irclog2html for #wowi-lounge on 20060206

00:00.04sarf|stuffAnyhow, fasciniting how easy MC is, started with it 4 weeks ago and already on the last non-summonable boss. <wipes away tear of joy>
00:00.09sarf|stuffSleep well everyone!
00:01.16Corrodiasyeah, WoW is starting to lose interest for me
00:01.36Corrodiasit lasted twice as long as most games do, and i'll probably come back around to it in under a year, but i need a vacation
00:02.42Corrodiasi have other games to play! paper mario, majora's mask (second time), megaman zero 4, x-wing alliance, civilization 4... and i keep forgetting the fifth
00:02.48Corrodiasoh, that is 5
00:04.37KirkburnWhat's a good prog for coding lua?
00:04.55WobI like EditPlus
00:05.03GenNMX|Thraegvim!
00:05.11WobBut I'm sure there are some nice ones out there
00:05.14Cide-anything with (good) color coding
00:05.35IrielI use emacs
00:05.38Irielwith lua-mode
00:08.04KirkburnI'm starting to hate firefox
00:08.24Maldiviawhy?
00:08.35Corrodiasbecause IE pleasures him sexually
00:08.38KirkburnBecause it's not showing my site properly
00:08.51KirkburnAnd it follows the html 4.01 standard
00:08.51GenNMX|ThraeFirefox is very strict about what it allows. If you don't follow the standards to the letter, it won't work right. Internet Explorer, on the other hand, allows all kinds of errors in an effort to be "compatible".
00:09.02futrtrublit's fine, lern2kode
00:09.06MaldiviaI usually hate IE when doing HTML, since it always shows in Firefox as I expect it to
00:09.10Corrodiashtml 4.01 should still be okay :(
00:09.25KirkburnWell, in my case it shows in IE perfectly, but is now broken in FF
00:09.28Corrodiasmake sure you're declaring that as the type or it might assume you're using xhtml 1.0 transitional or some crap, i think?
00:09.50Maldiviayeah, do you have a DOCTYPE in the beginning of the file?
00:10.19KirkburnI do
00:10.27KirkburnThat's a point
00:10.28Corrodiasdo you have a fuzzy bunny?
00:10.42KirkburnWorks now
00:10.54KirkburnSo apparently it's not html 4.01
00:11.10ScytheBlade1Kirkburn: here's something else about IE. If you don't have a doctype, it'll use it's own standards. If you do, it'll still use it's own standards, just modified.
00:11.12ScytheBlade1IE is good times.
00:11.24KirkburnWhich makes no sense now ... I tested it as html 4.01 and it passed and put that as my doctype
00:11.43ScytheBlade1Also, it's "standards" change depending on which doctype you put it as, especially html 4.01 strict/transitional/etc
00:11.49Kirkburntransitional
00:12.09Kirkburn(u were going to say frameset I assume)
00:12.16ScytheBlade1Yup
00:12.19Kirkburnheh
00:12.23ScytheBlade1It's been a while :P
00:12.37KirkburnI've no idea what it means anyway
00:12.44ScytheBlade1I think an example of a well-done website, is actually blizzard's
00:12.50ScytheBlade1They follow 0 standards
00:12.55ScytheBlade1Have absolute horrible code
00:12.59WobAnd it works =P
00:13.01ScytheBlade1Completly, just plain horrible
00:13.08ScytheBlade1But it renders identically in every browser under the sun.
00:13.08Kirkburnlol
00:13.23KirkburnThe EU website doesn't render properly
00:13.24ScytheBlade1s/every/every modern/
00:13.31ScytheBlade1The US one does
00:13.37WobAye, to work, you have to basically ignore any standards and tie together all the quirks for each separate browser =P
00:13.45KirkburnApparently we have sh*tter PCs so get a smaller view
00:13.48ScytheBlade1Exactly. Which, plain and simple, s ucks.
00:13.48GenNMX|ThraeWoW Forums don't render identically in my IE and Firefox
00:13.57ScytheBlade1They're pretty dang close :P
00:13.59KirkburnAnd thus with a larger view, u get a blank section in the middle
00:14.40GenNMX|ThraeThe Blizzard website is a bad example, you can follow good coding practices and still have something compatible, but as you said, you might need _some_ massaging
00:14.44Maldivia[pre] in Firefox vs Internet Explorer is a good example of how the forums are rendered differently
00:15.12ScytheBlade1Fair enough.
00:15.15GenNMX|ThraeI still think Blizzard hired some contract web developer who's either a) payed almost nothing or b) payed too much
00:15.34ScytheBlade1Nah, it's all in-house stuff.
00:15.35Corrodiasor who c) died years ago
00:15.38Corrodiasand nobody knows
00:15.44GenNMX|ThraeA in-house contractor, I mean
00:15.46ScytheBlade1You'd be surprised, heh
00:15.48ScytheBlade1Ah, k
00:15.56ScytheBlade1Subtle difference
00:16.20GenNMX|ThraeThey'd keep him under contract and not salaried just to let him know he could be let go at any minute, when they think the site is "done", letting the CMs do the rest of the updates ;)
00:16.25ScytheBlade1lol
00:16.28KirkburnThe CMs?!
00:16.48futrtrublcombat medics?
00:16.53GenNMX|ThraeYes, the CMs are in charge of adding content to the website. The web developer just does maintenance and upgrades.
00:17.13WobContent Managers
00:17.14KirkburnBut surely they don't code?
00:17.17ScytheBlade1The CMs kinda scare me
00:17.19ScytheBlade1Nooo
00:17.26ScytheBlade1They don't code, oh dear no
00:17.39KirkburnOkay, I'm getting you
00:17.40ScytheBlade1If they did, you'd actually see them on the UI forum ;)
00:17.42GenNMX|ThraeYou don't have to code to add text and images, I bet they use some type of backend
00:17.52KirkburnWonder what the forums will turn out like
00:18.02GenNMX|ThraeIt would be the job of the web developer to add cool stuff like Talent Calculators
00:18.08KirkburnStill WHY does FF have to be an ass :s
00:18.12ScytheBlade1Kirkburn: off the record, I've seen a preview of th em
00:18.24KirkburnAnd your view?
00:18.30ScytheBlade1They shall be teh hot.
00:18.33ScytheBlade1But that's all I can really say,
00:18.35ScytheBlade1*say.
00:18.35KirkburnCool
00:18.51GenNMX|ThraeScytheBlade1: Could they be released this year?
00:19.03ScytheBlade1Did you see the b.net revamp?
00:19.07KirkburnOkay, one question - much better than standard online forums?
00:19.16GenNMX|ThraeI don't read b.net forums, so no.
00:19.20ScytheBlade1Kirkburn: that's a loaded question ;)
00:19.31ScytheBlade1GenNMX|Thrae: well, they re-vamped battle.net completly not too long ago
00:19.32KirkburnAnd a good one too
00:19.36ScytheBlade1and a decent amount of the code is shared
00:19.42ScytheBlade1But it IS blizzard :P
00:19.47GenNMX|ThraeANYTHING is better then the current forums
00:19.57GenNMX|ThraeThey have a lot of very nasty bugs in the current forum code
00:20.04ScytheBlade1Nah. You've gotta realize what they have running behind it all
00:20.21ScytheBlade1Really, imagine their pageviews
00:20.32ScytheBlade1In views alone, hammering on the MSSQL server
00:20.38ScytheBlade1I'm amazed that they stand at all :P
00:20.52GenNMX|ThraeHow does that excuse the bugs?
00:21.02KirkburnThe bnet forums appear to be the same as WoW forums, just look nicer
00:21.17ScytheBlade1It's really, really hard to debug a product with that many concurrent hits, without people noticing
00:21.34ScytheBlade1The "ending a post in [/quote]" bug is due to the last char, the ], which is used in MSSQL table names
00:21.37ScytheBlade1For that, there's no excuse :P
00:22.07ScytheBlade1But as far as when it happens, I dunno
00:22.12ScytheBlade1blizzard says "friday"
00:22.13GenNMX|ThraeBut these are bugs that have been there forever I mean.
00:22.18ScytheBlade1Obvious question would be "which?" ;)
00:22.36KirkburnFriday sounds like a stupid day to do it
00:22.51ScytheBlade1That was an example of their "we'll have it done by X" is all
00:22.57Kirkburnah
00:23.16GenNMX|ThraeLike posts becoming inoperable after 30-some pages of replies. The obvious solution would be to auto-lock the post when it reaches that point.
00:23.21ScytheBlade1That was the big war3 expansion joke
00:23.32ScytheBlade1"Coming in december!" "Of which year?"
00:23.37GenNMX|ThraeBut I guess they can't do that, which is scarier...
00:23.41ScytheBlade1GenNMX|Thrae: you can actually read them past that limit
00:23.51ScytheBlade1You have to abuse the find posts in some nasty ways, but you can
00:24.16ScytheBlade1And also, that point is variable
00:24.25GenNMX|ThraeScytheBlade1: Why make people go through all that trouble when you can just disallow the action?
00:24.41ScytheBlade1Ask them ;)
00:24.45GenNMX|ThraeThere are SOOOO many posts everyday with "XX thread is broken, start a new thread!"
00:24.56ScytheBlade1Yeah, and it's just that: broken
00:25.25ScytheBlade1I have a friend who blizzard actually requested that he beta WoW
00:25.35ScytheBlade1He can login as a blue due to holes in the site :P
00:25.44ScytheBlade1(He's also rather trusted)
00:26.06ScytheBlade1It has more holes than... yeah :)
00:26.13GenNMX|ThraeI can't believe Blizzard has complete creative freedom. Or at least I won't, that keeps my hope that the actual developers are sane, it's the publishers which are not ;)
00:26.43ScytheBlade1I'm just hopeful for SC2.
00:26.51GenNMX|ThraeI have faith that most of Blizzard's problems are due to their publisher, like most game developers.
00:27.31ScytheBlade1Time will tell.
00:27.38ScytheBlade1WoW was... horrible to the storyline
00:28.01GenNMX|ThraeI don't think this is an instance where time will tell if Blizzard is being beaten by their publisher.
00:28.17GenNMX|ThraeHow can you know about the specifics of a developer -> publisher relationship?
00:28.21GenNMX|ThraeUnless you're Cairenn ;)
00:28.24ScytheBlade1lol
00:28.32ScytheBlade1I doubt that's it
00:28.44ScytheBlade1Did you hear of the big internal breakup they had before WoW was released?
00:29.13KirkburnI think it wasn't as bad as made out
00:29.18ScytheBlade1No, but do realize
00:29.27GenNMX|ThraeYeah, but I thought the breakup was due to money and politics, not idiology.
00:29.31ScytheBlade1The minds that made SC and War1/War2/War3... left
00:29.34Osa|BothTeamsSucWasn't that what led to Guild Wars being developed?
00:29.40ScytheBlade1Yup
00:30.03GenNMX|ThraePublishers are a game developer's government, and they control most of the money.
00:30.29ScytheBlade1True
00:30.40GenNMX|ThraeThey're usually to blame for stuff like breakups within medium or larger companies.
