HLstatsX Community Edition

What is HLstatsX: CE?

HLstatsX Community Edition, more commonly known as HLXCE, is a free Real-time stats and ranking for HL1 and HL2 engine based games.

Hlxce1

HLXCE utilizes a daemon written in Perl to receive log files real-time from all of your game servers. The data is then stored in a MySQL Database, which is then available in game to players or through the PHP web front end.

Status update and request for help

Hello again! I felt it was time to give a status update. However, before I do, let me make a personal request for assistance with this project.

HLXCE is a massive project. There are thousands of lines of code, many of which we have inherited from previous project forks. We are doing our best to optimize the daemon and enhance the web interface. These are huge undertakings. We know there are a lot of server operators and communities out there running HLXCE. As of this writing, we have had over 5500 downloads of the 1.6.14 full version, and we're glad people are able to make use of this project! That being said, we need help. We need individuals that can help create images, or can help field questions on the forums. We need individuals to file bug reports and let us know of new weapons, actions and so on for the games. We need someone to help us develop our wiki and write documentation (which we will admit currently sucks). We need new install guides that are relevant to the newer code base.

Our primary need right now is for somebody to handle the image creation, especially for Team Fortress 2, and documentation on the wiki. We are setting up a new category on our tracker to hold all these requests. We're working on a documentation page to lay out how images should be created (there is a standard and we are doing our best to enforce that). If you're graphically inclined, be on the look out for a future forum post about this. If you're familiar with media wiki and are interested in volunteering time to help us get our wiki in order, please let us know.

Alright, on to the status update.
