Barcodes
« on: March 11, 2011, 00:09:15 »
I just scanned the attached barcode. Look what it found:

Found barcodes:
1 : Code39, HALSEY, page 1, {X=538,Y=669,Width=417,Height=27}

The code is:
Code: [Select]
HALSEY
Yes! This means that the barcodes actually translate to something! Send me every barcode you find, because this could be big.

I'm working on as much as I can. Got a barcode? Post it.

EDIT: Barcode on packaging of journal:
Code: [Select]
X16-69868-01

I don't get it.
What is the translation of the code?
This?
Code: [Select]
Found barcodes:
1 : Code39, HALSEY, page 1, {X=538,Y=669,Width=417,Height=27}

This?
Code: [Select]
1 : Code39, HALSEY, page 1, {X=538,Y=669,Width=417,Height=27}

This?

Code: [Select]
Code39, HALSEY, page 1, {X=538,Y=669,Width=417,Height=27}



Also, this just made my day.

Well, I think the one thing that matters is that it says HALSEY, but I think Halsey is just the code. The X any Y stuff are coordinates (of the barcode on the picture, it has to find it inside the picture I give it), Found Barcodes: Is it telling me that it found some, 1: is because there can be two barcodes or more at once. I guess your third choice would be the best. Basically whatever seems extraordinary (in this case Halsey) is the code. I'm experimenting with others right now.

Request: Could someone please get a picture of this:

A picture of something belonging to the legendary edition, I think.

But High quality and right up to the barcode? It would make my day.

EDIT: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_39 .
Code 39 just means It's a bardcode. Page 1.... I don't know. But it's not the actual data.

I think so, and I know many SGP members have the journal, so if anyone could provide a good image of that barcode I would be delighted.

I can...not get it soon, because I'm heading out near Scatland for Spring Break. But I can confirm that that is the Journal's packaging.
ODST is all about switches, isn't it?

Doubly confirmed.  The journal arrives in that package.  Black bubble-wrap with a custom ONI sticker holding it closed.

Well CG, it seems you are the last hope. If you can get a picture, great.

Near California? Where are you going, Vegas?

Found barcodes:
1 : Code39, X16-69868-01, page 1, {X=1517,Y=193,Width=874,Height=1}

Basically, It found this code:

Code: [Select]

Interesting...

If anyone finds anymore barcodes, please send em in.

The Ubiquitous Number! I think Bungie is trying to tell us something...

Found 2 more barcodes, and a new Shotcode (shotcode isn't anything special.).

Neither of em worked, you can check the barcodes out in my recent screenshots though.

Posting new ones: Barcode on Soccer Ball for Forge found this:

Found barcodes:
1 : I2of5, 112395, page 1, {X=1,Y=400,Width=815,Height=1}

But that is only half of the barcode so I think that's a glitch.

I might be that they aren't exactly telling anything, and they are just those funny little ubiquitous numbers...I would still say that they are some sort of a ONI archiving system, but since it can be seen in all papers of the diary - even very personal papers, that aren't related to ONI, really, - it is possible that it is something else...Perhaps time will tell.

I am sort of relieved to hear that the barcode bears the code, since it was quite weird for the package to have it in the first place. Good job. :)

I'm using a phone so I'll be brief. You know the x code they're on other xbox things aswell. Take the ODST Reach Beta leaflet for example. It has
Part No. X16-04017-01 on it. Sorry if the zeros have dots in them phone sometimes does that.
A frog once said if you read this you'll die but how would he know you'll die. He's a frog and frogs can't talk. Who would listen to this frog. So to read this he just wasted your life for a few minutes meaning you are closer to dying anyway so the frog was telling the truth but frogs can't talk?
