A couple minor updates tonight on the tracker. Completed titles now float to the top of the Titles Page list. The faces of heros display on the "My Missions" page when [Shield View] is selected.

For those of you that don't know, Rohar's Roughnecks Character Progress Tracker is an official fansite of Guild Wars that allows you to maintain a database of progress of your PVE characters.

I wouldn't mind helping you out CSS wise, but I'm still pretty much a newb, all I do is mostly design DIV overlays on Myspace..

Rohar's Roughnecks Character Progress Tracker, an official fansite of Guild Wars, has just been updated.

I've added the ability to track all of the statues available to post in the Hall of Monuments. Each section is tracked individually under Monument of Honor, Monument of Resilience, Monument of Valor, Monument of Devotion, and Monument of Fellowship.

Wonderful! Now I don't have to track the Hall myself. You missed a couple of the destroyer weapons, tho. Axe, Maul, and Sword.

Sorry about that. I used the GWW list under "Valor" and didn't double check the destroyer weapons list. The list is now complete.

I've made a few updates to the Rohar's Roughnecks Character Progress Tracker. Tracking for polymock pieces added. Norn blessings added to tracked Elite Skills list. Celestial Rat & Celestial Pig added to the Monument of Devotion.

Happy Tracking!

One of the things I've always meant to do is to make the website look cooler. I'm really not much of a graphic designer so I shelved it as a long term task. I've been getting more and more feedback about the site needing a face lift, so I gave it a shot. I realize this is probably going to be a love it or hate it situation, but I went ahead and "put lipstick on the pig". I would appreciate your comments good and bad. (*dons asbestos suit in preparation for the flames*).

Visit Rohar's Roughnecks Character Progress Tracker to see the changes.

I've received a report by one person that they were getting black text instead of white text using Mozilla Firefox to view the Character Progress Tracker. I'm using Firefox and don't have any problems viewing the site. If anyone else is having trouble with it, please let me know.

Made a few enhancements to Rohar's Roughnecks Character Progress Tracker as follows:
  • Modified the section shortcuts on the "My Missions", "Character Mission Edit" and "My Friends Show Mission" pages so that the page will no longer reload when clicking the links.
  • Extended the login inactivity time from 30 minutes to 2 hours.
  • Increased processing efficiency of "Tracker Stats" page (it loads faster.)
  • Modified "Tracker Stats" page to show captured Elite Skills stats.
Happy Tracking!!

I've created a category in the USER namespace on Guild Wars Wiki entitled "Users who use Rohar's CPT" (Character Progress Tracker). If you add the code {{User CPT}} to your user boxes on your User page, you'll be automatically added to this page. Let the wikipedians know you are out there!

Rohars Roughnecks Character Progress Tracker has crossed some major milestones!
  • Celebrated its first birthday last month.
  • Has exceeded 2,000 registered users.
  • Feb. 29th saw 36,000 hits!

I've also made a few minor corrections
  • Corrected spelling of Forgewight's name in GW:EN Dungeons (Hard Mode)
  • Changed chest open date color to black in [Text View] on the My Missions and My Friends/Show Mission pages. (The color was already black in [Shield View])

Happy Tracking!

A bit of constructive criticism

I find the main information-entry page to be counter-intuitive, by which I mean it took me a while to work out that I had to click a character name to update the bulk of my title progression on a MASSIVE page. With an existing character with a lot of titles, there is much to-ing and fro-ing on this huge page.

What I suggest is making all progression pages as sub-pages of the Titles page. In the same way that Treasure Hunter is updated by clicking an icon next to the title, Tyrian Protector/Guardian/Vanquisher et al should be accessible in the same way.

I hate massive scrolly pages

Still love it, nonetheless.

I have some good news, and bad news. I created the [?] links you requested in the title tracking page. So if you click on the Vanquisher of Elona [?] you'll navigate directly to the Edit Missions page AND to the Elonian Vanquisher section. When you [Update Missions] you'll be ported right back to the Title page. However, and here is the bad news, you'll still have to scroll down to the title you edited. [Hint: I use the Ctrl-F feature on all browsers when I'm editing title or skill information.]

It's now obvious to me that I should add indexed links as I have for the My Missions and corresponding edit pages to the Elite Skills and Title pages. Once I complete this I'll be able to refine the automatic jumping.

That's perfect as a stop-gap; sure, it still links to that massive page, but it sends you to the correct section. Quick work there, rohar

It would have been faster if I actually read your message more carefully and understood what you were asking . As it is, I also added the ability to navigate directly to the Edit Mission page from the My Missions summary page by clicking on the status label.

You should make the [hide], [show] buttons with javascript, very easy, it saves you alot of trafic and it is faster for the users
(if you need it: )
Code:
function show(id){
   if( document.getElementById(id).style.display == 'none'){
       document.getElementById(id).style.display = 'block';
   }else{
       document.getElementById(id).style.display = 'none';
   }
}

Add "Rohar Dragontamer" to your friends list, then you can delete, and feel good about the fact you are utilizing the full potential of the tracker

Question, do i have to manually input the information about my char or will it automatically do it?

Sorta like WoW's char web page.

I just recently noticed the birthday tracking system you'd added. Not sure how long it's been there, but you caused me to load in my mules just for that. The site's a huge help to anyone who actually cares about the details like that. Now I can toss out my dozen files tracking all this info myself.

Thanks so much for the kind words. I'm always happy to add little things that will help you get rid of those "slips of paper and post-it notes."

I've never seen WoW's character webpage. Does it compile all character data into a look up matrix like the "My Missions" page on my website, or does it just post one toon at a time?

I've asked Anet to provide a "text dump" feature for GW2 in the hopes that players will be simply able to upload a file to the tracking website, instead of having to manually enter all the information.

Keep on Tracking!

oh dear.
Anyone have any info what's going on with the site? I just tried to log a mission finished and got the "generic lapsed website" page.

This is(was?) a great tool, I'd hate to lose it.

I just had the same thing...did it move, or go? How long has it been gone for?

I was just there a couple days ago, so it hasn't been gone too long. But considering it's been months since the last update, it's probably not gonna come back. After all, he hasn't updated since before the 3rd year minis came out.

Well, I've only just come to Rohars Tracker party (fashionably late dontcha know )

Anyhoo - Great little app Rohar, being web-based its very handy for those of us that play on other ppl's pc's as well as our own.

Noticed a minor error for you - The Sunspear title track - If you are between 1000 & 2500 promotion points (level6), it says your rank is Sunspear Captain not Sunspear Commander.

Thanks for providing this, will be putting in my other chars details later.