00:30.54KirkburnOh btw, both FF and IE mess up when I put the background-color: transparent tag in, isn't life fun
00:31.30ScytheBlade1"background-color: transparent" is valid?
00:31.34GenNMX|ThraeEspecially with MMORPGs, where most people try to make them out to be bigger money-makers then they really are (they're one of the worst types of money-makers in game development)
00:31.41ScytheBlade1That's very true
00:31.51ScytheBlade1But... SC2? "All I can be is hopefuly"
00:31.53ScytheBlade1*hopeful
00:31.57KirkburnEr, it isn't valid?
00:32.07ScytheBlade1Kirkburn: I don't believe so, no
00:32.23ScytheBlade1try none instead of transparent
00:32.49GenNMX|ThraeSC2 I think will have a good amount of development go into it, it's not like the WoW devs are working on it anyway ;)
00:33.01GenNMX|ThraeSC2 would be done by the other physical branch of Blizzard
00:33.07ScytheBlade1It's not that, it's the storyline that scares me :/
00:33.16ScytheBlade1The minds who made SC... are gone
00:33.19ScytheBlade1..
00:33.51GenNMX|ThraeMaybe they'll have Orcs left over on Draenor as a playable race!
00:34.03ScytheBlade1lol
00:34.41GenNMX|ThraeActually, I bet SC's storyline was mostly finished before Brood Wars was finished.
00:34.48ScytheBlade1One can hope
00:34.58ScytheBlade1But the actual implimentation..
00:35.05GenNMX|ThraeThe depth in SC and Brood Wars shows a lot of foreshadowing that would be rather criminal to fake.
00:35.17ScytheBlade1Oh, agreed completly
00:35.23KirkburnNone worked :p
00:35.32ScytheBlade1Once my system finishes recompiling, I'm off to install SC :P
00:35.48ScytheBlade1Kirkburn: if desperate, you could always do the background image
00:36.03ScytheBlade1s/image/image trick/
00:36.06GenNMX|ThraeIf it wasn't completed, then I say the SC designer wasn't dependable to begin with, making up foreboding stuff on the spot
00:36.14KirkburnNah, I'm only putting it in for completeness
00:36.26ScytheBlade1Good point.
00:36.30KirkburnMy site looks like this one: soundspectrum.com
00:36.44ScytheBlade1I'm uh, in a fun 80x25 text terminal now ;)
00:36.46ScytheBlade1No GUI for me
00:37.08GenNMX|ThraeKirkburn: That doesn't display properly in links =/
00:37.18Kirkburnhttp://www.soundspectrum.com/
00:37.37GenNMX|Thrae~links
00:37.39purlLynx-like text WWW browser. URL: http://artax.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~mikulas/links/
00:39.04ScytheBlade1Due to my lack of a browser
00:39.07ScytheBlade1~slashdot
00:39.07GenNMX|ThraeScytheBlade1: Besides the original three races, what about a Protoss-Zerg hybrid and the Xel-Naga as the new SC2 races? That would follow Blizzard's trend of having one more playable race for each RTS they make. (WC2 was 2, SC was 3, WC3 was 4)
00:39.08KirkburnI have no idea what I shoudl be saying so I'll say - that looks pointless :)
00:39.55GenNMX|ThraeOr, follow the trend for adding 2 more playable races to each sequel.
00:40.00ScytheBlade1GenNMX|Thrae: semi-off topic, Wikipedia has the entire SC storyline written out in incredible detail, the N64 level only included
00:41.02ScytheBlade1The Xel'Naga... are far too secrative. They have 0 actual unit sprites in the game
00:41.12ScytheBlade1The hybrid, however, while it also has no sprites, I can see we'd at least have a model for
00:41.58GenNMX|ThraeWell the Undead and Night Elves were very different from their WC2 counterparts
00:42.25KirkburnAnd what about Diablo III
00:42.28ScytheBlade1That's true, but they were still a critical part of the stroyline
00:42.35ScytheBlade1s/stroyline/storyline/
00:42.50GenNMX|ThraeNight Elves weren't in WC2, nor were the Scourge...
00:43.09ScytheBlade1While the same remains true of the Xel'Naga... I'm placing them in the 'races' like the Demons in War3
00:43.19ScytheBlade1NE were in the world and actively mentioned though
00:43.23KirkburnOh look! Utter genius! IE renders my site correctly, so does FF. But now FRONTPAGE doesn't
00:43.30ScytheBlade1...
00:43.33ScytheBlade1You're using frontpage?
00:43.33GenNMX|ThraeThe Xel-Naga were alluded to many times in the Protoss campaigns
00:43.39KirkburnYeah, don't ask
00:43.43ScytheBlade1...
00:43.46ScytheBlade1Trust me, I won't ask
00:43.50KirkburnI'd use Dreamweaver when I get roudn to it
00:43.51ScytheBlade1I'll shoot you in the face first ;)
00:43.58ScytheBlade1:)
00:44.09KirkburnI do have it, not sure if it's with me
00:44.30ScytheBlade1Your problem isn't with FF or IE
00:44.35GenNMX|ThraeBah I hope they don't make the "Xel-Naga" into "Demons", that would be adding more fantasy to science-fiction. I was hoping they were carrying it towards just some race with high biological technology trying to play god.
00:44.37ScytheBlade1Your problem is with what you're making the page in :P
00:44.41KirkburnI must check. Perhaps my coding will thus improve :)
00:45.00ScytheBlade1GenNMX|Thrae: I mean in the playabilty extent. Sure, they'll be in there, but not as a playable race, or anything close
00:45.14KirkburnFP 2003 isn't *that* bad. Anyways, the problems I've been having were mostly NOT frontpage's fault
00:45.49GenNMX|ThraeRight, but Demons aren't playable because they are too powerful. I didn't see the Xel-Naga as being very powerful in anything except biology.
00:46.30ScytheBlade1After the protoss, they never had direct contact with anyone period, to date
00:46.41ScytheBlade1That's why I don't see them as anything close to playable
00:46.57KirkburnOh, no wait, You're right, it's crap. I can SEE in the code that this box has a defined background. However, just because the CSS defines the text inside as without bg, frontpage tells me it doesn't have one. huh?
00:47.06ScytheBlade1:)
00:47.08ScytheBlade1Told you.
00:47.11GenNMX|ThraeWait, do we know where the Zerg originated?
00:47.21KirkburnI'm thus guessing that IE6 will mess up if I use this code
00:47.27ScytheBlade1GenNMX|Thrae: yup. they were initially some larva on a planet.
00:47.55ScytheBlade1GenNMX|Thrae: trust me when I say to hit up wikipedia
00:47.57GenNMX|ThraeBut do we know which planet?
00:48.00ScytheBlade1It's horribly detailed
00:48.11ScytheBlade1It's mentioned in SC, their home planet
00:48.39ScytheBlade1Bah I have a desire to play SC now :P
00:48.41ScytheBlade1Now now now now now
00:48.48ScytheBlade1HURRY UP GLIBC, COMPILE
00:49.05GenNMX|ThraeScytheBlade1: I'm reading the Starcraft entry and I don't see it. I just see that their main base is on Char.
00:49.24ScytheBlade1GenNMX|Thrae: hmm, sec as I go and attempt it in lynx
00:49.47GenNMX|ThraeAh wait, I'm not looking at the right spot
00:50.39ScytheBlade1<PROTECTED>
00:51.31GenNMX|ThraeYeah, I'm reading that and still don't see the planet the first larva were dropped on.
00:52.06ScytheBlade1Dropped?
00:52.10ScytheBlade1They larva were found by them
00:52.20ScytheBlade1Zerus is the planet
00:52.29GenNMX|ThraeI thought the Xel-Naga created the larva from stratch?
00:52.32ScytheBlade1Nope.
00:52.45ScytheBlade1From that main page, under prequel, click on Xel'Naga
00:52.55KirkburnAnd this was all in SC1?
00:53.00GenNMX|ThraeAhh, I see.
00:53.11ScytheBlade1Yes
00:53.36KirkburnJesus, I missed out
00:53.43ScytheBlade1haha
00:53.46KirkburnHow did I not notice all that
00:53.51Corrodiasthat's a lot of story for an RTS
00:53.57GenNMX|ThraeActually, now that I read this article "...Zerus became the site of the *ultimate* defeat of the Xel'Naga race." Makes me think the Xel'Naga are most if not all extinct.
00:54.03ScytheBlade1It's a TON of story.
00:54.05ScytheBlade1Keep reading
00:54.11GenNMX|ThraeHeh, WC2 had just as much story, if not more.
00:54.21Corrodiasstfu
00:54.29KirkburnEven if it has mostly changed now
00:55.43GenNMX|ThraeWhat has changed?
00:55.49KirkburnEr
00:56.00KirkburnWell, were they Alexstrazas dragons in WC2?
00:56.09KirkburnOr were they just 'dragons'
00:57.00Corrodiasi can't spend so much time thinking about the story of a couple of games. there are too many games to play for that. :(
00:57.12GenNMX|ThraeBesides some minor details, WoW has only added to the backstory, hence why it's called "WORLD of Warcraft". But I'd have to get back to you on that particular fact.
00:57.47ScytheBlade1Minor details?
00:57.49Kirkburnheh
00:57.51ScytheBlade1The corruption of Stormwind?
00:57.58ScytheBlade1...
00:58.02ScytheBlade1How is that "minor"? ;)
00:58.10KirkburnWho's Onyxia?
00:58.20Osa|BothTeamsSucStormwind was retaken in WC2... :P
00:59.05KirkburnOkay here's a question for you buffs: what are the 7 human kingdoms?
00:59.22Kirkburnare/were
00:59.38GenNMX|ThraeThe ones that Sauron gave the rings to? ;)
00:59.58KirkburnIs that u trying to change the subject?
01:00.22Corrodiasi see what you did there
01:00.26KirkburnC'mon giev me answers
01:00.33cladhair1http://www.wowwiki.com/The_Seven_Kingdoms
01:00.38GenNMX|ThraeNo, I didn't know there were 7 in Warcraft too. There are 7 in Tolkein...
01:00.51KirkburnDammit cladhaire
01:00.58cladhair1=)
01:01.01Corrodiasstormwind, lordaeron, atlantis, xanadu, timbuktu, eden, and heaven
01:01.04KirkburnThey were supposed to name them
01:01.41cladhairewell now they can =)
01:01.44KirkburnOff the top of my head I can think of, sw, lordaeron, dalaran, alterac, stromgarde, the peninsula who's name I've totally forgotten
01:01.53cladhairewhat makes a buff is not memorizatino.. its using your resources =)
01:01.54KirkburnAnd the island
01:01.59KirkburnWhich I've also forgotten
01:02.04Corrodiasywah, warcraft has a good story behind it, which could be pretty entertaining to read. not unlike the elder scrolls games.
01:02.10CorrodiasYWAH!
01:02.12KirkburnAh, gilneas and kul tiras
01:02.20GenNMX|Thraecladhaire: I think he meant "trivia buff" ;)
01:02.35cladhairemy mom sleeps in the buff
01:02.36KirkburnKul Tiras may have been taken by naga, but is unlikely. Lots of sailors
01:02.44Maldiviahmm... Rolling Stones doing the half-time show... let's hope there's no wardrobe malfunction this year...
01:02.44CodayusOn an unrelated note - anyone else seriously looking forward to the release of Oblivion?
01:02.50Kirkburnmmm
01:02.54Osa|BothTeamsSucLordaeron, Stormwind, Dalaran, Alterac, Gilneas, and I can't remember the last two

