00:07.03Cairennwow
00:07.15CairennI just got a thank you!
00:11.54AnduinLotharfrom who?
00:12.20CairennJIM the Inventor
00:12.33Cairennjust the fact I got a thank you from *anyone*
00:12.45IrielHm, I'm sure i've said thank you to you before 8-)
00:13.34Cairennthere are some few that say it, but it isn't anything I'm used to by any stretch of the imagination
00:13.37AnduinLotharum, i swear i fixed that earth bug..
00:15.33IrielSo.. should I take the leap and go from Interface\AddOns\AddonName to AddonName in my build.xml file?
00:15.44AnduinLotharyes
00:21.12TainAbsolutely yes.
00:21.48IrielOk.. I'll send anyone who gets confused to you two 8-)
00:22.45TainI have answers for them.
00:24.01Cairenn"grow a brain" isn't usually appreciated, Tain ;)
00:27.17IrielOoh, I just had an idea, I can write a boilerplate 'How to install' document, and have my build process search and replace the addon name when I make the zip file
00:27.59LegorolIriel, the dump function in DevTools, does it produce a dump that is compatible with the savedvariables format?
00:28.16IrielLegorol: No, it's intended for readability by humans.
00:28.27IrielLegorol: Though it wouldn't be too hard to change it.
00:28.32Legorolsavedvars are pretty readable too
00:28.37Legorolwhat are the differences?
00:28.52Irieltruncation of overly long things
00:29.02Irielfunctions are done differently
00:29.11IrielSelf-referential objects print properly
00:30.12AnduinLotharhow did u print self refrencial tables?
00:30.23Legorolhm, good point, what does savedvar do with self referential tables?
00:30.26Legoroldoes it crash?
00:30.33Legoroland how are functions output?
00:30.38Legorolyeah, i know i could just check, but... lazy
00:30.47AnduinLothari know i saw ChatFrame1 evaled in the ss
00:31.05IrielI suspect it crashes
00:31.16AnduinLotharframes are easy cause you can use GetName, but what if it's not a frame, then how do you get the name?
00:31.19Irielfunctions et al are output as nil with comments
00:31.33IrielAnduinLothar : I remember what name I see things as as I print it out
00:31.36Irielso if you output X
00:31.45Irieland X.Y.Z == X.Y
00:31.58Irielit'll use "X.Y" as the name
00:32.21AnduinLotharlol, duh. i did that too, silly me. now where did that code get to
00:32.44AnduinLotharLegorol do you have the patched version of Earth? I dont think it made it on svn and now i cant find it
00:33.52IrielI annotate functions also, if I've seen them in the global environment

00:33.58*** mode/#WoWI-lounge [+o Cairenn] by ChanServ
00:36.08LegorolAnduinLothar, let me look around
00:36.13Legoroli thought we did commit to SVN
00:37.55AnduinLotharone i see still has the table.getn(parents) >= 4 crap i think
00:38.06*** join/#wowi-lounge Parak (n=profi@user-12hdr8d.cable.mindspring.com)
00:38.46AnduinLotharand i swear i rewrote that..
00:39.01Legorolyah we did rework that, hm, let me see if i've got it somewhere
00:39.27LegorolIs SVN working now?
00:39.42AnduinLotharno
00:40.10AnduinLotharsomeone needs to hound thott and get that shit fixed cause it's been down a week
00:41.30IrielWhile you're at him, mention that T is a poor choice for an important global variable in ThottBot
00:41.32Iriel8-)
00:41.47AnduinLothar? we can just change that...
00:41.59Legorolwell, with that obfuscated crap, i wouldn't there..
00:42.11Legorolyou'd need to parse the code to make sure that references to T are not local in all places
00:42.19AnduinLotharor you can change it and ill diff to make sure ur not malicious and update it
00:42.33Legorol*there = dare
00:43.02AnduinLotharjust change the declaration to local and eval T in game
00:44.15IrielIt uses RegisterForSave too
00:44.26AnduinLotharhmm, apparently someone on my server has the Swift Zulian Tiger
00:44.34AnduinLotharim jealous
00:45.58AnduinLotharwell anyway, leg can we remember what we did to it?
00:48.07Legorolyeah
00:48.22Legorolshall we take this to a cosmos channel?
00:48.25AnduinLothark
00:49.22Cairennmeh, you are welcome to keep it here if you wish, although I also understand taking it to your own channel
00:51.47TainI'm glad I noticed this wasn't a microwavable pizza before I cooked it.
00:59.54IrielWas it (not microwaveable) or (not pizza) ?
01:01.00AnduinLotharor (tooBigForMicrowave)
01:01.45TainNot microwavable.
01:01.49TainThankfully I do have an oven.
01:07.10pagefaultmore like who doesn't have microwave
01:07.29TainAh but I even know how to use the oven.
01:07.37Cairennactually, you are more like to find someone without a microwave than you are to find someone without an oven
01:07.47Cairennyeah, well, that's a different matter completely Tain
01:07.48AnduinLotharmicrowaves are like $50 now
01:07.48pagefaulthaha I laugh at that, I have friends who have literally no idea how to use the oven
01:08.08IrielI had no microwave when I lived on my own
01:08.17LegorolI had no oven for a long time and lived on a microwave
01:08.24Cairennas I said, Iriel :)
01:08.29LegorolEspecially student accomodation at university has microwave but no oven
01:08.32pagefaultwell you can get away with the microwave for a lot these days
01:09.06IrielThough I did have a Toaster Oven for those 'smaller' meals
01:09.06TainWhen my family got our first microwave our stove broke entirely shortly after.
01:09.06TainWe cooked everything with the microwave for a while.
01:09.06pagefaultI love cooking though, so I use everything I can get my hands on
01:09.33TainWhen necessity forces it on you you learn how to cook things that people don't think you can cook with a microwave.
01:10.17pagefaultthose new microwaves are as good as an oven
01:10.42TainIt's the ones that are part microwave, part convection oven that are amazing.
01:10.44IrielI dont like what microwaving does to the texture of much food
01:11.10AnduinLothargood for soup
01:11.15pagefaultwell the newer ones are so good you can't tell the difference
01:11.17IrielI do enjoy their re-heating abilities, but I dont really like COOKING with them
01:11.20pagefaulti've seen people make bread in them before
01:11.31TainThere's an art to microwave cooking.
01:11.37Legoroli agree with Iriel, only use microwave for reheating
01:11.52Legorolcurrently, i don't have a microwave.. it took a bit of time to learn how to reheat stuff with the oven (which i do have)
01:12.05TainYou can make things that will taste excellent and have a good texture, you'll never get the browning though which is the biggest problem.
01:12.15TainBut just tossing something in on high for 10 minutes won't do it. :)
01:12.30Irielan 18lb turkey doesn't fit in my microwave either
01:12.32pagefaultyeah or you will get a burned outside and a frozen inside
01:12.35pagefaultturn the power down
01:12.36pagefaulthehe
01:12.48LegorolIt also took a while to figure out how to defrost stuff using the oven
01:12.55Legorolwithout starting to cook it
01:12.58IrielI've yet to have a baked potato from a microwave that I like
01:13.11TainI'm not saying I would only use the microwave, just that when necessity forces it on you you learn. :)
01:13.13IrielThough some hybrid potato attempts aren't bad
01:13.29LegorolI prefer ovenable pizza to microwaveable one
01:13.33Legorolvery different texture
01:13.48TainOf course, dough will alwyas be that way.
01:13.53Iriel*nod* @Lego
01:14.02pagefaultdough still rises in the oven thats why it has to be cooked slowly
01:14.17TainStill, there's a time and a place for both.
01:14.47TainIt takes me about.. hrm 12 hours minimum to make a good pizza dough to cook in the oven.
01:14.54pagefault12 hours?
01:14.57TainAnd five minutes to microwave a frozen.
01:15.03TainSo there's a lot of middleground. :)
01:15.14TainYeah, I always let my dough rise overnight in the refridgerator.  Slow rise.
01:15.18pagefaultahh
01:15.28pagefaultI was thinking you were doing like 5 punchdowns
01:15.30pagefaultor something
01:15.38TainNo, just two.
01:15.50TainOne rise overnight, then the next day once you get it back to room temperature.
01:15.56TainThen it's ready to go!
01:15.58pagefaultnice
01:16.10pagefaultI find making your own bread is very rewarding, as soon as it comes out of the oven, nothing can beat thayt
01:16.29TainYep.
01:16.44TainI made some garlic rosemary bread to take over to my family for Thanksgiving.
01:16.54TainFrom the oven, to hte car, to their house. :)

01:17.14pagefaulthehe
01:17.24Flisher_CodingHello, Anyone know how to change the alpha of a Backdrop (and not the whole frame) ?
01:17.42Cairennso, wait, are you guys trying to tell me that you are domesticated?
01:17.45AnduinLotharget the name of the frame
01:18.04IrielYou coul duse Frame:SetBackdropColor(r,g,b,a)
01:18.06TainI'm a hunter gatherer.
01:18.21IrielBut you'd need to know the original color
01:18.25TainHey Cairenn, why do women have such small feet?
01:18.46TainSo they can get closer to the damn oven!
01:18.49Flisher_Codingok
01:18.55Cairenn|afkFU Tain
01:18.59Tain:)
01:19.07Cairenn|afk;)
01:19.09pagefaulthahaha
01:19.16Cairenn|afkanyway, I really am out for a bit, later guys
01:19.25pagefaultTain was probably the one who wanted +100 to cooking and tailoring for females in WoW
01:19.28pagefaultjust kidding :)
01:19.37TainWhen I get home from work my woman better have it ready and waiting on the table for me!   You know, the takeout menu for me to go pick up dinner.
01:19.46Flisher_Codingthank iriel, I didn't realized that the a is from 0.000000 to 1.000000, soo 50 is like 1 :)
01:20.20pagefaultwhats funny is some of the best chefs in the world are men though
01:20.28pagefaultso the stereotype really makes no sense
01:20.30TainOf course.
01:20.52TainWomen *could* be great chefs.  If they weren't crazy.
01:21.01pagefaultyeah they are crazy
01:21.05pagefaultbut we still love them
01:21.13TainAnd make them dinner.
01:22.13pagefaulti'm probably going to be the one cooking when I get married
01:22.18pagefaultmy gf can't cook a thing
01:22.40Tainhehe I'm more likely to just not let her in the kitchen.
01:23.14Flisher_Codinganyone know an addons using "/ra" as slashcmd?
01:23.51Tainerm Is there a RaidAssist addon?
01:24.04Flisher_CodingCT_RaidAssist
01:24.18Tainoh ok and that uses ctra right?
01:24.19Flisher_CodingI got a /ra doing nothing but no trigerring an error
01:24.32Flisher_Codingctra is ct_raidassist :-P
01:24.34IrielIsn't /ra 'talk on raid channel' ?
01:24.43Flisher_CodingA cookie for Iriel :-P
01:24.46AnduinLotharyes
01:24.58Flisher_CodingAny suggestion for RaidAwareness?
01:25.01TainOooh that's a good point
01:25.15Tainheheh geez, "Is there a RaidAssist addon?"  Wow.  That's bad.
01:25.25LegorolAnyone here uses QuestHistory?
01:25.27TainHow about /raw
01:25.35AnduinLotharmeat
01:25.50Flisher_CodingLegorol: stopped using all quest stuff due to alot of corruption, and saved variable of an awesome size :-P
01:26.05Flisher_Coding./raware?

