01:30.36 | Hexarobi | i know people have downloaded my addon but for the life of me i cant find any of em to play against ;) |
01:30.40 | AnduinLothar | so iriel. we worked on a split fuction for Sea a while back. I realized out a few days ago that it doesn't allow for empty strings between sepperators |
01:31.20 | Iriel | AnduinLothar : Are you sure that wasn't deliberate? There are two flavors of split operator in the wild and some do and some dont? |
01:31.47 | AnduinLothar | i can't think of any reason why it shouldn't |
01:31.51 | AnduinLothar | http://pastebin.ca/110955 |
01:32.12 | Iriel | If you're using it to parse slash commands, empty strings are probably not what you want |
01:32.41 | Iriel | All you need to do is remove the + from the regexKey, I think |
01:33.04 | Iriel | Hm, skip that 8-) |
01:33.19 | Iriel | Replace the + with a * |
01:33.49 | AnduinLothar | hmmm, well the immediate use is parsing table indexes which should never have .. in them |
01:34.28 | AnduinLothar | lemme see if Satellite uses it for parsing /com |
01:35.15 | AnduinLothar | doesn't look like it |
01:35.50 | zespri_work | >>best-effort userspace profilers |
01:35.53 | zespri_work | Which are? |
01:36.17 | Iriel | I dont rememeber their names, but there are some things out there that attempt to do memory profiling by hooking lots of normal entrypoints |
01:36.29 | Iriel | They could be adapted to do time profiling too |
01:36.51 | zespri_work | Iriel, 1) do they work with WoW, 2) do they profile speed? |
01:37.09 | zespri_work | you just answered number 2 |
01:37.20 | Iriel | It's wow ones I'm thinking of |
01:37.36 | Iriel | Depending on what you're trying to do their usefulness will vary between 'lots' and 'none whatsoever' |
01:38.21 | Iriel | But that's sort of where the 'first addon hit' attribution would end up as well |
01:38.30 | zespri_work | so any google keywords you can tip me on? What I'd like to get is some gauge in respect which addons consume more resources and which less |

01:51.49 | Kirkburn | So does this mean they're working on War4? Or StarCraft 2? |
01:52.19 | Kirkburn | Or what? My poor expectation-addled brain :( |
01:53.03 | Kirkburn | Oh, and another new job opp ... note the last word ... "The Cinematic Animator will be skilled at realistically animating the movements of humanoids, beasts and machines" |
01:54.46 | Iriel | Diablo 3, the RTS? |
01:54.48 | MentalPower | that can apply to SC, WC and Diablo universes |

