Hi,
everyone, for a long time now we in BIG have been using this tool internaly and i wanted to release it to the public as some people like to keep track on who has the most skilpoints and more skills in one particular category. So here it is, to use it you only need to upload your xml charsheet, to update just repeat the same procedure. I want to release a diferent (public) version of another tool that automaticly updates this site, as we use it internaly it's a windows app who regularly uploads the chars you have selected to the site, xml's still have to be downloaded by means of EMS or similar.
Current Features:
- List of characters by skillpoints - List of characters by number of lvl5 skills - Top 10 in a skill category - Full ordered list in every category - 2 Diferent Skill tables/matrixes for comparation - List of ships a char can fly - List of chars that can fly a ship - Show missing skills ( color markings: green you have all the pre requirements and can train right away, yellow you'r missing some pre requirements for it, red are skills not release to the public yet) - Marking on "freshness" of charsheet - Many other small features and many to come
EVE Skills Showroom
I'm also making this tool available privatly for corporation or alliances based on member number, drop me a evemail so we can discuss it.
Hope this tool will help the people who like to compete skillpoints wise, without the huge threads full of replys, and big working keeping track of everyone's skills for the top.
I have uploaded both of my chars and i'm inviting everyone to do the same :)
Best Regards Sara Dawn BIG

really, since this is my one and only MMORPG, i dont know whether this is a usual behaviour on every game or only on EVE, but man, to me it is incredible how some people really work for the game and create awesome tools like this one. i just want to thank the guys at BIG for this, and i also salute chribba, the people from EVEMON, Character Manager, EVE Info... thank you all for making this great game even better.

Awesome...
I can't believe how many of those top 10 lists I made.  Ok, so there are only 18 people in the databse atm. So obviously enough people haven't stuck their stats up yet. Move it people!
This is a really nice looking system.
Interesting times await... |

I think it's better,way more detailed(to the point that some may not want to reveal their skill point distribution ),and much less work for Dr caymus to keep entering stats manually every weekend...Cut's the useless posts too.
I vote for a sticky.

There could be even more info, for instance: -top 10 number of level 5 skills for each category -top 10 ranks for level 5 skills (per category and global)
I know if you wanted to know atm you could go an manually add it up from the rest of the huge amount of data there is (which is lovely btw) but why make it difficult?
--- Also... I think my data may have been borked up somewhere during the upload. The ordering of the skills seems slightly erratic and no-one else seems to have suffered from this. It's probably my fault then.
Interesting times await... |

Edited by: Kerr AVON on 30/07/2006 07:37:44 Lovely tool.
I've uploaded my xml charsheet a couple of times, and have noticed that 700k of my Science skills are somehow missing. The xml is definitely correct, so maybe EVE Skills is counting something a bit screwy?

I'm glad people liked the tool :) in terms of stats, almost anything can be done, with a couple sql querys, to get all sorts of stats. It's something we've been using for a long time now in BIG and i always wanted to get out but never got arround to do it until now. It was made because managing large corps BIG needed to know who could fly what, and alot of people want skilling advice, whow as the best in something, all of this was hard before. I've always been a spectator of the Top skills thread :)

I do not understand how that can be, unless the xml is not syncronized as the charsheet, i checked your char, and the counting is indeed correct. I dont know how techy you are, but here's the way group total skillpoints are calculated, no real room for mistakes, also the values are feeded directly from the xml to the database, no changes are made.
select sum(skillpoints) from characters_skills where group_id='270' and character_id='145638804';
Returned: 5155277
My best guess is that they arent somehow syncronized, the xml and charsheet in e-o, could you please check ingame and try to upload it again, maybe the xml is now updated.

Not techy at all, I'm afraid. I'm happy if I'm able to log into EVE tbh 
I uploaded a fresh xml, and now my science tree (and total skills) has lost another 60k points. Not to worry, I was never going to be very high on the total skillpoints chart anyway.
Eventually I might end up showing as a negative skillpoint total, that'll be funny as hell

The site doesnt save any xmls, if you have the previous xml and the one you uploaded now, that the later has 60k less skillpoints, could you please send them to me by email, it's too strange to pass this oportunity to find out why. Please rename them so i can see wich is wich.

Sorry Sara, I overwrote the old one with the new one.
I'll keep copies of them in future, and if it happens again I'll email them to you.
(I just tried a new xml just now, and it stayed on the -760k level it was on before. Maybe once I've trained a new level in something it'll sort itself out).

