Eye Of Another World

The Destiny 2 project that analyzes weapon stats and perks to predict their popularity

by Jorge Jimenez Garcia, as part of a Bsc in Computer Science for Technological University Dublin

How to run

• Gather data To gather data, execute the weaponCrawler.py script to generate a .d2data file. Control the parameters of the search by modifying the 'PARAMETERS' section of the script

• Convert data to a .csv Run the Preprocess notebook. Note that it may need to download the database on first run or if it has been updated since the last execution. Remember to clean leftover databases (.content files)

• Train models Run the Train notebook. Computation may take a long time due to the use of 10-Fold Cross Validation

• Check for live performance With a dataset from a different release, run the Cross Release notebook. Make sure to convert the dataset to the appropriate feature space and encoding with the provided retrofit and preprocess\_and\_encode functions

Datasets available

The repository contains data gathered during 'Season of Plunder', 'Season of the Seraph' and 'Lightfall' respectively. It is present in the data directory, and available in raw and csv formats. Raw formats are to be processed by the Preprocess notebook again to account for changes in the game's database definitions.
