irclog2html for #wowi-lounge on 20060504

00:00.50KirovConsidering it's half the price of the 6800 Vanilla for the same card, it's a huge deal
00:00.59KirovThere's a 128 meg version for $100 too
00:01.16KirovThe main reason for XT vs. GT or vanilla is it adds support for SLI
00:03.47KemayoOkay
00:08.28KemayoIt's a pain searching for reviews for all these cards.

00:18.50KarlKFIright, but this won't be dependant on the client local so i need it independant

00:21.40netcurse:)
00:21.45netcursegive me some mins
00:23.45KarlKFIanyone know of a way to do the conversion to utf on command line with python or java?
00:24.06norgannaso KarlKFI, arg1 = locale, arg2 = addon name/set, arg3 = table of  localization key => translation
00:24.29IrielIn java code you mean?
00:24.44norgannawhich conversion karl?
00:24.48IrielOr are you looking for a command line invocation?
00:24.54KarlKFIya iriel, so it prints like fran\195\167ais
00:25.02norgannafrom /123/456 notation to utf you mean?
00:25.09norgannaother way eh?
00:25.12KarlKFIya
00:26.00IrielI could tell you what you'd put in a program to do it, but it's longer than a command line 8-)
00:26.02norgannai've got a perl script if you like
00:26.09KarlKFILocalization.RegisterAddonStrings(locale, addon, stringTable, eraseOrig)
00:27.00KarlKFIshouldn't need any eraseOrig int he normal localization files
00:27.17KarlKFIperl'd be fine
00:29.21KarlKFIdoing it manually using http://titus.uni-frankfurt.de/unicode/unitestx.htm is a pain
00:32.10norgannado you have lua installed?
00:32.31norgannait's easy if you have lua installed...
00:35.11KarlKFIyup
00:35.13norgannaanyhow, perl script, i found it:   perl -p 's/([\200-\377])/sprintf("\\%d",ord($1))/eg;'
00:38.01KarlKFIer... Can't open perl script "s/([\200-\377])/sprintf("\\%d",ord($1))/eg;": No such file or directory
00:38.24norgannaoops - make that -pe
00:39.17KarlKFImuch better, thx
00:39.46KarlKFInow... where do i save that..
00:40.10norgannaer?
00:40.15KarlKFIspose i should just have a file conversion
00:40.27KarlKFIthe command line works fine, thx
00:40.45KarlKFIbut if i don't save if somewhere i'll forget it yesterday
00:40.52norgannayou can make it into a perl script if you like... are you using unix?
00:41.03KarlKFImac, so yes
00:41.13norgannaahh - mac :)  <3

00:42.04norgannajust plunk that into a file and then "chmod ugo+x" it
00:42.10KarlKFIya, thx
00:42.32Corrodiasman.. some of these unicode characters use 3-byte UTF-8 representation? i wasn't aware that unicode ever used more than 2 bytes
00:42.41norgannait does
00:43.15Corrodiasoh, never mind, i see the unicode numbers are also listed, and those are only one and a half bytes
00:43.39Corrodiascall me captain observant, eh?
00:43.42norgannaUTF-16 only ever uses 2 bytes, but because UTF-8 can only use half the byte (the <127 chars are always latin) sometimes it has to use up to 5 bytes
00:43.52zenzelezzUTF-32 uses 4
00:44.18norgannaUTF-128 always... er... one-day will use 16

00:47.36Kirovchinese has something like 60,000 characters
00:48.00Kirovthey only have the basic ones
00:48.11Corrodiasa lot of the characters on that unicode page show up as ? to me. is this a failing of my font?

00:50.24ToastTheifTain!
00:50.33KirovThere's also like 10 different versions of written chinese
00:52.06KirovAccording to Wikipedia, there are 47035 characters in the language, but only 2000 are actually used.
00:53.08Kirovthough wow probably uses only the phonetic characters
00:53.42Corrodiastime for breakfast! [away]
00:53.45KarlKFIwhy are so many unused?
00:54.12KirovKarl - Because the chinese writen language is a pictographic writing form.
00:54.17KarlKFIi know
00:54.19Kirovie: Everyone word has it's own symbol
00:54.23KarlKFIright
00:54.32Kirovs/Everyone/Every/
00:54.49KarlKFIwhy have so many if the majority aren't used. Solely for artistic purposes?
00:55.06KirovKemayo - getting the XT?
00:55.12KemayoYup.
00:55.22KemayoI am easily swayed by peer pressure.
00:55.40KirovKarl - It's part of their class system.

00:56.24KirovOnly people who got education could read for a long time, and only monks who study the language their whole life can read it all.
00:56.43Kirovso, the common man wouldn't even be able to read stuff written by the upper class
00:56.59KirovAnd the upper class wouldn't be able to read the spritual texts
00:58.52KarlKFIhey, lets make another super-upper class... now we just need to memorize 20,000 made up pictograms to represent our superiority
00:59.00KirovJapanese is similar, they have Kanji and Kana
00:59.43KirovKanji has some 80,000 characters, Kana (which is their phonetic written language) only has about 20
00:59.59KemayoAnd I discovered when I reached checkout that they're throwing in a free copy of Age of Empires 3.  Not that I particularly care, but...
01:00.23Kirovhehe
01:00.34KarlKFIi'll take it, feed it to my mac and let the disk cry it's unused life away
01:00.37IrielAoE3 is kinda fun tho
01:01.01KemayoI've never really been a strategy games sort of person.
01:01.11KemayoNow if they'd thrown in a copy of Dreamfall, on the other hand...

