Zone Warriors updates

As a few of you already know, I’ve been slowly working on a secret zone stats projects. It’ll be hosted on zone-girls.com until I can afford a new domain name and hosting.

The data will be collected by Torn XML files and it will also be manually entered if data is pre-Torn. You will be able to select a tournament, or a competition. The interface will show a table of the teams (leader board style) where the user can click on a team for a certain to break down into the team’s scores over the season, bested colour as well as other stats. Then it’ll have links to the players on the team then bring up stats for that player, in that certain tournament. It will also link to the players “global” profile, listing their achievements, teams and competitions participated in. Highest rank in x. MVP count. Number of trophies. That kinda junk.

The post production name is not set in stone, so I’m using Zone Warriors as the name.

There will be pretty graphs, no doubt about that. Also an achievement system where I am happy for suggestions. Leave a comment here or a message on the Darkzone WA forums.

Combined graph in ASP.NET with OWC

It took me a while to find out how to get a hang of making graphs in ASP.NET combined with OWC. There aren’t many places on the internet that show, or have a good guide. I was having troubles with creating a combined OWC graph in ASP.NET and I finally worked it out. I thought I would share. I’ve left some of the different methods and properties in there, mostly the styling ones to give a better idea on how to style your graph to suit you. The DataTable bit is in there also. If you want to test it straight out you can replace that with an array of your choosing. :]
