Ryzlofp is now open to non-french players :)

Good evening mylords & miladies,

This little word just to inform the english community that Ryzlofp (Ryzom log file parser) is now opened and will be maintained in English, and pretty soon in German.. The goal is to parse the main ryzom log file client.log to purge it from all debugging informationsn and present it in a clean and readable way. It will have much more functionnalities than using the chatLog command IG.

I decided to develop it after i had to search & re-write the log on a guild meeting. Spent easily one hour to make a good log, with this site it won't take more than a few minutes and a few clicks.

Functionnalities are for now kinda simple -only the parsing of IG chat with selection of characters to include or not- but they will quickly improve. Last one was the multi-language release for you folks

Everything is explained and described on the site, so i won't tell evrything in here.

PS: your log files are still saved on the server when you submit them. It won't be the case anymore as soon as the site won't be considered "beta" and will go "gold". For now i keep them only for debugging purposes, nothing more. When the site will go gold, it will of course be notified in the news section on the site.

Also, last word, the site received a written agree from the French GM's (Washh). It's in the post about Ryzlofp in the french general section.

here is the URL: http://ryzlofp.egocentrique.com

I'm waiting for your thoughts

Looks very handy... does it log /tells as well? How about splitting up the logs into the different windows they were recieved in? *goes to read website*

i would love to propose this, unfortunately it's impossible for now, because dev's don't include that information in the log file. From the log file I just know a general message was received, but i can't determine in which chat window: no information about around/general/team/guild/etc, and no the private messages are not logged.
Actually, private message you send are logged, but not those you receive :/

I made a request to have this kind of informationadded, the gm told me it should be added .. but when ? no idea ..

well that sucks... In that case could you explain how it is better than the /chatLog functionality? (except that you don't have to remember to enable it everytime you log in I guess...)

Well, did you read/try the site ?
First thing is that you can select which characters sentences you want to keep, without having to manually edit your chatLog log file, because the chatLog doesn't just log ONE window, it logs everything is said that you can receive.

Second thing is that in the future there will be much more possibilities with the client.log file, not the one used with chatLog, because in client.log every kind of information is logged (except priv messages and in which window appeared a sentence): combats, heals, damages, displacements when you use teleporters ... so i will probably include some features which will allow you to say "i would like to keep the chat from those players, and also the damages i did + the healings i received. Actually those informations are also in the chatLog file, but not with the same informations, and it's those informations which permits me to propose something which allows you to make your log file automatically parsed, much faster than what you could do by hand.