01:30.12Josh_Borkeany exciting discussions lately?
01:30.50IrielKarlKFI : Not use it? It's got to call it so it can set up the button
01:31.50KarlKFIi got it, just have to pass nil and init manually
01:32.04KarlKFIUIDropDownMenu_Initialize(this, nil, "MENU")
01:32.05KarlKFIthis.initialize = Localization.LoadDropDownMenu;
01:32.40KarlKFIUIDropDownMenu_Initialize calls the init function when it sets it, I don't want it to call it until I open a menu
01:35.19KarlKFIlooks like everyhting works..
01:35.20KarlKFIand unspecified translations correctly default to the client locale
01:35.51KarlKFIbeyond that it should default to the addon default locale, but that's hard to tell when my client's the same as the addon default

02:00.41MentalPoweryou did?
02:01.21KarlKFIseems to work
02:01.30KarlKFIjust missing some german
02:01.37KarlKFIand i need to test it embedably
02:05.42KarlKFIbut it works so far, you can sellect a locale the first time you run it from a list of availible locales used in currently implimented addons
02:06.24KarlKFIand then it calls their registered callback to update any text that wont be updated later using Localization.GetString
02:06.50KarlKFIwhich can of course be shortened to an addon local func: local function TEXT(key) return Localization.GetString("YourAddonName", key) end
02:07.18KarlKFIso you can just call TEXT("key")
02:07.58Josh_Borkewhat's this addon do?
02:08.53KarlKFIEmbeddable addon for selecting a global localization for addons.
02:09.49Josh_Borkesimilar to babblelib?
02:10.17KarlKFIif you mean what has become Babylonian, then yes
02:10.42KarlKFIexcept it's an embedable addon with more robust features and a sellection frame
02:11.04KarlKFIas oppossed to just a strait lib file
02:11.09Josh_Borkeah, ok
02:11.31KarlKFIThe plan is to convert Cosmos to use it
02:11.59Josh_Borkehttp://www.wowace.com/forums/index.php/topic,1310.0.html is what i was talking about, i don't know anything about Babylonian
02:12.43KarlKFIBabylonian is what's used in Auctioneer, EnhTooltips, Gatherer and Enchantrix i believe
02:13.26KarlKFIcoupled with norganna's web based open localization system it should work wonders for localizing large projects
02:14.48KarlKFIsounds similar to BabbleLib, cep it's not ace driven and makes use of Iriel's VirtualFrames addon to have entirely lua frame code
02:15.53TainSo I got completely caught up in looking forward to Half Life 2: Episode One and I'm now about oh probably 75% through Half Life 2 again.
02:15.57KarlKFIfunny that ckknight never spoke up and said he made something similar tho
02:16.44KarlKFIah, his has a substantial amount of translations in it already
02:18.06KarlKFIcalles, trees, locations
02:18.09KarlKFIclasses*
02:18.48KarlKFImine is merely the lib, w/o all the included translations. more broad scoped for localizing everything
02:19.05ToastTheifTain!
02:19.08ckknightwhat what?
02:19.58ckknightwhat does it provide that BabbleLib doesn't?
02:20.13ckknightjw
02:20.28KarlKFIyours seems to be more of a library of prelocalized strings
02:21.16KarlKFImine is a lib for dynamic sellection of addon localization
02:21.17TainI didn't do it.
02:22.56ckknightah
02:22.56ckknightyea
02:22.59ckknightdifferent, then
02:23.13Josh_Borkeok bye all :-)
02:23.13*** part/#wowi-lounge Josh_Borke (n=Josh@antimatter.stl.gtri.gatech.edu)
02:24.07KarlKFIin fact using mine you could impliment yours simply by having a table for each language
02:25.35KarlKFIthen use Localization.GetClientString if it needed to be in the client locale or Localization.GetString to be in the user's prefered readable language
02:25.35ckknightbut that is horribly bloated
02:26.05ckknightby having functions wrap tables, then destroyed if not used, it makes it a lot more lightweight
02:26.17ckknightalso destroyed as soon as they are used
02:26.40KarlKFIdepends on what you mean by bloated. my addon has an option to delete unused
02:26.59KarlKFIyou can also unregister them if you dont plan on using them
02:27.05ckknightmine never creates the tables/functions of the unneeded languages in the first place
02:27.27KarlKFIit also doesn't allow for dynamic translation
02:27.40ckknightwhat do you mean by that?
02:28.15norgannalike the user can change the locale that they see messages in, independantly of the client locale
02:29.44norgannafor example, a spanish user, using the english client can change the messages to spanish if they prefer
02:29.47KarlKFIso if it's part of the code and you need the client localized version, that's availible with Localization.GetClientString  but if the user's gonna be looking at it use Localization.GetString and they can set that to be in any availible language they want
02:45.21KarlKFIif an addon is loaded dynamicly is VARIABLES_LOADED called after?
02:45.50MentalPowernop
02:46.15KarlKFIhmm, so i need to watch ADDON_LOADED too
02:46.25MentalPowervars loaded is only called after all of the non-dinamically loaded addons have recieved their respective ADDON_LOADED calls
02:47.00MentalPowerso its completelly unnecessary to register for vars loaded on a LoD addon
02:49.03KarlKFIk
02:49.46KarlKFIhave to catch ADDON_LOADED tho incase someone wants to use Localization on a dynamic loaded addon
02:50.25MentalPowerwell, lemme rephrase
02:50.45MentalPowerif you register for addon loaded, you don't need to register for vars loaded
02:50.50MentalPowerthat would be redundant
02:51.09KarlKFIexcept in an addon that can potentially be loaded either way
02:51.14KarlKFIor both
02:51.26MentalPowerthe startup goes like this...
02:51.32KarlKFIi know how it works
02:51.57KarlKFIi want it either on VARIABLES_LOADED or on any later ADDON_LOADED
02:52.14MentalPowerkhaos(addon loaded), auctioneer(addon loaded), stubby(addon loaded) VARS_LOADED     minutes later RandomAddOn(Addon loaded)
02:52.18KarlKFIand since it can load both before and after VARIABLES_LOADED i need to reg both
02:52.32MentalPowerthats my point, you don't
02:52.45MentalPoweraddon loaded fires for every addon
02:52.50KarlKFIi know
02:52.51MentalPowernot only those that are LoD
02:53.01TainIt also fires for your mom.
02:53.02KarlKFIi only want it to fire once on first launch
02:53.17KarlKFInot x times for as many addons as have it embedded
02:55.52KarlKFIand this is what you get: http://wow.pastebin.com/697333
02:56.25KarlKFIwas just rying to see if there was a better way w/o duplicating code
02:56.49KarlKFIforgot a ) int eh first if
02:58.04MentalPowerah, I see what you mean now
02:58.53MentalPowerhowever that would also fire once per every LoD addon that loads after vars loaded
02:59.11MentalPowerregardless of whether it uses your library or not
02:59.11KarlKFIthat's the idea
03:00.04KarlKFIthe only way to stop that would be a flag on registering that is niled on vars loaded
03:00.10KarlKFIbut it's not really worth it
03:01.07KarlKFIif you have already picked a language it will call Localization.RemoveUnusedLocales() which will do nothing
03:01.27KarlKFIif you haven't picked a language it'll ask again
03:02.10KarlKFIif you haven't been prompted and haven't picked a language then the LoD addon must be loading the lib and you'll be asked
03:02.29MentalPowernice
03:03.21KarlKFIso the only thing the flag would gain would be to stop RemoveUnusedLocales from being run again
03:03.43KarlKFIwhihc basicly would iterate the locale/addon tree
03:03.59KarlKFIbut not actually change anything
03:04.40KarlKFIi don't think it's worth optimizing
03:05.03KarlKFIanyway... need to make the menu sellect from only availible locales
03:07.09KarlKFIoops, forgot to translate "Available Languages"... french and german anyone?
03:09.30MentalPowerwb Cairenn
03:09.35Cairennthanks MentalPower

