Current Game & Player's Stats

The "Current Game" page on the website seems to be locked on this:

Additionally, I know it has been brought up in the past (and the thread has been locked with no response for months) but I thought it worth mentioning that Player's Stats are still not available on the website.

When I was trying to figure out how best to use my exp it was a great help to see how higher level players spent theirs, I'm sure others would appreciate this insight as well. Also, I use the "current Game" page to see how many players are on the server, map being played, etc prior to running UT, this saves a lot of time and resources. I hope these issues can be resolved.

I'm curious if this has all been abandoned by Dru as I have noticed no upgrades, additions, improvements, activity, changes nor participation in the '04 server by Dru or Shan for months now. If so, that's fine, just curious as I have been wanting to contribute to the expense of maintaining this wonderful server, but if they have moved past it onto other things then my money should wait.

I agree, these are useful tools that I wish were still available.

I wanted to check this to because i like to see how they spent there points towards.

I blame Elite since his name is one there.

I blame the hatter since the site can't display his name correctly...probably caused it to crash.

Lol

I blame the map. Obviously we have angered Anubis himself by descrating his halls and he smote the trackers to immortalize himself to forever be shown.

As per the player stats, i've always had a player card linked in my sig to my character builds which is usually updated every day or so.

Neat,
Is that automatic or do you have to update it manually...if automatic how did you retrieve the information?
I wrote a script that I used on my old server that would give all of the rpg stats for everyone, but it had to have access to the ut2004rpg.ini file on the server.

Na its self done but it takes all but a min to change any number as I have all the numbers from 0-9 in each size and its a simple cut and paste over the old number to update. Then I just delete it out of my photobucket album and upload the new one. Since it will have the same name, I dont have to modify the url at all. Thinking of redoing the look of the card someday though as I did it all in paint and to be honest, its a bit bland. The only time it takes a little longer to update is when i buy a new ability as I have to actually type the new abiity in.

I also use a stat planner that I built into an Excel sheet from scratch to help me plan out where to spend my stats and when I'll get a certain ability. Screenshot below. Just a little tool that I had thought about releasing out for anyone to use.

also nice.
If you are good about sticking to your planned stat spending you should be able to get the excel file to make the card automatically just by entering your current level.

Eh, i've thought about it if I do decide to do a remake of it. Right now, ill stick with it since really it takes me maybe 1 minute to change the numbers, delete my old card and upload the new one to my photobucket account.

don't you still have to update your sig with the character levels?

yes but thats like nothing at all. I wont have to once I decide to get around to my remake as instead of text for sig, it would be a sig image that would link to all 3 of my character cards by clicking it.

Updated it, I'm debating about it. Someone just seems off for some reason but I don't know why.

It is fancy, but it seems like it is too big. Kind of distracts me from reading your post.
edit: I like the use of icons to tell the class
