Improving Pandora Wiki

[Rathum]

So, the wiki is kinda... bare atm. I'm thinking it would be nice to have a compatibility list one each emulator so that you can find out if the game will be able to run right away. I'm thinking it should be like http://pcsx2.net/compat.php?c=key. We can even extend this to non-emulated games is necessary.

I'll try get some going later by looking at video/posts about what runs, but if someone with better wiki-fu wants to jump ahead, they can be my guest.

I'm thinking we would need a chart of games with colors like this:

Red - Doesn't run
Orange - Runs, but unplayable
Yellow - Runs at playable speeds or has glitches
Green - Full speed!

For OC:
Blue - Full speed when overclocked to XXX MHz
Purple - Playable speed/Glitches when overclocked to XXX MHz

Thoughts?

Without hardware to test it on, we can't really do this yet.

I'm thinking that it would be good to get it started. You know, get a template up and such. We could also add some of the games from videos or that have been tested.

As mentioned; it's hard to do what your require due to not having the hardware to test on. I have updated most of the Emulators section earlier on this year. I'll go back in there a update it again and make it a lot better.

Don't feel stupid, figure out why you missed that, and then figure out how to change things so other people won't miss the same thing ^_^
See, nothing gets wasted, we're all green ^.^

The problem is that there's only two places to get to the compatibility lists atm. One's the little entry on the main emulator page that I appear to have skipped every time I went there and the other is a link on the PSX page that's easy to miss.

Making them more visible would probably be a good idea.

That's cool. I wikified the page for you.

I wanted to fix your links, but it seems that Rathum was quicker. Anyways, please read the MediaWiki cheat sheet!

Not only that needs to be added/changed on the wiki. The wiki uses many old not working links and vids, old pictures and outdated info.

Thanks for pointing that out, I've never edited a wiki before. I was actually hoping somebody would look at it and make it pretty for me.
