FFXI Guide: Kida's Fishing Database (Macroing) : FFXI Submissions

Posted: January 19th, 2006

On the internet you can find various fishing databases. Some good.. some better... and a lot of work have gone in to all these sites.

Problem is that many times these databases have not been updated for a long time. I wanted to do something about it and I have made a new database because I wanted people to have a place where they could get updated data.

The site has been running for about a month now and I have gotten a lot of great feedback and a lot of updates ^^ So if you want to take a look at it go to http://kida.theill.com

I hope you will like what I have done. I have many of the features up and running but still have some things that I want to do in order to get the site as I intend it to be. But it is a work in progress and I will keep working.

nice job, seen a lot of good info in it. The stuff about the ! or !!! marks telling you if you have a monster or not by checking the stamina line, I didn't know :shock: I have a lot to learn about fishing so I will read into it more soon as I get home from work :lol:

if you really did all this work yourself; you need to be submitted for a premium ^^ I know someone will say the information is already out there but all the information in one plaec ... and I don't have to go through Alla or KI ... I can't stand those forums because complete idiots post there now lol :wink:

Thanks for that great comment.. glad to hear you like it. I have made the entire site myself although I must admit that most of the data (information) has been gathered from various sources on the net. Also people have sent me corrections. So I made the framework and the users of the site help with the info and updating. :D

Wow... Thanks for the replies. I am very happy that you like the site. It is great to see that people appreciate the work I have done.

As I mentioned above there are still things that need to be done and I am currently working on the map section. Yesterday I wanted to find Crystal Spring in Jugner Forest and I really never would have found it on my own.... it is very hard to spot on the map. I don't think there is anything on the net like this (though I am not sure). Also I want to make a Guild Item table (even though I dont quite know how yet).

I really want to make the ultimate resource for fishers. I want a fisher to be able to find everything they need on my site. I know I still have far to go but none the less it should be possible. That is also why I really appreciate all feedback and suggestions I can get.

So once again thanks for the replies and send me suggestions if you have a good idea... ^^

Hey kida, as long as theres no information about "botting" to fish on it I'd love to give this to all my linkshell memebers. I'd have to say yay for this, a nice comptemplation of useful information although I must say ive seen all the information around websites before. But since its all in once page its awosme

There is no information about botting on the site. I know people out there use bots, but that was not what I intended with this site. I guess the site is just as usefull if you are using bots... but I guess you will get "around" and explore a bit more if you don't use bots so maybe this site would be more interesting for people who want to fish because they want to find new places to fish for new kinds of fish (that sounded a bit strange... hope you get the meaning) fish fish fish

While not directly related to anything botting this is site is also for guides. The op did post it here and its not something that could easily put into a post. This is the 1st place I've seen that has info on the haylcom rod so I say yeah for premium.

Thought you were the admin?

Its just another fishing website in my eyes. But then again TU seems to let people in for free on crafting guides (that are pretty much worthless imo) that have been around forever.

Well we go off of yays or nays. Well i stopped making opinions with me and some mods reason was it caused alot of problems. People assumed a biased opinion. Hence we ask at times. My opinion is no IMO but still if 3 people say yay then they get premium.

I've started using this at home now. The site works great though it is still being updated with maps and such. This is not one of the simple guides that was cut and pasted from another site. Even if the information was copied and used from other sources, the site itself takes a lot of work. Whoever made that site, gathered all that information, and helped explain it so that others could understand -- did an awesome job.

I switch to different rods now because of this as well lol. I have a few cabinets in my mog house that I use for extra storage. I didn't know the Moghancement: Fishing made you find items more often while fishing. Yeah thats my fault for not looking into it before assuming it helped you catch fish (sounds like it should :shock: ) I need to get rid of that after my plants are done this month. Make another mule to put these 10 pots on so i have 30 pots still lol.

In three months now, I've harvested 3, 7 and 4 water ores on my main character and 3, 6, 3 on my mule #1 and 2, 6, 0 on mule #2. 8)