03:28.21IrielInthe first post?
03:28.24Irielor another one?
03:28.35Temyou have LayoutFrame:GetAllPoints() where it whould be LayoutFrame:GetNumPoints()
03:28.38Tem(first post)
03:29.16IrielAha, cheers
03:29.38Temjust noticed it earlier today when I was reading over the changes
03:29.40IrielI'll change it as soon as I get logged in
03:30.44IrielFixed
03:31.17TainDo we know yet if there will be a way to tell programmatically whether or not a frame was defined in XML or it was created "dynamically?"
03:32.54IrielI would hope not
03:34.04futrtrublhook CreateFrame() and make a list ;']
03:34.28Tain:(
03:34.34IrielWhy would you care?
03:34.45Iriel(And you could hook CreateFrame to just set a flag on all the created ones)
03:35.48TainAddons that move/size/etc. frames can have issues since the frames may not exist yet when their settings are applied.
03:36.08IrielBut the same is going to apply for LoD frames
03:36.11TainIt's an issue with ondemand frames too.
03:36.16futrtrublthey can just see if the frame exists before applying
03:36.55TainYes of course that's stating the obvious.
03:37.02Irielthough I guess WHEN is an issue
03:37.04TainBut it just avoids it.
03:37.11Irielwith LOD you can at least wait for ADDON_LOADED
03:37.20futrtrublhook, createframe to know when it is made, wait a bit then apply settings
03:37.21Maldiviahmm, good you mentioned it - reminds me to make an "anchor" frame in XML, to be UserPlaced(), when converting my mod to dynamic creating for 1.10
03:37.22TainThe when is the issue.  Even today, it just becomes more of one with dynamic frames.
03:37.31Irielwith dynamic frames, you dont know when.. i suspect a hook of CreateFrame combined with an OnUpdater
03:37.46Irielwill give you a solution, albeit a bit messy
03:39.53TainYeah.
03:39.58futrtrublMaldivia, or reme,ber the placement yourself
03:40.20futrtrublthe new anchor methods will help with that
03:41.10TainA mod can have its frames positions remembered now, it's for ones that don't.
03:41.46futrtrublyup, that's what I'm saying

04:32.44Irielno idea, I use my iPod on my windows machine
04:33.16ShadowdSame. It doesn't look that bad, but I don't see why you would do that, doesn't look like theres any amazing benifits to it.
04:33.37Shouryuujsut for change :P
04:34.03ShadowdWill the iTunes software still work with Linux iPod?
04:34.21Shouryuudon't think so
04:34.59ShadowdSounds like it's more trouble then it's worth
04:35.08Shouryuuhehe
04:35.25ScytheBlade1Wait - with Linux iPod?
04:35.26ScytheBlade1Huh?
04:35.39ShadowdYou can put Linux onto iPod's
04:35.50ScytheBlade1yeah... and it's nearly useless due to processor or lack thereof
04:36.00ScytheBlade1I thought you meant synching an iPod with a linux desktop, haha
04:36.39ShadowdThe people who did it probably just tried it for the sake of saying "We put Linux onto an iPod" I can hardly see any benifits from doing so though.
04:37.19ScytheBlade1Pretty much.
04:37.55ScytheBlade1They had to extract it's BIOS by putting it into debug mode, listening for clicks, and timing it so that click = 1, no click = 0
04:38.03ScytheBlade1and assembling the BIOS in binary :P
04:38.15ScytheBlade1They did it just to say that they could :)
04:38.17ScytheBlade1And it said a lot :)
04:38.27ShadowdAnd because they had to much free time apparently
04:38.45ScytheBlade1Yeah. Then they had to take the tape and play it back to assemble it.
04:38.46ScytheBlade1Scary stuff.
04:39.17ShadowdCan you even put it back to the way it was? The tools they had don't restore BIOS if I recall.
04:40.37ScytheBlade1It was the raw software that powers the iPod
04:40.44ScytheBlade1Whatever that may be
04:40.49Shadowdahhh
04:41.11ScytheBlade1I called it BIOS for lack of a better term
04:41.17ScytheBlade1Firmware, actually, would be better

