RODE is currently undergoing redesign and some pretty heavy changes, and will be released as RODE 2.0. Until that time, I ask for your patience regarding inconsistancies and lack of content updates on the RODE page.

Two new resources have also been added to the site, a Steal Simulator and Earthquake Simulator. You can access these under tools on the left side.

In response to the new premium items, support has been added to the view monster pages to change the game server type and enable modified rates for the kafra shop items. You can find the new modifications in the Settings menu in the top right.

With the new changes, you can now have the monster pages show up-to-date information based on the server type and items you are using. For example, setting it to Sakray server will show the correct double exp and drop rates, and enabling bubble gum and combat manual items will also list the correct modified rates.

I've been doing some work on the site again. Right now everything now defaults to episode 11.1 data. You can of course switch it back down to 10.4 or 10.3 if you like.

That also means that all map and monster data for episode 11.1 should be up. In order to make the maps page a bit more tollerable I redid the tables and layout. Hopefully its a bit more to your liking.

One last thing then, I have been working on episode 11.1 guide. You can find it here.

The page has been coming along pretty well I think. I appologize that I havn't made any posts here. To be honest I do alot of my database work while (lol) at work, and my page has recently been blocked by the company firewall preventing any database updates (though I can still do posts through proxies).

First off, if you're seeing this you're probably visiting at rode.doddlercon.com. If you arn't I suggest you do so or you'll miss out on some of the new functionality. The move means that you won't experience the page unavailable issues that have plauged my ro.doddlercon.com domain due to overloading from my wiki page.

I'm sure some of you have kept up on the new updates. I've fixed many (though not all yet) of the 10.4 items. Some new content you'll find is the monster search. There's been some bugs porting over soukosa's code so I do hope you give it a try and let me know if you see any problems with it. Also, my 10.4 calc is in a sort of testing stage at the moment. The cooking calc is technically live but... I really don't suggest using it until I narrow the success rates down a bit more!

I've had alot of encouraging comments about the site and I'm glad to hear all your comments. I know that its taken a long time to get this far and there's still plenty of work to do. I've got alot on my plate here and between actually playing RO and managing the site, and I'm sorry to say that I fell as though I'm dissapointing people by slacking off. I hope though, that I can continue updating the page and keep it building up in the future.

I cleaned up the item viewer to be more accessable, and now can be accessed from the side bar. It also doesn't crash anymore when viewing an item which recovers HP. The ability to change episode database now exists for the item viewer as well now. Lots of the newer items don't have descriptions, but I'll go through and correct things later. I already fixed up all the firearms (including 11.2 firearms!), I'll get to fixing up the remaining 10.4 items at very least shortly.

I'm in the process of getting a discussion board up. This'll be a bit more indepth than the Wiki discussion board, but should use the same system. Also will be the screenshot board, which will be useful for posting new info, or just cool screenshots (hotlinking the screenshot board on forums will be allowed unless it gets out of hand).

What else was there... oh yes. I'm fixing up the map viewer as we speak. With any luck it will be up in 24h. That means that the main components of the database will be linking. If you know what you're looking for, you will have no problem pulling up. If you don't know, well, the search will be up soon enough. :)
