We have implemented some more fixes and we will also present a small teaser for upcoming features on the website.

Fixes

Here are the recent fixes to the website:

• Improved Player Suggestions - players connected to your TibiaHof.com account are now prioritized when showing suggestion results, which means they will show up faster
• Added Suggestions to Fast Levels (when searching by name)
• Tool tips for players now also displays guild as well as rank (e.g. if you hover your mouse over a players name it will also show the guild name and rank in the box that pops up)
• An additional 4k players will be added to our local TibiaHof.com player database within 4 days. We will be tracking over 13k players once all these players have been added.
• Fixed a bug which prevented users from viewing images uploaded by guests
• Removed beta labels from Fast Levels, Top Levels, and Top Achievements

Teaser - Upcoming Features

We will be bringing 2 new features to the website.

Improved Search Mechanism

This is a minor feature that will improve on the existing search functions. The main purpose of this feature will be to make searching on the website easier.

Skills Redux

On TibiaHof.com you can add skills to your characters. Adding skills to characters will be scrapped completely and instead be focused around the existing skill highscores on tibia.com.

We can't say for sure when these new features will be implemented and made accessible to the public. We will inform you in future news articles how these features are coming along. Keep an eye open!

A few minor fixes to the website the past few days. Here they are:

• Fixed a few issues related to comments. It should now be possible to comment on images/articles as well as previewing the comments. Thanks to kaud and Martin for finding this problem.
• Connecting your characters to your TibiaHof.com account should no longer update the character (which caused characters to not generate activities as it should)
• Perma Links have been completely replaced by Tiny Links due to browser problems with Perma Links
  Existing Perma Links are still fully functional; however, image links on the website will from now on only be Tiny Links
• Players from experience and achievements highscore page 2 will be added to the website - this means an additional 4k players will be tracked by TibiaHof.com!
• Connecting your character to your TibiaHof.com account should now prevent that character from being deferred (for more information about deferred players, read this post)
• A few design changes to the website, e.g. the search filters for Activities and Fast Levels are now animated when toggled
• Sitemap has been increased in height to fit all the content

14 Jan, 2013 Updates

Just a few more changes to the website:

• Added 80+ to Level Ranges in Free Search for Fast Levels
• Translated portions of the website into swedish

Here at TibiaHof.com we track over 5k+ players and this number will keep growing. We are aiming at 30k+ tracked players, but this will take some time.

Today we have implemented an important fix to the automatic update of players, which affects all players.

What does this mean?

The short explanation is: players that are not active (who has not been logged in recently) will be deferred and updated sometime in the future.

The long explanation: players are guaranteed to be updated within 48 hours. However, we feel that it is necessary to improve the automatic update of players by deferring inactive players to the future, which means that they will fall outside the window of 48 hours.

Why are you doing this?

In order to optimize the update of players we have to defer some inactive players to the future to speed up the updating of players that are active.

For how long will a player be deferred?

Players that are not active and who has not been logged in recently will be deferred to the future. You may ask, for how long? It depends on how long the player has been inactive. Our time table is as follows:

If the player has been inactive for...
30-59 days they will be updated again in 30 days (1 month),
60-89 days they will be updated again in 60 days (2 months),
90-119 days they will be updated again in 90 days (3 months),
120-149 days they will be updated again in 120 days (4 months),
150-179 days they will be updated again in 150 days (5 months),
180+ days they will be updated again in 180 days (6 months)

Notice that this time table is subject to change, we are currently testing out this new improved automatic player update system. During this testing phase already deferred players may be reversed and updated as normal.

How many players will be deferred?

Our current calculations dictates that around 10% of the currently tracked players will be deferred (a total of 575 players).

How do I know if a player has been deferred or not?
Whether a player is deferred...

Here's the first update of the year and it's quite a comprehensive list.

Top Levels and Top Achievements

Did you ever wonder who is the top level of Tibia or who has collected the most achievements? Now you know, simply by visiting Top Levels and Top Achievements. You can also find both in the Characters drop down menu.

Each top list shows the players associated weekly, monthly, and yearly progression.

Both new features are still in the beta phase, so if you notice anything weird about it or something missing, please let us know (contact details are found at the end of this news article).

Minor Fixes

Several minor fixes has been implemented as well, listed below:

• Fixed an issue with activity charts not being updated correctly
• Fixed an issue with COTW not being displayed
• Fixed an issue with undeleted players being displayed as deleted in activities
• Comments are now displayed on character profiles
• Over 5503 characters tracked, an increase of 1756 characters since 3 weeks ago

Highscore Players Added Regurarly

All players that are either in the experience highscore or the achievements highscore top page will be added to our local TibiaHof.com player database. If they are already not in the list, it will take a few days before they are added.

Various scripts have been modified. If the website doesn't seem to work correctly, try to update it by pressing Ctrl+R or clearing your browser cache.

Fast Levels

2 days ago we released the newest feature to the website - Fast Levels.