04:59.12KarlKFIoffering
05:00.17AnduinLothareverything you can think of.. installing to an empty folder, no interface folder, on top of regular addons, uninstalling, installing to the disable folder, cleaning, installing only part..
05:00.39AnduinLotharunpatching on a 2nd install..
05:00.52AnduinLotharvarious combos of configs
05:01.08AnduinLotharalways file check option..
05:01.10ShadowdCan you install, cancel mid way and install on top of that, or does it lock?
05:01.11AnduinLotharw/e
05:01.33AnduinLotharif you cancil mid way it reverts unless you force quit the app
05:01.46Shadowdah
05:01.51AnduinLotharcause it downloads to a cache first
05:02.01AnduinLotharso the install is really just moving files around
05:02.18AnduinLotharwith some file checking to make .prepatch files
05:02.44AnduinLotharwhich can be used for unpatching the latest dl
05:03.38AnduinLotharit prolly wont be all that hard to break. I've only really done testing on Mac and i dunno how well the author tested the exe
05:04.50AnduinLotharchange log since the last windows patch is like 150 lines long... complete rewrite
05:05.17AnduinLotharAlso not sure if the thottbot upload is actually working
05:05.31AnduinLotharbut you wont be able to tell that offhand anyway
05:09.15CairennKarl - won't actually get to try to break this until tomorrow, just realized how late it is

06:35.09kremontehe went from fire to shadow to fire to shadow to fire to shadow
06:35.14kremontesecond from last BWL boss, yea
06:35.14Temtwice every minute and a half usually
06:35.18ShadowdAh chromaggus
06:35.48kremonteat 2% my internet skipped up and i lagged, couldn't get out of acid and died immediately. :'(
06:36.11ShadowdYeah, watching the hunters die during Chromaggus is always fun
06:36.22kremontebetter to watch the hunters cry on vent on nef :')
06:36.51ShadowdWhen learning nef we ( the rogues ) just went and made a sandwich after our class call :p
06:36.59Shadowdthe one time they did res us we all died like 20 seconds later :D
06:36.59kremontelol
06:37.11kremontehaha
06:37.13kremontei love lock nef call
06:37.28kremontebut because of that, i give my mage friend a major mana pot every time we go :'(
06:37.45ShadowdStart giving him the level 5 mana potions until he gets the hint
06:38.00kremontehe's my black market water supplied
06:38.03Temhow does the nef fight work?
06:38.17kremonteyou fight drakonoids that walk funny for a few minutes
06:38.23kremontenef lands and does a kabillion damage to people
06:38.38kremonteyou dps while hunters cry and laugh histerically at their pain until 20~%
06:38.46ShadowdThen you fight nef ( giant pissed off dragon ) who does class calls which effect each class differently. Like the hunter call breaks there bow/gun if they shoot him and the rogues get rooted in front of him.
06:38.51kremonteyou aoe a bunch of skeletons then cry yourself because they all destroy you
06:38.59kremontethen you kill him and go "yay" in /g
06:39.16kremontei still like my call
06:39.18ShadowdSeeing if you can kill people during the priest call is fun!
06:39.20kremontewarlocks all summon infernals
06:39.39Temwhat's the priest call?
06:39.47kremontemakes them heal nef or somethin
06:39.53Shouryuulol
06:39.55ShadowdPuts a DoT on the person you healed that does something like 600 damage a tick and it stacks.
06:39.56kremonteor their heals do damage
06:40.00kremonteyeah that
06:40.08kremonteyou know what would be funny
06:40.13kremonteif instead of those , he had BWL calls
06:40.15ShadowdDoTing all the rogues during the call?
06:40.16kremontewhere he'd res every BWL boss
06:40.40ShadowdYeah you can do that actually. It's called pulling the chromaggus lever after broodlord.
06:40.42kremonte"20%!!! Chromaggus hits you for 4230 (crushing)"
06:40.46ShadowdThat was fun!
06:40.50kremontehahahahaha
06:40.57kremontecan't do that as a warlock ;(
06:41.26ShadowdTheres just something tempting about that lever. You see the giant pissed off dog next to it and you just think that nothing bad will happen, and then couriosity gets the better of you and you pull it.
06:41.37kremontehaha
06:41.59kremontewe tried something new today, we summoned the rogue pulling the lever before he did, so he could pull and try to accept before he was in combat
06:42.11kremontehe was so freaked out (it was his first time in chrom fight) he accepted the summon early
06:42.13kremonte....4 times
06:42.23Shadowdhaha
06:42.38kremontethen we said "f it" and he got 1 shotted with a crit
06:43.01kremonte(apparently gigantic multicolored acid breathing flesh eating dogs run more than twice as fast as you)
06:43.14kremontesooooo yeah
06:43.29ShadowdThats better then making a rogue pull, and the hunter whos suppose to pull him off the MT waits until the rogue dies.
06:43.37Shadowd*off to the MT
06:43.59kremontenah we <3 our hunters too much
06:44.32kremontewe wiped on nef cause we were missing a hunter. he got on after the queue and a bunch of people on vent went, "WE WIPED BECAUSE OF YOU, HOW DO YOU FEEL NOW?!"
06:44.41kremontegah i need less caffiene
06:45.01ShadowdHow did you wipe on nef without a hunter?
06:45.28kremontewe didn't really ;D we were just screwing with him
06:45.45kremontebut we did wipe cause we've only done nef 3 times including today, and the two first were black/green
06:45.53ShadowdWas going to say, what kind of strat are you using!
06:46.09kremontewe're using HIF
06:46.37ShadowdHIF?
06:47.06kremonteHunter Intensive Fight. we get twelve hunters on each side (24 total), and have them use volley because volley is amazing.
06:47.33Shadowdwow, usually just used single target and burned them down
06:47.48kremonteyou couldn't tell that was a joke? :(

06:50.39ShadowdI mostly just use the standard UI, CTRA, CT_Whatever and anything else is random stuff i make

07:03.46ShadowdDecursive is a good way to "hide" the fact that they got banned for 3rd party addons of course
07:03.59sancusyou mean hacks

07:31.34ShadowdOnly people I see using AGI are usually hunters or rogues. And i rarely see people using STR.
07:32.04kremontewarriors =P
07:32.07Kalrothwarriors and rogues use STR
07:32.37Kalroth1 str is 2 atk for a warrior and 1 str is 1 atk for a rogue
07:32.39ShadowdUsing +15 STR enchant I mean not using STR :p
07:32.46Kalrothoh :p
07:33.16Kalrothwell +15 str is worse than Crusader, so no wonder :)
07:33.21kremonteanyone know what time (oclock) darkmoon faire opens?
07:33.52ShadowdYeah, I do see people using +15 str on 2h somewhat often though, I guess it's cheaper.
07:34.31AnduinLotharbut you think crusader is better?
07:34.40ShadowdYeah
07:34.56Kalrothyeah Shadowd, the righteous orbs can be a pain unless you got a guild that wants to help you get them :)
07:35.02AnduinLotharwhat about LS, has about a 1/3 chance to proc on a 3.6speed weap
07:35.11KalrothAnduinLothar: on main hand, yes Crusader is better
07:35.11kremontedoesnt heal much at all =/
07:35.16AnduinLothar30hp i think
07:35.25ShadowdCrusader heals more then LS does, and the burst damage will basically make up for what LS does to your enemy.
07:35.26KalrothLS heals for 30 and does 30 damage
07:35.37AnduinLotharand procs 6x more than crusader
07:36.08ShadowdTrue. But the burst damage is going to be more then LS. And the heal will only do about 100 more then crusader does if it heals 30 a proc.
07:36.10KalrothIsn't lifesteal is weapon speed based though? Where Crusader is % over time.

12:34.17KalrothWelcome to real life!
12:34.40WobFeh =P
12:40.12elemaanother question:
12:40.12elemahow do I set a text to a fintstring out of two variables?
12:40.12elemafontstriname:SetText(<whatshouldbehere);
12:40.19elemain this format
12:41.31elemaI've got "BGC_AJ_EXPTIME" and the other value is "expireTime"
12:44.11elemadoes it work like this: :SetText(BGC_AJ_EXPTIME, expireTime); ?
12:45.22elemaor: SetText(BGC_AJ_EXPTIME .. .. expireTime); ?
12:45.31elemaor another way?
12:47.28sarf|stuffthere are several ways
12:47.41sarf|stuffeasiest way (if the strings "fit together") is to use
12:47.47sarf|stuffSetText(BGC_AJ_EXPTIME .. expireTime); ?
12:48.12sarf|stuffHowever, if you want to make it flexible to change, you set up BGC_AJ_EXPTIME a bit differently
12:48.20sarf|stuff(and use format)
12:48.23sarf|stuffWhat is it now?
12:48.42sarf|stuffand also, is expire time an integer or a float ?
12:49.08sarf|stuffExample (integer): BGC_AJ_EXPTIME = "Expiry time: %d seconds"
12:49.24sarf|stuffExample (flat): BGC_AJ_EXPTIME = "Expiry time (%2f seconds)"
12:49.32sarf|stuffthen to put the values in the settext...
12:49.45sarf|stuffSetText(format(BGC_AJ_EXPTIME, expireTime));
12:49.58krka|workyup, do as sarf says
12:50.13sarf|stuffThe *benefits* of this is that you simply need to change BGC_AJ_EXPTIME to change how it is displayed
12:50.27krka|workalso good for localizations
12:50.40sarf|stuffThe disadvantage is, of course, higher complexity, making the code a bit more hard to  understand
12:50.47sarf|stuff<nods>
12:50.48krka|worki disagree with that :)
12:50.57sarf|stuffOh?
12:51.16sarf|stuffYou will have to make another lookup to see how the text is displayed, will you not?
12:51.33sarf|stuffWhereas A..B only can result in one type of result
12:51.43krka|workjust look at the localization to see how it's displayed
12:51.46sarf|stuffAh
12:51.53sarf|stuffBut it is added complexity, and lookup
12:52.05krka|workyes, but it's not more difficult
12:52.44sarf|stuffIn any case, elema, either way, I'd recommend that you do SetText(A..B) until it works, then fix it to use format
12:54.39krka|workagreed
13:00.06elemaI've found it in another mod like this: (BGC_AJ_EXPTIME..expireTime); I'm using this, because it automatic changes the text
13:07.47krka|workwhat do you mean by automatic changes the text?

