Unofficial Homecoming Wiki

Hello All!  A handful of people over on Discord were talking about a lack of an updated Wiki for Homecoming, I've cloned Paragon Wiki to https://hcwiki.cityofheroes.dev/wiki/Main_Page and encourage folks to update it with current information for Homecoming.  There have been a small handful of updates so far but there is lots of work to be done. So create an account and go nuts!

As a note, I've removed ALL User: pages from the import of PWiki to remove any user information that people may not want copied, feel free to bring your User: page over from PWiki if you would like.

I was informed that I seem to have missed the non standard namespaces, so stuff like Missions:, Recipes: and others are missing.  I'm pulling another export and will import those pages ASAP.

 

EDIT: Imported ~1300 Mission: pages, currently running a index rebuild which looks like it's going to take about 4 - 6 hours for the current 49,000 pages

Thanks very much @Mimiru! I'll try and add some bits, already edited the page and added an image for Tielekku since she appears in Dark Astoria.

 

Bug to report if you aren't already aware: Hidden sections like npc dialogue and conditional contact dialogue (seen here) are not displaying a show/hide button correctly, so can only be read by viewing the page source.

This is likely tied to the Paragon Wiki theme which I've yet to find all the JS/CSS bits to.  I'll work on this though.

What about Netscape?

 

(sorry, kidding.)

But in all seriousness:  Thank you for tackling this!  It's been a long time coming.  You're doing quite the service for all of us.

Extra HUGE thanks for not making it a "fandom" website.  Like . . . seriously, I can not express how important it is that you've got some other hosting set up.  So, thank you for that too, Mimiru!

Just yesterday I started working on an offline, updated version of the Enhancement Sets page. There are a LOT of minor errors in the original wiki version, plus the newer IO sets are missing. I have not updated anything on the unofficial wiki page yet but I'll create an account and start incorporating my offline edits into the unofficial page as soon as I can.

In my offline version (which I'll be abandoning) I've checked/updated all the damage sets (up to and including Universal Damage), so I added my updates to the Melee Damage section of the unofficial wiki as a test and to try and get the hang of wiki editing, which I've never done before. I think I got the hang of it so I'll incorporate the rest of my edits to the remaining damage sets as soon as I can, then I'll start working my way down the page. I anticipate this may take at least a week or two to work my way through the entire table.

 

For reference, I've been using the enhancement set information as displayed via the auction house in-game. I just take a screenshot of each set's data then work from that.  I've attached an example of what I use.

 

I do have a question about images though. The Winter IO's have the wrong icon image, and I'll need to add icon images for all the new enhancement sets. How exactly do I go about adding an image to the site? I tried the 'Embedded File' tool on the edit toolbar but it wasn't immediately obvious how I could add one of my images to the site that way.

@AboveTheChemist On the left hand side of the page there is an option to upload a file. Then on the page you want to display the image you would write [[File:Filename.jpg]] if you just want to display the full image or with any of these other options [[File:Filename.jpg|200px|thumb|left|alt text]] depending if you want it a certain size, or a thumbnail or left/right aligned or with a caption.

I've finished updating the Enhancement Sets page. Check out the discussion page (down at the bottom) for that page if you want to know specifics.

Nicely done, that’s really good! I love being able to see all the sets in one place and compare, very visual! 😃 In a way this helps me compare sets better than Mids!

Im not 100% sure about the colours of the set bonuses though, in my mind I think I see it as more useful to colour by type (red for + damage, purple for defence, etc) rather than whether it’s tiny, medium, large or ultimate. Just a thought. 😊 Great work!

Most of that page was already in place from the original Paragon Wiki. I just went through it with a fine toothed comb to update erroneous or missing data. I stuck with the color scheme for the set bonuses that was already in place and have no plans to change it.
