Contribtastic, the EVE-Central.com Uploader Version 2

Current Status

Contribtastic is currently an ALPHA quality product. Things might break, it may crash, and it could eat your dog (if you have one). However, it is suggested that all players upgrade to the latest version at their earliest convenience.

The latest version is 2.0-alpha3.

For bug information, see: http://bugs.stackfoundry.org or read the development blog at http://www.yannramin.com/category/eve-central

All you need to do is install, and play EVE. There is no longer any requirement to “Export to File” in the EVE client.

FAQ

I get an invalid path, or nothing is being uploaded

Make sure the “Using folder:” field mentions the “CachedMethodCalls” folder at the end of the path. On Windows 7/Vista, this is usually at:

c:\users\yourname\AppData\Local\CCP\EVE\c_program_files_(x86)_ccp_eve_tranquility\cache\MachoNet\87.237.38.200\235\CachedMethodCalls  (64-bit)
or
c:\users\yourname\AppData\Local\CCP\EVE\c_program_files_ccp_eve_tranquility\cache\MachoNet\87.237.38.200\235\CachedMethodCalls (32-bit)

Note: Dominion 1.1 is now 235\CachedMethodCalls - please check and update accordingly

Technical

Contribtastic is one of two things:

  • A complete re-write of the Uploader into a native application
  • An adaptation of the wxPython uploader to use libevecache

wxPython Adaptation

This is the version with the most traction and currently on the master branch of http://gitorious.org/contribtastic/

The build rules are a bit wonky due to Scons have difficulty with swig under Windows (specifically Windows 7). There is some hand-building finesse.

Expect it to ship with Python 2.6 as the runtime.