This is an excellent tool for those who wish to sell their characters on forums as well. Imagine, a third party, independent place, where someone can upload their 'For Sale' character XML, thus allowing potential buyers to view the toon.

Hi,
i dont mind, even for people wanting to join corps and the corp requires some sort of minimum skills for something. Atm there's no feature for it, but anyone who wants their char removed can evemail me. Also i'm planing on removing chars that havent updated their skills in say over a month.

One thing I have noticed...the xml file doesn't allow for skill points you have trained in your currently active skill...hence I'm some 300K down compared to Dr C's list. Don't know if it's possible to fix this or not...a workaround is to stop then start your skill (or switch skills and switch back) just prior to downloading the xml file.

I believe that's the only way to really update the XML file itself,and the tool is only reading what is the current content within the XML file..

Correct,
any problems in that area are due to xml exports, i have noticed the following problems.
- Doesnt always have the implants, some times it does, sometimes it doesnt - Doesnt have the 6,7,8,9,10 implants - For some reason doesnt always have the same amount of skillpoints, can go up and down.
This is a copy paste off the code that calculates the amount of skills points you have.
$character['skillpoints'] = $db->getOne("select sum(skillpoints) from characters_skills where character_id='$charID'");
It just adds it all up.

Edited by: Relier on 31/07/2006 04:18:16 I think there should be a note at the top for DOB of the character. Some like to show off how many SP's they have for being so new, like my main with 13.2 mil SP in 9 months.
(edit) ..and then you could add a field for SP per month and a whole new category of top 100 showing off would ensue! A category the new folk could have a chance in

One stat this list seems to be missing over Dr C's is average skill points per skill, I quite liked this one partially because I tend to do well in it and it is nice to see at a glance how specialised a character is. Any chance of adding this statistic?
Not sure if someone else already mentioned this, only skimmed through most of the thread so might have missed it if someone did.

Fascinating tool, one querry from me.
In the unlearnt skills list, what is the meaning of green/yellow/red skills? I assume green are skils you can train and yellow cannot, but what is red? "Don't even bother?"

It's not the site itself, it's a matter of available bandwidth, one of my customers is moving alot of data atm, he's been at it all day, should take a couple more hours. But the good news is that in a few days i'm moving those servers to a new location due to the growth of my customers. And i'll have a full 100mbits internet connection to myself, should be flying in a few days.
From my home cable isp, to that new host, the pings average from 18 to 20ms, it's insanely fast. Also i have a couple more stats and features comming that will be available the next day after the move.
Also i'm thinking of limiting the first page to "top" 100.

Nice,but it would be cool(if possible),to still have a means to display the stats for those who aren't part of the "top 100"?...
Something like a search function that would also display any given pilots closest competition,in any given field?...Still awsome work no matter what though..

Or...would it be possible for contributors to choose to be anonymous? You would see their skill points, but not their names.
In fact, since Foiritain said he edited the xml file to only add one section, I assume it's a simple matter to change the NAME of the character prior to uploading...I wouldn't know how, but I'm sure SOMEONE could figure it out...

I think i have mentioned this before in a reply, or maybe in a convo, i'll add a checkbox next to the char upload, if you select that, it wont list your individual skills, but only the total in each category.
Regarding the deletion, for the momento you can evemail me any request to have you char removed.

I find it interesting to those who ask about deletion ... if you don't want you details there, don't download the XML, browse for the XML and click submit.. weird.

Nice site. I noticed two misclassified skills, though.
Both DED Connections and CFO Training are listed green. I don't believe either of those skills have been released.

The skill is flagged as public because it is displayed on the market, altough not available. I can change it to non public (red), if everyone is in agreement.
I guess i'll start banning people that fake their skills, starting with

Or display both - one list showing number of level 5 skills and a second showing total ranks in level 5 skills. That should satisfy everyone.
I can also confirm that neither DED Connections nor CFO Training have been released yet even though they are listed on the market.

