GreatGold Posted June 30, 2003 Report Share Posted June 30, 2003 (edited) The following link takes you to the creative text asset list, which shows all of the texts needed for the game to date. The page has a paragraph explaining what it all means. If you find an entry that has not been assigned and you wish to work on it, double check this forum for a thread about it, remembering there is more than 1 page of threads and an entry might have sat dormant for a while. If you don't see a thread, create a new one and use our current name for the item. Names from the original xcom series are not allowed in the final draft, but if there's no replacement put it in [brackets] as a temporary option. Once you have created a rough draft, create a new topic in this forum, following previous formats. For the first post, just paste the text into the post, and after making changes based on member input, just edit the original post for convenience. ***When referring to names in the text that haven't been finalized, use [brackets] around the name so we can quickly find it later when changing it to the final name. Once the text is finished, it should be attached as a rtf file attachment so that word wrap makes it easier to read.

Breunor Posted February 27, 2004 Report Share Posted February 27, 2004 To the best of my knowledge, the asset list is up to date for Feb 27, 2004. I'm trying something new as well, I'm starting to put links for each entry that point to the discussion thread. That way if a text file is not linked yet, the person can jump right to the thread and join the discussion that way. You'll also note I've removed the member names from the list, the main purpose of that was to know who was working on a text if they had not already posted in a thread. We now require that to happen, so the name isn't needed here. We're all working on all the texts in a group effort. Due to the evolving nature of these text entries, you'll also note I've removed the green "done" option, in reality it's never done. I don't think that option was appropriate in any case. As always, if you see something missing or out of date, feel free to PM me so I can update it. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Azrael Posted September 26, 2004 Report Share Posted September 26, 2004 (edited) Hey everyone, I will be filling in for Breunor in the CTD Asset List, the List will be updated when necessary, it will contain all final names we will be using in V1, please check for the names when you're writing a CT.

[dipstick] Posted December 26, 2004 Report Share Posted December 26, 2004 (edited) Azrael, could you update the CTD Asset List please? I would recommend changing the 'completed' to make it easier for me to see what is going on, and then I can take control of the situation. How about all those currently marked as completed be marked as 'unproofread'. Then introduce two other categories: 'being proofread' and 'proofread' That way, we know roughly what is going on. I will be creating threads for your aid. Edited December 26, 2004 by dipstick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Azrael Posted January 13, 2005 Report Share Posted January 13, 2005 I've updated the List once again, added three new CTs: Alien Base, Alien Terror and Alien Harvest, all of them were not previously in the list and have not been started or even contemplated, so they are there ready for anyone wanting to write.Enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Azrael Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 I've updated the Asset List, January 22, and made many modifications. Final names which have been voted recently have been added and now green texts (finished) can be downloaded from the asset list directly, previously the texts were often outdated, now I'll upload the new texts as they are proofread, so green means completed, proofread and downloadable, other texts may very possibly be outdated.I'll keep it updated as texts are proofread. As I've made many changes to the code, some links might be broken (hopefully none of them will ), if you try to download a file and it gives an error, PM me so I can fix it, thanks.

Astyanax Posted February 3, 2005 Report Share Posted February 3, 2005 Didn't see Laser Weapons Systems in the Asset List, but there's a CT thread for it in this forum.

Guest Azrael Posted February 15, 2005 Report Share Posted February 15, 2005 Yes, in X-Com 2 there was the "Alien Probe Mission", it was also the "Alien Interdiction" in which they patrolled the areas they were interested in with strong subs.

Guest Azrael Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 Astyanax has updated the Asset List.

Moriarty Posted March 12, 2005 Report Share Posted March 12, 2005 I took the liberty of designing an asset list "backbone" in the xenocide docs wiki. you can find it here. ...I just thougt that would make life a bit easier, because it is easily changeable, being a wiki. I don't have too much experience with wikis, so I'd be glad if you could look at it and tell me if it's done the correct way especially the "internal links"... is there a way to make the link target different from the link name? because if not, there is no way to differentiate between for example the pistol text wiki and the pistol art wiki, as both would probably just be named "http://docs.projectxenocide.com/index.php/pistol" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astyanax Posted March 12, 2005 Report Share Posted March 12, 2005 Impressive, Moriarty. If you want the URL's you can find them in the Asset List html code... but since Azrael is currently translating the Asset List (and/or Tech tree ) into XML, I'm not sure where this would fall. About differentiating names from their URL's, edit the Wiki Sandbox at the very bottom of the Main Page to see how it's done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moriarty Posted March 12, 2005 Report Share Posted March 12, 2005 I just found out by looking at the code of the main page. simple, really... should have been looking before crying for help I'm updating it right now, and perhaps we can fill it with life over the next few days/weeks/however-long-it-will-take. then again, it's a wiki. it is never finished Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moriarty Posted March 12, 2005 Report Share Posted March 12, 2005 updated the links to have unique names, starting with "ctd". included links to the corresponding threads... at least for the first fourty or so entries. now I'm stopping for today I did not yet create any new wiki pages for the "finished" ctd entries. I'll start doing that as soon as you say the structure of the subpage-names is alright. and I thought that only those texts should go in there that really are finished. and the files linked by the old asset list appear to be somewhat outdated, at least some of them.

Astyanax Posted March 13, 2005 Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 (edited) I knew I saw something while I was proofreading the Wiki: http://docs.projectxenocide.com/index.php/...mentation:About There is a line that says, "No recruit should modify this site." This is just so you know, Moriarty. You've been doing a fine job, so I'm sure the higher-ups will overlook it. I know for a fact that that dipstick is very happy about your work on the wiki.

Moriarty Posted March 13, 2005 Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 I included all the links to the threads - except for the two or three that don't seem to have any thread yet. I would start creating pages for the finished texts, but I have trouble finding out which texts are in what stage of completion. the "old" asset list is no real help, a lot of the linked rtf files are obviously outdated, and some don't even exist (or the links are broken... there are no text files for the XCAPs, but dipstick assured me they exist).

[dipstick] Posted March 13, 2005 Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 there are no text files for the XCAPs, but dipstick assured me they exist). I did? My mind isn't that bad - it can't be!!

I'm just wondering: is there any text that is considered "absolutely finished"? I mean, finished, proofread, and not likely to change? Atm, there are NO texts signed off by Phase Two, and after that its translation, so it will be a task to do this, but I feel it needs doing. Additionally, I think that the Asset List should be transferred to wiki as much as possible, but the two lists should be done in parallel, so could you both do what you can please?

Moriarty Posted March 14, 2005 Report Share Posted March 14, 2005 I have started re-checking all the links to the threads, and tracing them to the forum they are in.

Astyanax Posted March 14, 2005 Report Share Posted March 14, 2005 (edited) Um, didn't I already mention that despite being a bit out-of-date, the XCAPS CTs do exist? If you wanted to know where they were, you should've asked in the first place. Go to the HTML CTD Asset List directory here, the XCAPS texts are there. At the moment, our priorities lie elsewhere, but I'm sure the XCAPS CTs will be addressed fairly soon. By the way, I have absolutely no problems with your Wiki Asset List. Please continue.