01:26.32TainThat sounds like Scooby Doo giving a warning.
01:26.32AnduinLothar<PROTECTED>
01:26.48TainRaggy!  rerare the rarewolf!
01:27.01IrielIs this a slash command that'd be used a lot?
01:27.07IrielLike, several times an hour?
01:27.12IrielOr just once or twice?
01:27.19Irielper session (or ever)
01:27.40Tain<PROTECTED>
01:27.42Flisher_Codingto open the menu only
01:27.51IrielThen why not go with /raidaware
01:28.06Irielno sense using a short name for an infrequent thing
01:28.07Flisher_Codingwill open/close the panel, can be closed with a "x"
01:28.11AnduinLothardoes it cure raid viruses?
01:28.24AnduinLotharlike... auto-boot ninjas
01:28.34Flisher_Codingit's a pluging for ctraid, that track all class special cooldown / spell ability
01:28.37TainI'm not the only one who went off in the corner with some of those spectral citizens, huh

01:29.29Gryphenhah
01:29.49AnduinLotharall cause i left out 'then'
01:30.02Shirtan|AFKanyone ever worked with PLAYER_AURAS_CHANGED and tracking abbilities?
01:30.08AnduinLotharlol, yes
01:30.18Gryphenhehe
01:31.01Shirtanand noticed if 1.9 changed it into not firing when you stop tracking something?
01:31.46AnduinLotharno idea
01:32.00IrielI've noticed that the timing of PLAYER_AURAS_CHANGED appears to be different
01:32.16IrielWith respect to actions
01:32.27AnduinLotharit is. you can now equip automaticly when u lose the mount aura
01:32.29*** join/#wowi-lounge futrtrubl (n=futrtrub@port0045-abq-s-adsl.cwjamaica.com)
01:32.30IrielBut I haven't seen any tracking issues
01:32.42Shirtanwell it still fires nicely when you start tracking and also when you switch, but not when you stop
01:34.13IrielSo the icon by the minimap stays even when you have no aura?
01:34.45*** join/#wowi-lounge The-Real (n=the_real@62.61.134.59.generic-hostname.arrownet.dk)
01:34.47Shirtanno it goes away as it should but before 1.9 it also gave PLAYER_AURAS_CHANGED when you canceled your tracking or died
01:35.07IrielSo that's what I'm asking
01:35.22Irielif you cancel your tracking using /script CancelTrackingBuff()...
01:35.33Iriel...does the minimap icon still say you're tracking?
01:35.41Shirtanno it goes away
01:36.11IrielThen you're doing something wrong
01:36.17IrielBecause it's just using PLAYER_AURAS_CHANGED
01:36.38Shirtanwell i didnt try using the function only rightclicking it
01:37.07Shirtani use it in flexbars to pop buttons depending on what you are tracking, and it worked fine pre 1.9
01:37.07IrielEither way, the code would imply it only needs PLAYER_AURAS_CHANGED
01:37.28IrielAh.. is flexbar looking at the skill activation state?
01:37.33IrielOr at GetTrackingTexture() ?
01:37.59Shirtani pop a GetTrackingTexture on PLAYER_AURAS_CHANGED and then check for nil value
01:39.16IrielThat's what the minimap does.
01:39.24IrielMaybe there's an issue elsewhere in flexbar?
01:40.56TemOh Noes!
01:41.14Tem(completely unrelated to what you are talking about)
01:41.38TemI just found out that my "favorite" officer in my guild quit the guild
01:42.24Shirtanhmm guess ill try to register the event outside fb as well and see if that one fires ok
01:42.52IrielShirtan : You could hook MiniMapTrackingFrame's OnEvent handler
01:43.06Shirtanhmm i could do that as well
01:43.13IrielThat sucks
01:43.15Iriel(to tem)
01:49.01pagefaultwhat the hell
01:49.17pagefaultI think it takes less time to fly to org from winterspring than it does to fly there
01:49.25pagefaultit's like 4:50 to fly to org
01:49.32pagefaultbut 5:something to fly to wintersprint

01:52.25Beladonanight all, gonna bug out a bit early. I have been at work during the midnight hours two nights in a row so kinda running on empty atm =)

02:12.17Fanookdid 1.9 break comedictips?
02:12.30Guillotineno. 1.9 MADE comedictips
02:12.40Guillotinethere were no tips whatsoever before 1.9
02:12.59futrtrubl;']
02:12.59Guillotineis it not working for you?
02:13.00Fanookhmmm, my install doesn't seem to be working
02:13.17Guillotineare you windows or mac?
02:13.22Fanookwindows
02:13.26Guillotinehmm...
02:13.31Guillotineare you sure its in the right place?
02:13.35Guillotineyou installed it in the data folder?
02:13.39Fanookchecking that now :)
02:13.55Fanookyeah. GameTips.dbc is in the WoW/Data folder
02:14.10Fanookbut i only see the normal tips ingame
02:14.30Guillotineit shouldn't be ;) you were supposed to extract the zip folder into Data folder
02:14.36Guillotinethe path is already there
02:14.39Fanookah, that would be it then :)
02:15.08Fanooki extract my mods to the desktop :)
02:15.45Fanookdidn't even cross my mind the folder would be necessary
02:16.33Guillotineit wasn't before 1.9
02:16.44Guillotinenow the folders matter
02:17.02Fanookwhich is good
02:17.35Guillotineyup
02:20.20Guillotinewow... a low population realm now has a 227 person que...
02:20.28GuillotineI joined a low population realm for a REASON
02:21.54GenNMXI think WoW's servers are having problems, I'm tracerouting fine to everything else.
02:22.38Guillotineyou shouldn't be able to traceroute/ping WoW servers
02:22.53Guillotinenot the game servers I mean
02:22.59Guillotineyou can do the webservers
02:23.20GenNMXGuillotine: I'm not tracerouting to the particular WoW server, I'm using the number they give to traceroute to on their website. I think it's one of their webservers.
02:23.30Guillotineahh
02:23.36Guillotinethen I have no idea
02:23.54GenNMXGuillotine: I can't traceroute to their webservers, and I can't connect to WoW. But I ping fine with everything else, nice 20ms. I don't think it's me.
02:24.08Guillotinethat's wierd
02:24.47GuillotineI connected to the servers, but I AM getting a timeout when tracerouting www.worldofwarcraft.com
02:26.26Guillotinewell, it seems somethings wrong with their webservers
02:26.31Guillotinebut I am connected to WoW
02:26.42Guillotinethough it took 5 minutes to finish handshaking
02:27.07GenNMXYeah I got connected once, but the login was slooow. So it's probably their login servers.
02:27.20TainIt must be another DOS attack!  WOW IS DOOOOMED!
02:28.50Guillotineit could well be
02:29.00Guillotinethough it does seem like you're being sarcasit
02:29.06Guillotinesarcastic even
02:29.30TainYou are correct, sir.
02:34.00MaldiviaFanook: and which server is that?
02:34.08MaldiviaSargeras could use a kick aswell :)
02:34.33FanookLothar
02:34.51Fanookyay! my comedictips work now!
02:34.54MaldiviaWe just killed Onyxia... or well, half the raid sees her dead, the other half at healths varing from 6 to 40% :)
02:35.13Maldiviashe's standing there, turning to look at out MT all the time :)
02:35.13Fanookthat's new
02:36.37GenNMXIs it just me, or are the servers always especially flakey before Tuesday maintenance?
02:38.02Maldiviawell, this week been worse than ever...
02:38.14GenNMXI can picture some BOFH network engineer switching the packet analyzer ON right before Tuesdays so he can keep arguing the "extended maintenance" (or "extended overtime") is worth it ;)

03:02.38ForgottenLordsis 800G overpriced for Nexus Crystals?
03:02.49Esamynnfor a single Nexus Crystal?
03:02.58ForgottenLordsYes
03:03.01Codayus....
03:03.06CodayusYou've got to be joking.
03:03.12Maldivia80g perhaps
03:03.13EsamynnI would say so
03:03.22CodayusThey're were like 70g a few days oago on my server.
03:03.29ForgottenLordson Icecrown, Alliance, there are 2 up there, each for 500G minimum, 800 BO
03:03.52Maldiviahehe... they are selling for 70-100g on Sargeras
03:03.55Esamynn................................................................................................
03:04.03CodayusPeople are always spamming trade trying to sell them...prices started at 200g, but dropped below 100g within 36 hours of the patch.
03:04.19TainIf there's no competition put them up high.
03:04.32Maldiviawell, they might be up - but noone in their right state of mind would buy at those prices
03:04.38CodayusIt'll depend how new your server is, I guess.
03:04.52TainYou just never know.  People don't always know what things are worth.
03:05.31Maldiviawell, what does the cheapest level 51+ epics go for on that server
03:05.46Maldivianexus shards shouldn't be more expensive than that
03:05.47ForgottenLordsHmm, like what for example?
03:05.51MaldiviaLifestone
03:05.51CodayusRaiding guilds that have been hitting MC for a while will be DEing a *lot* of cenarion and felheart.
03:06.07ForgottenLords250G buyout max for lifestones
03:06.14CodayusThey'll use a lot on their own enchants, but that's still a steady supply of Nexus crystals hitting the AH.
03:06.21Maldivialifestones DE to nexus shards
03:06.37Maldivianotice - plural
03:06.45Maldivia1-2 shards from a lifestone
03:06.58Maldiviaso 800g is wastly overpriced
03:07.04TainLifestones?  Bought one a while back for 100g
03:07.36CodayusHmm.  If you want to gamble, buy a lifestone, DE it, then try undercutting.  :-)
03:08.06ForgottenLordsundercutting an 800G buyout is something I can probably do :)
03:08.28Maldiviaany epic, level 51 or above should disenchant to 1-2 nexus crystals
03:08.34CodayusThe tricky part will be in making the sale.  :-)
03:08.55Maldiviayeah - considering all the good nexus enchants arent available yet, since they drop in AQ20
03:09.05ForgottenLordsyeah, I am seeing Twigs of the World Tree on BO for 15G.  I got a nexus from one already, and even if I sell for 100G, then thats 85G profit
03:09.33GenNMXHello, 90% of the servers are "Full".
03:09.46ForgottenLordsyoud think Blizz would pick up on that
03:09.51ForgottenLordschristmas rush maybe?
03:10.03CodayusHmm, lvl 51 epic is 100% chance of a nexus crystal?
03:10.09GenNMXNo, login is also taking an inordinately long time. I think "Full" means "we're broken".
03:10.26ForgottenLordsI am not sure about that
03:10.34TainI got in.  But then I logged out because I didn't feel like playing.
03:10.42GenNMXI just tried one with "Low" and now I'm stuck at "Connected".
03:10.42Maldiviafrom patch notes:
03:10.47Maldivia- Epic items that are level 51 and above will now disenchant into a Nexus Crystal.
03:11.04Maldiviaso yes, all 51+ epics are 100%
03:11.09CodayusInteresting.
03:11.30CodayusOkay, the real question is, whats the odds of getting one from a blue...
03:11.33GenNMXI just wanna test addons! Grrr.
03:11.48Maldivialow
03:12.04Maldiviapeople are talking about 1-2% from blues

03:15.14Corrodiasa lot of web servers, including google, don't respond to pings
03:15.21Corrodiasat least, i've never managed to get a response from them
03:16.00TainI always get a ping response from google.com
03:16.34Corrodiasyou suck
03:16.36GenNMXCorrodias: Perhaps your ISP blocks outgoing pings. A good number of broadband ISPs do that to prevent their customers commiting DoS attacks.

03:53.27FanookGen: well, HD isn't a big priority for me. I've invested too much money in dvd's to get hardware that'll possibly make them look crappy

04:00.31GenNMXFanook: I play my DVDs on my PC, which is connected via DVI.
04:02.25GenNMXI found it more economical to buy a decent sound system for my PC. You can get great sound out of computer surround sound for low cost.
04:11.57Flisher_Codingzalman real 5.1 headphone (with 2 speaker on each side...)
04:12.23Flisher_Codingawesome sound with a sB audigy in WoW, but you get dazzed on hte begining due to sound positioning
04:12.27Tainyeah I need to get some good headphones
04:12.51GenNMXHeadphones won't do it for me, since I either listen to music or watch TV while playing WoW usually.
04:13.39GenNMXAlso, I have a physical problem which can be irritated by powerful headphones.