03:10.07KarlKFIgood to hear

03:11.45KarlKFIheh, i had already abstracted it enough to put strait into a loop
03:12.33KarlKFIso who wants to play with ym new toy?
03:17.48zespri_work"verfugbare Sprachen" I think. But what do I know
03:17.59zespri_worku with umlaut
03:24.25KarlKFIwhat's the command to see what instances you're bound to?
03:26.12norganna<PROTECTED>
03:26.31KarlKFIhmmm, now to convert an addon to use Localization to see if it really works
03:26.44KarlKFI<PROTECTED>
03:26.47KarlKFIthx
03:27.20KarlKFIhmm, what small Cosmos addon should I convert first..
03:28.24KarlKFIoh norganna, I saw something about khaos registration in Bab, did you have to reregister or something?
03:28.33zespri_worksimple you just need to instal a locolized client and run it
03:29.01KarlKFIno no, Localization is the name of the addon :P
03:29.03norgannauh, when the locale changes, all the strings in khaos need to be reloaded
03:29.09KarlKFIkk
03:29.41norganna(because khaos doesn't support dynamic localizations [yet])
03:29.56KarlKFIactually
03:30.00KarlKFIi think it does
03:30.11KarlKFIyou just have to supply a function instead of a string
03:30.39KarlKFIi know that works for feedback, i think it works for most strings
03:31.12KarlKFIjust make an inline func and it should work
03:31.25KarlKFIfunction() TEXT("key") end
03:31.39KarlKFIi'll test it

03:42.15KarlKFIhmm, it didn't like that, but it shouldn't be too hard to fix
03:43.23MentalPowerwell, if that is supported it would greatly simplify Babylonian and our khaos registering code
03:43.45KarlKFIwell hopefully my addon will make Babylonian obsolete
03:45.11MentalPowerquestion, how does it handle different addons using the same library?
03:45.24MentalPowerie, willl changing the language on one change it for all?
03:45.38KarlKFIyou sellect a global preference
03:45.39MentalPoweror is each addon's preference regarded separately
03:47.02KarlKFIi could make it addon specific but it gets a lot more messy and I didn't really see too much benifit
03:47.41MentalPowercan't wait to try it
03:48.19KarlKFIwell it works fine now, trying to get khaos to be more friendly atm
03:50.15KarlKFIlol, wonder what 'zig' is
03:58.59zespri_workyeah =) I wondered that too =))))
03:59.11KarlKFIsilly alex