16:38.51wereHamsterHi Cide..
16:39.36Cidehi
16:41.22wereHamsterI've noticed that you use 'local useless, useless, min, max = string.find(...)' throughout your code.. the 'useless' variables can be replaced by an underscore.. not a big performance improvement, but can be a start :)
16:46.03id`do you even need the temp vars with string.find() ?
16:46.21id`i mean cant you just let string.find return the table of only the atoms you want.. ?
16:48.27wereHamsterstring.find returns the start and end of the found string, so you always have at least two return values..
16:50.04id`oh right, gfind :P
16:52.52krkawereHamster, and what's the difference between "useless" and "_"?
16:54.41wereHamsterkrka, when using '_', it doesn't create a variable => less garbage collection.. that's a nice feature in lua.. if you aren't interested in something, just put a '_' there..
16:54.57krkareally? didn't know it was part of lua

19:29.10elemafucking blizz, why the don't they let us europeans post uon the us forum
19:29.32elemaor why don't they have good CMs at the EU-Forums
19:31.54krkasorry cair, got sidetracked by playing :)
19:32.16Irielelema: because the forums are tied to the game logins, and the various game incarnations are entirely separate.
19:33.03elemayeah it's clear to me but I think it is stupid to support the community in the us and let die the com in europe
19:33.11elemanothing against the us
19:33.34elemait's just.. not fair?
19:35.47IrielWell, it depends on which 'community' you refer to
19:36.39IrielIf you're talking about the UI community, then the 'support' we get is entirely voluntary on slouken's part (he's not paid to make US happy), but he's also happy to have those of us on the US forums pass along posts when necessary
19:36.59IrielIf you're talking about the larger community, then that's a different issue entirely.
19:37.26krkairiel, did you know about the bug with UPDATE_BINDINGS?
19:39.09IrielNo, what bug is that?
19:39.25krkadpesmt
19:39.32krkadoesn't get triggered when you hit Okay in key bindingsd
19:39.41IrielDoes it get triggered ever?
19:39.41krkabut it gets triggered when you escape from the keybindings frame
19:39.52IrielDoes it get triggered when the bindings get set?
19:39.55krkano
19:40.38Cairennand if you are a smart member of the community, you hang out at WoWI and in this channel, where there are no boundaries :)
19:41.21IrielThat's really the question you see, what does UPDATE_BINDINGS indicate
19:41.32IrielDoes it indicate that a binding changed, in which case OKAY is __NOT__ the right time to fire
19:41.42krkai am using it the same way as ActionButton.lua, and that one is broken too
19:41.45Irielbecause it's the SetBinding call that should have fired it (when you actually set the binding)
19:41.46*** join/#wowi-lounge Kirkburn (n=Kirkburn@151.56.194.17)
19:41.58krkaif you change your keybindings, the hotkey texts don't update with it
19:42.03IrielSounds like that may be the bug then, which we should report
19:42.11krkai've already put cair on it
19:42.20IrielObviously LoadBindings is firing it (That's what cancel calls)
19:42.21Cairennso, anyone interested in swapping brains? you're more than welcome to have mine.  I'll even throw in this migraine for no extra charge!
19:42.33IrielCair's going to post it?>

19:43.14Cairennthen you aren't registered, because I didn't get it
19:43.16IrielBecause if you say that it's broken because it doesn't fire when you hit OK, then you're reporting it wrong
19:43.17krkayeah
19:43.30IrielI'll post something
19:43.32krkahmm... i remember registering once
19:43.40Cairennmeh, let Iriel post it, his credibility is better than mine
19:43.53krkaSeems like UPDATE_BINDINGS is not triggered when hitting the "Okay" button in t\he keybindings frame after you've changed some key bindings. However, it is tri\ggered if you hit escape when viewing the frame. Obviously this should be the o\ther way around for it to make sense!
19:43.55Cairennthen /msg chanserv identify <pw>
19:43.58krkathat's what i wrote to cair in private
19:44.02IrielYes, you see that's a bad bug
19:44.05Irielbecause you didn't check the code
19:44.33IrielOKAY merely saves the bindings, it doesn't actually change them
19:44.53krkaok, then it should fire upon the change of an individual key binding?
19:45.05IrielI would imagine so, and you tested for that, right?
19:45.10elemahmm I always thought slouken was paid by blizz and blizz pays him because he is the CM of the Interface Forum..?
19:45.13krkawell, i didn't need to
19:45.19krkai assume that blizzards ActionButton code is correct
19:45.24krkaand that is wrong for me
19:45.28Irielelema: he's not a CM, he's a developer (of more important code than UI stuff)
19:45.38Irielhe does his forum stuff because he wants to
19:45.45krkayou can test it yourself: change a keybinding for actionbutton X and see if the hotkey text updates
19:45.50elemaOn the eu borads we haven't got such a "slouken" *dream_of_an_own_slouken*
19:46.19elemaohh  thats really a nice guy
19:46.32elemaheavens, give us more sloukens
19:46.37KirkburnIf only ...
19:47.02Irielkrka: But if you set it, then okay, then go back into the panel, and CANCEL, it does update??
19:47.17Cairennaye, Slouken is actually one of the lead devs, he isn't actually a CM ... he hangs out in the and does stuff for the UI community on his own time, because he wants to
19:47.34wereHamsterIriel, do you know what slouken writes besides of the UI?
19:47.42KirkburnDoesn't this suggest to Blizz that that should be an official positon?
19:47.43krkayes
19:47.47krkaexactly
19:48.02IrielI dont know exactly, but I believe lots on both server and client side.
19:48.07elemathere are so many needed or buggy functions
19:49.17krkai was thinking of hooking the "Okay" click, but that frame doesn't seem to be in lua-space
19:49.35IrielThe okay click is in the XML, and it does SaveBindings
19:49.59IrielThere aren't that many buggy functions
19:50.04krkareally? couldn't even find the frame
19:50.21Irielsearch for 'Okay'
19:50.35elemaokay not as many buggy functions as we need new functions, you are right ^^
19:50.52krkaKeyBindingFrame isn't anywhere
19:50.57elemaI think only about the check for afk function
19:51.09IrielIt's an on-demand addon
19:51.12elemakrka: it is an extra ddon
19:51.12KirkburnOh can I just say: Woo! This is the first time I've been able to go online in my apt since I arrived in august, and since the wheels were set in motion on Oct 21st! Explanation: I'm in Italy.