04:29.05OricThank
04:29.07Orics
04:29.55Corrodiasi hope this quest can be done by more htan one person
04:29.59Ktronanyone else besides me use a open source or free program to watch TV with their tuner/
04:30.00Ktron*?
04:30.18CodayusOr go heavy demo that works great too.  Hell, it's hard to go wrong with warlock talent builds.  :-)  But SM/Ruin seems the most popular.
04:30.24Corrodiasi'd be a little miffed if just a small group of TFS members (largest alliance guild on ET) gets to talk to dragons
04:30.56CodayusI dunno, the chain may stop being doable when AQ opens..
04:31.43CodayusI haven't really got a strong feeling either way.  It'd make sense to me if it didn't deactivate, and so everyone could do it if they wanted to.  OTOH, what makes sense to me != what makese sense to Bliz.
04:31.55Corrodiasthat would be pretty sad, given the lack of interesting things to do at 60
04:36.48Guillotineblizz has already said that it will be doable, but not required to enter AQ
04:39.29Guillotinenot that anybody should do it
04:39.37Guillotineseeing as how it makes the server so laggy its unplayable
04:39.49Guillotinehorde just won AB before any of the alliance could get out of the starting area

05:33.59Guillotineyou know what's interesting? one of the 5 screenshot winners was taken at the IF airport (you can be banned for going there). think they got a suspension along with their Blizz T-shirt? http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/imageviewer.html?/contests/holiday-xmas05/screenshot/,winners/,4,5,http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/contests/holiday-xmas05/screenshot/winners.html
05:34.42Corrodiasyou *could if you repeatedly did it
05:34.46CodayusI'm not sure I fully believe that people have been banned for going there.  You see a lot of stuff on the forums...
05:35.22CodayusAnd to date, while I've seen some claims, they've always struck me as being a bit...weak.
05:35.23Corrodiasi read that, if you were found in a blocked area, you could be warned not to do it again and ported out, at least
05:35.38Corrodiasbut that's only as credible as the banning stories
05:35.56CodayusPft, my server had a tour guide that advertised on IF trade that he'd take people to the top for a small fee.
05:36.02Guillotineactually, I was warned by a GM for going there
05:36.08CodayusHe never got banned...
05:36.15GenNMXCorrodias: More like "I teleport hacked and got into a forbidden area and I got banned! WTF why is the content in there if they don't want people going in there?!?!?!"

05:45.28IrielI'm having a hell of a mental coding block today
05:45.33Irieland yesterday, for that matter
05:45.38LegorolI have complete quest history going back to level 1 for all my important characters
05:45.44IrielI dont seem to be able to write anything longer than about 5 lines
05:45.49Legorolbut i find myself playing on different comps sometimes, so need to include the data from there too
05:46.08Legorolah, Iriel, nice taht you are here
05:46.11Legoroli have question about bookworm
05:46.49LegorolCould you explain to me the difference in the 3 possible "store" options?
05:46.56LegorolAll, New and Unread
05:48.19*** join/#wowi-lounge Depherios (n=Deph@67.189.88.161)
05:48.36AnduinLotharleg, cant u just copy over savedvars to each compy?
05:48.48Legorolnope
05:48.52Legorolwell you could
05:48.55Legorolbut if i forget to,
05:48.57IrielAll - Store any page of any book which isn't already in the database
05:48.59Legorolthen i have to merge the data
05:49.21IrielNew - Store pages for any book that is newly discovered (but skip those which are in the database already)
05:49.31IrielUnread - Store pages for any book that isn't marked as read
05:49.43Legorolok then i'm confused a bit
05:49.46IrielThis only controls whether it'll save pages it just saw
05:49.49Legorolabout the difference in All and New
05:49.53Irielit has nothing to do with pages already IN the database
05:50.44Legorolfor the definition of "All", the part of the sentence that reads "isn't already in the database", does that refer to the book, or the page
05:50.57Irielthe page, sorry 8-)
05:51.05Legorolnot your fault, i am very tired at the moment
05:51.09Legorolbrain is slow
05:51.15IrielI was ambiguous tho 8-)
05:51.34Legorolcan you give me an example of what *wouldn't be* stored with New?
05:52.49Legoroland again, the "that is newly discovered", does that refer to the book or the page?
05:52.50IrielA book you only had the first page of (or for that matter, had no pages of)
05:52.55Irielnewly discovered == the book
05:53.15Legorolok, then i'm missing something..
05:53.23Legorolit's possible to have discovered a book but not have the pages for it?
05:54.23IrielYes
05:54.35Legorolhow can that ever arise?
05:54.40Irielyou could have the automatic storing/page turning stuff turned off
05:54.45FanookIf I'm understanding this correctly, if you open a book, look at the first page, close it, then come back, New would not store the rest of the pages?
05:54.46Irielor you could have removed the book from the database
05:55.01IrielFanook is correct.
05:55.10Legorolhmmm that is a bit silly, isn't it?
05:55.13IrielI haven't made removing content very easy
05:55.19IrielI always meant to finish that off
05:55.25Irielbut that's really what it's intended for
05:55.35Irielto stop you re-capturing books you've removed the pages of
05:55.47Legorolhm, why would you want to do that?
05:55.58IrielSuppose they dont interest you, or you've read them
05:56.03Irieland you dont want to clutter your DB
05:56.13Legoroland a related question, when does Bookworm flag a book as having been "seen"?
05:56.18Legorole.g. let's say that i have set it to New
05:56.27Legoroli find a new book, i right-click it to open the first page
05:56.35Legoroli presume at this point if i turn to page 2, it still gets stored
05:56.50Legorolbut if i were to close the window, then right-click the book again,
05:56.52IrielThe new flag is set when you open the book
05:57.01Legoroland turn to subsequent pages, they wouldn't be stored?
05:57.04IrielITEM_TEXT_BEGIN
05:57.21IrielCorrect
05:57.24Irielthey wouldn't be stored
05:57.32Irielbecause a new ITEM_TEXT_BEGIN would fire when you re-opened it
05:57.32Legorolright, so i better not have that setting :-)
05:57.40IrielIt's not really a useful setting
05:57.42Irielat present
05:57.45Legorolok
05:57.53IrielI'd just go with storing everything, or unread
05:57.55Legorolit sounds like a dangerous setting, at least the way i use it
05:58.00Irielsince you manually toggle the read/unread flag
05:58.40Legorolhm, so you can mark a book as read with pages missing, i take it
05:58.51Legorolok, thanks for that explanation
05:58.56Legorola different question about bookworm then:
05:58.56IrielYup, It's your choice when it's marked as read
05:59.40Legorolwhenever i open up a book in my inventory to carry on reading it,
05:59.49Legorolif i happen to do so in a different zone than i first starting reading it,
06:00.00IrielIt marks it as found in that zone
06:00.02Legorolbookworm thinks that this is a book in a different zone
06:00.03Legorolyeah
06:00.06Legorolis that a bug or a feature?
06:00.08IrielIt's not ideal, but I can't figure out a solution to it
06:00.19Irielit's a consequence of the blizzard events
06:00.26Legorolright
06:00.40Legorolit's quite funny, i like to read on flights, especially long books
06:00.50Legorolso i have some books that have been "seen" in about 10 different zones
06:01.03IrielWell, if you read the book in bookworm instead...
06:01.07Irielthen you wont have the problem.
06:01.13Legorolhm, true
06:01.40Legorolthing is, i'm an idealist, or RP-er,whatever you want to call it
06:01.50Legorolwhen i'm reading something the first time, i like to read the original item
06:02.07Legorolthen i discard the item when i'm finished, and keep the text in bookworm for historical reference
06:02.15Legorolanyway, it's no big deal
06:02.20Legorolthanks for the great addon :-)
06:02.28Legorolhelps a lot when rushing through instances with a PuG
06:03.45IrielThe 1.9 version may have fixed the cache corruption issue with page 2 or 3 of some books
06:04.00Irielor should I say, should compensate for blizzard's cache corruption issue better
06:04.22Legorolwhat issue would that be?
06:04.39IrielSometimes (when it's set to auto-flip pages) it gets a bit ahead of the game's API's
06:04.52Irieland the game messes up its cache and denies the existance of a page in the middle
06:05.17IrielSo you hit next page on page 1, and nothing happens, hit it again, and get page 3
06:05.17Legorolright
06:05.28IrielIt's hard to reproduce reliably against a clean cache tho
06:05.28Legorolbtw, i'm getting a display bug when looking at page 2 of bookworm's help
06:05.38Legoroli don't know if this is due to my other addons
06:05.49IrielNo, it's probably a real bug 8-)
06:06.12IrielSlouken breaks and fixes SimpleHTML in subtly different ways every patch. It's become almost a game now to find out how bookworm broke so I can get it fixed
06:06.21IrielI dont test the help pages as well as I should.
06:06.42Legorolwhat i have is this:
06:06.51Legorolwhen looking at page 2 of hte help, and only page 2 (out of the 9 or so),
06:07.01IrielIf you would be so kind as to throw me an email (iriel@vigilance-committee.org) I'll check it out when i'm in the code next
06:07.07Legorolall the text is correctly there, but there is an ugly black splodge pattern of some sort
06:07.15Legoroli'll try to take a screenie
06:07.54IrielThanks!
06:09.26Legorolwant it attached to the email?
06:09.44Legorolyou can see it at http://img157.imageshack.us/img157/1728/wowscrnshot0110060607305qv.jpg
06:12.49IrielEww.. that's nasty looking isn't it. 8-)
06:12.58Irielit's the scrollbar
06:13.03IrielI didn't update it properly for 1.9 8-(
06:13.28Fanooksomething similar happened with the Properties mod
06:13.51Flisher_CodingRaidAwareness is uploaded at http://www.curse-gaming.com/mod.php?addid=3027, will upload on more website once it's considered stable(it's should), havbe a good night!
06:15.02LegorolI never noticed this before, maybe it's new, but there is a bucket and mop on the Menethil->Auberdine ship now
06:15.03Legorolwoot
06:15.27GenNMXSomeone didn't understand what "poop deck" means.

