Do you think it might work better if the left and right wings were clipped off the image [[:Image:Archive Turbine 2008 center image.png]] and it was just the AC badge in the middle and keep it centered? Since our text area is a subsection of the page instead of having the image span the whole page like at the original site. That's what I did with the 2003 image, clipped it as narrow as I could in order to keep it from bleeding off the page too often.--[[User:Tlosk|Tlosk]] 11:53, 10 May 2009 (CDT)
My Apologies for making a change to reflect how this quest was now. I will refrain from doing so in the future.

I changed the color schemes on the skill pages, they were unreadable before. If you would prefer different colors that's fine by me. I figured it was most important to be able to see the text :D

The naming of the title screenshots is going to make it harder to make changes.  How about naming them Titles/<server>/<character>.jpg, and then we don't need to reupload the others when the order changes?  For example, [[Image:Titles/Leafcull/Lothnar.jpg]]. --[[User:Widgeon|Widgeon]] 06:50, 3 April 2009 (CDT)

== Re: Wiki Questions ==
Hey there, thanks for the detailed reply!  I was able to chat with Bob briefly in Discord as well, so I think I am fully up-to-date on the status of the wiki.  The reddit discussions you linked were exactly the type of information I was looking for. 


Adventurer, please check out what I posted in [[Talk:Patch_Tree_Template#Old_Patch_Content_.28Numerous_Sections.29]] and give me your feedback thanks.--[[User:Sanguis|Sanguis]] 16:47, 27 March 2009 (CDT)
I was fairly active on acpedia.org making edits back in 2013-2014.  Looking at my contribution list, I have been able to verify that they are pretty much all merged with the current wikia/fandom content.  That is good because my main aim was always to contribute for the community.  I'm in the process of getting back into the game, so any edits I make going forward will be on fandom. Although, I will most certainly be using acpedia.org for browsing/reading purposes.

My own story is actually fairly similar to the AC wiki.  I was an admin on the Dragon Quest Wiki on wikia back in 2009-2010.  In 2010, we decided to go independent due changes being forced by wikia.  That is when I created [http://dragon-quest.org dragon-quest.org] and ported everything over.  I still run the site today and am part of [http://niwanetwork.org NIWA] which is an organization to foster collaboration among independently hosted wikis.  So I can identify with the challenges and decisions that you have had to make over the years.  I still very much dislike wikia/fandom, but I admit that if I do get hit by a bus, the Dragon Quest wiki is probably in trouble.    --[[User:Pagoda|Pagoda]] ([[User talk:Pagoda|talk]]) 01:59, July 28, 2019 (UTC)

Hi there!

Yes, I recreated all of the content for Neftet that was recently released to Coldeve and the Drunkenfell ACE servers. The content is also in the works for GDLE conversion. To answer your question, I studied the data for several months, watched numerous videos on several of the quests to jog my personal memory and meticulously re-created everything as perfect as humanly possible according to PCAP data. What changed was mostly quest rewards as Legendary Tokens were phased out, and several videos confirm the updated rewards.


Gotcha. I remember when they came out, just haven't done the new summoning quest (aside from when it was a live event), so I wasn't sure.  Thanks! --[[User:Atarax|Atarax]] 14:49, 6 March 2009 (CST)
They were outdated both here and acpedia. I also reflected these changes at acpedia. I hope this answers your question! Feel free to message in in Discord in the ACE channel under Drid#4917 in the contributor channel, or the LSD channel under content contributor. All of us in the AC community appreciate your diligence and efforts in maintaining these wiki's! Since the content is "fresh" again, I felt it deserved to be corrected as players will be coming here now that the content is available once more!

I'm using a program based upon David Simpson's code available at http://www.ugcs.caltech.edu/~dsimpson/.  I started working on it a few months ago, but got distracted.  With the current exploration stuff, I decided to look at it again.  It's still very much a work in progress -- for example, I just figured out which types of terrain are snow covered right now so that I could generate the snowy map.

Here are some sample maps. All data is fresh from this patch, and it should be nearly complete.  The big ones probably are transparent where I don't have current data.
Thank you for your response An Adventurer. Also thank you for all that you do for the community.

Re: Wiki Questions Edit

Hey there, thanks for the detailed reply! I was able to chat with Bob briefly in Discord as well, so I think I am fully up-to-date on the status of the wiki. The reddit discussions you linked were exactly the type of information I was looking for.

I was fairly active on acpedia.org making edits back in 2013-2014. Looking at my contribution list, I have been able to verify that they are pretty much all merged with the current wikia/fandom content. That is good because my main aim was always to contribute for the community. I'm in the process of getting back into the game, so any edits I make going forward will be on fandom. Although, I will most certainly be using acpedia.org for browsing/reading purposes.

My own story is actually fairly similar to the AC wiki. I was an admin on the Dragon Quest Wiki on wikia back in 2009-2010. In 2010, we decided to go independent due changes being forced by wikia. That is when I created dragon-quest.org and ported everything over. I still run the site today and am part of NIWA which is an organization to foster collaboration among independently hosted wikis.