19:51.41Irielkrka: Can you check that and make sure it's accurate
19:52.01krkai can try!
19:52.26wereHamsterhm.. how can I extract the keybindings code from the data files? Its an addon, not part of the base UI.. and when I extracted the UI from the latest version, I couldn't find any KeyBindings code..
19:52.54IrielDid you look in Interface\AddOns\Blizzard_BindingUI ?
19:52.55elemais there a way to extract the binding of a certain action to a fontstring?
19:52.57krkayes, quite correct Iriel! thanks
19:53.01krkano, not yet
19:53.13IrielThere are a few GetBinding calls
19:53.22krkakrka@Moiraine:~/AddOns/Blizzard_BindingUI$ less Blizzard_BindingUI.pub
19:53.22krka"Blizzard_BindingUI.pub" may be a binary file.  See it anyway?
19:53.23krkahmm
19:53.25IrielGetBindingAction ("KEY") - API
19:53.28IrielGetBindingKey ("COMMAND") - (x) API
19:53.38IrielNot the pub file
19:53.46IrielYou have to EXTRACT THE UI CODE if you want to see it.
19:54.01Irielthe pub file is the digital signature for the code
19:54.04krkai think i have an ancient version of FrameXML
19:54.12wereHamsterkrka, I have the lua and xml file there..
19:54.22wereHamsteras well as Localization.lua
19:54.41wereHamsterits contents are: -- This file is executed at the end of addon load
19:55.59elemathe getbindingkey, how do i use it?
19:56.05IrielYou  give it a binding name
19:56.12elemaa moment first I look at the wiki
19:56.14Irieland it tells you what the key(s) for that binding are
19:56.28elemayou mean "command" is the binding name?
19:56.39Iriellocal key1,key2 = GetBindingKey("SCREENSHOT")
19:56.40Irielfor example
19:57.03elemathanks, you are so good
19:57.29krkaso, an easy fix would be to hook the okay-click and perform LoadBindings() there
19:57.40IrielI suppose so
19:57.47IrielYou could just hook SaveBindings to do a load right after
19:57.56krkaor that :)
19:58.00IrielYou wont catch addons that do dynamic rebinding tho
19:58.32krkahmm... can hook SetBinding too
19:58.41IrielYes, but you can't generate the event
19:59.02IrielYou'd have to do very ugly things to not break anything
19:59.08elemaok guys see ya hopefully tomorrow ;)
19:59.24Irielcya
19:59.26elemagood night ( or which time it is ine the us)
19:59.44krkayes i can generate the event by doing SaveBindings() LoadBindings()
20:01.08krkaand yes, that probably breaks stuff :)
20:02.11IrielIndeed, it breaks cancel completely
20:02.50krkaah, good point
20:03.05krkadamn
20:04.43krkacan't think of any good way around that
20:04.44krka:(
20:04.57wereHamsterwait until slouken fixes this :)
20:05.11krkaor.... i could store all the key bindings when LoadBindings fires
20:05.29IrielI think the SaveBindings hook is a good compromise for now
20:05.40krkayes, that won't break anything atleast
20:05.58krka<PROTECTED>
20:05.58krka<PROTECTED>
20:06.27IrielA SetBindings hack would be this: remember the old binding, set the new one, save, load, then set the old one back, save, and set the new one
20:06.47krkayeah
20:06.50IrielThough, really you have to remember all the changed ones since the last 'real' LoadBinding
20:07.02krkatricky stuff
20:07.05IrielAnd that's just ugly
20:07.10krkaagreed
20:07.20IrielAnd absolutely not worth it for 99.9% of the users 8-)
20:07.27krkayeah, i'll just wait for the fix
20:07.55krkathough... do we really want to trigger UPDATE_BINDINGS on SetBindnig?
20:08.05krkawas it like that before?
20:09.13IrielThat's the only way it makes sense
20:09.18IrielBecause that's when the binding actually changes
20:09.47IrielMaybe we could give it an optional arg1 that is the command that changed
20:11.03AnduinLotharkill the kittens!
20:11.18krkawish we could trigger events :/
20:11.27AnduinLotharyou can
20:11.31AnduinLotharjust not easily
20:11.37IrielNo, you can't
20:11.42AnduinLotharsure you can
20:11.43IrielYou cannot trigger an arbitrary event
20:11.47IrielThere are SOME you can make happen
20:11.55IrielBut that's not triggering events in any useful sense
20:11.59krkacould load first and hook RegisterEvent :P
20:12.04AnduinLotharitterate through global namespace to find frames with OnEvent
20:12.18IrielThat doesn't work for unlinked frames
20:12.22AnduinLotharthen set global event to the name and the appropriate args...
20:12.25IrielAnd you dont know which events they're listening for
20:12.38AnduinLotharso it's grosel innefifient
20:12.44AnduinLothargrossly*
20:12.50Irielyou still can't find out which ones want the event
20:12.55Irielso you can't do it
20:12.58AnduinLothar:P so call um all
20:13.04Irielthat'd break lots of code
20:13.15AnduinLotharmeh, complain complain
20:13.34AnduinLotharitterate through first and hook all the RegisterForEvents
20:13.47AnduinLotharonly works for addons granted
20:14.05AnduinLothar:P ok fine, you can't do it well or easily..
20:14.30AnduinLotharbut you can do it for your own addons with a hook
20:14.53Maldiviawhy even hook for your own addon ?
20:14.55IrielWell yes, you can always call your own OnEvents 8-)
20:14.59AnduinLothar:P
20:15.14AnduinLotharmald, call it from a hook
20:15.40Maldivia:)
20:15.44AnduinLotharas in hook SaveBindings and call your event
20:16.05AnduinLotharmight make your code slightly pritier than calling from the hook
20:16.42AnduinLotharnot that pretty == efficient...
20:16.59AnduinLotharbut you could make it pretty efficient..
20:17.19AnduinLotharor at least fairly efficient..

20:22.51IrielMaldivia : Why? The binding takes effect when it's set, not when it's saved
20:22.54KirkburnWell it does kinda get to me that they appear to think we have crapper computers. Or at least, monitors.
20:23.06AnduinLotharyou don't?
20:23.09AnduinLothar;)
20:23.28MaldiviaIriel: if I call SetBinding, and reload UI - is the binding saved, or only after I call SaveBindings?
20:23.28KirkburnWidescreen laptop here
20:23.48IrielMaldivia : If you set binding, and reload, the binding is not saved
20:23.48AnduinLotharSo just open two sites next to each other :P
20:24.02AnduinLotharthat's what the widescreen was for anyway :)
20:24.07IrielMaldivia : But if you set binding from an addon at startup, then the binding will always be present
20:24.09Kirkburnlol, what an idea. Sorry, I left out 'stupid' :)
20:25.09KirkburnBtw, is there any news news on the 1.10 font stuff?

20:42.27MaldiviaIriel: well, in your scenario, if an addon sets keybindings at startup, I would expect it to call SaveBindings, otherwise when I enter the key-bindings setup screen, and press Cancel, all those key bindings would be lost

20:45.05IrielMaldivia ; You'd want the action buttons to refelect the right bindings
20:45.44wereHamsterI have written an addon that rebinds keys dynamicaly.. depending on in which shapeshift form you are..
20:45.49wereHamsterAnd I don't call SaveBindings() at all..
20:45.58wereHamsteronly SetBinding().. that's all
20:46.44krkaanyone know which units trigger UNIT_AURA events?

20:47.18krka"all of them"?
20:47.25krkai'm pretty sure targettarget doesn't
20:47.28AnduinLotharall of the non-compounds
20:47.35Maldiviahmm... npc ? :)
20:47.52IrielNone of the .+target units ever generate events
20:48.03Irielbut the rest should
20:48.07krkathanks
20:48.15IrielI'm not sure if npc would, but I suspect it might
20:48.23AnduinLothardoes
20:48.23Irielsince it's a "real" unit
20:48.25GenNMX|Thraetargettarget generating events would be messy...what if your target if yourself?

20:50.34Maldiviathey are not parented to UIParent (or one of it's children)
20:50.34GenNMX|ThraeMaldivia: Yeah, but that's a static number. targettarget can be looped forever, like targettargettargettargettargettarget, etc.

20:50.45MaldiviaGenNMX|Thrae: yeah, true
20:50.53krkadoh, that's it of course
20:51.03GenNMX|ThraeDepending on how events are processed, that could get extremely messy
20:51.40krkawell, they could have a system for not generating events for some units more than once
20:51.48krkaso if targettarget == player, only show for player
20:51.54IrielBut that would be silly
20:52.05Irielbecause every addon that wants events would have to know about all the other units
20:52.17Maldiviawell, not much of the [unit]target data is actually cached, the data is "on request", as fas as I know
20:52.20GenNMX|Thraekrka: So, I was wrong about UPDATE_BINDINGS not being the event for updating keybindings?
20:52.31IrielIt's much easier to dispatch all the events for every unit id the entity exists as

22:00.07IrielI suspect he'll start losing sleep and only talking to us on the weekends, and even then, not about WoW 8-)
22:00.12kremontequestion: in a pattern does (.) match just 1 character? (ie (.)(.)(.) matches a,b,c or 1,2,3, and (...) matches abc or 123) ?
22:00.19krkaboobie pattern!
22:00.22IrielKirkburn : Your browser is telling you the 'decompressed' size,possibly
22:00.23AnduinLotharsleep? whats that?
22:00.25krkatriple boobs scare me thouggh
22:00.29Irielkremonte : Yes
22:00.33GenNMX|Thraekremonte: Yes, . matches one character of any type
22:00.34krkareminds me of total recall
22:00.36kremontethanks
22:00.38Irielkremonte : . on its own is any one character
22:00.41GenNMX|ThraeHence why we have .+, which makes 1 or more

22:01.04KirkburnIriel: IE7 isn't reporting a percentage atm. Up to 40 meg now
22:01.30GenNMX|ThraeAnduinLothar: Aha! So that enforces my belief that all the good addons are made by Blizzard employees working directly under slouken, if not slouken himself.
22:01.39KirkburnIriel: Hey, at least it's a good test of my new net connection
22:01.39krkamy god emacs is big... does it come with a decent text editor these days?
22:02.20KirkburnI must work under slouken then. Wonder where he's hiding ...
22:02.43Cairennomg, I am SO not saying anything
22:02.53KirkburnI did wonder where all the private jets in my driveway were coming from ...
22:03.15KirkburnThe trashmen can't keep up with the disposable planes lying around
22:03.45krkathat proves that I'm not a blizzard employee then :)
22:03.53KirkburnUm, I'm now up to 65 meg ... this *is* going to stop isn't it iriel?
22:04.07IrielKirkburn : You're the one who is using IE7 as your ftp client
22:04.12IrielKirkburn : I have no idea what it's doing
22:04.17ShadowdIt should be only about 18 MB
22:04.28GenNMX|ThraeDisposable plane? Yes, slouken is really a mystical elf the size of your thumb that creates powerful works of programming using magic.
22:04.29IrielKirkburn : My guess is it's being "helpful" and decompressing the file
22:04.42KirkburnWhat can I say? It isn't, it's 69meg according to 7zip
22:04.47ShadowdWindows says the decompressed size is 66 MB though
22:05.27KirkburnWindows is reporting the tar file as 69 meg. Maybe IE7 got to it there too ...
22:05.54KirkburnGenNMX|Thrae: is his real name 'tom'?
22:06.25Cairennno, it isn't
22:06.40GenNMX|ThraeSlouken's real name is "Sam", I believe.
22:06.46Cairennyes, it is
22:06.59GenNMX|ThraeIn fact, I wouldn't be surprised if it was "Sam Louken".
22:07.08IrielGenNMX|Thrae : it's not
22:07.12IrielGenNMX|Thrae : the latter, that is
22:07.31GenNMX|ThraeAww, I guess I didn't give the old man enough credit ;)
22:07.31KirkburnSamuel Ouken?