04:01.12KarlKFIa few words come to mind
04:09.40Kremonteany way to set a text="" in xml with a variable?
04:09.46Kremonteor do i need to do settext() on load ;x
04:10.11KarlKFIyou can use a variable for the most part
04:10.20KarlKFIall caps i think
04:10.28Kremonteit's not working ;(
04:10.35KarlKFIwhat're u trying?
04:10.40Kremontedo i need to load localization before xml in toc?
04:10.53Kirovyes
04:11.06Kremontethat could by why X)
04:11.12Kremontecan i concatenate variables?
04:11.22KarlKFIprolly not
04:11.27Kremonteyea it worked except the concatenating
04:12.41Kremonteboo.
04:14.59KarlKFIunfortunetly you don't seem to be able to localize bindings
04:15.05KarlKFIwell
04:15.08KarlKFIpost onload
04:15.11Kremonteyea i've never done these localization shenanigans
04:18.26KarlKFIwell, I got titles working with dynamic locs
04:18.47KarlKFIChatScroll didn't have any options tho, lol. couldn't test um
04:19.42KarlKFIguess I'll have to try something bigger
04:20.14KarlKFIhow bout FriendsFacts
04:28.58KarlKFIworks now mentalpower
04:29.08KarlKFIwas only a few line change
04:30.44KarlKFIjust gotta make sure all your strings end with a ; or , when you're converting localization to use Localization.RegisterAddonStrings
04:30.50KarlKFIelse the table errors
04:31.31KarlKFIi'll commit the updated Khaos in a bit
04:31.45KarlKFIgotta merge it with whatever's in the trunk
04:37.47KarlKFIChange live on the next hour: [Khaos]
04:37.48KarlKFI-Now allows for dynamic addon text and helptext using a function that evaluates to a string at runtime. Feel free to localize at will without reregistering!
04:38.54KarlKFIand with that, my work is done
04:40.19KarlKFIspose i should write some docs
04:40.57KarlKFIi'll just do it on the wiki
04:48.09TemKemayo: you around?
04:48.15KemayoIndeed.
04:48.45Kemayos/./ I am./
04:49.11TemI have a 'feature request' for QuestsFu
04:49.20KemayoWhat would you like?
04:49.30Temthe 'done' text on quests
04:49.32Temgreen
04:50.12KemayoThat's doable.  I can even make the 'failed' text red, I suppose.
04:53.53Kemayo...I really need to sit down and refactor QuestsFu.  Many features have been added, and FuBar's API has changed a lot since I wrote it.
04:54.57Temcool
05:01.54KemayoOkay, all done and (briefly) tested.
05:02.21Temyay
05:02.22KemayoIf you don't mind getting it from SVN, it's been committed to svn.wowace.com.
05:02.26Temfnialy in the SVN
05:02.47Temoh heh, I just noticed something kinda funny
05:03.12Temif you shift click a line on the tooltip, it adds the quest to the standard quest tracker
05:04.35*** join/#wowi-lounge duke|ib (i=dukeku@c-67-160-162-146.hsd1.or.comcast.net)
05:04.38KemayoYup.  I find it strangely useful.  I'm very keyboard oriented, so mousing up to the bar is a pain for a quest that I want to keep tabs on.  :)
05:06.06Temdetatched tooltip ftw
05:06.52KemayoThat winds up being information overload for me -- even if I collapse all the areas I don't care about, there's still a lot of extraneous text.
05:07.15Temit's working out very well for me
05:07.17TemI really like it
05:07.24TemI was hoping that shift-click would add the quest name and level to the the ChatFrameEditBox
05:07.45KemayoThat's Alt-click.
05:07.51Kemayo...and it doesn't get the level.  I should add that.
05:08.03Kemayo(Ctrl-click shares the quest with any nearby party members.)
05:08.26Temaaah
05:12.52KemayoOkay... it'll now add the quest to the chatbox like "[20:Some Quest]"
05:15.28Temsvn update *
05:15.38Temer... wrong place
05:15.41Temstupid focus...
05:25.09KemayoBut at least I know you're dedicated.  :)
05:25.35TemI love addons in the svn
05:25.41Temit's *way* easier to update
05:26.38hasteI agree Tem
05:27.10KemayoI'm using it for that as well, I confess.

07:31.59KarlKFIrather than Embeddable lua
07:33.46KarlKFIgrr, i pushed my addon out too soon, now I have to go add option, but discouraged globals
07:33.53KarlKFIoptional*
07:34.39Miravlix_Embeddable scripting with Lua
07:34.52Miravlix_It's just that Lua is embeddable into C
07:34.59KarlKFIya ya... he means embeddable language
07:35.22KarlKFIas oppossed to embedding addons inside addons
07:35.44KarlKFIdunno, is lib embedding unique to lua?
07:36.07Miravlix_Yeah, but embedding is kinda only special for WoW, normal lua wouldn't have those issues
07:36.34KarlKFIno, but if I could embed C within C i could be on to something
07:37.12KarlKFIcourse most of those are unneccissary due to distribution techniques
07:48.33krka|workhm... isn't embedding kinda like distributing dll:s along with your program and only load them if they're not already loaded?
07:48.44KarlKFIsomething liek that
07:49.24Miravlix_Well, you usually install the dll's so only one version is on the system

07:50.31MiravlixEmbedding isn't really a used technoligy in Windows software.
07:50.59MiravlixLinux don't use embedding either.
07:52.14MiravlixIf Blizzard created a installaddon.exe with lua controled install language
07:53.46MiravlixThen we could make some libraryaddon where we install all our libraries and could make a organization system
07:55.00MiravlixHmm, wouldn't really need to be done by Blizzard, we could just assosiate the installer with some extension and start distributing all our files as something.xyz
07:57.09krka|worknot sure i follow
07:57.17krka|workwhat are you trying to solve?
07:57.37MiravlixWe would all distribute our addons as addon.glu
07:58.08krka|workand make it even harder for users to install it?
07:58.08MiravlixAnd have a program assoiated with glu files, thats simply a zip file containing. install.lua and <directorywithaddon>
07:58.23MiravlixNo, it would make it easier
07:58.34MiravlixThey just download and open it and it install itself
07:59.23KarlKFImm, double click install and download deps
08:00.08krka|workjust embedding libs seems easier to me
08:00.20KarlKFIeasier for who
08:00.38krka|workdevelopers
08:00.45KarlKFInot really
08:00.54KarlKFInot really easier for users either
08:01.00KarlKFIcan't beat double-click
08:01.34KarlKFIjust means the libs need dependable dl urls
08:03.12KarlKFIsomeone jsut has to code something that's cross platform
08:03.30KarlKFIotherwise it's already shown it wont get addopted
08:04.51MiravlixHmm, I wonder if someone has coded stuff like this already.
08:05.05KarlKFIthere are a few installers
08:05.11KarlKFInothing double click that i know of
08:05.58KarlKFIsome batch files
08:06.29KarlKFIsome apple scripts
08:06.45krka|workpython is probably the best choice
08:07.04krka|workbut the developer of an addon would need need to know the download url to its library
08:07.11KarlKFIright
08:07.18KarlKFIsame problem we usually have
08:07.26krka|workand there needs to be a clear way to compare library versions
08:07.39KarlKFIparsing toc i spose
08:07.47KarlKFIif the version was standard
08:07.48krka|workwhat about forked addons?
08:07.50krka|worklike Titan
08:08.07KarlKFIthe link wouldn't be the same

08:08.29krka|workyou have to go by addon name
08:08.59KarlKFIyou'd still be providing a link for a compatible version
08:09.10krka|workyes, but that may not be the latest version
08:09.12KarlKFIthe only diffuculty would be overwritting
08:09.18KarlKFItrue
08:09.19krka|workyour current may be better but have a lower version number
08:09.22krka|workif they are forks
08:09.37KarlKFIperhaps a prompt for each lib
08:09.43KarlKFIwith toc info
08:10.18KarlKFIand current toc info if you're possibly replacing an addon
08:10.32krka|workwhat i'd like to see more than this, is a program that hooks into the browser and watches downloaded zips, check the contents of the zip to see if it's an addon, and if so, it installs it
08:10.39KarlKFIthe Cosmos app already has toc scanning written in
08:10.45krka|workthen downloading dependencies would be easy

