damage logs?

[Eternal Pink]

I've been looking through the NC folder for these but I'm unable to find them, where are they?

Also is there a program to read the file? when I played Star trek online we had a program that would read the .txt file created by the client and make it easier to read so is there one of those about for NC as well?

Thanks

I doubt there is a dmg log or something like some other games do have :) as far as i know they just don't exist :P
other games put the dmg you caused in the console / chat screen to but NC doesn't.. its just a feature that NC doesn't have.

at least as far as i know :P

[Eternal Pink]

That's not so good, I've heard peeps talking about them (i.e check the logs etc) so figured they'd exist.

Could be it was something only enabled for test server

[Dribble Joy]

Go to your neocron.ini file and add the line:

ENABLELOG = "TRUE"

The log folder will then contain damage and console logs during play. Though there will be a small drop in performance on older machines.

I do have the console log.. no dmg log tough :P but i guess i don't have it enabled.. frankly i don't really care lol :D

[nabbl]

Well .. then just don't post in this thread?

There is a character_00.log where everything gets mentioned regarding the shots and damage you received.

The damage.log file receives all information of the shots fired around you. This doesn't have to do something with you and only displays the raw damage.

Thank you dribble and nabbl

Is there a parser on the net for the log files themselves that you would recommend?

Just enabled and I have a Tahren_00 file in the logs folder now.

Would love to have a front-end interface or ideas on what anyone else is using. Nothing more exciting than going through this line by line on Notepad.

[CritiNator]

Should not be that hard to create some simple front-end for logs.
If i get inspiration and time, i just might create one. No promises.

[nabbl]

I am just developing one in C# with nice Silverlight graphs.

But UI is not yet done. Parsing works fine and I get lovely statistics such as: Overall damage received, overall damage resisted, damage resisted while shielded, damage received on what hitboxes in percent and many many more.

I will provide some screenshots as soon as I am done ("soon", registered trademarks of Neocron volunteer team...)

[CritiNator]

Good to hear nabbl. Wanna go open source with that?

[nabbl]

not yet. code is to shabby right now :P

[CritiNator]

I don't care, i understand that fast written code is not 100% tested :)
Drop me a pm with repository info, if you decide to put it online. (Create repo with secret name, so none will ever find it, unless you give link :) )

[nabbl]

We will see :-)

I will then put everything in some shiny graphs and so on.

An hour ago, i was still thinking by my self, that maybe i should do something by my self, cos tbh, i thought you will not ever get anything neat out. But hell, how wrong was i.
That looks awesome :)

[Eternal Pink]

That looks pretty cool nabbl, If I can remember the url i'll try the one someone made for star trek online as it wasn't game specific as I recall for the mean time.

On the damage logs themselves i'm showing...

DAMAGEINFO - Time 5789.704 Damage (Night-Time): WeaponID 3100, DmgID 812, DmgFac 1.609, Energy 300.807, Effect 0.000, Height 63.000
DamageCause: Heavy!
DamageType: Collision!
INS - FIR: 60.168
INS - ENR: 240.640

Is there a thread or a website anywhere that has the info on what makes up the DmgFac? since I can't find anything also the other stats such as freq would be useful if anyone knows where they are.

Well, this is just me and my thoughts:
DmgID=Same type of weapons have same DmgId. For example, RK-250, RK-500 and RK-1000 share same DmgID.
DmgFac=Scale of damage for certain item. RK-250 has 0.6, RK-500 has 1.1 and RK-1000 has 1.9

So, same type of damage, but it's scaled from item base dmg with DmgFac.

Your first sentence is kind of insulting :P

I will post further informations as soon as the GUI is up and running and shows some graphs. Until then I won't go public nor will I make it open source.

[CritiNator]

Yeah. What i meant with it was, that thought you might not know enought programming to complete the task. So i was thinking of starting to poke it myself.
( It's a fact that there's more people out there, that claim to know how to program, than those who really know )

I already stated, that my first impression could not be more wrong.
What you showed looked very nice and im waiting to see more :)

Looks pretty good so far. Definitely looking forward to the release! :cool:

[nabbl]

some screens of it.
I currently have it as an out of browser app. but it will be included in the new NIS (which will be released soon as beta)

many more statistics will come soon. focussed on the UI today. so couldnt manage adding more code.

[SilentEye]

some screens of it.
Lovely job Nabbl!

[nabbl]

It's getting better...

Look at dem sexy bubbles!

[CritiNator]

Very nice!

[eNTi]

look neat, but where's the download link?! ;)

[Kane Gregory]

look neat, but where's the download link?! ;)

There will be no download link. It will be integrated in the NIS (www.neocron-is.com)

[nabbl]

Thank you for all the positive feedback. As Kane said: The Logalyzer will be part of the NIS.

Other than that: I found a way to calculate the DPS. So I will do that next.

He has applied his math skills. RUN!