10:57.33Kalroth1.9.1 - fixed: 1.9.0 wasn't buggy enough, added a few hundreds.
10:57.38Corrodiasnah, i think they've been working on the major bugs. i haven't heard any more complaints about the mail or people being in the wrong battlegrounds
10:57.46Depheriosheh
10:57.58Depheriosyeah, but I got dumped from 3 battlegrounds... twice in one of them...
10:58.16Depheriosand "won" an AB match because half the allies in the match crashed out
10:58.18Corrodiastrue, they haven't done much about that one, yet
11:05.43Corrodiasknow why druids rule?
11:05.57Depheriostanks with healing spells?
11:05.59Corrodiasthey can go with a group of rogues and heal

11:06.06Depherioslol
11:06.08Depheriosthat too
11:09.21Corrodiasbut only taurens. night elves don't know how to be good druids.
11:21.59CodayusMmm, one of my guilds druids is a secondary tank in MC and ZG sometimes.  :-)
11:22.09Depherioslol
11:22.17Depheriosmy GF has 3 Tauren Druids XD
11:22.32Depheriosmost ally druids are just moonfire spammers...... or feral specs who don't ever use forms
11:22.49CodayusHe's tanked core hounds and one of Thekals friends so far.  He does a pretty good job...
11:23.24Corrodiasthree?
11:23.42CodayusWhat lvls?
11:23.45Corrodiasi don't think i'll be rolling on multiple realms
11:23.50Depheriosone is PvE, one is only level 30, and the last is her main...
11:23.53Corrodiashaving three on one would be kinda weird
11:23.58Depheriosnot on one XD
11:24.49Depherioslike I said, one is PvE (forget the level, high, but not 60) the other two are PvP... her first PvP druid was female and she disliked it, so she made another male one XD
11:25.25Depheriosshe still plays the 30 one though... well.. did... she was doing 29 BGs with it XD
11:28.01Corrodiasmy male tauren druid is the pinnacle of masculine sexiness, in his white swashbuckler's shirt
11:28.24Depherioslol
11:29.03DepheriosI like the male tauren, I just dislike PLAYING them... too huge... bear form's big arse is bad enough without my humanoid form blocking everything too XD
11:30.03Corrodiastrue, true, they are big
11:30.20Corrodiasi back my camera out two notches to play him, although in tight spaces he's still a little annoying
11:31.10Corrodiasi wonder if i should try a pvp server. then i think about what it would be like to have a pvp flag on all the time. then i stop wondering.
11:31.37DepheriosXD
11:31.42DepheriosI find them more fun
11:31.48Depheriosnormally I hate PvP
11:31.50Depheriosbut when they can't talk shit
11:31.51DepheriosI love it
11:32.23Depheriosand years of diablo on b-net, and other games where you get ganked all the time, have me used to that part of it
11:32.49Corrodiasi might start leaving my pvp flag on sometimes when running around
11:32.57Corrodiaswell, i'd like to, except that i'll always lose any fight
11:32.59Depherioslol
11:33.12Depherioswhyso? aren't you a druid? druids don't lose, they just run away!

12:23.58Corrodiassee, the usual advice is to not be concerned about the racial stats and to just choose what you think looks the best (and note the racial abilities)
12:24.50Corrodiasi am not sure.. the difference between a gnome warrior and a tauren warrior is 10 strength. i don't know how significant that is at level 60. even at 40 it's starting to dwindle in significance.

12:40.04Corrodiasi'm not interested in playing a paladin, and i'm not sure if i want to have a warrior, see, though i know i want to try a priest some time

13:23.27Corrodiastheir starting location is fun, you say.. oh, i just don't know
13:23.37Corrodiasit seems so stereotypical to have a dwarf warrior. then again, it sounds so fitting
13:24.35Corrodiaswell, we'll see, maybe i will go that way
13:24.59Corrodiasand yes, it'll be a while, because my current three are levels 40, 29, and 1
13:25.33Corrodiasdid you know a level one character doesn't get a full 3/4-level rest experience bonus?
13:25.53Corrodiasor maybe i just didn't have it in the right place, maybe i didn't check that one before i deleted it
13:26.43Corrodiasby the way, why do rogues often switch between swords and daggers?
13:27.21TainInstant attacks like Sinister Strike and Eviscerate (your bread and butter) do more damage with a higher base damage weapon.
13:27.50TainBut your big stealth attacks (Ambush) requires dagger.
13:28.12TainSo most Rogues will switch into dagger on stealth, and then switch to swords in melee.
13:28.26TainWell I shouldn't say most.  I don't know that it's most.  But a lot.

18:13.57[MoonWolf]Tain good one
18:14.14kremontewith a pattern, how would i just match what's between ()'s
18:14.16Ktroni was expecting like
18:14.19kremonteabc (defg
18:14.21kremonteerr
18:14.28kremonteabc (defg) i want to match defg
18:14.50TainHey some of us used to actually have to do that in order to have heat in the winter, Ktron. :)
18:15.09kremontesplit firewood? how primitive.
18:15.15TainYep.
18:15.25MaldiviaI just turn on the computer...
18:15.47TainThankfully we got a coal stove after that, a lot easier.
18:15.56Elkanobtw: how about changing "Okay" to "Damn..." in this error message? http://home.arcor.de/iruwen/wow_worlddown.jpg
18:16.13Ktronheh, so, splitting wood is normal, I wasn't suggesting otherwise
18:16.35KtronI bet some of your /flirt and /dance, so no surprise if /split was a ingame and out of game thing

18:20.59MaldiviaIriel: new API command for your list: r, g, b, hex = GetItemQualityColor(quality) -- new as of 1.9.1
18:21.44Elkanohiho Iriel :)
18:21.51Maldiviaohh... and morning :)
18:23.05IrielMaldivia : Which thread is that in?
18:23.20IrielOr is it just in today's patch (assuming we have one?)
18:23.22Maldiviait's in UIParent.lua :)
18:23.28Maldiviatodays patch
18:23.43IrielAh, it's not technically an API function then
18:23.48Maldiviait is
18:23.55IrielOh, it's REFERENCED in UIParent.lua?
18:23.59Maldiviayep
18:24.04IrielGotcha, cool.
18:24.10MaldiviaITEM_QUALITY_COLOR is now build in UIParent.lua - from that function
18:24.13Elkanoso ITEM_QUALITY_COLORS[i].hex will work now, too?
18:24.21MaldiviaElkano: shoud work, yes
18:25.01MaldiviaLOL
18:25.03Elkanobtw: is it _COLOR or _COLORs?
18:25.12MaldiviaCOLORS
18:25.17MaldiviaITEM_QUALITY_COLORS
18:25.25kremontegrr cmon, servers arent up yet -.-
18:25.35Elkanook :) just wondered since you've all written color before ^^
18:25.39Maldivialol... someone forgot something: GameTooltip_AddNewbieTip(FIXME, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, NEWBIE_TOOLTIP_GUILDREMOVE, 1);
18:25.53kremontehaha
18:26.01ElkanoFIXME? ^^ nice :)
18:27.14kremonteITEM_QUALITY_COLORS[4].hex would = ffa335ee?
18:27.22kremonte(for example)
18:27.26kremontebefore i break my mod =P
18:27.35ElkanoBTW: Since post 1.9 has mostly settled in the forums and I can't post in the US forums: would so be so kind to request a way to obtain the itemid from a tooltip if it's based upon an item?
18:27.40Maldiviawould be "|cffa335ee"
18:27.51kremonte-_-" cmon
18:27.52Maldiviaif it follows the 1.9.0 format
18:28.12kremontegrrr
18:29.17IrielElkano : I believe that's been asked for already, but I could be misremembering
18:29.41Maldiviakremonte: a 1.9.0 entry looked like: [0] = { r = 0.8, g = 0.8, b = 0.8, hex = "|cffcccccc" };
18:29.45IrielWhat is with WoWInterface this morning!
18:30.00kremonte>.>
18:30.14Maldiviakremonte: and the files that use ITEM_QUALITY_COLORS haven't been changed, so I assume the hex parameter contains the |c in 1.9.1
18:32.50Elkanohmm would be nice since it would remove the need for hooking almost every function showing an item tooltip (I still wonder why my addon only sometimes works for loot items :/ )
18:33.23kremontethe item cache is like the windows registry. nobody knows how it works
18:33.25kremonte;)
18:34.03Elkanowell, I'm not having any problems with the cache up to now :)
18:35.54MaldiviaElkano: the number of tooltip calls is limited... so it's only a few function to hook :)
18:36.53krkayay, my flexbar ripoff is kinda working and kinda looking ok:ish
18:37.18Elkanowell, atm I'm hooking 7 of them ^^ but somehow I sometimes seem to miss GameTooltip.SetLootItem since when I put debug code there it isn't called :/
18:38.50MaldiviaSetLootItem is when you hover over the item in the loot window, right?
18:39.44Elkanoshould be.
18:40.13IrielI think our understanding of the item cache is pretty good.
18:40.39Maldiviaconsidering the number of item-database sites - yeah :)
18:40.46IrielThe recent 'mystery' was more a symptom of lack of observation than anything else.
18:41.48kremonteit's still a mystery!
18:41.58kremonteevil things happen when you mess with the item cache
18:42.18Maldiviadepends on how you mess with it

18:45.55kremonte!
18:46.11MaldiviaGRR
18:46.19kremontegrr?
18:46.43MaldiviaI hate that the game disables all mods when it patches, and doesn't asks anymore if it should load out-of-date
18:46.45krkahow do I check if I'm currently auto-wanding?
18:47.17Maldiviahave wand in an action slot, and check IsCurrentAction ?
18:47.28krkathat's what I'm doing... hmm
18:48.04Maldiviakremonte: confirmed, the hex has |c in front of it :)
18:48.26krkamaybe I'm doing something else wrnog :)
18:49.04Maldiviahaven't actually tried it with wand - but works with normal melee auto-attack
18:49.36krkashould be the same thing
18:49.48Maldivialol...
18:50.14Shouryuudo it the hardcore way
18:50.18Maldivia<PROTECTED>
18:50.24kremonteMaldivia:  yup
18:50.28kremonteit still works though thank god
18:50.28Shouryuuwhy?
18:51.14krkaok, any way to check if a spell is in progress?
18:51.30Shouryuusomeone asked that the other day on the forums
18:51.32Shouryuunever saw an answer
18:52.03krkaexcept the evens
18:52.05krkaevents
18:52.25Shouryuuyou could always parse the combat log for "you do X damage with wand"
18:52.27Shouryuuand
18:52.50Shouryuuif your wand's attack speed is Y, if after Y seconds you don't see that again then you're not wanding
18:52.54Shouryuubut that would be HIGHLY inacurate
18:53.00ShouryuuI guess =p
18:53.34krkaSpellStopCasting doesn't stop wand
18:53.51Maldiviakrka: ehh, it does for me :)
18:54.01krkaweird
18:55.05Shouryuudoes ToastThief come aroud here anymore?
18:55.19krkahow annoying that it doesn't work for me
18:55.20Fanook!@#$$! Why does Bib Action Bars insist on resetting to the defaults everytime i patch...
18:55.28krkacould it be cause I'm doing it from RunScript?
18:55.55krkaDOH
18:55.56krkai see it now
18:56.09krkai first convert the string to a function, and then run that through RunScript

19:01.31IrielIsn't it "Shoot Wand" ?
19:01.46Iriel(No game access, wild guess)
19:01.48krkasays shoot in my spell book
19:01.51kremontethe spell cast name is Shoot, but the attack is called Shoot Wand
19:01.59krkait finds the slot ok, so that's not the problem
19:02.07kremonteie CastSpellByName("Shoot"); Your Shoot Wand hits Rabbit for 85.
19:02.20IrielAh, that'd explain the confusion then.
19:02.42krkafixed it!
19:02.49IrielTry IsAutoRepeatAction

19:07.37Beladonaforces stupid users to look
19:07.52TainYeah, after I try to figure out why I'm getting errors on login.
19:08.09Beladonaunless your addon uses the global Saved Vars
19:08.14Beladonathen you lose it
19:08.25IrielAn in that case, you deserved to lose it. (If you wrote the addon)
19:08.29Beladonaaye
19:08.31IrielOr you shouldn't use the addon (If someone else did)
19:08.34TainSo wait they didn't change the toc number
19:08.41Beladonaof course not

19:10.28IrielBeladona : Are you sure you can't get it to the patch point via RDP?
19:10.44BeladonaI can try, but it won't run dx programs
19:11.03IrielBeladona : Oh.
19:11.15TainBeladona: I just logged in but I don't see any patch exe
19:11.26Beladonait is only there when you download it
19:11.33BeladonaBNUpdate deletes it when it is done patching
19:11.52Beladonaso the enxt question is, anyone here NOT run the aptcher yet?
19:11.57Beladona*patcher*
19:11.57IrielI haven't

19:13.02IrielYeah, at least 8-9 hours before i'm patching anything
19:13.22IrielUnless I get really bored later and set up VPN routing for my work machine
19:13.47Beladonasee now
19:13.58Beladonathis is why I think they should move the patch checking mechanism to the launcher
19:14.02Beladona=)
19:14.22Beladonaleave the check in the exe as well, just in case someone bypasses the launcher, but
19:14.27Shouryuucheck if it's uploaded on internet?