01:55.20 | Hexarobi | werd |
01:56.27 | Kirkburn | They play with us so much |
02:06.14 | zespri_work | can someone explain me (I know there is an explanation, I just happen not to know it) Why balancing shaman vs paladin is something special that needs to be done? |
02:06.38 | zespri_work | what kind of balance were they trying to maintain? |
02:06.41 | Cide | it wasn't necessarily done to balance them |
02:07.16 | Cide | but to allow the designers to differentiate more between the two, without messing up raid balance and the like |
02:07.23 | Hexarobi | the people that balance classes didnt wanna have to deal with balancing a totally new class |
02:07.32 | Cide | that's not the reason Hexarobi, no |
02:08.19 | zespri_work | It doens't make much sense for me. Can you give an example of a change that would be ok, but is not because of the shaman and paladin |
02:08.21 | Cide | they got locked into having the two classes have pretty much equal abilities |
02:08.38 | zespri_work | they are not equial at all |
02:08.45 | Cide | they had to make them more equal |
02:08.49 | Cide | look at the implementation of tranquil air totem |
02:09.03 | zespri_work | shaman and paladin are very different: plate and mail, pally shields, shammys versatility |
02:09.13 | zespri_work | I can't see how they are sooo similar |
02:09.21 | Cide | question: do you raid? |
02:09.31 | zespri_work | no |
02:09.59 | Cide | they aren't similar enough |
02:10.02 | zespri_work | I've been in MC 3 times, but didn't enjoy it |
02:10.04 | Cide | which creates an imbalance |
02:10.29 | Cide | and in order to balance that, every ability paladins have needs to have a counterpart for shaman (and vice versa) |
02:10.35 | Tain | Salvation alone makes it an imbalance. |
02:10.38 | zespri_work | imbalance like what? I'm genuinely trying to understand. |
02:10.45 | Cide | salvation. |
02:10.48 | Cide | totems versus blessings |
02:11.04 | Tain | If totems affected raid-wide it would be different. |
02:11.04 | Cide | a shaman can buff one group with 4 buffs at most, and one class will only benefit to one, two at most |
02:11.21 | Cide | paladins, however, can buff the whole raid for 15 minutes, and give every single player a buff that is useful to them |
02:11.24 | zespri_work | but isn't it the same with all classes more or less. wearing mail and plate on my opinioin quite a big difference |
02:11.27 | Kirkburn | It's amazing how easily simple shapes become a real object in our minds ... a circle and a short line becomes a magnifying glass, for example |
02:11.44 | Cide | zespri: difference between mail and plate doesn't do *anything* in raids |
02:11.52 | Tain | Yeah it really doesn't zespri |
02:12.00 | Cide | with 4 paladins, you have everyone in the raid with 3-4 useful buffs |
02:12.16 | Kirkburn | I can't decide whether to go to bed 2nite |
02:12.17 | Kirkburn | hrm |
02:12.25 | Cide | without costing mana from buffs dropping when they time out (15 minutes), and when you move (mobile buffs versus static totems) |
02:12.26 | Tain | In raids neither Shamans nore Paladins are taking melee damage (much) |
02:12.30 | Kirkburn | Poll: should I go to bed tonight? |
02:12.32 | Cairenn | Kirkburn: yes |
02:12.43 | Kirkburn | But I'm not tired :( |
02:13.02 | Cide | almost any damage non-tanks take in raids are magic, from various aoes |
02:13.13 | Kirkburn | (I'm a difficult child =) |
02:13.39 | Cairenn | well, much as you may enjoy it, I'm not going to take you over my knee and spank you :p |
02:13.42 | Tain | zespri there really is just entirely different metagames in the game. 5 man (or less) pve, pvp and 40 man raids. They are completely different. |
02:13.59 | Cide | and paladins completely dominate shaman in two of the three |
02:14.01 | Kirkburn | awww :( |
02:14.07 | AnduinLothar | cair, you killed his fanisty |
02:14.08 | Cide | yes, regardless of frost shock |
02:14.15 | Kirkburn | cair, you killed his spell checker |
02:14.35 | AnduinLothar | mmm, spell checker for xchat? where |
02:14.45 | Kirkburn | There, there, there on the stair. Right there. |
02:14.47 | Tain | I don't know about dominate, but at least have the edge. Dominate in raids yeah. But I at least still like Shamans a lot in 5 man groups and pvp |
02:15.08 | Tain | Whereas in a 5 man group I could take or leave a Paladin. |
02:15.26 | AnduinLothar | unless you're doing a dead zone |
02:15.35 | zespri_work | ok so the deal is that the balance issue is that the same encounter may be easier for one faction then for the other if the classes are not balanced right? |
02:16.06 | Tain | That is the case today, definitely. |
02:16.27 | Tain | I always snickered a little at it. But I've now done MC as both Horde and Alliance and there's no comparison in my mind. |
02:17.16 | Tain | I never did BWL as Horde, but I think it's similar since I can't see anywhere Shamans would be better to have. |
02:17.34 | AnduinLothar | ballence = they have to be equally whined at for neglecting or over doing one or more semi-needed things |
02:18.42 | Tain | On the other hand Horde is hugely stronger PVP side (in my opinion) even if for no other reason than it's much easier to gain pvp ranks as Horde due to almost universally shorter bg queues. |
02:18.52 | AnduinLothar | pallies get healers bitching at them for topping off and everyone else whining to keep the damn buffs up constantly |
02:19.27 | AnduinLothar | shamam at least don't have to listen to whining from anyone but their grp |
02:22.21 | Tain | Of course I played a Shaman in EQ for years, the single most buffing everyone under the sun class ever to live in a game.. |
02:22.39 | AnduinLothar | if a dpser gets a shaman in their party it's "yay windfury". if they get a pally it's "yay aura". but everyone in the raid expects pally buffs no matter how many there are |
02:22.49 | Cide | and actually |
02:23.12 | Cide | paladin are much more useful compare to shaman in BWL than in MC |
02:23.51 | Cide | due to aggro-sensitive fights, where salvation is extremely useful (vael, broodlord, 3 drakes to some extent) |
02:23.58 | Cide | they have cleanse for chrom |
02:24.00 | Tain | Well yeah I couldn't think of any situations I've been in BWL (still new at BWL though) that a Shaman adds a lot. |
02:24.21 | Tain | But Salvation is just stupidly stronger to a raid than anything a Shaman can do. |
02:24.44 | Cide | in AQ, there's a lot of moving around (sartura, twin emps, c'thun, not sure about ouro, but very spread out on that fight) |
02:25.42 | Cide | in naxx, a lot of the fights you're spread out or moving (heigan, noth, faerlina, um...) |
02:25.45 | zespri_work | ok thank you guys for explaining that to me |
02:26.18 | zespri_work | but here is the question |
02:26.51 | zespri_work | some classess will always be less useful the other in raids. why being faction only class make them care? |
02:27.00 | Cide | exactly |
02:27.23 | Cide | because if warlocks are useless in one fight, so what? still the same for horde and alliance |
02:27.38 | Cide | if shaman are useless but paladins not, alliance will have a much easier time killing, and thus progressing, than horde |
02:28.20 | Cide | and vice versa naturally, but that doesn't happen as often (only fight that comes to mind is viscidus, which is even optional) |
02:28.47 | zespri_work | so it's okey that warlocks progress more slowly but not okey to faction to progress more slowly? or there is no such think as personal progerssion? |
02:29.04 | Cide | um, I don't understand that argument at all |
02:29.11 | Cide | warlocks progress as fast as others in general |
02:29.22 | zespri_work | ok. |
02:29.35 | zespri_work | they just less wanted |
02:29.37 | Tain | There really isnt' personal progression. You only progress as much as your guild progresses. |
02:30.03 | AnduinLothar | unless you change guilds often |
02:30.17 | Cide | and even then, your usefulness on a specific fight is irrelevant |
02:30.31 | Tain | Yeah you're just a cog. |
02:30.43 | Cide | unless it imbalances the factions on that fight... |
02:31.33 | zespri_work | ok, makes sense |
02:31.55 | Cide | and even then, it's not really a big deal usually |
02:32.10 | zespri_work | the cog part is why I don't like raiding |
02:32.37 | Cide | it's just that blizzard has continuously (doubt it's intentional) given alliance an easier time, and over the period of 3 raiding zones, it has added up |