22:07.46Depherioslol
22:08.47wereHamsterI'm wondering if this is a secret blizzard channel ... under what nick does slouken hide?
22:09.05GenNMX|Thraeslouken IS a nick...
22:09.07Cairennit isn't, he doesn't, when he's in channel, he uses slouken
22:09.27wereHamsterGenNMX|Thrae, yeah, but he wouldn't use that nick here.. I guess
22:09.31GenNMX|ThraeWe just established he doesn't just his first initial and last name :D
22:09.47wereHamsterI may be wrong as well..
22:10.11GenNMX|ThraeMaybe it's "Sam Nekuol"
22:10.15KirkburnWell done. I'm guessing there are others here who have been able to establish rather more than that
22:10.19Cairennnope
22:10.28GenNMX|Thrae"Sam Clemens"
22:10.31Kirkburn20 questions time?
22:10.37KirkburnIs it a vegetable?
22:10.47GenNMX|ThraeIs slouken's real name bigger then a bread box?
22:10.55Cairennlol
22:10.58AnduinLothar"a bread box" ?
22:11.07DepheriosXD
22:11.15DepheriosI was going to ask that
22:11.16KirkburnA box which contains the body of christ
22:11.44GenNMX|ThraeOh really? I thought it just contained bread. That's kinda gross.
22:11.52KirkburnNo wait, are you saying u don't know what a bread box is?
22:11.54GenNMX|ThraeIt would have to be pretty big then, too.
22:12.09GenNMX|ThraeHonestly, I never really thought about it.
22:12.19KirkburnNo, not you!
22:12.24KirkburnYes it just contains bread :p

22:17.10Cairennaccording to whom?

22:17.53GenNMX|ThraeOK, who are we stalking next? Tigole?

22:18.27CairennQA, not dev
22:18.54GenNMX|ThraeHe's working in QA, which from my experience, means no one will listen to his ideas until he's part of the "senior" team unfortunately
22:20.08GenNMX|ThraeSome companies have programming departments that treat QA as their mortal enemy. I mean, it's a QA Tester's job to point out all the plain-fact logic and syntax mistakes made in your program!

22:34.28TainHey Tem, someone put up a "proof of concept" addon that sends info to the G15 LCD on another board.  Countdown to new G15 threads on the Interface forums in 3.. 2..
22:35.26Cairennwhat, like this one? http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.aspx?fn=wow-interface-customization&t=315202&p=1&tmp=1#post315202
22:36.07GenNMX|ThraeTain: Addon, as in a real WoW Addon, or does it use some third-party program in tandem?
22:36.48TainUses a third-party memory scanner.  I told the dev it wouldn't be allowed, but I know people will use it until it's added to Warden, or whatever.
22:37.43IrielIt hooks sprintf
22:38.34TemLol good answer: "Except for severe pathological cases, a SavedVariable can be any Lua variable."
22:40.07TainIt is funny that the author didn't think it was agains the EULA/TOS.
22:42.20TemI'm amazed that anyone would be advanced enough to hook sprintf to pull specific info from the game in real-time and NOT know that it would be a violation of the EULA/TOS
22:42.48GenNMX|ThraeHackers are all anarchists ;)
22:43.08ShadowdDid he truely not know it wasn't a violation? Or is he saying something like "I'm not hurting anyway, so it must be okay"
22:43.17Shadowderr, hurting anyone
22:43.45TainHe said he doesn't see how it violates.
22:44.02Maldiviait's a 3rd party program interacting with WoW... that's all it takes :)
22:44.03IrielHe explicitly says he doesn't think it violate
22:44.23KirkburnCosmos users, start showing support for it on the ui.worldofwar.net shoutbox, it's been getting bad press from certain people!
22:44.39TainI'm guessing the thought process is that he isn't modifying WoW in any technical way.

22:46.21wereHamsterDo preloded DLLs violate the EULA/TOS? or does it only concern executables that *modify* WoW data/executables?
22:46.50Maldiviaif it interacts specifically with WoW, it violates...
22:47.09Shadowd(iii) use any third-party software that intercepts, "mines", or otherwise collects information from or through World of Warcraft
22:47.20ShadowdI'd imagine thats one part of it that it's violating from the TOS.
22:47.56wereHamstergreat, I violate this everytime I play WoW..
22:48.44AnduinLotharI think I'll go with "+20 Shirt of Smiting"
22:49.46Maldiviauhh, I have a program that calls SetWindowsHook, to install a global keyboard hook, to catch MM-key pressed... thereby forcing WoW to load my dll on startup...
22:49.58ShadowdYeah, I'm not sure wearing a shirt saying "WTS [Wang] x 1 PST" would go over that well
22:50.07KirkburnThat's weird ... I wasn't expecting to get DoS attacks on my broadband - is that normal?

23:07.02Temwhy?
23:07.05Temfor what purpose
23:07.47IrielYou can write addons that bitch if people edit their toc?
23:08.20KirkburnNot a bad thing
23:08.22Maldiviareleasing 1.10 addons while 1.9 is still live, and it auto-activates the 1.10 stuff when 1.10 is live
23:08.33KirkburnNow that is a good idea
23:09.03IrielMuch of my 1.10 stuff is so I can REMOVE code
23:09.06KirkburnIriel: not a bad thing meaning, I can't understand why people still insist of editing .toc files ... fools.
23:09.08TainEspecially when it comes to things that need to be updated for 1.10, but different functionality for 1.9.
23:09.09Irielso that wouldn't help me 8-(
23:09.20TainIt would have been great for the scaling changes, for example.

23:10.09Irielnod @maldivia
23:10.13TainYes, but you have to add more logic to test for method changes.
23:10.43Maldiviakremonte: yeah... it does
23:10.46IrielIt's going to be a more reliable test that the build number
23:10.55TainReally though does it matter if you can hack around a way to do things today?  It's still nice to have solid information returned.
23:11.02kremonteMaldivia: :|
23:11.04Maldiviakremonte: although, I think it could have been done A LOT easier :)
23:11.07kremontei don't understand how it works
23:11.26kremonteyou see, all i want to do is scan the tooltip for all it's stats
23:11.31TainIf the build number says one thing and it doesn't provide functionality that that build number is supposed to have, then there's a bigger issue.
23:11.33kremontedo some math with them, then add a white line on the bottom ><
23:11.41KirkburnRumours, rumours: Rumor 2: At next E3, MS will announce a parternship with Blizzard that
23:11.41Kirkburnwill bring World of Warcraft exclusively to 360. The deal is
23:11.42Kirkburndone, and Blizzard is working on porting the game and a console
23:11.42Kirkburncontrol scheme. This game will also include a unannounced
23:11.42Kirkburnexpansion that the PC gamers will have to wait about a month to get
23:11.42Kirkburnafter we get this game. Only 360 gamers will be on specific 360
23:11.44Kirkburnservers, the game will include voice chat, and
23:11.46Kirkburnit wouldn't work with PC gamers.
23:11.53Kirkburn*oh you STUPID thing
23:12.11IrielI meant in terms of having to check for point releases, and unexpected function pullouts during QA, and all that
23:12.35IrielHm, i'd have to get a 360 just to test my addons
23:12.37Iriel8-)
23:12.43TainFor most functionality you should only need to be checking for prod release numbers.
23:12.57IrielI think they would probably want to wait until it's a console that normal people can BUY
23:13.03KirkburnWhat kind of incompetent page designer makes every line an actual new line :s

23:16.18IrielDoes arcane missiles work reliably now? I haven't played my mage in a while
23:16.23Temno it doesn't
23:16.24TainIt would likely be a different team entirely, with a different budget anyway.
23:16.35Maldiviaif by reliable, you mean 95% of the time, it works - then yes
23:16.55TainI haven't played my 60 mage in at least a year probably.
23:17.06Temit still does the "take an unreasonable ammount of mana and let you sit there channeling *something* for 5 second without actually doing any damage" thing from time to time