08:12.39MiravlixIt has many X-windows front ends
08:13.12MiravlixBut I was looking for something that embeddeds lua and works on Mac, Windows and Linux
08:13.21krka|workapt has very nice version handling
08:13.31krka|workyou can make your program require that a lib is of a certain version, or interval
08:13.50krka|workand apt automatically detects problems and lets you choose how to handle it
08:14.38Kalrothdebian stable is very strict handled though, it wouldn't work for addons
08:14.52Kalrothand debian unstable is kinda meh, I got a lot of fucked up installed by using it
08:17.12MiravlixBy using a standard zip/gzip format, with just a minimal added information, someone that doesn't want to use the installer, can still install the files
08:17.18KarlKFIthere we go, added optional Global string assignment
08:17.52MiravlixJust assign your zip program to handle .glu files and you just have to ignore install.lua in the root of it

08:40.05Kalerenderg'day, wondering if anyone here is familiar with the WoW UI Designer program, got some newbie questions I need to bounce off of someone a bit more knowledgeable
08:42.07Elkanoask your questions :) If so knows the answer he may post it :)
08:43.02Kalerenderwondering how to put in a drop-down list directory thingy.. so say +Azeroth  and if I click the + box it'll drop down to show the zones in azeroth (obviously I need to put in what I want, just need the framework)
08:43.27KarlKFIcomplicatedly
08:43.38KarlKFIthe UI designer only does the gui
08:43.51KarlKFIi believe you have to code the drop down manually
08:43.58Elkanowell, I'm not using the designer part of the program; I only use it to check how my XML will look ^^'
08:44.10Kalerenderbugger, guess I'll get around to that bit later
08:44.30Elkanoafair the designer had some problems with dropdowns anyways...
08:44.52Kalerenderok
08:45.29Kalerenderyou two sound like the whole lua/xml thing doesn't sound like baked spaghetti, mind if I tell you what I want to do and you tell me if there's any major problems with it that'll stop me from accomplishing it?
08:45.40Elkanoso maybe you can put it into the design but it's size will most likly be shown wrong... and populating it is done via lua

08:46.35KarlKFIwait a sec.. cair's not here...
08:46.42KalerenderI dunno, maybe if I spoke korean to you in a taekwondo class or something heh
08:46.56Kalerenderbrb, getting sick gf bbq sauce
08:47.04s|loupit sounds for me like the ui of tradeskills you have a header and can expand it
08:47.28KarlKFI"I fell asleep on my arm" best song ever
08:47.40KarlKFI-The Aquabats
08:48.07Kalerenderyeah s|loup, thats how I want it to look
08:48.12ElkanoI should spend more tie reading things :/
08:48.20Elkanos/tie/time/
08:48.29s|loupso you should look at the code for the tradeskill ui?
08:48.36KarlKFIafaik no one's bothered to make a gui for makign dropdowns
08:48.48s|loupi think this is found in the AddOns folder
08:49.09KarlKFIi told you!
08:49.29Kalerenderanyway, what I want to have is 3 windows, first on the left is a few drop downs with the dif zones and instances, clicking on one of those gives a list of all quests and set up in chains etc (I'm getting the data using jasters quest history) then clicking on a quest shows some other info to the right of that (similar design to quest window)
08:49.38KarlKFIoops... somehow i set my addon global object to a string..
08:50.00Kalerenderhopefully I'm making it sound more complicated then it is
08:50.02KarlKFIsounds pretty
08:50.19KarlKFIalso sounds like it'd take me a day to code
08:50.28KarlKFIthat's a long time
08:50.53*** join/#wowi-lounge neko (n=neko@193.net73.skekraft.net)
08:51.03KarlKFIdropdowns aren't especially intuitive
08:51.29KarlKFIyou have to get to know them, carress then, and then beat them into submission
08:51.52Kalerenderoh joy.. well I could always start it off all expanded in a scroll box or something heh
08:51.59Elkanowell, if you organize it in a pretty data structure you could code sth generic taking a table of tables of tables of tables of tables of tables ;)
08:52.10KarlKFIscrollboxes are almsot as bad
08:52.54KarlKFIwell if it helps any i wrote a dropdown yesterday...
08:53.18KarlKFIhttp://wow.pastebin.com/697617
08:53.41KarlKFIcourse out of context that'll make very little sense
08:54.17KarlKFIlooks like: http://www.wowwiki.com/images/6/6c/LocaleSelection.jpg
08:55.00KarlKFIalso have to do a: UIDropDownMenu_Initialize(this, Localization.LoadDropDownMenu, "MENU")
08:55.26KarlKFIin the OnLoad of the LanguageDropDown which inherits from UIDropDownMenuTemplate
08:55.43Kalerenderhmm.. drop down wasn't the one I wanted then.. its the one so it'd work like the tradeskills boxes do (at least the tradeskills that sort into groups the stuff you know) or the trainer box with your different skill groups
08:56.04KarlKFIthat's a tree
08:56.15ElkanoKalerender, you want sth like the auction house's filters, don't you?
08:56.21KarlKFIand trees from scratch suck too
08:56.42KarlKFItho Earth has some nice tree templates
08:56.50KarlKFInone nicely documented of course
08:57.25Kalerendernah not the filter, tree is what I'm after
08:57.44Elkanowell, what's needed is a function to populate the lines of a fauxscrollframe with the data obtained from a data structure
08:58.01Kalerenderthing is, I don't want it to filter anything, just that if you click on azeroth it pops opens the zones below it, click on say westfall you see all the westfall quests in the window to the right, click on one and it has the relevant info to the right of that
08:58.07Elkanowell, the filter does work like a tree (armor - lether - head)
08:58.20Kalerenderoh that bit, yeah like that bit :)
08:59.21ElkanoI have recoded the ah filter for ItemDB, but it's not exactly what you need
09:00.13Kalroththottbot has been sold ><
09:00.16Kalerenderanyway, unless someone wants to volunteer to do the dirty work and show me how to input future data, I guess I need to go do more reading heh.. scripting was enver this annoying in zMUD
09:01.30Kalerenderoh btw, don't suppose you guys know if there's a mod or an easy way to change shift-click autoloot to something else like ctrl-click?