04:30.28 | zespri_work | hi Esamynn |
04:30.42 | zespri_work | i scared him off |
04:31.20 | DoomGaze3 | ur pretty scary |
04:31.55 | DoomGaze3 | does lua have throw .. catch functionality? |
04:32.35 | zespri_work | no explicitly. you can use pcall to catch |
04:33.05 | *** join/#wowi-lounge Esamynn (n=jbcc@d207-216-176-153.bchsia.telus.net) |
04:33.25 | DoomGaze3 | what is this pcall? |
04:33.32 | DoomGaze3 | I'm seeing it all over wow bench? |
04:33.59 | Shadowed | wheee |
04:34.07 | zespri_work | pcall allows you to call a function and make sure that the call won't throw |
04:34.14 | Esamynn | pcall allows you to catch any errors that a function call throws |
04:34.27 | zespri_work | yeah =) |
04:34.47 | DoomGaze3 | dofile threw an exception on my xml and the msg it threw is nil |
04:34.48 | DoomGaze3 | yay |
04:34.51 | DoomGaze3 | now what do I do? |
04:36.10 | DoomGaze3 | Shadowed: Where what? |
04:47.06 | Shadowed | Nothing |
04:53.53 | DoomGaze3 | attempt to call global 'CreateFrame' (a nil value) <---- whaaaa? |
04:54.26 | Esamynn | did you check your spelling and capitalisation? |
04:55.03 | DoomGaze3 | http://pastey.net/90 |
04:55.03 | Shadowed | If he copied the error as is then CreateFrame should work |
04:55.52 | Esamynn | looks like an AddOn is mis-behaving itself |
04:56.01 | DoomGaze3 | mine? |
04:56.15 | DoomGaze3 | The ide is giving me this |
04:56.19 | Shadowed | think (s)he means that an addon has a function called CreateFrame |
04:56.25 | Iriel | I wonder if WoWBench doesn't define CreateFrame until later |
04:56.37 | Shadowed | mikkkkkkk |
04:56.46 | DoomGaze3 | I'm not using wow bench. too buggy |
04:56.53 | DoomGaze3 | the IDE is giving me this |
04:57.02 | zespri_work | exclamation and question mark over npc heads, is there any way access them from an addon? Like hide and show? I'm almost 100% that it's impossible, if anyone have a contradictiong opinion please share |
04:57.14 | Shadowed | nope |
04:57.15 | Esamynn | zespri_work: no |
04:57.16 | Shadowed | impossible |
04:57.31 | Shadowed | If something besides WoW itself is giving you the error, then it's an issue with that program, not much you can really do about it |
04:57.43 | DoomGaze3 | kk |
04:59.06 | Iriel | DoomGaze3 : What is "the IDE" ? |
04:59.16 | DoomGaze3 | wow ui designer |
04:59.32 | Iriel | I dont believe that's been well maintained with respect to the newer API calls |
04:59.36 | Esamynn | ahh |
04:59.38 | DoomGaze3 | a tad buggy, but it works great 99 percent of the time |
05:00.22 | Esamynn | i'm a fan of just working within the game itself, only rarely do I end up with an infiniate loop ;) |
05:00.50 | DoomGaze3 | string.sub(link, string.find(link, 'item:%d+:%d+:%d+:%d+')) <--- on a hyperlink gives me "item:1234:0:0:432163 |
05:00.54 | DoomGaze3 | right? |
05:01.07 | DoomGaze3 | or is my pattern defunct? |
05:01.08 | Iriel | No |
05:01.11 | Iriel | You need ()'s |
05:01.30 | Iriel | Oh, sorry, ignore me there |
05:01.31 | Esamynn | no, no, he's right |
05:01.34 | Iriel | I didn't notice the string.sub |
05:01.38 | Esamynn | hehe |
05:01.43 | Kirkburn | This is sad: http://www.ie7.com/ |
05:01.45 | Iriel | that should work just fine |
05:01.54 | Esamynn | DoomGaze3: I perfer the gsub method myself |
05:01.58 | Iriel | though does it break if you have no item ID in the link? |
05:02.26 | DoomGaze3 | do you think I should find: :item first? |
05:03.07 | Iriel | Probably |
05:03.21 | Iriel | or just do |
05:03.31 | Esamynn | do string.find(link, '(item:%d+:%d+:%d+:%d+)') instead, that will return the item link as the third return value |
05:03.41 | Iriel | local _,_,item = string.find(link, '(item:%d+:%d+:%d+:%d+)') |
05:03.47 | Iriel | bah Esamynn beat me |
05:03.53 | Esamynn | 8) |
05:04.16 | chuckg | Guess who's taking your MVP spot now? |
05:04.38 | DoomGaze3 | what do the parentheses in the pattern do? |
05:04.46 | Iriel | Hey, nobody's taking my spot, though if it came to a vote for another one i'd say yes for Esamynn 8-) |
05:04.57 | Iriel | DoomGaze3 : They identify that part as a 'capture' |
05:05.16 | Iriel | The matching string to the pattern in parentheses is returned from the find |
05:05.18 | Iriel | so for example |
05:05.27 | Esamynn | Iriel: i'm flattered!, really I'm blushing :) |
05:05.38 | Iriel | string.find(link,'item:(%d+):(%d+):(%d+):(%d+)') |
05:06.01 | Iriel | would return the start and end locations of the whole pattern, then the four numeric pieces (as strings) separately |
05:06.21 | Iriel | so in your example above it would return something like 10, 30, "1234", "0", "0", "432163" |
05:08.13 | DoomGaze3 | okay, so then I'd want it something like: _, _, id1, id2, id3, id4 = string.find(link,'item:(%d+):(%d+):(%d+):(%d+)') |
05:09.09 | DoomGaze3 | then return "item:"..id1..":"..id2..":"..id3..":"..id4 |
05:09.10 | Esamynn | DoomGaze3: yes, exactly |
05:09.30 | Iriel | But only do the pieces separately if you need to process them that way |
05:09.32 | Esamynn | well, depends on if you need the individual numbers or not |
05:09.47 | Iriel | If you just need the link string, do it as one capture so lua doesn't have to mess around with more strings than it needs to |
05:10.19 | DoomGaze3 | ok, ok, lemmie look at pattern tutorial again... |
05:12.45 | DoomGaze3 | so you're saying string.find(link,'item:(%d+):(%d+):(%d+):(%d+)') would return first number for first id1 and last number for id4 |
05:13.34 | DoomGaze3 | and if I want the whole thing, string.find(link,'(item:%d+:%d+:%d+:%d+)') |
05:13.40 | Esamynn | string.find returns the beginning of the matched string, then the end as position itegers, then it returns any captures defined in your pattern as aditional return values |
05:14.03 | Esamynn | s/itegers/integers/ |
05:15.06 | DoomGaze3 | so I don't even need string.sub, just _, _, strippedLink = string.find(link,'(item:%d+:%d+:%d+:%d+)') |
05:15.32 | Iriel | and strippedLink will be nil if there's no match |
05:15.46 | Iriel | (whereas you get an error if you do the string.sub approach without checking for the link first) |
05:15.54 | DoomGaze3 | gotcha |
05:16.45 | Iriel | You can do crazy things like this too, if you ever get bored: |
05:17.00 | Iriel | string.find(link,'(item:((%d+):(%d+)):(%d+):(%d+))') |
05:17.23 | DoomGaze3 | First ( = first return, etc? |
05:17.30 | Iriel | Yes, very good 8-) |
05:17.59 | DoomGaze3 | okay, I think I finally got the hang of this patterns thing |
05:18.00 | Esamynn | you have an extra ) in there |
05:18.08 | Iriel | I dont think so |
05:18.22 | DoomGaze3 | second %d |

05:19.59 | Iriel | I think it's because anyone with the patience to remain here more than an hour or so passes a certain appropriate strangeness threshold |
05:20.18 | Esamynn | Iriel: well said! 8) |
05:22.17 | Cairenn | ya never know |
05:23.06 | Esamynn | damnit, apache, just do what I want! |
05:23.27 | DoomGaze3 | Tell me if you guys would use this: MasterLooter is a mod that allows pickup raids to quickly and easily distribute loot using a fixed point bidding system. |
05:24.01 | DoomGaze3 | Not only does it conduct the auction, but it also distributes loot for you and tracks points and greeds |
05:24.23 | DoomGaze3 | GetDKP is planned for 2.0 :D |
05:25.26 | DoomGaze3 | Best of all, it works out of the box. Just click an item and then click Auction with MasterLooter instead of clicking a name |
05:25.48 | Cairenn | night Iriel, sweet dreams |
05:25.51 | Esamynn | goodnight |
05:25.57 | Iriel | Thanks, likewise. |
05:26.06 | DoomGaze3 | night, thx for all ur help :) |
05:29.38 | DoomGaze3 | another test, just to make damn sure I got it |
05:29.45 | DoomGaze3 | local _, _, itemID = string.find(link, 'item:(%d+):%d+:%d+:%d+'); |
05:29.56 | Esamynn | DoomGaze3: yes |
05:30.01 | DoomGaze3 | awesomeness |
05:32.22 | DoomGaze3 | the single quotes denote a pattern, correct? |
05:35.29 | Esamynn | no, they denote a string |

