XML Character Sheets Now Available!
#41223 - 12/13/07 06:53 PM

The short version: you can see the raw data for Anson (http://www.dungeonrunners.com/characters/Anson) and every other active character now (replace "Anson" with the character you are curious about). Characters that haven't played since Chunk #2 went live may be very out of date, but it won't be more than about 15 minutes old for a character who has since logged in.

You can find the icons referred to in the XML file at http://www.dungeonrunners.com/images/icons/ (where you can also download a zip file of all of them, to use on your own website).

A quick run-down of what information is included: appearance, attributes, current skills, and equipment (as well as some things that are derived entirely from attributes, equipped skills, and equipped weapons or armor). What is not included: what's in your inventory, what's in your bank, and the whole palette of skills you have available.

We don't yet have fancy character sheet web pages, but we have a contractor working on one, and of course now it's wide open: anyone can run their own web site, and poll the data to create their own web character sheets. As we open up more data on the web, we will continue this approach of letting anyone use it.

Enjoy!

Anson