09:34.42MiravlixBut for some strange reason, I have trouble with keys not getting out in the right order. like a space getting typed early.
09:35.21MiravlixI've no explanation for why this issue has creept into my typing, since it hasn't always been there.
09:35.51MiravlixAnd even stranger many others seems to have developed the same issue.
09:35.58Kalrothit's because you're getting old

11:21.01grollhms oke
11:21.08grolli use all three :P
11:21.24grollbut i read on catalyst i shouldnt
11:21.49Maldiviausing all of them will give you a performance degrade
11:22.11Maldiviaor well, can
11:22.11grollhehe no :P or well my loading time is way faster than usuall :P
11:22.31Maldiviawell yes, compared to normal
11:22.37ckknight_you shouldn't use all 3
11:22.39MaldiviaI mean, using 3 can be slower than using 1
11:22.47grollbut catalyst does detect the other addons it need to "turn off" so to speak?
11:22.50grollas the other one does
11:23.48Maldiviaall 3 addons tries to "turn off" the slow downs, meaning that logic will be run 3 times, and it can be a fairly intrusive and slow process
11:24.05grollok
11:24.07Maldiviabut still way faster than if it wasn't "turned off"

11:34.01MiravlixNothing wrong with that, except I'm already using Cosmos
11:34.08Industrialand?
11:34.17MiravlixThey duplicate each other in functionality
11:34.22Industrialnot like ace touches cosmos in any way
11:35.03Industrialwell, maybe i can point out some addons that use ace that are a bit more efficient with your system then ones you use now
11:35.27Industrialthe downside of ace being required would decrease :P
11:36.00Industrialack that was a weird sentence :P
11:36.17MiravlixI'm rewriting all the addons I use to my new big-4 caching library addons
11:36.44Industrialbig-4 ?
11:37.03MiravlixSpellbook, CIB, Unitbuff, UnitDebuff
11:37.23MiravlixIt's 4 areas that is used a lot in addons.
11:37.30IndustrialMiravlix: can I help you then? (or even try to)
11:37.40IndustrialI'm at work so im a bit bored
11:38.01StylpeIndustrial, you're just trying to get into his pants ;)
11:38.14IndustrialIm trying to help :P
11:38.51grollIndustrial u could help me though ;P
11:38.56grollbut i bet you dont want to :P
11:39.03Industrialkek
11:39.08Industrialsure :P
11:39.33grollyou could go through my code of my keybindings addon :P it bugs from time to time and kinda dont seem to load :P
11:39.35MiravlixNaah, I've already written SeaSpellbook and is working on SeaCIB, it's better if I write all four so they will be identical in functionality.
11:40.05Industrialno i mean with your list of addons :P

11:43.17Industrialyay
11:43.17Industrial:D
11:44.56MiravlixAnd don't touch the Cosmos addons, I'm a Cosmos Dev, I need to use Cosmos addons so I can maintain them
11:46.56StylpeOoh, can I ask a question about Cosmos?
11:47.19KarlKFIlong as me and mira dont fall asleep in 3 seconds
11:47.26Kirkburn"is it the final frontier?"
11:47.58KarlKFIwell it's more like a spaceship... that takes you there
11:48.28KarlKFIthought about renaming to Enterprise G
11:48.32StylpeAs an avid Ace user and developer, I've become quite the fan of OO development. What's Cosmos's view on OO?
11:49.06KarlKFIour view is that we started it in wow addons, you guys are slow
11:49.13Industrialso how do i know what addons are cosmos addons?
11:50.21Industrialo wait ill download cosmos and diff :P
11:50.24KarlKFISea has used class objects since beta.  We just tend to use them as uninstantiated classes. saves us a headache for the most part
11:50.53StylpeOkay =)
11:51.22Industrialcan i independently use addons from cosmos?
11:51.26KarlKFImost of them
11:51.27Stylpe(I haven't used Cosmos since one month after release, let alone looked at the code)
11:51.29Industrialk
11:51.51MiravlixWe have the big ones with lots of dependencies, like Khaos, PartyQuests
11:51.59Industrialyeq
11:52.02Industrialyea*
11:52.14MiravlixAnd everything uses Khaos to create it's configuration menu
11:52.23MiravlixBut thats mostly optional
11:52.31KarlKFIhowever many of the Cosmos addons are the dependant versions, with standalone versions that are similar except with embedable dependancies where possible.
11:53.00Industrialk
11:53.09KarlKFIthe standalones for the most part are distributed at the whim of the individual authors
11:53.41KarlKFIbut we don't want duplicates of embedded addons in the compilation so we extract them all and put them in the AddOns folder with required deps
11:54.04KarlKFIwhich is usually how the libs started anyway
11:54.12Miravlix70 addons with duplicate embedded Sea, we would use 300-400 MB to load
11:54.19KarlKFIand not all libs are embeddable
11:54.33MiravlixBut after that it drops to 30ish MB
11:54.37MiravlixWould be nuts.
11:54.52KarlKFItho we've been slowly making more of them embeddable as we have time and motivation