06:10.24 | norganna | DoomGaze3: i can't understand why they cancel some of the stuff they do |
06:10.58 | norganna | i think a lot of people would watch more tv if they advertised what they were showing on tv a bit more, and cut back on the real commercials |
06:11.17 | Flyoc | no. |
06:11.22 | Flyoc | people can just read that stuff |
06:11.58 | norganna | they seem to like to squeeze out show advertising in exchange for paid advertising, then wonder why things aren't popular right now, only to find out these things reach cult status 12 months after they are cancelled |
06:12.23 | norganna | gee, maybe if you had told people it was on.... |
06:20.27 | Cairenn|sleep | kinda like Firefly |
06:20.34 | norganna | kinda |
06:21.05 | norganna | firefly was almost cancelled before it aired but |
06:21.53 | norganna | i think with firefly there was a difference in expectation... i think the producers were expecting space vampires or something |
06:22.16 | norganna | "Joss Whedon... doesn't he do vampires?" |
06:22.28 | DoomGaze3 | Joss? Naaaaaahhhh |

06:23.59 | DoomGaze3 | Fox is too mainstream for that stuff now |
06:24.06 | norganna | i think they were expecting Buffy the Space Explorer.... |
06:24.34 | DoomGaze3 | I think if they wouldn't have fucked with the show in the first place, it might still be on |
06:24.45 | DoomGaze3 | Fox execs love to be creative tho |

08:29.06 | Shadowed | would have been faster to farm money for a quel during the DM exploit then it wuold be going to exalted |
08:29.18 | zenzelezz | I already have my QS |
08:29.31 | zenzelezz | got it for 900 after the prices went back up |
08:29.58 | Shadowed | why go for Unyielding then? |
08:30.39 | zenzelezz | I've been asking myself that too... wasn't paying full attention and heard them say "warriors, paladins, hunters" (or whichever classes the item is for) "roll now" |
08:30.47 | zenzelezz | thankfully we've had many of the same item drop |
08:30.48 | Shadowed | hehe |
08:31.19 | zenzelezz | yesterday both Moam and Buru dropped it =) |
08:31.22 | Shadowed | cloak/ring are nice, the weapon isn't though |
08:31.36 | zenzelezz | are you mad? o_O The weapon is sweet |
08:31.43 | Shadowed | compared to a QS? |
08:32.08 | zenzelezz | they're not all that comparable in my opinion, the Sickle is more for DPS |
08:32.18 | zenzelezz | sure, there's better DPS weapons, but not necessarily easier to get |
08:32.42 | Shadowed | depends what you're doing, AQ20/ZG I don't think theres better |
08:32.47 | Shadowed | for main hand that is |
08:33.11 | zenzelezz | well, the Sickle is One-Hand IIRC |
08:33.33 | Shadowed | if you we're going to use a QS as main hand i'd slap you :p |
08:34.08 | zenzelezz | of course I wouldn't :-p |
08:34.43 | zenzelezz | I may not be very good with DPS setups, but I'm not *that* bad :) |

08:54.24 | Industrial | hm cool ingame chess |
08:54.39 | Industrial | Does a game get saved when you log out or the other person logs out? |
08:55.49 | AnduinLothar | funny, you're not the first person to ask that |
08:56.35 | AnduinLothar | I also find it funny that so many people think it's novel... Perhaps my methods aof advertizement need improvement |
08:56.36 | Kirkburn | The answer was no then too |
08:56.36 | Industrial | Well I'd imagine Ill play this when in BG queues and want it to last across sessions |
08:56.51 | AnduinLothar | cept there's no AI |
08:57.07 | Kirkburn | But he will be adding saving - they way he's done it, it's reasoably easy to add |
08:57.18 | AnduinLothar | but you're right, it'd be nifty if there was a way to save games |
08:57.30 | krka | just save the move history |
08:57.42 | AnduinLothar | or the current configuration |

09:52.02 | AnduinLothar | oh for the week, you mean? |
09:52.43 | AnduinLothar | well i moved like a 70 yr old for a few days after oblitterating my body water-skiing |
09:53.35 | AnduinLothar | skipping accross the water on your shoulder/neck 2 or 3 times at 40 mph kinda has that effect |
09:53.52 | Shadowed | ouch |
09:53.59 | AnduinLothar | kinda feels liek a sledgehammer smashing ever muscle in your body |
09:54.30 | AnduinLothar | and that's why after that bail i got up and skiied some more |
09:55.20 | AnduinLothar | for another 10 min anyway, till i was so completely wasted i had to pry my hands away from the bar to avoid killing myself |
09:56.08 | AnduinLothar | spose that's what happens when you rent a boat with cousins and spend 10am-6pm on the water |
09:57.15 | AnduinLothar | yeah.... 6 ibprophen did nothing... shoulda gotten some asprin or stolen some morphine or somehting |
09:58.13 | AnduinLothar | "releaves minor aches and pains" jsut doesn't cut it, no matter the dosage |
09:59.31 | paranoid_ | you'll notice that as the dosage increases the effect changes from "releaves minor aches and pains" to "removes life force" |

10:31.15 | DoomGaze3 | hey mikk, opinion question: What would be the best way to track players on a greed list? |
10:31.22 | lhunath | don't recon it would suffice to /reload to get those changes applied, would you .. |
10:31.56 | Mikk | DoomGaze3: explain |
10:32.16 | Mikk | Ihunath: No, use SetCVar to set them |
10:32.29 | Mikk | Then it's instant |
10:33.04 | DoomGaze3 | there are many changing things always happening in a party. If an auction isn't won, it distributes loot to the next person in a circular queue in a-z order |
10:33.13 | lhunath | (L, not I =) I know my name sounds weird ;x) |
10:33.34 | DoomGaze3 | problem is, what if someone goes offline and then comes back |
10:36.15 | DoomGaze3 | I'm mulling over a bunch of solutions right now and none of them seem to be useful |
10:36.34 | Mikk | DoomGaze3: There's a couple of solutions |
10:36.55 | Mikk | 1. Keep a count of how many items each member has gotten. Select the ones with the fewest wins. Sort alpha and hand out to #1 |
10:37.08 | Mikk | Problem: If someone joins mid instance, they get lots of loot |
10:37.19 | Mikk | 2. Keep a count of how many items someone has MISSED due to being offline |
10:37.40 | Mikk | Probably the better choice. You can cap it at e.g. #1 item for someone that's offline a long time. |
10:37.47 | Mikk | s/#1/1/ |
10:37.49 | DoomGaze3 | Right now I'm pulling out first using table.remove and table.insert ing em back on |
10:38.18 | Mikk | That works. Just keep a second table with people that should have gotten loot but couldn't due to being offline. |
10:38.36 | Mikk | If there's anyone in there, just give them the next things that drop. |