23:19.04Maldiviacladhaire: combat events is what the client *think* is happening, not what's actually happening
23:19.22TainStupid client.
23:19.39kremonteMaldivia: the client still thinks it used up the cooldown though. and it does. :)
23:19.49TemThe other day in WSG I was trying to catch a rogue flag carrier.  I was about 20 yards off so I hit blink.  I went *backwards* and the rogue capped the flag where I could have stopped him long enough for my teammates to kill and regain the flag.
23:19.54Maldiviakremonte: yeah - I know

23:20.09ForgottenLordsgotta love lag
23:20.13TainOne of the things that was funny about EQ when I played is that sometimes you could successfully cast a spell after you died.
23:20.14cladhaireMaldavia: Yes, I know.
23:20.46kremonteMaldivia: by the way, is there any simple way just to add a line to GameTooltip after reading what's on it?
23:20.55Temand for the record, Iriel, I really like your event idea.
23:20.57Irielkremonte : Call AddLine then Show
23:21.00MaldiviaGameTooltip:AddLine(...)
23:21.27kremonteis it possible in just /script thou?
23:21.29TainA drunken debauchery event?
23:21.35MaldiviaAnother Blink bug... if you blink while falling - where previously, that would/could save you from fall damage, now freezes the game, and blink you to the ground with full fall damage...
23:21.54Temoccasionally frostbolt does no damage, takes my mana, AND causes aggro
23:22.01TemYAY!
23:22.07MaldiviaResisted
23:22.10Temnope
23:22.15TainWell Blink shouldn't save you from fall damage.  Not good to replace on ebug with another.  But still. :)
23:22.21TemThat's what I used to think
23:22.21kremontethat wouldnt cause you aggro =P
23:22.31Tembut I checked the combat log, and no resist message
23:22.33ShadowdIt was fun being able to live using PW:S though Tain
23:22.47Temmeh, the fall damage trick is just that, a trick
23:22.50Maldiviawell, a hostile spell will always cause aggro, no matter if it hits or not
23:23.05Temright, but there is no message of hit or miss
23:23.14Temso it's like something got lost somewhere
23:23.17TainThat's why you have ... uh... the feather spell.
23:23.23MaldiviaSlow Fall
23:23.36TemYeah that spell makes me a little angry
23:23.38TemPriests have a better one
23:23.44Temdoes the same and more
23:23.50TainI remember jumping down somewhere with Slow Fall to see what was down there.
23:23.50IrielPriests have help from God
23:23.50Temfor the same reagent cost
23:23.55Tembut lasts for 2 minutes
23:23.56TainAs I slow-fell into elite giants.
23:23.57Maldiviaonly thing I have about Levitate, is that you can't jump with levitate
23:24.08Teminstead of a weak 30 seconds
23:24.12KirkburnI remember a fun time as a warlock going against a caster. The game froze, I never saw anything hit me from full health then I died and rezzed. Whilst running back to my corpse TEN shadow bolts hit me in slow succession, the last one as I neared my corspe 5 mins later!
23:24.39MaldiviaSounds like the Arcane Missiles bug :)
23:25.02TemI wish they would have left the AM infinite distance bug in
23:25.08MaldiviaI've been killed by arcane missiles in BG, ported to a grave yard, ressed, and then got hit by more arcane missiles
23:25.08cladhaireTem: that one rocked =)
23:25.09Temat least until they fixed the rest of the bugs ith it
23:25.14KirkburnWhat was that?
23:25.31ShadowdAM had unlimited range basically, so you could "snipe" people in AB almost from the mill.
23:25.37MaldiviaTem: OHH, I loved that bug - made defending nodes in AB SO easy :)
23:25.44Temyeah :)
23:25.52AnduinLotharAM?
23:25.57Temarcane missiles
23:25.58MaldiviaArcane Missiles
23:25.58AnduinLotharnm
23:26.00AnduinLotharright
23:26.13AnduinLothartook me a sec, no mage here
23:26.30TemI like the way they are going to review Shamen before mages
23:26.37ShadowdAnd rogues
23:26.40KirkburnWhat's the current order?
23:26.44Temas an objective person I find the humor in that
23:26.48Temas a mage, I weep
23:26.57ShadowdPriest -> Shaman -> Rogue -> Mage I though?
23:27.02TemI think that's right
23:27.07KirkburnU need fixes though, not class reviews surely?
23:27.22TemThe mage class has room for improvement
23:27.28Tembut the largest issues are bugs
23:27.30KirkburnSo do they all
23:27.34ShadowdThe Rogue class really doesn't need a class review, mages need it more then we do.
23:27.44KirkburnIt's not set in stone tho is it
23:27.50Temgod I hope not
23:28.06KirkburnShaman it pretty def after priest afaik
23:28.12ShadowdIriel: Didn't realize that it was the EditBox eating the key board event. but is there any way to still get the event and keeping the EditBox in the same frame?
23:28.13TemI don't see why
23:28.13KirkburnBut the others are prelim
23:28.29KirkburnMaybe they'll get 'nerfed'
23:28.40TemI find that hard to believe
23:28.51KirkburnOf course, if shaman don't require much they can look at other classes at the same time
23:28.52Temevery class that got it's review was buffed
23:28.57Temseverely in some cases
23:29.07Tem(a la beast master hunter)
23:29.11Shadowdbeat me to it!
23:29.30MaldiviaShadowd: hmm, dont have auto focus on the editbox, then it will only "eat" the events, when you actually have it selected...
23:29.52KirkburnBtw, what IRC progs do people suggest?
23:29.56MaldiviaI'm really looking forward to the priest changes
23:29.59TemI'm on xChat atm
23:30.03AnduinLotharxchat
23:30.03ShadowdThanks Maldivia
23:30.12TemMaldivia: yeah they look nice
23:30.27ShadowdDid they post anything new on the priest changes since Friday?
23:30.34TemHaven't looked
23:30.57KirkburnEr, it's not free
23:30.58MaldiviaXChat - yes...
23:31.00MaldiviaKirkburn: http://www.silverex.org/
23:31.07ShadowdPW:S is already annoying enough though
23:31.14Temhehe
23:31.15MaldiviaKirkburn: it's free :)
23:31.28Ktron|afkKirkburn; you on windows? if so, I'm using a version of xchat too... let me find what build for you
23:31.49ShadowdIt's not that bad as a rogue VS priest, but it's becomes a pain on warrior VS priest. That may also because i'm using a TUF/Rank 10 PVP gear though.
23:31.50TemRecently I had an editbox this in it's XML:  <OnEscapePressed> this:ClearFocus() </OnEscapePressed>
23:32.07Tempressing Escape did nothing
23:32.17Ktron|afkI'm using the daemon404 build of xchat for windows
23:32.34TemI had to log out using mouse clicks in order to get keyboard focus back
23:32.36Ktron|afkhttp://falcao.homelinux.org/~daemon404/
23:32.42cladhaireI'm definitely looking forward to the changes for priests
23:32.54ShadowdI'm interested in seeing how they change the Holy tree
23:33.02MaldiviaI'm using Silverex' 2.6.0-2 build: http://www.silverex.org/download/
23:33.22KirkburnWell what should *I* use? :)
23:33.39Temthough I'm a little concerned about the greater heal being shortened to a 3 second cast
23:34.00MaldiviaKirkburn: doesn't really matter, shouw be the same, more or less...
23:34.03Temit will make Renew and Prayer of Healing the only heals that get full +healing bonus
23:34.06ShadowdHave they posted what the new amount it will heal is going to be? I can't imagine they would keep a 2.5 heal that can do about 3k non crit.
23:34.26ShadowdOr maybe it was 4,000 non crit. Can't really remember.
23:35.08Maldiviagheal Rank 5 (AQ drop) is : 2618 to 2922 - without any talents
23:35.20Maldiviawill probably be lowered 25%
23:35.28Maldiviasince casting time is lowered 25%
23:35.43Kirkburnwill receive an approximate 10% improvement to mana efficiency
23:36.10Maldiviaprobably just a lower mana use, instead of an increased healing
23:38.02Maldiviaif it's lowered 25%, that would mean a 1950-2200 heal, in 2.5sec
23:38.18Maldiviaand more, when +healing talents are applied
23:40.03KirkburnI think slouken will be disappointed with the lack of response to his announcement ... he even put an exclamation mark!
23:42.27TainI know it probably makes me a bad person, but I emailed the G15 author with suggestions on how to make his Lua code not run every OnUpdate.
23:42.42Depherioslol
23:42.44Maldiviahehe
23:42.54Maldiviahe asked for lua help :)
23:43.41MaldiviaI broke the board :|

23:56.38KtronI wish that we could connect to/talk to people in World of Warcraft without joining the game... like, didn't at least one other MMO use IRC (I think WoW uses IRC roughly) and allow people who weren't playing to still chat with players?
23:56.43KtronI think Bnet works like that
23:56.58Depheriosbnet doesnt' work like that really
23:57.04Depheriosbut you could connect with things like bnetbuddy
23:58.37Ktronwell, regardless, I wish there was 'wowbuddy'
23:58.44Depheriosditto
23:59.18Ktrona way to see who is online ingame/online not ingame/offline and talk to people would be really nice...