A few fixes to Fast Levels has recently been implemented. Here is the full list of the changes:

• The URL produced by a filter search has been improved and should now be considerably shorter than before.
• Focusing your cursor on sort by or show me on free search should now correctly change focus to the free search box
• Hovering the cursor over the level- or achievement point-rate now shows how many days until next level or ap 100/200/300/400... and so on.
• Extended the level ranges in free search with 300+, 400+, 500+, 600+, as well as an all levels category
• Fixed a bug that removed players less than level 80 from the progressions result. All players under level 80 should be in the progressions result within 2 days!
• Fixed another bug that removed players from preview game worlds Aurora and Aurera. All players from these worlds in our local player database should be in the progressions result within 2 days as well

At this moment charts can't be loaded yet, but will be implemented within the coming week.

I'm sure everyone is quite busy with the new winter update! On TibiaHof we have also been busy with creating a new feature - Fast Levels - as well as a few minor fixes to the website (as always).

Fast Levels

Have you ever wondered how fast you are leveling your character? Have you ever wondered who is the fastest at leveling overall? Well, look no further, as we are introducing a new feature called Fast Levels.

Fast Levels measures not only the progression of levels, but also the progression of achievement points.

Not only can you look at the progressions, you can also sort out progressions (similar to how you can filter activities) to better find out who is the fastest this week, month, or year.

For example: who is the fastest at getting levels this month, with at least level 100 and plays on the game world Secura?

You can choose between Free Search (enter all parameters yourself), Search By Name (enter the name of the character you are searching on), and Search By Party (search on multiple characters, only possible as a registered TibiaHof user).

Fast Levels is currently in the beta phase. Any feedback on this new feature is appreciated (look at the end of this post for more information where to send your feedback). Basically this means that some features of the Fast Levels are currently unavailable, but will be added in the future.

Make sure to have a look at fast levels at this page.

Minor Fixes

As always, a few minor fixes to the website as well:

• Changed background image to a venorean setting with Tjured spawning demons in the Venorean Bazaar (magic shop)
• Created Archives, containing old background images, logos, etc
• TibiaHof.com currently tracks 3747 characters, an increase of around 230 characters since oct, 26
• Added new mount Water Buffalo and new Demon outfit
• Fixed several bugs

Update: Added new demon outfit to character profiles

Various scripts have been modified. If the website doesn't seem to work correctly, try to update it by...

This year is almost over, but before that we will bring a few new updates to the website.

Improved Login

Logging into the website has been further improved by adding a checkbox to the login page. If you tick the checkbox the browser will remember your login, which will prevent you from being logged out between browsing sessions. This will work for 4 months before you have to log in again.

Minor Fixes

A few minor fixes as always!

• Compact links have changed name to perma links
• Added tiny links to images uploaded by registered users
• Redesigned the server save page - now you can just press Ctrl+C to copy the link once you go into this page
• Albums have been updated to display the amount of views a particular album has got so far
• TibiaHof now tracks over 3500 Tibia characters
• Fixed several bugs (e.g. wrong publisher displayed in images, etc.)

The coming weeks we will introduce a new feature as well as improving other parts of the website. Also, the winter update will soon be released, which will mean certain design elements of the website will change as well!

G'day,

Been terribly busy with school stuff as usual. However, I managed to bring a few changes your way.

First off, I want to thank user theputte, who reported a bug with top rated images not being displayed correctly. This has been fixed now.

Added support to removing images
Also, we have added the possibility to remove images. To remove an image, log into your TibiaHof account, go to images and press the icon that says Remove image. From this page you can choose the image to remove.

All images you have removed are moved to the trashbin. If you want to restore an image, go to the trashbin and press the restore icon next to the title of the image. Note however, images placed in the trashbin will be removed monthly.

In other news, 3k players are now tracked in our local player database, with more players to be added.

Improvements to automatic updates of players and improved login will be fixed in the coming weeks instead.

Good day Tibians!

I hope everybody has had as much fun as me with smashing pumpkins and perhaps looted some spiderwebs or toy spiders or something in that strain.

Well, enough of that. Here's another update for you all:

• It is now possible to filter characters by world in most recent characters, most viewed characters, most tagged characters, and oldest characters
• Players are now automatically fetched from the experience highscore periodically and added to TibiaHofs local player database. So if you have a character on the top #25 experience highscore, you will be added to our character database!
• Ever had anyone ask when the next server save is? Well, now you can send this page to your friends or foes or strangers to help them find out by themselves!
• Over 2k characters are now tracked in our local character database (with more to come!)
• Fixed a bug that prevented users from connecting their characters to their accounts. If you have had any problem connecting your character to your account, you should go ahead and do that now
• Fixed several other minor bugs (e.g. connected characters are now correctly displayed in community pages)

That's all for this week.

Next week?

Next week we will bring a few improvements to the automatic update of players. Players that have not been logged in for a long time will no longer be regurarly updated by TibiaHof (although we will update these players once in a while, just not as often).

Also, we will improve the current log in. More on that next week.