10:40.02 | DoomGaze3 | right now, I'm cross checking master loot candidates |
10:42.20 | DoomGaze3 | I've got 3 tables: one that serves as a master list of players, one that tracks Master Loot candidates, and another that tracks greeds and also provides a reference to the player's master list entry |

10:44.46 | DoomGaze3 | Did you get that email? |
10:54.31 | Mikk | yea |
10:55.11 | Mikk | I just solved it by retreiving the master loot candidate list and doing a /random roll internally in the addon :-P |

11:17.10 | Mikk | DoomGaze3: Well. I've fixed the debugger bugging. It was my UTF-8 changes that caused that problem. |
11:17.17 | Mikk | Now to find what's actually erroring in your addon. |
11:17.30 | Mikk | It's something inside a CreateFrame() that going haywire. |
11:18.49 | DoomGaze3 | no noes! |
11:18.56 | DoomGaze3 | Mental gave me that function |
11:19.17 | MentalPower | what function? |
11:19.28 | DoomGaze3 | IsItemSetItem |
11:19.42 | MentalPower | it should still be in pastey.net |
11:20.14 | DoomGaze3 | he's looking at it now, he has my code |
11:20.17 | MentalPower | http://pastey.net/60 |
11:21.19 | Mikk | Well.. "ML_FakeTooltip" doesn't exist at the point where you're trying to use it as a parent... |
11:21.40 | Mikk | At least there's no such object in the global namespace |
11:21.52 | DoomGaze3 | would TestTooltip work? |
11:22.02 | Mikk | er wait |

11:31.08 | Mikk | That's fun |
11:31.19 | Mikk | It MAY be the the warning spewage is wrong though |
11:31.46 | Mikk | There's some cases where you can't override stuff, and there's some cases where you can. |