19:24.39TainThe way functions are added to buttons there is... well let's just say it's incompatible with Visor.
19:24.46id`i know
19:24.47TainOr, more to the point would overwrite normal functionality.
19:24.55krkano help from me with that version, it's completely unfriendly and alpha
19:25.02id`but the button templates themselves are sexyyyy
19:25.04Shouryuuanyone here ver get logged on the forums as Anonymous or Beta Tester?
19:25.29krkabutton templates? those are copied from ActionButton.xml O_O
19:25.33TainReally I've just been thinking of adding a Visor module to do button coloring like that but let you specify only the buttons you want checked (or all)
19:26.06krkaI _think_ I can differentiate between energy, mana and rage too... showing different colors for mana cost
19:26.12krka(rage is red, energy is yellow)
19:26.55krkanot tested that though
19:28.34kremonteShouryuu: it's because you're french

19:52.40Kremonteyea i havent played in 2 weeks
19:52.59Kremontesaw snowmen in IF this morning, so i didnt think
19:53.00Natasemeh i got 2 bank alts that are 100% full on Snowballs,  i gona start selling them around July
19:53.34Natasemahhh i should have known your one of them slowwwww people (alliance)
19:53.53krkaid` find anything useful?
19:53.54Kremonteand you play an undead priest, how cliche
19:54.53Natasemlol i started off as a Dorf Hunter back in week one of retail made it to 60 in like the first monnth then got sick of the kids (attitudes and maturity levels) of the Alliance and went Horde
19:55.14BeladonaI think it would be funny as hell if those snowballs started to melt around spring
19:55.20Kremonteso you're judging me by that?
19:55.21Natasemlol
19:55.23Lebannenoh dear... anyone else get a blizzard_inspectui out of date message?  Ooooops :)
19:55.30KremonteBeladona: banks have refridgerators!
19:55.34Beladonahaha
19:55.38Natasemqft^^
19:55.48id`krka, yep :D
19:55.51Kremontei still have 3 stacks of halloween candy in the bank
19:55.58Kremontehasnt stuck to my runecloth yet
19:56.00BeladonaLebannen, run the repair.exe
19:56.17Natasemnow my holloween candy disapeared, i think some rogue Ninjaed it, but i still have my wands
19:56.20BeladonaMac doesn't have a repair utility?
19:56.22krkalike what?
19:56.30Lebannennot that I've seen
19:56.36LebannenWhat does the repair utility do?
19:57.01Natasemwell thats what ya get lebannen for useing a mac, go *NIX instead
19:57.15Natasem:P
19:57.18Lebannen:p
19:57.45Natasemhttp://www.blizzard.com/support/wow/?id=aww01669p
19:57.46TainThat is sort of a funny statement.
19:58.02Beladonahaha
19:58.09Beladonaisn't Mac based on unix?
19:58.13Beladona0.o
19:58.16TainYes Beladona.
19:58.20Kremontesure is
19:58.37id`krka, I'm trying to make it OO to practise :O
19:58.39Beladonaand Mac is supported by blizzard to boot
19:58.41Natasemi know thats why i said it
19:58.44Beladona*nix isn't
19:58.46krkaah
19:58.50Beladonaoh
19:58.54Lebannenhmm, repair utility does sound handy... the current mac corruption advice is to go reinstall the game
19:58.59KremonteNote: The utility is currently only available for Windows systems
19:59.04krkathe Spell and Custom objects already are
19:59.07Beladonathats kinda sad
19:59.23Kremontenative WoW, NOW!
19:59.27Beladonarun linux
19:59.37Kremontehuh, Beladona ?
19:59.45Natasemi wonder what kind of box blizzard uses to run their wow,  you think it is a nix server?
19:59.48BeladonaI can make repair.exe work
20:00.04KremonteNatasem: likely
20:00.13Beladonathought I read or heard somewhere it was a custom linux distro
20:00.15Kremontectcp version forums.worldofwarcraft.com
20:00.17Kremontedang!
20:00.18Kremonte=P
20:00.36Natasemwell if so then they shouldn't be haveing so many dam problems and they should support Linux / BSD
20:01.00Beladonablizzard has historically only supported win/mac
20:01.02TainThere's a huge difference betwen client and server.
20:01.05KremonteWoW on PPC! =D =D =D
20:01.16Kremontehay dude wat u doin on ur pda? grinding!
20:01.26Natasemlol ^^
20:02.01Kremontei can imagine someone jumping up in history going "DING! 60!"
20:02.05NatasemNix users shouldn't have to port of a game that is run off a nix based system, it just doesn't make sence
20:02.16id`lua tables have indices right?
20:02.17NatasemLOL
20:02.22id`how do i push something into the table?
20:02.24TainWhat makes you think that the client is developed on a unix based system?
20:02.26IrielLua tables have keys
20:02.36IrielYou can use them as 'arrays' or as 'associative arrays'
20:02.37Kremontetable.insert?
20:02.45NatasemBeladonathought I read or heard somewhere it was a custom linux distro
20:02.47id`Iriel, was looking for that
20:02.51IrielIf you're using numeric integer keys starting at 1, then you can use table.insert
20:02.53id`Kremonte, thanks
20:02.57id`k
20:03.00Irieltable.insert(tableName, newValue)
20:03.30IrielJust note you can't screw around with the contents yourself if you're using table.insert and table.remove (Unless you're willing to pay attention and use table.setn properly as well)
20:03.43IrielFor arbitrary keys you just do tableName[keyValue] = value
20:04.00KremonteFurthermore, a Blizzard Employee just said in their forums at Battle.net that World of Warcraft Server has a Dual-processor and runs on .... Linux OS ^_^
20:04.04TainThe WoW servers might run on linux (I have no idea) but that has nothing at all to do with what the clients are capable of running. There's no corrolation whatsoever.
20:04.05krka(unless you never use getn in the first place)
20:04.07Kremontehttp://www.linuxforums.org/forum/t15448-sign-the-world-of-warcraft-on-linux-petition.html
20:04.12id`they are supposed to take care of themselves, Iriel :-]
20:04.41Irieltables in lua do "just work"
20:04.49Lebannensupporting linux might be a bit of a beast
20:04.52Irielit's just that table.insert/remove/setn/getn all work together
20:05.35Kremonteit shouldn't be THAT much work, if they just port the osx ver
20:05.45Irielthe linux problem is that there are so many versions/distros
20:05.55Irieltech support is more or less impossible
20:06.05Lebannenand fast opengl on different cards is a bit tricky iirc
20:06.10krkauhm... the distros don't differ THAT much
20:06.18krkayou can pretty much use the same binary everywhere
20:06.25TainYou can't just port the osx version to linux.
20:06.34KremonteTain: ?
20:06.35Tainkrka but there's different gl drivers, different gl cards, etc.
20:06.45krkaso what? same thing with windows
20:06.48TainOSX has a graphic layer that is alwys the same.
20:06.54TainThere's an extraction layer tha thandles it.
20:07.05krkaOpenGL? SDL?
20:07.07TainThere's no unified gl exraction layer for "linux" in general.
20:07.46Tain*could* it be done?  Yes.  It isn't as simple as people seem to think just because OSX is BSD based.
20:08.34TainIt also wouldn't be a Linux version.  It would be a Linux version as long as you're running a specific type of gl implementation.
20:08.40Natasemit's not like blizz doesn't have enough money to do it though
20:08.53krkai don't follow about the gl implementation
20:08.56Beladonathey could require a minimum version for x, the glx libs, and require Direct Rendering
20:08.56TainWhy should they throw money at something that won't make them money?
20:09.00krkaisn't opengl a good enough layer?
20:09.07Beladonaother games have done it successfully
20:09.15BeladonaUnreal Tournament comes to mind
20:09.17TainOf course they have.  It can be done.
20:09.18Natasemi am sure it would make alot more money
20:09.26TainWhy do you say that, Natasem?
20:09.36KremonteTain: they wouldn't make money?
20:09.39Kremontewhy wouldn't they?
20:09.40Natasemthey would be able to *tap* more of the market, they
20:09.52TainThe amount of linux desktops able to run WoW isn't large comparatively speaking.
20:09.53BeladonaI have heard a LOT of linux users who claim they ONLY keep windows around now for wow
20:09.59Natasemwould be able to be played on all OS's basicly
20:11.30MaldiviaLinux is still a very small niche marked, especially when it comes to gaming
20:11.30krkaI don't keep it around even for that :)
20:11.30BeladonaI doubt it would be "un-profitable" to port it
20:11.30TainA lot of linux users isn't squat compared to millions of subscribers.
20:11.30Kremontehttp://www.blizzpub.net/petition/
20:11.30Kremonte22080 people
20:11.30Kremontethat doesn't = $?
20:11.30TainOnline petitions are hardly reliable.
20:11.30BeladonaTain, that millions of subscribers is already split between windows and mac
20:11.31TainYes, 90% Windows.
20:11.31Maldiviawell, considering the 22k, that probably 21.5k are already subscribers, and playing on their Wine or Windows - not a real profit
20:11.31NatasemTain write a letter to Linux or BSD mag's and see if you get a responce
20:11.32BeladonaI bet at least 20% of that 90% is linux capable and would like the port
20:11.32Kremontebuying the game again, Maldivia
20:11.40Beladonaefinitely at least 10
20:11.40TainIt doesn't really matter what you or I think, do you think that Blizzard didn't do market research to find out if it would be profitible?
20:11.40Kremonteagreed@beladona
20:11.44Beladonathat alone warrants as much attention as Mac
20:11.56MaldiviaKremonte: why should I buy the game again, I already own it?
20:12.05Beladonayou wouldn't
20:12.09Maldiviaexactly
20:12.10TainYou wouldn't?
20:12.11Beladonathey would provide a linux installer
20:12.22TainWhy would they provide you something for free that cost them extra money to develop?
20:12.26BeladonaDoom3 recently released theirs
20:12.27Maldiviayeah - so no profit from retail sales
20:12.33Beladonaso?
20:12.33Natasemit's not the buying the game that brings in the money it's the monthly subscription
20:12.34KremonteTain: you don't realize the boom in linux gaming?
20:12.46Kremonteif you really think linux is a small minority that's far from true
20:12.47TainFrom an overall gaming industry standpoint, nope.
20:13.08TainLook at overall game sales.
20:13.09CelandroI'd like a way to make a boot cd that loaded linux and ran WoW + a browser so I could just put the cd and restart my computer
20:13.16Maldiviathe linux gaming marked is smaller than the Mac market
20:13.18TainThen look at installed Linux base period.
20:13.21KremonteTain: game scales are skewed
20:13.22Beladonapersonally I think wow would be easy to port
20:13.26Kremontebecause the games don't exist for linux
20:13.28TainNever mind ones capabile of actually running games.
20:13.45TainThat might be true Kremonte but it doesn't dismiss the sales numbers.
20:14.01Beladonathe linux install base is a lot bigger than you think
20:14.09TainRemember people can run Linux on systems much less powerful than Windows, especially graphics-wise.
20:14.13TainNo it isn't, Beladona.
20:14.15Beladonathe problem is that most linux users also use windows at least in limited form
20:14.18Kremonteyes it is, Tain
20:14.20krkadon't underestimate the value of keeping customers happy
20:14.21Lebannenbut a good proportion of that linux install base already run WoW, so the advantage of a port is lessened
20:14.33Kremonteyup. that's why so many linux users have a windows install. to play games
20:14.35GeometrixCel, theroeticly thats posible to do
20:14.52Lebannenor use Wine or whatever the gaming equivalent is (cedega?)
