As part of Reign of the Rathalos’ ongoing project, we had almost completed the armour database.
That’s a database of over 2000 armours, with which we could have built tools to select sets, built shopping lists, provided data… But unfortunately something went wrong. The data I used was translated from the Japanese Wiki, and then formatted with various scripts over a very time-consuming process. However there are mistakes.

What I want to ascertain here is how many across the communities (Gamefaqs, Capcom US, Capcom EUR, RotR, Minegarde, anywhere else you know) would be willing to give a little of their time to list some comprehensive armour data.
We’re looking at a lot of data here – everything about the armour. However if we get enough people – just 20 from each forum – we can split it into manageable chunks. Like 40 armours each. If we get everyone – and I mean everyone – it’s going to be about 5 minutes work each.

The work will be centralised and handed out and re-combined by Azrael, Draconacticus, and Fresh. We’ll also do all the work to craft the tools for you on RotR. We have big ideas.
What we also want to do is get everyone to check someone elses work, and submit theirs to be checked in turn, as spelling and accuracy is extremely important (even a space in the wrong place is a PITA). I have an idea for all this.

All I need to know is, are you willing to give a hand?

Please send an email to
armorhelper@reign-of-the-rathalos.com

With your name, your HR and if you are using MHFU or MHP2G so we can send you the batch fitting your version and rank in the game. Also you should be able to use excel. If you can’t, let me know if you have access to openoffice so i can convert your batch to that.

Again this will be sorted out starting monday and I will inform each volunteer later then.