11:57.12KarlKFIoh and for those of you that missed out: http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/fileinfo.php?s=&id=4930
11:58.01KarlKFIneed to reformat that tutoral tho.. hard to read
11:58.56KarlKFItho it's more thorough than the rest of my lib docs, heh
11:59.42KarlKFIwhich of course makes it look really complicated to impliment... which it's not
12:01.51KirkburnTime to go back into Uni, back later
12:02.05KarlKFIoh and buy the way, I'm converting all the Cosmos addons as soon as possible. they will soon all be dependant upon that monster you see above.
12:03.51KarlKFI2 reasons: It's really cool, and it allows us to standardize localizations so that they can be automaticly generated using norganna's web based localization tool
12:04.00krka_i don't get... what is this for?
12:04.33krka_why would you want to use french in the english client?
12:04.57KarlKFIperhaps if you were a french-american..
12:05.17KarlKFIbut those 3 languages are just examples.
12:05.20Industrialwhat if im dutch?
12:05.41Industrial(not that i'd ever want any dutch on my pc, bleeegh)
12:05.53KarlKFIas you may have noticed, norganna's addons are localized into more than a dozen loanguages
12:06.12KarlKFIincluding many that doe not have a client
12:06.54KarlKFIthis is a backbone upon which to build such a system
12:07.03IndustrialI'm going to have to bring up my old argument
12:07.23KarlKFI'what if im dutch?' ?
12:07.42IndustrialIts a game with an embedded language. What you are developing seems more like the job of a database and a compiled language
12:08.02IndustrialI think its great to standardise localisations though
12:08.48*** join/#wowi-lounge haste (n=haste@host-81-191-131-80.bluecom.no)
12:09.03KarlKFIwhy not have it in a game?
12:09.17KarlKFII know plenty of people that use chat localizers
12:09.32KarlKFIor did before ooz was dissabled
12:09.34IndustrialI jsut talk in my own language
12:09.58Industrialnot that i do so very often
12:10.52IndustrialWhat I mean is that it's like you are making an operating system that can make you blueberry waffles if you weant to
12:11.04Industrialbecause 'what if he wanted blueberry waffles'
12:11.20Industrialbut its a game
12:11.31Industrialwith the option to make nifty little scripts
12:11.35Industrialto make your life easier
12:12.40Industrialits gnoe a little out of hand
12:12.41Industrial:p
12:13.00KarlKFIwell, put it this way. the addon was fun to make, excessivly robust, allows for not only a standard format and use of free localization by small donators, but also is self motivating because it's nifty
12:13.15StylpeI wish someone in this channel has Elune's Lantern
12:14.18KarlKFIplus, it removes unused localizations if you enable the option (which dissables dynamic switching) and in that form takes not much more memory than the old method
12:14.49Industrialk thats nice
12:14.49Industrial:p
12:16.06KarlKFIso if it motivates change, doesn't cost to much, and allows for harnessing of untapped localizers... where's the harm?
12:16.44KarlKFImore localization = more users
12:17.04Industrialmore users = ?
12:17.06KarlKFIi know specifically koreans and chinese have repeatedly asked for localizations
12:17.12Industrialnot profit, i hope

12:19.16MiravlixWe all need money, but when you have 'enough' and have time to spare...

18:31.39Maldiviaalso reading a bit back... combustion... crits are ony viable in pvp... having a talent that over time ups your crit chance vs 100% for one is worthless

18:34.48KtronThere a 'fake'/'leaked' talent point tree floating around?
18:34.51TemEvery other tree has 48ish
18:34.56Irielmaybe when you want to debuff something, it should pop up a group of buttons and something that indicates the one you must press, and you have to get the right one for the dispell to "hit"

18:55.03Cideah, yeah
18:55.11KirovBut that's not too unexpected
18:55.20KirkburnTem, you must be *really* bored
18:55.22CideI'm running with one minimap, setting alpha on MinimapCluster, but still blacked out
18:55.23TemKirkburn: so that's the net change
18:55.32Tems/that/what/
18:55.39IrielCide: Yours i've run into myself too, but I never tracked it down enough to be able to get a feel for the cause/impact.
18:55.50KirkburnTem, 9 points less
18:55.59Temanyway, it's quite clear to me that frost is missing points
18:56.07CideI'm just trying to semi-hide my minimap, and show it on hover
18:56.17Temthe lowest tree in game at the moment is fire with only 46
18:56.17KirkburnOld Mage 48frost 48fire, 49arc v New mage 42 46 48
18:56.30IrielCide: I tried putting alpha in BigMinimap for a similar reason
18:56.36IrielCide: It worked really well but had some quirks
18:56.36Temoh, nevermind, *I* can't count then
18:56.45Temlowest tree in game were at 48
18:56.58Temso frost loses 6 points?
18:57.01Temdubious
18:57.05IrielCide: My gut is you wont get it fixed for 1.11, but it may be on the list for 1.12 if you can report it, but maybe you'll be lucky and slouken will get bored 8-)
18:57.11Kirkburn9 points, tem
18:57.24Kirkburnoh sorry
18:57.25Kirkburn:P
18:57.27TemI can understand reductions in other places
18:57.31KtronSo, I think Abyssal Leather Pants of Striking are better than Stormshroud Leggings
18:57.59KirkburnSo my message for mages is, don't worry too much!
18:58.22krkafewer points is a good thing though :P
18:58.32Temnot when we lost 4 of our most critical points

21:55.57Iriel(lua client, that is)
21:56.05Irielsince I often test stuff there first

21:56.37Temmac does 0x
21:56.52IrielIt's the underlying printf, I think

22:57.16ckknighthey all
22:57.49TainI think I'm going to make a suggestion that instead of whatever next new game server they're planning for WoW they put that money towards new forum servers.
23:03.37TemTain: I think if you made a suggestion of that nature it would either be assumed a troll post or it would attract so many trolls that it wouldn't be readable
23:03.56Wobin_Tain: New authentication servers
23:04.00Cairennhi ckknight
23:05.00TainAuthentication servers too, yeah.  But even just the forums themselves get so unresponsive sometimes.
23:05.03IrielThey've already committed to both of those in battleplan 3 haven't they?
23:05.29TainUnless it was posted in the UI & Macros forum, I didn't see it.
23:10.41IrielTain: It's in general, you should read it tho