20:14.55Kremonteyou can't really get an actual # of linux users who have windows to play games on
20:14.59Beladonathe problem isn't the size of the market
20:15.33Kremontehmm i wonder if i should order some ubuntu CDs
20:15.35BeladonaLebannen, that argument is pretty baseless
20:15.50LebannenBeladona: how come?
20:15.50Beladonait is the same argument that many companies use to get out of doing things
20:16.07Beladonathey can do it with a hack, so why bother?
20:16.07TainWhen it makes companies money to do Linux versions, they will.
20:16.21CelandroGeo: I know its possible.. would be a nice way to give people a very safe guaranteed no-trojan WoW
20:16.26BeladonaTain
20:16.26KremonteTain: money won't be made if nobody makes the games for linux
20:16.43BeladonaUT makes plenty of money simply by making their installs cross-platform
20:16.46TainI don't disagree with that statement at all, Kremonte.
20:16.53Maldiviawell, there's Quake, Unreal Tournament, Bioware games etc
20:16.54TainBut it doesn't make any difference.
20:17.01Geometrixthe Only issue I see with it ... is that a CD is ROM, and wow might have issues on logout with savedvars/WTF/WDB ...
20:17.09LebannenBeladona: but it's a valid argument... businesses are driven by RoI.  The return is greater if you pick up customers after performing a task.  If the task isn't really necessary because your customers are doing it another way, the RoI is significantly decreased
20:17.31Celandrogeo: I would still install WoW onto your regular hard disk partition
20:17.35Celandroand patches would got here too
20:17.37TainQuake I think is a special case only because they're a smaller development house (compared to Blizzard for example) with people who want to make Linux versions because of their love of it.
20:17.39Celandrogo there
20:17.43LebannenUT and other games of that ilk have the advantage of linux-supporting members on their coding teams
20:17.45Beladonaa linux port would be pretty easy to perform
20:17.50LebannenLook at Loki...
20:18.01Geometrixnah, just have wow/WTF wow/WDB symlinked to your regular drive... ;)
20:18.09TainLoki is a good, and bad example.  Loki was too soon.
20:18.11Kremontein a matter of figures, how much money would it actually be just to port the game?
20:18.11MaldiviaTain: what about Neverwinter Nights, from Bioware - although it took then nearly a year to get the promised Linux version out
20:18.13Celandrothen you need a new CD after each patch
20:18.22Lebannentrue Tain
20:18.23Celandroand I dont think all of WoW would fit on a single cd anyhow
20:18.24Geometrixheh ... CD's are cheap
20:18.31Geometrixit wouldnt...
20:18.41TainDid Bioware publish numbers on how many linux clients ran Neverwinter Nights?
20:18.41Geometrixwould have to be a DVD
20:18.53Tain(I'm actually curious, I did play and tried beta clients.)
20:19.05LebannenI believe WoW *did* have a linux version at one point, actually
20:19.13BeladonaI know linux wouldn't match windows for client base
20:19.16Beladonanot evne close
20:19.19Beladonabut it would match mac
20:19.42TainI don't think so Beladona.  But I can't qualify it with numbers so it doesn't matter.
20:20.05Geometrixall I know is that a portion of my guild runs WoW on linux boxes and swears by it ...
20:20.09BeladonaI think too many people play down the numbers
20:20.13TainI'm thinking actual install base that would/could run WoW.
20:20.16Beladonaeveryone thinks it is less than it is
20:20.32Celandrothe whole idea is to have an iso blizzard could provide that you burn and it would let you load a very stripped down "blizzard linux distro" which would only play blizzard games + a file browser
20:20.36GeometrixLinux + Cedega + WoW ... you can strip the OS down to the barebones needed to run and have a screamin fast WoW Machien ...
20:20.39Kremontei think too many people are under the pretense that linux has the same userbase as 3 years ago
20:20.54Beladonaaye
20:21.05Kremontelinux gaming is a catch 22 imo
20:21.15TainYou're assuming a lot though, Beladona.  I don't think the Linux install base is less than it is.  I am very much active in Linux communities and have been running Linux of one form or another since around 2004
20:21.25Kremontefor companies to make games they want the playerbase, but the playerbase will never form if nobody makes games
20:21.25Beladonait will take someone big promoting linux games to make it mainstream
20:21.41krkalinux gaming wont happen before linux becomes mainstream
20:21.48Kremontekrka: linux is mainstream
20:21.56Celandrohonestly there is 0 reason to make linux games if linux + cedega works
20:22.01TainMainstream isn't really the right word.
20:22.01Kremonteif blizzard ports a big game such as WoW to linux, more games in the future would be able to profit more; ie games by blizzard
20:22.06BeladonaI disagree
20:22.07KremonteCelandro: there isn't?
20:22.11Celandroits extra coding effort
20:22.15Celandroand extra QA
20:22.20Beladonacedega was made BECAUSE linux games weren't being made
20:22.29Kremonte^^agree
20:22.38Beladonaand it doesn't work with 70% of the games out there
20:22.57GeometrixBeladona, and that in its self will stop the linux games from being made ... because now if theres demand for a game to run on linux, the company making it doesnt have to pay a cent to get support
20:23.04Celandrosure.. but now its here and works so please tell me how to convince Blizzard to spend $1M on a Linux port when you can already run WoW on linux
20:23.23KremonteCelandro: cedega doesn't run WoW on my computer well
20:23.35KremonteCelandro: cedega doesn't run steam on my notebook well
20:23.35BeladonaSOME can
20:23.38Beladonanot all
20:23.41Kremontecedega isn't perfect. a port would be
20:23.58Beladonaand $1M seems abit large
20:24.06Kremonte$1m for a linux port?
20:24.08Celandrofor development, qa and support?
20:24.09Kremontethat seems farfetched
20:24.12Beladonavery
20:24.15CelandroI dont think its farfetched
20:24.17Kremontewhy would support be different?
20:24.27Beladonait would be the same it is now
20:24.30Kremontemost of the support for WoW comes from the playerbase
20:24.35Celandrotheyd need people who could handle linux questions
20:24.43Kremonteie the playerbase
20:24.44GeometrixKremonte, no it wouldnt, the issue with Linux, is that its not ... static ... theres no way to know which kernelversion which for of which video drivers ect people will make, so a port would never be perfect ...
20:24.47Beladonayou are forgetting something
20:24.47Celandroits not the same.. it would be additional hires
20:24.55KremonteGeometrix: make a requirement
20:24.55krkai bet bliz could get some genius hacker volunteer to port it
20:25.05Beladonamost people that run linux are 10 times smarter than point and click windows users
20:25.06Geometrixgames are a whole diffrent beast from office apps ...
20:25.06TainYou still have to look at how many WoW capable Linux systems there are, and how of those how many of those people would actually buy WoW. (or game X)
20:25.13Beladonathe support requirements wouldn't be hard
20:25.27Kremontesupport would be a non-issue imo
20:25.33Kremonteas is cedega, wine, etc
20:25.36TainRemember that one of the core reasons that people run Linux is for free (as in beer and as in speech) software.
20:25.43TainWhich commercial games are neither.
20:25.49Kremonteas is cedega
20:25.55Kremonteand people DO buy things for linux
20:25.55Shouryuurawr
20:25.59Beladonathat doesn't mean they won't run commercial products
20:26.01Gryphenono i esceared of teh rawr! i need a huggle.
20:26.06KremonteShouryuu: shoe dragon!
20:26.19CelandroI still think the best way to go about it is to get a free ISO boot disk that you would burn to a disk, restart your computer and it would automatically find all the games installed on your windows partition that it could support and give you a list of them to choose from
20:26.27Beladonai run linux because I prefer it. I would buy it if it cost money
20:26.33Shouryuuhaha
20:26.33Celandroand a web browser
20:26.38KremonteCelandro: windows partition?
20:26.46TainI wouldn't, Beladona.  I'd run FreeBSD. :)
20:26.48Kremontei think that's the issue we're pointing at =)
20:26.53Celandrosure.. which for 99% of the userbase would be the entire C drive
20:27.14Kremontei don't get what you're talking about
20:27.16ShouryuuI run windows because it's the only thing I know!
20:27.23CelandroIf I cant give it to my wife and have her do it, its useless
20:27.27Kremontewe, or i, have been arguing that windows should NOT be a requirement
20:27.33Shouryuuactualy, running linux could be a good idea
20:27.38BeladonaCelandro, Live CD distributions aren't nearly fast enough to play games effectively
20:27.48ShouryuuI could get to the net, IRC and all, without the fear of wasting my time playing games...
20:27.52GeometrixI run windows, because I'm a lazy american slob who doesnt feel like dicking around with his linux box enough to get Cedega working... ;)
20:27.56KremonteShouryuu: ;)
20:28.11Shouryuuno seriously
20:28.15Kremontei know
20:28.22ShouryuuI'm such a computer addict it's saddening :P
20:28.24Kremontethat's why i support linux so much
20:28.33Celandroif you want people to try linux you need to make it very fast, very simple and fool proof
20:28.39TainI just use the right tool for the job.  Or, the right tool I have for the job.
20:28.42ShouryuuI'm 18, in paris and I spent ALL my holiday doing what? playing WoW or CS...
20:28.42KremonteCelandro:  why?
20:28.52Celandrobecause they wont bother otherwise
20:28.57KremonteCelandro:  why not?
20:28.58Shouryuutrue dat
20:29.02Shouryuuwe are lazy
20:29.04Kremontelinux isn't windows
20:29.08Celandroeveryone is lazy
20:29.15Kremontei am not lazy when it comes to my computer
20:29.34Beladonathere are purchaseable linux distros that have that Celandro
20:29.35Kremonteyou're making a judged assumption of everyone, because you use windows, and you know a guy who uses cedega?
20:29.37Shouryuupeople don't like change
20:29.43Shouryuuwe are slaves to our nesting instincts
20:29.44Celandrowhat I want is a boot cd that turns a computer into the equivalent of an XBOX with a browser
20:29.53KremonteCelandro: that's not a linux port of WoW....
20:29.57Celandronope
20:30.00Shouryuulol
20:30.03Beladonathere are Live CDs that you can download for that
20:30.08Celandrostill wow running on linux though
20:30.11Kremonteso that defeats the purpose completely
20:30.15KremonteCelandro: it eliminates the purpose
20:30.19Beladonabut again, running an OS from a CD isn't going to be as fast as the installed version
20:30.23Kremontei keep windows around because i have to boot it up to play games
20:30.31Kremonteso a livecd of linux that can play WoW
20:30.34Celandroit can install to the hard drive at first boot
20:30.34Kremontemakes me..boot it up to play games...
20:30.36Celandroyes
20:30.43Kremontewhich completely defeats the purpose!
20:30.55Kremontethat's not a linux port of WoW at all. that's even more farfetched, as it would cost even MORE money to do that
20:31.09Kremontebecause it would not only be making a WoW port, but making an entire distrobution on that concept
20:31.21Beladonayou are basically talking about creating an environment capable of gaming, that anyone can use
20:31.24Celandrono, I think it would be faster to make a good user friendly cedega live cd
20:31.25Celandroyes
