8 years ago First, a big thank you to you all for this project.
Semblance did the work, not me. I'm basically Alfred after Bruce Wayne as left.
Do you all by any chance have JSON data for each patch?
Unfortunately Semblance did not save all the old versions. Since I've tracked the project, all the files are located in the gh-pages branch of the repository. Here's all the changes to the heroes.json file since I've started the project.
If not, do you know where I might download older HOTS data files?
Load a replay from a specific version, then exit the game, your Heroes of the Storm directory should be from that protocol version.
Finally, will the heroesjson project work on older data files?
Excellent follow-up question. It will be a TON of work. Because of the format and files have changed over time, the heroesjson HEAD changes with the protocol. You would have to figure out which version of the replay it is, and git checkout the right version of heroesjson. It's probably more work than it's worth. Sorry.
First, a big thank you to you all for this project. Second, a quick question(s?). I am interested in tracking and visualizing changes made to HOTS over time. Do you all by any chance have JSON data for each patch? If not, do you know where I might download older HOTS data files? Finally, will the heroesjson project work on older data files? Thank you in advance.
