Game Server Monitor Skin?

[Cuzinjeffy]

Hey guys I have been searching the forums and different websites trying to find a skin that I can monitor a DayZ server I play on using the stats from http://www.gametracker.com/. Does anybody know if one exists or advise on how to create one from scratch? Any info is much appreciated thanks!

But what you'd like to get from that website?
You can read the WebParser section of the manual and you can try the RainRegExp tool, which will help you to create the proper regular expression, for your WebParser measure.

So i would like to be able to monitor information about the game server like number of players/server status/server rank. See below.

This is the same concept I want to do just using a different website. Any help is welcome.

You would have to be able to supply the Webparser with a single URL that takes you directly to your "logged in & authorized" statistics page...

WebParser cannot respond to username and password prompts usually need to get to the page you want.

Any site (other than google gmail) that requires username & password to be entered will not work.

Thanks for the info! This server status i posted above does not require a login. So I should be able able to create this without any problems?

If that is possible, then it is just a matter of how the page is designed. If the information is being generated by scripts and inserted in the page, then the parser will not 'see' the info you are looking for.

You are looking at a pretty steep learning curve to create a RegExp that will let the Webparser read that data.

I would start by installing RainRegExpTool by JSMorley, run it, paste the URL, connect, then save the session. You can then begin to build your RegExp to capture info.

If you are having trouble, create anew post, show what you have tried, and ask for help.