12:02.22 | DoomGaze3 | checking... |
12:02.35 | MentalPower | you can change the name back to ML_TestTooltip if you want |
12:02.47 | MentalPower | the function had two typos and an oopsie |
12:02.50 | MentalPower | sorry about that |
12:03.03 | MentalPower | coding from memory is not always perfect |
12:03.16 | *** join/#wowi-lounge Andalia (n=xx@p54AD8A7C.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) |
12:04.40 | DoomGaze3 | I shouldn't expect you to write my code for me anyways, however there isn't a whole lot of documentation out there on how to do this either :? |
12:06.00 | MentalPower | I don't mind writing snippets of code, especially when I'm working on a similar project (like now) |
12:06.13 | DoomGaze3 | That's why I asked you. :D |
12:06.28 | MentalPower | not a problem really |
12:07.00 | DoomGaze3 | still spewing forth all kinds of errors |
12:07.08 | DoomGaze3 | but hopefully it'll work in game |
12:07.58 | MentalPower | oh? |
12:08.28 | MentalPower | wait a sec, you're testing out of game with wowbench? |
12:08.38 | DoomGaze3 | ya |
12:09.00 | Mikk | it's spewing warnings because you're creating all the things that already exist in the object you're inheriting from |
12:09.58 | MentalPower | erm... no |
12:10.05 | Mikk | same names and all |
12:10.31 | Mikk | o? |
12:10.35 | Mikk | that's what it looked like to me |
12:10.43 | Mikk | i didn't actually read code though. i just read warnings :-) |
12:10.56 | MentalPower | GameTooltip (the frame type) does not have $parentTextLeft1 |
12:11.05 | MentalPower | but GameTooltipTemplate defines them |
12:11.42 | Mikk | aye |
12:11.53 | Mikk | and the CreateFrame was saying to inherit GameTooltipTemplate |
12:12.02 | MentalPower | yes |
12:12.56 | Mikk | erhmwaitasec |
12:13.05 | Mikk | it's not creating anything else |
12:13.09 | Mikk | so why's it complaining.... |
12:13.26 | MentalPower | my point exactly |
12:14.59 | Mikk | oddly enough, I just tested doing the same thing in a single file |
12:15.00 | Mikk | no warnings |
12:15.35 | Mikk | local x = CreateFrame("GameTooltip", "MyGT", nil, "GameTooltipTemplate"); |
12:15.37 | Mikk | error free |
12:15.55 | DoomGaze3 | lemmie clean |
12:15.58 | Mikk | is the same lua file being pulled in several times? |
12:16.08 | Mikk | like.. once from toc and once from <Script file> in xml? |
12:17.15 | Mikk | yep it is |
12:17.22 | Mikk | once from the xml file, once from the toc |
12:17.40 | DoomGaze3 | so all I need is the xml? |
12:17.43 | DoomGaze3 | or the toc? |
12:17.44 | Mikk | either one |
12:17.46 | Mikk | both will work |
12:17.46 | MentalPower | or the toc |
12:17.48 | Mikk | just not at the same time =) |
12:17.53 | DoomGaze3 | rgr |
12:18.27 | Mikk | yep, runs warning free when that one's gone |
12:18.38 | MentalPower | lol |
12:19.13 | Mikk | DoomGaze3: Try lua wowbench.lua -q MasterLooter |
12:19.21 | Mikk | Uses "FrameXML-lite.toc" and loads ~3 times faster |
12:19.28 | DoomGaze3 | luac.exe: ./wow/Interface/AddOns/MasterLooter/MasterLooter.lua:1: unexpected symbol near `n' |
12:19.33 | Mikk | Yeah. Ignore that one. |
12:19.40 | Mikk | The lua compiler can't compile UTF-8 files |
12:19.45 | Mikk | I'll fix it somehow |
12:19.53 | Mikk | Probably by not attempting to compile addons with UTF-8 in them at all |
12:19.56 | Corrodias | just what is utf-9, anyway? |
12:19.58 | Corrodias | er, -8 |
12:20.01 | DoomGaze3 | sweet |
12:20.04 | MentalPower | its unicode |
12:20.12 | Corrodias | then why do people not call it unicode? o.o |
12:20.14 | Mikk | UTF-8 is mix between ASCII and unicode |
12:20.18 | Mikk | well |
12:20.19 | MentalPower | and that means that I can't use WoWBench for Itemizer |
12:20.25 | Mikk | You can now MentalPower |
12:20.27 | Mikk | I fixed it |
12:20.33 | Corrodias | what ever did people invent utf-8 for if we had unicode? or did it come before unicode? |
12:20.41 | Mikk | Corrodias: Ok.. let me start from the top |
12:20.50 | MentalPower | Itemizer's files are all UTF-8 encoded |
12:21.03 | Mikk | Unicode is a standard that defines lots of character codes.. thousands |
12:21.08 | Mikk | This obviously cannot fit in a single byte |
12:21.18 | Mikk | These unicode values can be written out in lots of ways |
12:21.26 | Mikk | UTF-16 simply uses two bytes to represent each character |
12:21.30 | Mikk | UTF-32 uses four bytes |
12:21.37 | Corrodias | unicode is, as far as i was aware, entirely a two byte system |
12:21.40 | Mikk | No |
12:21.41 | Corrodias | i may well be mistaken |
12:21.42 | Mikk | That's UTF-16 |
12:21.45 | Mikk | It's just another encoding |
12:21.59 | Mikk | UTF-16 is pointless btw since there's codepoints that are larger than 65535 |
12:22.10 | Mikk | UTF-8 is a rather clever encoding |
12:22.21 | Mikk | If you're just using codepoints 0--127, it looks like an ASCII file |
12:22.29 | zenzelezz | Unicode can be 8, 16, 32 bits |
12:22.30 | Corrodias | it seems to me that windows uses utf-16 >_> |
12:22.42 | Mikk | Corrodias: Windows has UTF-16 APIs, yes |
12:22.48 | Mikk | But you can equally use UTF-8 if you want to |
12:22.54 | Mikk | Internally that is |
12:23.02 | Mikk | You have to convert to UTF-16 to actually display stuff on screen |
12:23.05 | Mikk | >.< |
12:23.06 | Corrodias | i mean, registry exports typically show spaces between each letter in notepad because it's using two bytes per each. |
12:23.16 | Mikk | yes. windows likes utf-16 encoding |
12:23.25 | Mikk | but Unicode is just the list of codepoints |
12:23.28 | MentalPower | rather wastefull IMHO |
12:23.32 | Mikk | Like I'm saying, there's three different encodings |
12:23.37 | Mikk | UTF-8 being the best one imo |
12:23.46 | MentalPower | IMO too :) |
12:23.49 | Corrodias | i suppose that doesn't necessarily mean it wouldn't put three spaces between if you had some of the high-numbered characters in there somewhere |
12:23.49 | Mikk | Since all the regular libraries work on UTF-8 encoded stuff |
12:24.16 | Mikk | UTF-16 can't represent >65535 those at all |
12:24.32 | Mikk | It's kind of pointless |
12:24.41 | Mikk | So the only realistic alternatives are UTF-8 and UTF-32 |
12:24.48 | Mikk | And UTF-32 is so bloody wasteful it makes me cry |
12:24.50 | Mikk | Which leaves UTF-8 |
12:24.57 | krka | UTF-17 FTW |
12:25.01 | Corrodias | what i've seen in mIRC indicates that UTF-8 just assigns an "escape byte" that uses the next byte to decide the actual character. or maybe a set of escape bytes. |
12:25.09 | Mikk | Something like that, yes |
12:25.31 | Mikk | Actually, the first byte has a length indicator in a few bits, and then the first few bits of the actual codepoint |
12:25.33 | Mikk | It's rather compact |
12:25.35 | Corrodias | that's why i've started to see odd things in people's text, lately, involving an A with a circle above it |
12:25.38 | zenzelezz | thought it was more of a follow-up bit on the first byte |
12:25.50 | zenzelezz | sort of "hey, you're not done with me" |
12:25.52 | Mikk | The common denominator is that ALL UTF-8 encoded characters over 127 have the high bit set |
12:26.00 | DoomGaze3 | lol, mikk! this program HATES me |
12:26.16 | DoomGaze3 | I try to invite one of the dummie toons |
12:26.24 | Mikk | Ugh don't do that |
12:26.27 | Corrodias | gb2/toontown |
12:26.29 | Mikk | Just edit config.lua |
12:26.36 | Mikk | It has a _PARTY struct |
12:26.42 | Mikk | I haven't even touched inviting |
12:27.28 | DoomGaze3 | CPP monkeys say struct. :DDD |
12:27.45 | zenzelezz | not necessarily |
12:27.50 | zenzelezz | class |
12:27.53 | Mikk | I'm not a CPP monkey. I'm a C/asm monkey :-P |
12:28.19 | MentalPower | Corrodias: you mean that "ñ" displays as two characters? |
12:28.23 | Corrodias | yes |
12:28.31 | MentalPower | lol, use Chatzilla |
12:28.32 | Corrodias | i'm using an apparently outdated version of mIRC |
12:28.41 | zenzelezz | it does when your client isn't set to interpret the character encoding |
12:28.41 | Mikk | å |
12:28.42 | MentalPower | its free, fast and opesource |
12:28.45 | DoomGaze3 | Classes are much different then structs. Although, lexically, lua can emulate classes |
12:28.46 | Mikk | what's that display like? |
12:28.49 | Corrodias | zenzelezz: or doesn't understand it |
12:28.58 | zenzelezz | that too |
12:29.01 | Corrodias | Mikk: å |
12:29.22 | Corrodias | whether or not you see -that- as i do is not something i can determine from here. |
12:29.24 | zenzelezz | although I think my X-Chat used to display a small square with four numbers in it (the code) when it couldn't display it, rather than just two characters |
12:29.38 | Mikk | å |
12:29.54 | MentalPower | ok that is an a with circle above it |
12:30.05 | Corrodias | plus a "yen" symbol after it |
12:30.06 | MentalPower | preciously whatever you typed showed up as a space char |
12:30.15 | Mikk | k |
12:30.21 | Mikk | Maybe I should just stick with UTF-8 |
12:30.49 | MentalPower | Corrodias: seriously upgrade to something a bit more... compliant |
12:30.56 | Mikk | Opera's IRC is kinda fun that way. Supports 30+ encodings |
12:31.11 | MentalPower | what were you using before? |
12:31.33 | Mikk | iso-8859-15 |
12:31.36 | Corrodias | i will, eventually |
12:32.07 | Mikk | 8859-15 being western european + euro symbol iirc |
12:32.18 | Corrodias | there's a user-friendly name |
12:32.41 | Mikk | ISO names have never been user friendly :-P |
12:33.03 | Mikk | They're designed by bloody engineers. What do you expect? :-P |
12:33.08 | MentalPower | yeah, ISO names are... wierd |
12:33.33 | MentalPower | ISO-9000, ISO-9001, ISO-9002 <---QUality control specs |
12:33.40 | MentalPower | afaik |
12:33.43 | Mikk | Yep |
12:33.49 | Mikk | And -14000 is quality control + environment |
12:33.54 | Corrodias | when if they ran out of eight thousands? they'd have to put character encodings in the 10000's or something |
12:33.58 | MentalPower | eww |
12:34.22 | Mikk | Corrodias: Luckily they're basically not extending that shit anymore. It's unicode ftw now :-) |
12:34.58 | Corrodias | i want a bumper sticker that says, "i cum for unicode". and a car. |
12:35.03 | Mikk | lol |
12:35.11 | MentalPower | lol |
12:35.17 | Mikk | "and a car" |
12:35.27 | MentalPower | yeah, that was the best part |
12:35.32 | Mikk | mm =) |
12:36.47 | Corrodias | it's really the part i care more about. |
12:42.04 | Corrodias | silly cheapass projectors. like i would really be satisfied with a resolution of 800x600 |
12:45.17 | Corrodias | 1280x720, now that's more like it. "more" like it. still not near it, though. |
12:47.10 | Corrodias | oh, eww... "Replacement bulbs are $999. The 400-watt bulb is rated at 2500 hours. There is no brightness adjustment to extend the bulb's life." |
12:51.19 | Corrodias | lens not included? this is getting too involved for me |
13:04.22 | MentalPower | is there a list of possible values for :SetDrawLayer somewhere? |
13:04.32 | MentalPower | I can't seem to find one on the Wiki |
13:09.35 | MentalPower | nm, found it http://www.wowwiki.com/XML_User_Interface#Layers_and_Textures |