23:19.56BWho gives a shit about forums
23:20.16IrielI care about ONE of them
23:20.23Stylpe_2Hey, is it true that item IDs are the same on every server?
23:20.24Temsame
23:20.27BAt least authentication server redundancy would make a beneficial difference to everyone
23:20.41IrielStylpe_2 : The main item, yes
23:20.44TemStylpe_2: yes, unless you are talking about the uniqueid part
23:21.50Stylpe_2goodie =), so I might be able to detect cooldown based on loot messages, matching the item id there, and thus won't have to localise item names?
23:22.35Wobin_X creates Mooncloth?
23:22.41Stylpe_2I can find the item ids at Thott or Alla, right?
23:22.46Wobin_or you recieve Mooncloth
23:22.50Wobin_Alla
23:22.56Wobin_Thott doesn't give the ids
23:23.09Wobin_Mendy also drops the item id into the tooltip too
23:23.14Stylpe_2You create: [Mooncloth].
23:23.26Stylpe_2clickable link
23:23.45Stylpe_2And chat events happen even if the message isn't enabled in any chat windows, right?
23:23.49TemStylpe_2: yes, you can totally do it that way
23:23.54Stylpe_2Awesome!
23:23.56TemI'm surprized you didn't do it that way before
23:24.24Stylpe_2Well, I haven't fidgeted enough with item links until now
23:24.44Stylpe_2I was using ummm, CHAT_MSG_TRADESKILL_SOMETHING
23:25.10Stylpe_2turns out there's a CHAT_MSG_LOOT fired too
23:25.19Stylpe_2and for Elune Stones, that's the only message
23:25.30Kirovhmm... new forums next month
23:25.40KirovMaybe they'll fix the search?
23:25.41Stylpe_2I'm a little worried about registering that event though, it gets fired a lot

23:28.32Kirovwhat is this?
23:28.57Stylpe_2what?
23:29.07Kirovthis mod
23:29.13Stylpe_2~kic
23:29.14purlit has been said that kic is KeepItCool, an addon by Stylpe that reminds you when your tradeskill cooldowns are up, with FuBar support. http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/fileinfo.php?id=4248
23:29.28Stylpe_2Spread the word =P
23:29.37KirkburnAh yeah, that :)
23:29.48Kirovah
23:29.59KirkburnTis cool
23:30.29Stylpe_2I found out yesterday that Elune's Lantern wasn't being detected, and I've ended up rewriting it to use item ids now =P
23:30.42Stylpe_2So now it'll work regardless of loacle :D
23:30.46Stylpe_2*locale
23:30.48TainWhat's KIC?
23:31.27Tain:)
23:31.58TainOne of my characters is a 300 Alchemist and I'd use KIC if I played him still. And remembered which character that was.
23:32.33Stylpe_2lol
23:32.52Stylpe_2Well, KIC'd tell you which realm and char it's ready for
23:33.33TainGood stuff!
23:35.11IrielIf you're worried about an event that's fired alot you can use OnUpdate to make it less annoying (depends what "fires alot" means)
23:35.21KirovIs it better to do object:Hide() on update or if object:IsVisible() then object:Hide() end if I'm trying to hide something for which the client hides / unhides outside of lua
23:35.33IrielYou can start an OnUpdate timer when you see the event and schedule a test for say, 1 second in the future
23:35.43IrielKirov: Just hide it
23:35.59IrielKirov : It's DEFINITELY better than testing first
23:36.14IrielKirov: Internally it tests if it's shown before doing anything
23:36.15Kirovthought so
23:36.25IrielKirov : Though it woul dbe IsShown() not IsVisible() if you wanted to test yourself
23:36.38KirovI can hide all the minimap arrows on the fly
23:36.52Stylpe_2Iriel, I'm talking about CHAT_MSG_LOOT. That gets fired whenever the player loots an item (often, not what I'm interested in), or makes an item (seldom, but what I want).
23:37.47KirovOne of the things about the method I found for determining the player's rotation I can also find the direction to any party member or town on the minimap.
23:37.52IrielHm probably not enough to really worry about, and can't you look at the message to work out which one it is?
23:37.55Kirovthough I can't see which town it is.
23:38.09Kirovor if it's a corpse, etc.
23:38.21IrielKirov: Really? How do you get access to that model?
23:38.46Stylpe_2Iriel, sure I can, I'm just worried about running a string.find that often. Am I being too mindful? =P
23:39.07Stylpe_2Looting an item is slow enough as it is already
23:39.12IrielStylpe_2 : I think you're being too worried yes, string.find is pretty damn fast unless your RE is horrific
23:39.20Stylpe_2How fast is a string.find anyway?
23:39.23Irielvery
23:39.24Stylpe_2oh ok
23:39.45IrielAgain, a bad regexp will slow it down, but yours is likely simple
23:39.49Stylpe_2well, I've been known to make some badass patterns =P

23:41.00Stylpe_2eh, I don't want to brag too much =P
23:41.43IrielMy point is that the thing you're looking for likely doesn't NEED a complex regexp 8-)
23:42.35IrielKirov : Oooh, the game exposes them.. that could be a real problem.. Does that mean you can detect when a node shows up? Or does this only work for player blips?
23:42.37KirkburnLol!

23:42.55Kiroviriel - http://wow.pastebin.com/699138
23:43.02KirovThe blips are a function of the render to texture
23:43.09KirovOnly the directional arrows are done in the UI
23:43.11Stylpe_2"You create: .-%[(.*)%].-%."
23:43.18IrielOh good.
23:43.25KirovSo, it's still safe
23:43.30IrielStylpe_2 : You can make that middle part .- can't you?
23:43.57Stylpe_2Sure
23:44.52Stylpe_2And the cool part is the string is created dynamically at startup from the global strings, so there's no need to localise ^_^
23:47.07Stylpe_2Oh, but wait, I was gonna change it to use item ids...
23:51.06Stylpe_2Anyone here use a german or french client?
