fanheader Posted April 25, 2007 Report Posted April 25, 2007 I made a new banner site everyone. There isn't many on there right now and If you have any banners you want me to put up there I'll be sure to put you're name next to it.email me at fanheader@gmail.com http://fanheader.googlepages.com thanks
»Maverick Posted April 25, 2007 Report Posted April 25, 2007 You are aware we already have a few big ones, like the gallery on ssdownloads.com and Trench Wars's Banner Emporium?
jacob hunter! Posted April 25, 2007 Report Posted April 25, 2007 How do you use the banner emrpoum thing.... every time I go to the site theres like nothing to click to get the banner wtf. I have always wanted to know how do you use it.
»Maverick Posted April 25, 2007 Report Posted April 25, 2007 Click on the banner picture you like then on the next page there is a big 'download' button.Pretty easy. Too bad the navigation just totally sucks (apart from searching per player).
Samapico Posted April 27, 2007 Report Posted April 27, 2007 omfg... I searched my name... and it says I contributed 2 banners... Does this thing like... 'grabs' banners from you or something?... It definitly does... but how? ... They grab the banner when it's sent to the server? Where is the banner data stored server-side anyway? And yeah, never really liked the navigation either... Only valuable thing is 'Show 50 random' But wtf we should be able to get one fat zip of X banners... that would make our life much easier, plus it would reduce the transfers/queries to the website I guess... having 1 bigger download is more efficient than 1000 small ones...
»Maverick Posted April 27, 2007 Report Posted April 27, 2007 yes the bot copies the banner while you wear it. Imagine the bot is just a continuum client, just as you he can see the banners people wear. Well knowing that, it isn't far to think that the bot just stores the banners (that it sees) to the database and displays it at SSBE. (technically it's a bit harder though)
Witchie NL Posted April 27, 2007 Report Posted April 27, 2007 Does it make a screenshot and take the x-y coord to x-y coord out of the bmp or how does it do it?
»Maverick Posted April 27, 2007 Report Posted April 27, 2007 Ofcourse not, it saves the banner packets it gets from each player.
Samapico Posted April 28, 2007 Report Posted April 28, 2007 hmyeah... just started playing with Mervbot... and I just realised doing this is more than easy... it needs like one line of code
»CypherJF Posted May 20, 2007 Report Posted May 20, 2007 I know this is a slightly old thread but wanted to let you know I was the one who bugged Catid to include the player changed banner event into the core. I had a statistical plugin which recorded everyone's locations, flag data, score, banner, even chat information and stuck it onto a php-driven website. Complimenting the flag and player location I used gd2 to output all the information onto a PNG LVL output. Too bad that plugin never got much steam and it was never released.
»Maverick Posted May 21, 2007 Report Posted May 21, 2007 yea too bad, I would've loved to see it working
Dav Posted May 21, 2007 Report Posted May 21, 2007 heh my banner is on there doesn't look right with kuukunen wearing it though
Synook Posted June 1, 2007 Report Posted June 1, 2007 Neat... perhaps someone should write a tutorial on "Good Banner Design"... (My banners always look very flat).