13:36.43 | MentalPower | I'm sorry, but where do you see the similarity? |
13:37.19 | Mikma | layout |
13:37.32 | Mikma | and propably both do the same job |
13:40.48 | MentalPower | the only similarity is the same similarity between all itemDB addons, they all allow for re-linking of items |

16:27.02 | wereHamster | yes |
16:27.37 | wereHamster | did you try "/script if true then return else end" in-game? |
16:28.15 | Abenadi | anyone know how +healing affects Prayer of Healing? Is it (3/3.5) divided by 3 because its AOE? |
16:29.02 | Hexarobi | anyone know of an addon that auto-deletes grey items from mobs so you can skin em? |
16:29.50 | Abenadi | Hex, don't think its possible to do that. Interacting with the loot window requires clicking |
16:31.22 | wereHamster | are you sure it requires a hardware event? |
16:32.50 | Hexarobi | what about deleting grey items from ivnentory |
16:32.55 | Mikk | That doesn't require an event |
16:33.02 | Mikk | So yeah it's entirely possible to shiftloot and then delete shit |
16:33.09 | wereHamster | but does looting require one? |
16:33.13 | Mikk | fairly sure it does |
16:33.43 | Mikk | Could test it I suppose.... |
16:33.59 | Hexarobi | btw mikk, thanks for the warcraft2 sounds idea, it totally rocks with them added |
16:34.03 | Mikk | kewl =) |
16:34.33 | Hexarobi | zugg zugg |
16:34.46 | Mikk | Anyway, opening a loot window definitely requires an event... but i'm testing looting now.. |
16:34.49 | Mikk | Just for the hell of it. |
16:35.20 | Mikk | Come to think of it... this is a pointless exercise |
16:35.28 | Mikk | The only way to get anything out of a loot window is to loot it |
16:35.29 | cogwheel | wereHamster: i'm at work atm, so i didn't get the chance... :P I was just checking to make sure a macro I wrote for someone else would work |
16:35.37 | Mikk | So you really do have to loot the shit and then delete it |
16:36.15 | Hexarobi | someone must have written it already |
16:37.35 | krka | btw Hexarobi, you're mostly like commiting copyright violations by including the war2 graphics |
16:37.43 | Abenadi | looting requires more than a hardware event, it requires clicking in the loot pane. Its simply not scriptable. |
16:38.33 | krka | cogwheel:you can never be outside a function |
16:38.47 | cogwheel | that's what I figured. |
16:38.49 | Mikk | Yeah.. there isn't even an API to loot a single item |
16:39.01 | Mikk | Unless for master loot |
16:39.30 | Hexarobi | im hoping they like it enough to look the other way ;) |
16:39.34 | Hexarobi | if they ever see it |
16:40.08 | Mikk | Plus it plays inside one of their own apps :-P |
16:40.15 | Hexarobi | ill sell it to em and they can release it as an ingame warcraft 2 chess set item ;) |
16:40.45 | Mikk | Question is if it doesn't fall under their "ok to use for fan stuff" clause |
16:41.35 | Mikk | As far as I know, blizz aren't in the business of being assholes about stuff like this. |
16:41.45 | Mikk | Unlike some other companies I could mention |
16:44.12 | Hexarobi | ya |
16:44.28 | Hexarobi | blizz seems cool about that stuff, theyd take it as the homage it was intended to be |
16:45.01 | Mikk | wereHamster: I' |
16:45.06 | Kirkburn | Ah, futurama has such a wonderful ending |
16:45.12 | Mikk | wereHamster: I'm pretty sure people have written "junk crap in my inv" addons |
16:45.13 | End | strictly speaking, blizzard could take action, but I don't think that's something they'd want to do |
16:45.46 | Mikk | Especially given their "ok to use for fan stuff" clause |
16:45.54 | End | well, for a "fansite" |
16:45.59 | Kirkburn | AutoProfit: http://ui.worldofwar.net/ui.php?id=1224 |
16:46.02 | End | they do have a license for that |
16:46.15 | Mikk | is it esplicitly for _sites_ though? |
16:46.22 | End | but that only applies to specific WoW art :P |
16:46.25 | End | yeah I think so |
16:46.26 | Mikk | then again, this is going up on fan sites :-P |
16:46.34 | End | true |
16:46.43 | Mikk | I wouldn't worry about it |
16:46.51 | End | it says you can "display" |
16:47.10 | Mikk | Not like they're going to come chasing after you with a horde of lawyers first thing if they don't like it. Especially seeing as how you're making $0.00 out of it. |
16:47.16 | End | of course, that doesn't apply to warcraft II artwork, but I agree, there shouldn't be any problem with you using it |
16:47.26 | Mikk | If they don't like it they're just going to tell you to stop in legalese and nothing more to it. |
16:48.15 | Mikk | As a matter of fact, they couldn't even get anything out of going to a court of law other than a cease and desist order unless they could show losses. |
16:48.20 | krka | if you're really paranoid, don't give me credit for it though |
16:48.26 | krka | in case blizzard is angry with me |
16:48.38 | Kirkburn | C'mon .. they won't care |
16:48.42 | Mikk | Nope |
16:48.44 | Mikk | They won't |
16:48.52 | dao_at_work | just say it was all Mikk's idea. |
16:48.53 | Mikk | Just saying it's completely safe even if they did |
16:49.05 | dao_at_work | He pressured you into it! |
16:49.10 | End | it is definitely Mikk's idea |
16:49.14 | Kirkburn | There's a point where legality becomes pointless to discuss |
16:49.15 | End | it's all his fault |
16:49.20 | dao_at_work | Masterminded the whole thing. |
16:49.23 | Mikk | oi! |
16:49.29 | Mikk | I thought we agreed it was Kirkburn's fault last night! |
16:49.32 | Mikk | Or was that something else... |
16:49.50 | Mikk | Ohwait that was something on the wiki |
16:50.20 | Kirkburn | I'm nearing 2500 edits :P |
16:51.29 | Kirkburn | They've announced the EU battlegroups! http://blue.cardplace.com/cache/wow-general-en/1176837.htm |
16:52.19 | Kirkburn | One of them has a grand total of two servers |

