infact I cant even use the wiki to program my mobs.

And further more, I dont like changing other ppls work.

So im sticking to the wikia !

which offers less info but is found way faster (or not found faster what ever makes you happy )

I don't quite understand what's so difficult about finding this page you can also go to

 

Category:

• Customization

I think the problem here is simply that you don't know how to use the wiki.

 

Anyways I wish the best of luck with your wikia but without a large amount of contributors it will go nowhere (no offence) I just hate to see your hard work be unused. but hey I may be wrong but that's just my opinion.

[sietse11]

You sir, are almost making me cry.

 

but category I am not finding on the main page

btw

found it, its under special pages
