August 5, 201015 yr Hi I would like to know how Tip.it retrieves prices on the various items in Runescape - I ask because i'm not a techie myself. Is it done by web scraping or do Jagex provide an API ? Adventurer's Log for Neohero1972
August 5, 201015 yr Probably via the GE database? 'o.O Some automated program presumably checks there. If you wanted a better answer then this, well...sorry >.< Squab unleashes Megiddo! Completed all quests and hard diaries. 75+ Skiller. (At one point.) 2000+ total. 99 Magic.[spoiler=The rest of my sig. You know you wanna see it.]my difinition of noob is i dont like u, either u are better then me or u are worst them meBuying spins make you a bad person...don't do it. It's like buying nukes for North Korea.Well if it bothers you that the game is more fun now, then you can go cry in a corner. :shame:your article was the equivalent of a circumcized porcupineThe only thing wrong with it is the lack of a percentage for when you need to stroke it. Poignant Purple to Lokie's Ravishing Red and Alg's Brilliant Blue.
August 5, 201015 yr Lol, jagex provides an API...yeah right. I believe they just parse the html, although Pure_mageUk would know for sure.
