Rostermaster

Rostermaster Stand Alone v4.5.0 is now available!  Just like its younger sibbling, the two main novelties are the addition of custom fields, and integration with DKP management applications.  This release also integrates a couple of fixes, including some important ones: newer characters might fail being added to the roster as their character ID had grown too large to fit in the database, and all EQ2Players pages being moved to everquest2.com (preventing RMSA from updating).  Therefore this update can be considered as mandatory if you want RMSA to work properly.  Click on "Read more" for the details.

A recent update to the EQ2Players website broke RosterMaster Stand Alone's HTML parser.  Version 4.4.1 is being released with an updated parser to resolve the issue.

Changes in 4.4.1 (6-Apr-2010)

• FIXED: HTML parse error due to an EQ2Players update.

RosterMaster StandAlone v4.4.0 is now available.  This release adds support for the latest Everquest II expansion - Sentinel's Fate.

Changes:

• IMPROVED: Added support for level 81-90.
• IMPROVED: 9th color added for the charts.  Don't forget to update your configuration.
• FIXED: Logged character link of removed members was incorrect.

RosterMaster Stand Alone v4.3.0 is now available.  This update mostly deals with the recently revamped EQ2Players website changes.  This update is mandatory for users of previous versions, as they will not be able to obtain updated data from EQ2Players.

Changes in 4.3.0:

• IMPROVED: Changed char/guild profile links to point to the new EQ2Players pages.
• IMPROVED: Guild Summary info are now parsed from the new EQ2Players HTML page.
• IMPROVED: Path handling in the phpBB auth module should be more robust (phpBB doesn't validate whether paths are configured with or without trailing slashes).
• FIXED: Parse error when updating due to changes to the EQ2Players website.
• NERFED: No longer points to the properly localized EQ2Players profile (EQ2Players no longer relies on the URL path to determine the display language)

The revised version of EQ2Players pushed live today has had some changes that prevented RosterMaster Stand Alone from properly parsing the HTML Guild summary (Average Member Level was changed for AverageMemberLevel on the Guild Summary page).

I have put together a quick hotfix to work around thie issue (by converting this field on-the-fly at parse time).  Download the attached hotfix archive, and unpack it on top of your RMSA 4.2.0 installation, replacing both files with the updated ones.

If you are still using an older version of RMSA, you will have to upgrade to 4.2.0 first, then apply this hotfix on top of it.

This hotfix is still accessing pages from the old version of EQ2Players.  I will try to find some time in the coming weeks to adapt RMSA to parse data from the new version of EQ2Players instead.

RosterMaster Stand Alone v4.2.0 is now available.  This version essentially consists in support for more CMS/forum platforms, and a few display improvements.