20:31.27Beladonaisn't that what cedega already does?
20:31.38Kremontefaster? i havent been talking about speed here
20:31.53Kremonteive been talking about the code of the game, modified so it can run on my computer
20:31.55Celandropeoples computers have a ton of spyware and other crap on them
20:31.56Kremontewithout the need to reboot
20:32.10Kremontepeoples? i haven't had spyware or a virus in more than a year
20:32.20Celandroonce people are running off of live cd type things then you can convince the developers to code a native port
20:32.31Kremontei think this judgement you are doing on everyubodies part is rather rude
20:32.32Beladonapeople want computers so that they can do a wide variety of things on them
20:32.36TainIt hasn't worked that way yet though, Celandro
20:32.41Shouryuukraimonteuh - You know how to use your computer, most don't
20:32.43Beladonaif they wanted a gaming box, they would go and buy and xbox or a ps2
20:32.46TainIt is a good theory, but it doesn' tmean it will happen.
20:32.54Shouryuuagreed tain
20:32.58KremonteShouryuu: so i get penalized?
20:33.14Celandromaybe
20:33.15Shouryuuno, you don't get spyware or viruses, which is a good thing :p
20:33.16TainWhat it also can say is, "Look they're running on Linux anyway and we didn't have to spend any extra money to do it.  Cool."
20:33.24Kremonteall i want is an iso, a cd, or an installer, that i could buy or download
20:33.32Kremonteto play WoW on my ubuntu install
20:33.51Beladonathat is the same argument ATI has ussed for years to explain why their drivers still fail to support much of the features people have wanted for so long
20:33.57Celandrothe userbase for linux isnt high enough to justify it
20:33.59KremonteBeladona: lol
20:34.02Beladonayou can do it now, you just need hacks
20:34.02KremonteCelandro: yes it is
20:34.11Celandroyou think it is, they think it isnt
20:34.16Celandrothey are the ones spending the money
20:34.17Beladonaall that does is make the developer look like an ass, and sends the person to another vendor
20:34.18KremonteCelandro: and you know this?
20:34.25KremonteBeladona: cedega doesn't run WoW well, wine doesn't run WoW well (for me) =/
20:34.29Celandrobecause if they thought it was worth it, it would exist
20:34.43Kremonteugh... we've already said this
20:34.44Tainyeah, but ATI also won't work with other Linux developers to give them information to make drivers.  So they're just asses.
20:34.59Beladonaaye
20:35.23Kremontebiggest catch 22 i've seen...
20:35.24*** join/#wowi-lounge Depherios (n=Deph@67.189.88.161)
20:35.33BeladonaI still say a linux port would be pretty damn easy to do, and patches equally so
20:35.47MaldiviaTain: yeah, ATi is annoying for that...
20:35.57Maldiviaespecially since it would mean FreeBSD drivers aswell
20:36.08Beladonalua would run easily
20:36.16TainA linux port *might* be easy to do for the code, I do think it's still the graphics system that's the problem.
20:36.23Beladonathe only issue they see is the graphics engine
20:36.26krkai dont see why
20:36.28Beladonawhich would probably need to be opengl
20:36.29Kremonteyup, as far as ati users =/
20:36.33krkadont wow already use opengl?
20:36.36Beladonabut then they would need to fix opengl in wow
20:36.41Beladonait can
20:36.46Beladonawow.exe -opengl
20:36.48Shouryuuman I'm seriously considering going to linux
20:36.52Beladonabut it has bugs even in windows
20:36.53Maldiviayeah, the Mac OpenGL implementation should be somewhat easy to port to Linux
20:37.05KremonteShouryuu: do it =) you can dual boot (resize ntfs partition) and you have the whole world to help you
20:37.16TainBut that still means that you have to have Linux systems that are already configured to use OpenGL with graphics cards that can use OpenGL.
20:37.21Maldiviafrom my understanding of the mac opengl interface, that is
20:37.25Beladonapersonally I think ubuntu is a very easy to setup starter distro
20:37.32ShouryuuI think I am going to, my PC needs a clean up anyways :P
20:37.40Beladonaand you can try a live cd if you are afraid to dual boot at first
20:37.41KremonteTain: you can't run WoW on windows with no 3d accel either...
20:37.54MaldiviaTain: well, most "dummy instalation" dists already have opengl installed/activated by defaull
20:37.59IrielI dont understand where this idea of live boot linux + wow came in?
20:38.03IrielThat's just silly
20:38.07KremonteIriel: yea lol
20:38.08Beladonaagreed
20:38.17IrielThat's running wow in linux for the sake of running wow in linux.
20:38.28Maldiviahehe, yeah
20:38.46TainKremonte, yes and let's say for sake of argument that the percentage of Windows install base without opengl capable cards is the same as the percentage of installed Linux base for the same.
20:38.49Celandroyou havent had to fix your relatives computers much Im guessing
20:38.52Tain(Which I personally think is a stretch.)
20:38.52Kremonteonce i can play WoW on linux all nice and well, i'll have 190gb more to use =D
20:38.58KremonteCelandro: i have. that's all i do for money
20:39.00id`krka, krkaUtilsTooltip, where is this? :P
20:39.01Beladonaand the performance would be akin to running a marathon with a dwarf punching your balls
20:39.03Kremontei fix computers
20:39.11Celandrooh god no wonder you are so crabby :P (jk)
20:39.18TainYou're cutting down even more on the ones that even CAN run it.
20:39.23Kremonteoh, it gets me sure cranky Celandro. lol
20:39.29BeladonaKremonte, what kind of issues have you had?
20:39.35Kremonteas far as?
20:39.40Beladonawow + linux
20:39.55krkaid` a tooltip used for looking up spells and buffs
20:39.57Kremontesmoothly running = 2fps, with spikes of 3's and 4's
20:40.06Beladonaouch
20:40.07TainIf you were to take full Linux home desktop install base then you could make an argument.  But you're talking about a percentage of those that would even run WoW.
20:40.15Beladonamine runs as fast as windows
20:40.17Kremontemac OSX is based on BSD, right?
20:40.23id`krka, yes i know, but where is it :>
20:40.30Geometrixkrem, yes it is
20:40.32krkain krkaUtils.xml
20:40.34IrielOnce intel based macs take off
20:40.44TainYes it is, based on BSD with uniform hardware.
20:40.44id`ah ok
20:40.47TainWhich is the key.
20:40.56Kremontethen it's not possible to port it to another BSD platform and make OS-dependant parts open source?
20:40.56IrielI think there's more hope for a cedega equiv for mac software
20:41.24Kremontethe reason i don't like cedega, is that SOME applications work, for SOME users, SOME of the time
20:41.55Geometrixkrem, welcome to the world of opensource ... if your hardwares not the same as the development hardware you might have issues ...
20:42.03KremonteGeometrix: wha?
20:42.08Beladonawell cedega wasn't designed to be a fullproof solution
20:42.19KremonteBeladona: that's my point =) i can't rely on cedega to run WoW
20:42.29IrielSo pay for windows 8-)
20:42.34BeladonaI like cedega, but in a way it hurts linux
20:42.40Geometrixthats my experiance with opensource stuff like Cedega ... if your system isnt setup the same as the development box, you might run into issues...
20:42.40Kremontei have windows, but that means i have to constantly reboot
20:42.45Kremonteand when i'm playing WoW, i can do nothing else
20:42.55Beladonathat is when you compile it yourself Geo
20:42.59KremonteGeometrix: beladona has almost the same exact PC as i do
20:43.03IrielEventually you'll reach the point when you can afford to just buy 2 pc's
20:43.04Beladonaso that it IS compiled for your box
20:43.05MaldiviaTain: Mac OS isn't based on uniform hardware support... Apple is VERY strict with what hardware they choose to support
20:43.07Kremonteand the same configuration -_-
20:43.17Tainerm That was my point, Maldivia
20:43.19KremonteIriel: not enough desk space =P
20:43.27MaldiviaTain: hmm, ok - then I misunderstood you :)
20:43.37IrielKremonte : Buy smaller cases
20:43.42KremonteIriel: 2 monitors
20:43.48Kremontenot a very big case
20:43.49pagefaultcedega will be obsolete pretty soon
20:43.52pagefaultwine has caught up a lot
20:43.59Beladonalets hope
20:44.16IrielA/B input switches on monitors, or differently stacked monitors!
20:44.17pagefaultI run WoW in wine, I find it runs faster than cedega
20:44.28BeladonaI find wine works less often than cedega
20:44.28IrielWindows above, linux below, or whatever
20:44.32TainWell maybe someone will do a fully .NET game soon and you can run it with Mono or DotGNU. :)
20:44.32Beladonafor running wow
20:44.34Kremontestack monitors? yeek that's a pain waiting to happen
20:44.39Kremonteand i base my system around 2 monitors =P
20:44.48MaldiviaTain: please, no!
20:44.57Kremontebut still, i have a windows notebook (and i have synergy set up to use it) but that's still not a 'solution' imo
20:44.58pagefaultwell there is a bug in WoW that prevents it from working in wine without a patch
20:45.07Kremontei want it to run with everything else
20:45.11pagefaultbut if you patch your wine to work around it, it will run good
20:45.11Beladonaright
20:45.16Beladonacedega doesn't need that patch
20:45.24pagefaultwell cedega has the patch
20:45.27pagefaultit's just hardcoded into it
20:45.33Beladonaand that patch causes problems for other things you try to run in wine
20:45.49BeladonaI use wine for normal applications
20:45.55Beladonacedega for gaming
20:45.57Beladonaits a good combo
20:46.07krkatheres only one yeti place in hillsbrad right?
20:46.14Kremonteyes
20:46.18Beladonafar as I recall
20:46.20Shouryuuyup
20:46.26Kremontebest place for grinding
20:46.32Beladonaits a good place to get jumped if you are on a pvp server
20:46.34Kremonte30-31 in an hour and a half on warrior ^^
20:46.36Beladona=)
20:46.43Kremonteheh, i log my lock there
20:47.39Beladonaanyway, I know Blizz will likely never do a linux port. If anything wine and cedega will develop to the point where it just works regardless
20:47.59Kremontecouldnt hurt to try for one though
20:48.04Beladonayeah
20:48.19Kremontetill then im stuck switching USB cables every 5 minutes to play WoW on my notebook
20:48.27BeladonaI would be itnerested to know how many of the dev have tried, or do play wow on linux
20:48.41BeladonaUSB cables?
20:48.47Kremontekeyboard/mouse
20:48.50Beladonabuy new ones?
20:48.52Kremontemouse doesnt work right with synergy
20:48.57Kremontethey don't fit on the same desk, heh
20:49.01Beladonaahh
20:49.10Beladonasee I can fit 10 computers in my room
20:49.19Kremontei can fit about 1 more tshirt into my room
20:49.21Kremontethen i run out of air
20:49.24Beladonahaha
20:49.38Shouryuulol
20:49.46BeladonaI used to run lan parties, and I need to start again
20:49.50IrielI do know slouken used to work for loki
20:50.00Irielso i'm sure he'd love to see a linux port.
20:50.10BeladonaI bet a lot of dev would
20:50.11IrielBut I think he's more of a server guy than a client guy, most of the time.
20:50.18Kremonteslouken needs to be a covert op programmer/server/ui dude
20:50.33KremonteBeladona: where do you live? =P
20:50.40IrielKremonte : get a USB A/B switch
20:50.44Beladonamy guess is a linux port has been brought up, and like Tain said, management felt it wasn't worth the effort
20:50.54KremonteIriel: i would, but i have a total of $6 right now =P
20:50.56IrielKremonte : I have 6 desktops in my room, 5 of which share the same USB keyboard and mouce