- Top number of level 5 skills for each category - Top ranks for level 5 skills (per category and global) - Top ranks - Top in lvl 4,3,2,1,0 - Pagination of charlists - Checkbox to make chars private, only showing totals in each category

Sara;
I tried anonymising my character name by editing the xml file. Currently the anonymized version is struggling to upload...I hope I haven't broken anything, but at the same time I don't want to stop the upload process in case that breaks something too!
It's not that I'm bothered about being anonymous, I just wanted to try it to see if it could address other people's concerns

I tried anonymising my character name by editing the xml file. It seems to work just fine, and even replaces my old "Grey Area" data, due I suppose to the character ID number (clever that).
Of course, it's not very anonymous for me, and to be honest I ain't so bothered about it - but if others want to register that they exist, but not who they are, then this seems a good idea - and it might save you a bit of work.
I used XMLFox, which is Freeware but does require the Net framework and has a couple of nag screens on exit, loaded up the original xml file and just did "Replace" on the sheet for "Grey Area" with "Anonymous". Works fine.
Just thought that those who have security concerns might want to take advantage of it...but I suppose it does make it harder to check if they have been a bit "creative" with other aspects of the xml file...
Edit: OK, so if you go into the link for "Anonymous" there is a picture of Grey Area's ugly mug. Fine. If you need to know who someone is SO badly that you are prepared to trawl through thousands of character portraits, then I think in some kind of sick way you actually deserve to get the information.

Since the detail page shows the char id... inputing that char id on the eve site results in 1 clicks in last posts by, 1 sec later you know who it is. So in that way, it's pretty simple to figure out.

Very nice tool, thank you.
If I may suggest: It seems that the home page takes a long time to load, perhaps because you are querying a database each time.
A standard industry trick is to convert that page to a static HTML page that is generated from your database at specific intervals, or at specific events.
For example, you could generate it every 5 minutes, or have it generated whenever someone uploads their char. This should significantly reduce the load on your server, and make access quick for users.
As well, you could convert the Top 10 lists into small static HTML chunks that are generated the same way, and are server-side included into the home page.
Just a few thoughts.

I wonder if your (very cool might I add) website will change the way some people train thier skills up, people in the top 10 of a certain skill set may want to stay in that top ten for example :)
2 things that shocked me, a person that has maxed ALL missiles skills (wtf) and the fact that Dr Caymus does not have all learning skills to level 5.
One other thing I'm sure I read somewhere that there is 1 or 2 characters that have more skillpoints than the infamous Doctor but I dont think anyone was able to confirm it.

I might be mistaken but I think that person might have actually posted on the top 20 page the day before it was taken down to be restarted. Although I could very well be imagining things I'm sure they had ~67mil sp.
If this is the case, and I'm not just cuckoo, they may well repost their total at least in the top 20 thread, if not on this site.

Oveur did some data mining in February. At that time, there was one character in the database with between 55 and 60 million points. I then had 53 million. There were another 6 characters in the 50 to 55 million range, one of which we knew, Rhyslin, now retired, who then was about a million points behind me. We have yet to see positive identification of any of the other six characters that were above 50 million at that point in time.
Since my focus is on science and industry (I also like engineering and mechanic for energy management and defensive purposes, and I've dabbled in electronics a bit), I've only trained advanced Mem and Int skills to level 5 And, for that matter, I still just have basic (+3) Perception, Willpower and Charisma implants.

I'm one of them. I have 77 level 5 skills and I'm not on the list. 
it looks like the number of lvl 5 skills list is only displaying the first 100 of the alphabetical list and there number of lvl 5 skills ie no one above F is listed, unlike the total SP colum that is working properly

Originally by: Dr Caymus At that time, there was one character in the database with between 55 and 60 million points.
I'm not particularly confident in my source's credibility regarding the following, but I was told that this particular person was banned (duration unknown to me) shortly after the data mining post for their apparent over-the-top abuse of macros back when module usage gave SP and that this was the source of a tiny speck of griping in the unnamed alliance's private channels/forums, where this source allegedly learned of it with an alt.
I figure that by tossing this rumour out there, it slightly increases the odds of somebody who knows more speaking up.

The new version will have a private option you can use to only show group totals, and not the individuals, until then people are allowed to hide what they dont want to show. All the people i have banned have edited their skills to make them show in 1st place.

You're right, that file is edited. I have only removed skills though, none are added.
I don't consider that to be a problem unless stats for skillpoints per skill is added to the page.
Edit : For a link to a screenshot, look here. Since it's not allowed to modify screenshots before posting them there, feel free to petition and have someone from CCP:s end verify that the skill list is genuine if you can't take my word for it.

go to www.eve-online.com login go to My Character page click on your character now you'll see a link named XML DATA right-click this link, and select Save As. Take note of the location where you saved the xml file.
Then go in the skill showroom website, find the place where you can upload your xml.
Browse to your saved XML file, and upload it.
That should makes it possible for you. Good luck

Q.'s
1) You could rank isk too as the XML shows your current wallet. 2) You could "show alts" as other chars on the account shows in the XML.
I'd love to see # of rank 5's, skills/sp etc. in the char selection.
Great job :)) will try to regularly upload. and pass the link on.

