The console logs are rubbish. They only have information about who killed whom. A CTF log, for example, doesn't even have things like "Player got the Strogg flag", or "Player captured the Marine flag" etc.

The new XML stats output in Q4Max 0.72 is quite nice, but it still doesn't include stuff like flag pickups, FC defends etc.

A real bummer for stat whores like myself.

The 'statisticslog.txt' looks like it has all the info I need for a DM server to put together basic stats. I just don't know how to parse properly and get all the data together into a decent HTML file. I'm just looking for basic Total Kills, Total Deaths, Total Suicides, etc. Nothing major. Or even keeping track of accuracy for each weapon might be cool and easily doable looking through the log. Here's a copy of my server's log if you guys want to look through it: http://www.xtremedfw.com/fplayer/newmp3 ... icsLog.txt

Wow, log parsers must be the easiest thing in the world to write. Maybe I'll whip one up some time when I'm bored.

English is my second language and I have dyslexia. Therefore, I would appreciate it if you could let me know when my spelling and grammar are horrible.*

I haven't checked statisticslog.txt post-match in a while; does anybody know if "deaths by world" still don't count as suicide in the statistics log?

Let me know if you come up with something. I've searched high and low and have come up empty so far. I'm surprised there hasn't been one written for Vanilla Q4 yet.

Apparently x-battle is making a better log system, mebbe q4max is as well?

I need one for Vanilla Q4 right now.

Man, I'm amazed that not one person has written just a basic log parser yet. I wish I had time to learn I'd do it myself.

I wrote a log parser, but the logs are boring so I didn't bother making it public. The Q4Max XML output is nice, but really needs to be viewed alongside kill events. Flag event stats are not available in Q4 logs or Q4Max. Maybe the XBattle log will offer both, but it seems to log server-side only, which sucks.

More stats can and will be added to the q4max XML stats - such as the flag carrying stats and powerup stats.

What about the kill events do you want from the logs that arent in the stats?

With regard to the kill events, the stuff I'm after are the sort of things that are available by parsing logfiles (although Q4's make it a PITA). For example, the number of times each player killed or was killed by each other player. Also, using logfiles it's possible to plot a graph of frags for one team against another (interesting for TDM games, for example). I also like to produce weapon/kill/death timelines for players -- for example, see here.

That's awesome dude. Are you going to release it eventually? I'm so despeate for a Server side stats generator.

I too would love to see a stats generator. That'd be awesome.

I've moved to Q4Max. GREAT looking stats generation.