20:51.46id`i have 1 laptop wich barely plays wow gg

20:52.06IrielThey just get re-tasked to something else
20:52.08TainOr actually there's one sure way for linux to jump into real contention.
20:52.20Beladonapeople always ask why I have so many computers doing so many things
20:52.21TainThe one thing that has truly driven technology in the last 20 years.

20:58.14Tainheh which one, Beladona?
20:58.24Kremontexorg7?
20:58.28Beladonacan't remember the official name
20:58.30Beladonayeah
20:58.34Kremonteor 6.9
20:58.36BeladonaI mean the name of the compositor
20:58.37Tainxorg, xr11
20:58.47Kremonteoh
20:58.52Beladonait isn't enabled by default though
20:58.54Beladonayet
20:59.13Beladonait is supposedly more stable tthan xcompmgr though
20:59.15krkaseems pretty sweet, but I haven't tried it
21:00.38Kremontemy 8 year old little sister just installed ubuntu, haha
21:01.02Beladonalol
21:01.10BeladonaDapper drake looks good
21:01.21BeladonaI installed it under vmware and it was actually pretty fast
21:01.30Beladonaeven on limited emulated hardware
21:01.41Kremontemm
21:01.45Kremontei think im gonna wait till stable
21:01.49Beladoname 2
21:02.01krkaid` I had a right end? O_o
21:02.02BeladonaI almost did a dist-upgrade ysterday, but I was afraid it would break wow
21:02.06Kremontehm, what wm do you use Beladona ?
21:02.12krkawhat were you looking at btw, krkaUtils or krkaButtons?
21:02.12id`krka, haha :D:D
21:02.15Beladonametacity for now
21:02.18krkakrkaButtons should be easier to understand
21:02.21id`buttons first
21:02.22BeladonaI wasn't happy with the others
21:02.27Kremontei think im gonna install enlightenment
21:02.32krkaGnome ftw!
21:02.32Beladonaeach one has something small I didn't care for
21:02.42BeladonaGnome isn't a wm
21:02.43IrielMetacity has its share of issues also, sadly
21:02.45krkaah sorry
21:02.53Beladonayeah
21:02.53id`theres an AceTooltip so i was thinking to use that to grab the tooltip data
21:02.55krkaI use gnu/linux/gnome/metacity then
21:02.59id`i use wmii as my wm
21:03.01id`else screen
21:03.04BeladonaI absolutely hate the "black line" shit it does
21:03.07Irielincluding my favorite gripes of poor event handling under load
21:03.27Kremontekrka: metacity comes before gnome ;)
21:03.31Kremontegenerally
21:03.39krkai cant get anything right today :(
21:03.48Kremonteit's okay, i'm always wrong
21:03.55Kremontein fact, i was wrong just now
21:03.59IrielBeladona : You mean with cursors on ATI?
21:04.00Maldiviaid, you mentioned wimp before... around the same time, someone posted this link in another channel: http://www.wimp.com/invasion/
21:04.21BeladonaI like xfwm4
21:04.30Beladonabut I don't like the theme handling
21:05.28BeladonaIriel: no, when you minimize a window, it leaves the outline of the window on your desktop, and draws it minimizing
21:05.39Beladonalooks liek crap imho
21:05.45IrielBeladona : You can turn that off
21:05.48Beladonahow?
21:05.53IrielBeladona : I'm 99% sure you can, anyway
21:05.57IrielBeladona : One mo
21:06.06Beladonaif so that would rock
21:06.14Beladonaalthough xfwm4 is a faster wm
21:06.18Beladona0.o
21:06.23Kremontehmmm
21:06.33Kremontee17 or e16
21:06.38Beladonae16
21:06.44Beladonae17 is still development
21:06.49Beladonaand crashes
21:06.50Kremonteunstable rocks though
21:07.03Kremontei made a beta version airplane, and it crashed
21:07.11Kremontethe lighting effects on the fire were so realistic! it pwned!!!
21:07.52krkacould anyone here make a GUI for something if I wrote down how I wanted it?
21:07.56BeladonaI would be happy with a small, fast wm, with native composite extension, with window acceleration, and shadows
21:08.02Beladonanothing else
21:08.22Beladonaxfwm4 almost gets there, but alas the themes suck big time
21:08.24id`Maldivia, hahahahhahah
21:08.29KremonteBeladona: mine translating something to layman for me? =D
21:08.32Kremontethe nautilus desktop draws over the E17 tools, and E17 lacks virtual desktops or task switching that is compatible with Gnome
21:08.57Beladonaalso wow under cedega doesn't like composite features
21:08.59EndNET_WM? :P at least, I think that's what it is called
21:09.18Kremontethe nautilus desktop=? =X
21:09.32IrielAha!
21:09.34Kremonteoh hell, i can always undo it

21:12.18Beladonauhh
21:12.21Beladonawhoa
21:12.47Beladonathe minimize thing is fixed, but the wireframe outline is weird
21:13.26IrielYeah - it does more than one thing, which is mildly annoying
21:13.48Beladonawould be itneresting to see what it changes with that setting
21:15.21Beladonahot damn
21:15.26BeladonaI fixed it
21:15.54Beladonawith assistive technology on, and that reduced resources feature enabled, the wireframe thing is gone

21:29.30kremonteTo normal users, Metacity is the thing that “draws all of that black shit all over my desktop when I minimize apps.” Enlightenment is a Window Manager like Metacity, but it is not connected to Gnome

21:45.32Irielpng
21:45.34Iriel?
21:45.46Tainpng, tga
21:45.50futrtrublI'll try it. This is my first attempt at web design
21:46.10Irieltga's not widely supported tho
21:46.34Beladonapng, with crappy support by IE
21:46.43Beladonasupposed to be fixed in IE 7
21:46.45futrtrublfor png how do I do its transparency? alpha channel/transparent color/what?
21:46.52Beladonaalpha channel
21:46.55futrtrublk
21:47.06BeladonaIE doesn't support the alpha channel though
21:47.09Beladonaso be warned
21:47.11Beladona=P
21:47.16Beladonathe background will show gray
21:47.26futrtrublbugger. scrap that idea then
21:47.29Gryphenthere are work arounds though
21:47.38Beladonayeah
21:47.42Beladonashameless hacks mainly
21:47.51Gryphenya
21:47.51futrtrublyeah, blend the edges to my pages background
21:47.56Beladonano
21:47.59Gryphenwe use one on cosui.org
21:48.15Beladonayou can do CSS on png images that applies a microsoft filter that makes it work
21:48.32Beladonaor just apply the filter to that image if you only have one or two images
21:48.45Gryphenhttp://homepage.ntlworld.com/bobosola
21:49.02Beladonait runs slow if you have lots of png images though
21:49.16Gryphenya
21:49.17Beladonathe java hack does I mean
21:49.24futrtrublI could do that Beladona, only a few images. how do I go about it?
21:49.32Gryphenthat link
21:49.36Beladonagive your png images a sctyle
21:49.39Beladonastyle rather
21:49.43kremontewhen i go about web design, i just use transparent PNGs
21:49.51Beladonalemme find the ms transform
21:49.59kremonteGIF is too much of a hassle, and i can generate png on the fly... not my fault IE stinks =)
21:50.12Beladonathats fine for personal sites
21:50.20kremonteme? business? hah.
21:50.26Beladonabut sometimes you have to make a site that is accessible by all
21:50.33IrielThat's for IE5 anyway, doesn't IE6 work properly?
21:50.45Beladonano
21:50.45Gryphenno
21:50.48futrtrublI'm suprized a universal gif replacement is around yet
21:50.50Gryphenie7 works fine
21:50.52BeladonaIE6 still suffers from alpha degradation
21:50.56Beladonaie7 does
21:51.00kremontefutrtrubl: there's lots of solutions
21:51.06kremonteIE doesnt use any , though
21:51.16futrtrublnot very universal then ;']
21:51.23kremonteIE is quite the opposite
21:51.29kremontepngs are most definitely universal
21:51.49Beladonafutrtrubl
21:51.49futrtrublnot if ie still has problems

21:52.10kremontefutrtrubl, ie has never supported PNG, it doesn't even support HTML correctly
21:52.10futrtrublthanks Beladona
21:52.12Beladonaas soon as ie7 becomes mainstream, png is the way to go
21:52.15kremonteare you going to say html isn't universal? hah
21:53.27futrtrublhtml still mostly works. png does not work as a gif replacement in ie without work arounds (that's when I'm picking up from this conversation at least)

23:48.51OsagasuI miss Mage Hand
23:48.56OsagasuWhy was it removed? :(
23:49.12AnduinLotharWhatd it do?
23:49.26Cairennauto arrange your bag contents
23:49.28OsagasuIt rearranged your inventory
23:49.29PlorkyeranI seem to recall it never actually successfully doing anything
23:49.51Cairennbut when I last saw it (back during CB) it was buggy as all hell :p
23:49.54Corrodiaslol
23:50.05AnduinLotharheh, there are a bunch of other addons to do that. MageHand broke and no one wanted to fix it so it was dropped
23:50.13Corrodiaswhat is cosmos, all, exactly? a compilation plus customized layout?
23:50.13Plorkyeranit managed to generate a lot of script errors
23:50.47Cairennthat's a simplistic description Corrodias (from a 3rd party point of view)
23:50.51Plorkyerannowadays it's a compilation that has a lot of stuff made specifically for it
23:51.07Plorkyeranalthough most of them can be seperated from it
23:51.08Corrodiaswell, that's all i know about it. is there something more?
23:51.11Gryphenmost the addons make use of khaos for configuration
23:51.25Plorkyeranat some point it was supposed to be a mod framework, but I'm not sure how much they pursued that
23:51.34Gryphenthere isnt much for layout changes
23:51.43Gryphenother than making things mobile
23:52.11Corrodiasi hear it messes with your other addons if you don't have a "nopatch" file for them
23:52.19Gryphenonly if you choose to
23:52.22AnduinLotharit has a Developer Distrobustion of libraries you can use for a framework, but it's not as all encomassing as Ace as to a framework of programming style
23:53.11Plorkyeranone of the problems I had with cosmos for a long time is it hadn't really adjusted to the addon system
23:53.24AnduinLotharya... back in march...
23:53.47Plorkyeranfor a long time it felt like the expectation was that you would use cosmos, and nothing else
23:53.57AnduinLotharI came on in february and personally converted 90% of the framexml mods to Addons
23:54.23AnduinLotharyeah, the patcher was written in beta when there wasn't anythign else
23:54.39AnduinLotharit's being rewritten now, we didn't have a programmer before
23:54.57Cairennand you guys are getting rid of the .nopatch thing, right?
23:55.00Gryphenassuming it gets the ok
23:55.51AnduinLotharI wont be releaseing the specs till we have it written
23:55.52Plorkyeranthe patcher isn't the problem as much as the confusion about why the patcher had problems
23:55.52CairennThott does tend to be a bit obstinate, doesn't he?
23:56.07Cairennthat isn't a slam, merely an observation :p
23:56.24Gryphenno, just he doesnt actually do much with the cosmos team
23:56.29Corrodiasi don't want to use cosmos because i like putting together my own list of addons
23:56.44Corrodiaswill khaos work outside the context of.. well, whatever else is in there?
23:56.51Grypheni put together my own list of addons and cosmos
23:57.04Plorkyerankhaos doesn't do anything by itself
23:57.05Grypheni have 37 additional addons
23:57.08Cairennheh, my addon list changes on a daily basis
23:57.11Plorkyeranit's the thing other addons rely on :P
23:57.12AnduinLotharI think 50% of cosmos users or more add addons to Cosmos
23:57.39AnduinLotharWhich is fine, that is expected not
23:57.46AnduinLotharnow*
23:58.33Plorkyeranyeah, things have improved a lot
23:58.33AnduinLotharPro users like to tailor their collection, we don't do it for them. We just make a base to build from.
23:59.09PlorkyeranI stopped using cosmos somewhere around march because half the time I tried to add an addon something broke
23:59.15AnduinLotharIn fact I've been debating cutting a few outdated on unkept addons from cosmos
23:59.20Plorkyeranbut now my friends who have it don't have any real issues
23:59.23*** join/#wowi-lounge Mango (n=Sallazar@6532138hfc34.tampabay.res.rr.com)
23:59.30Gryphenthat was when framexml was at its peak for breaking things in cosmos
23:59.43Plorkyeranand when sky was horribly broken
23:59.50Corrodiasi see libraries... chronos, sea, earth, and sky. and i see khaos, whatever it is.