Xml's are NOT kept, the information i show in the site, is parse from them when they are uploaded, and saved in a database, the xml files are not kept, i do NOT save any other chars in the xml. The site is not to spy on people, is to "show off" you'r skills, skillpoints, a bit of competition, and statistics.

It has to do with the order records where inserted in the table. I have since ordered the query to make it consistent. Here is the query.

Actually this problem was caused for me, by getting skill points for doing things. (Used to be in the game in the first few months.)
Basically every time you completed a level in a skill, you would get a few points of learning skill. Since I had the skill maxed out very early in the game, I picked up some extra points which are basically meaningless.

Sara...I think I'm going to stop using your site. It's too open to hacking of the xml.
Fir instance, I'd like to know how Momfer Undersand, who when he first uploaded to the site was pretty much on a par with me, has suddenly (in the space of less than a week) leapt to 2 million SP ahead of me.
Yeah, I know he could have been training a long skill, what with the update on the xml file and all...but it's still true that if people added a few hundred thou SP here and there, how would you know?
All the people that contributed to Dr. Caymus's thread had to invest time to do so...plus Dr. C is pretty good at keeping an eye on things...this (whilst GLORIOUSLY written) is just too easy for anybody to contribute to.

Sara Dawn Currently on the ships/pilots page, you click on a ship and pilots are listed by name ASC order.
Are you able to order the pilots displayed by skillspoints for that particular ship. IE. If you have amarr dread lvl5, and capital ships lvl5, you would be higher in the ranking for that ship than someones who both lvl2 at those skills.
It would need to look skill requirements for that particular ship Primary/Sec/Tert group sets. Add all the SP numbers up and then order on that.

I WISH, OH how I wish, that CCP would take it upon themselves to do this kind of thing. It would be very simple for them to do, as they have the information all to hand, and equally as simple for them to control privacy.
I would have it so that the skillpoints of ALL characters were shown...but NOT the characters name...so the list might look something like;
1. 63,940,853 (Dr Caymus) 2. 55,047,772 (Namarus) 3. 53,948,939 (Anonymous) 4. 53,290,198 (Anonymous) 5. 53,043,409 (Anonymous) 6. 52,637,518 (Fenian) 7. 52,620,053 (Keyser Soze) 8. 52,314,152 (Anonymous) 9. 52,228,601 (Anonymous) 10. 52,096,947 (Whiskey DP)
The point of listing the skill point totals even if not the names is so that you TRULY know your position in the list.
Would be easy for CCP to allow you to set options for allowing/disallowing others to see you character's breakdown of skills as well.
I hope I didn't bring you down with my paranoia...I LOVE what you did, and you did it very well. But you can see the effect you've had with this site, by the sheer number of people who have appeared in the list, who were NEVER tempted to contribute to Dr. Caymus's version. --- Monty Pythons spoof of the EVE Forums; Palin: "Is this the right room for an argument?"

I'm a big fan of this tool and I plan on continuing to use it. Sara does a good job of monitoring the xml data being provided. Verification of the accuracy of the data will always be an issue until CCP decides to publish rankings (and I believe they will at some point). Subtle alterations of the numbers might easily go unnoticed. The best we can do is screen it for reasonableness. One thing that can be done if you see unusual or questionable data is to request a screen shot of the character in question. If the data is legitimate, 99% of the time the character will happily provide a screen shot for verification.
I've done some rudimentary analysis of theoretical maximum skillpoints and training rates. Characters with skewed attributes, most likely science/industry characters like myself, might have up to around 66 million skillpoints if they had near-perfect training track records and had picked up some extra points during the short time when activity-based bonus points were being awarded. That figure is probably around 57 million for characters with balanced attributes. Training rates for skewed-attribute specialist characters might be as high as 65,000 per day, and balanced-attribute characters might train at 54,000 per day. Total points or rate of growth in points above these levels are questionable.
With all the interest shown here, in my rankings, in various killboards, etc. I really do think that CCP will start publishing rankings of a variety of statistics at some point. And if they do I would guess that they would use an "opt-in" procedure so that those that wish to remain anonymous may do so.

Any chance that the "Ships & Pilots" area counts the number of ppl that can fly each ship? Like 10 ppl have the requirements of flying a certain ship and the website counts them together and shows it under the ship type on that site.