16:52.52 | MoonWolf | big improvement there! |
16:56.36 | Kirkburn | My server is in battlegroup one, it's so old :P |
16:57.19 | Rallion | pshh, I had my first chracter on my server less than an hour after the servers went live |

16:59.32 | Kirkburn | Ya boo to you |
16:59.47 | Kirkburn | Anyone know what time the EU servers went live? |
17:00.03 | Kirkburn | I started at about 4pm |
17:01.30 | Rallion | no idea |
17:01.38 | Kirkburn | Well that's no good! |
17:02.24 | Rallion | You're all the way across this crazy-big ocean, I can't be bothered to care about you people. You people with your...ugh...culture. |
17:03.48 | Mikk | wereHamster: Just trigger on CHAT_MSG_LOOT. It has item links in it.ö |
17:04.04 | Mikk | As you receive gray items, you can just scan for them in the inventory and junk them. |
17:05.06 | Abenadi | if an addon needs to communicate with only one person in a raid, is it better to whisper or use sendaddonmessage(... "raid")? |
17:05.18 | Mikk | I say whisper |
17:05.25 | Mikk | Blizzard don't agree |
17:05.36 | Mikk | "AddOn Whisper communication is not encouraged." |
17:05.53 | cogwheel | UnitIsDead vs. UnitIsCorpse .... any advice? (to be used on a mob) |
17:06.11 | Kaso | Dont show blizzard the TexasHoldem mod, Mikk :> |
17:06.38 | Mikk | Duh. My loot handler mod uses ONLY whisper commns |
17:06.45 | zenzelezz | hm, don't some mobs "feign", like those Reanimated Corpses in Scholomance? |
17:06.49 | Mikk | Flood fill data sync across the raid leaders |
17:06.56 | zenzelezz | kill them, they "die", then resurrect and you kill them for real |
17:07.08 | Thrae | Whisper communication can't be squelched, unlike channels. And auto-ignore features may ignore whispers without proper throttling. |
17:07.13 | Kaso | when they "die" dont they just hold on 1hp |
17:07.23 | Mikk | yeah |
17:07.32 | Mikk | Thrae: without proper throttling? |
17:07.44 | Mikk | how can something you want to ignore ever be throttled? |
17:07.58 | Mikk | I mean.. it's kind of up to the sender o.O |
17:08.06 | Thrae | Mikk: Auto-ignore, hence it'll ignore too many whispers sent in X amount of time. |
17:08.07 | Mikk | Oh |
17:08.21 | Mikk | Something like that might ignore whatever that's sending too often |
17:08.25 | Mikk | Regardless of channel |
17:08.44 | Mikk | It's for my guild. I tell them to not be idiots. |
17:08.46 | Mikk | Problem solved. |
17:09.13 | Thrae | I don't doubt you can code it well Mikk, the problem lies when a whisper communication mod is -not- coded well. |
17:09.25 | Kirkburn | Telling people not to be be idiots always works well :P |
17:09.28 | Thrae | But it's mostly Blizzard just being anal. |
17:09.56 | Kirkburn | *I* doubt that Mikk can code it well ;) |

17:15.21 | Kirkburn | It wasn't rhetorical |
17:16.50 | Kirkburn | You have selected b) |
17:17.03 | zenzelezz | no I haven't |

17:19.09 | Kirkburn | (apparently, crime is "a feature of the South African landscape" according to the BBC. You better watch out for those trees, y'know) |
17:19.27 | Rallion | That tree stole my wallet! |
17:19.28 | Kirkburn | I've yet to see that |
17:19.43 | Rallion | Oh, I enjoy it a great deal |
17:20.07 | Cide | hmm, doing: "this,movey = nil" instead of "this.movey = nil" is a bad idea |
17:20.14 | Rallion | yikes |
17:21.23 | Tem | TOO SOON |
17:21.29 | Kirkburn | weoooooooowwwww, look, Aladdin's got THX which means nothing at all *oooooh* |
17:21.33 | Tem | YOU HAVE AWAKENED ME TOO SOON, EXECUTUS! |
17:21.55 | Kirkburn | sorry, boss |
17:22.16 | Cide | YOU LET THESE INSECTS RUN RAMPANT THROUGH THE HALLOWED CORE, AND NOW YOU LEAD THEM TO MY VERY LAIR? |
17:22.23 | Cide | YOU HAVE FAILED ME EXECUTUS. JUSTICE SHALL BE MET, INDEED |
17:23.04 | Cide | (microscopic fireball hits executus and he dies instantly) |
17:23.09 | End | uh oh |
17:23.15 | Kirkburn | Arrraaaaaabian niiiighhttts, like Aaaarrrabiaannnnn daaaaaays! |
17:23.28 | Cide | And now for you, insects.. Face the wrath of Ragnaros |
17:23.28 | End | who let Rag out? |
17:23.30 | Cide | or something like that |
17:23.35 | Cide | I forgot that exact quote |
17:24.20 | Cide | nah, I failed on that one |
17:24.21 | Cide | # NOW FOR YOU, INSECTS. BOLDY YOU SOUGHT THE POWER OF RAGNAROS! NOW YOU SHALL SEE IT FIRSTHAND! |
17:24.21 | Cide | # DIE, INSECT! |
17:24.31 | Rallion | hehe Aladdin does have some excellent music, doesn't it? |
17:24.57 | Kirov | The original words to the opening song of aladdin were "Where they cut off your ear if they don't like your face. It's barbaric, but hey it's home.", which made it in to the original soundtrack release, but for the home movie version (both vhs and later dvd) they changed it to "Where it's flat and immense and the heat is intense, it's barbaric, but hey it's home." |
17:24.57 | Kirkburn | Excellent music ... and robin williams, which puts it over the top :P |
17:25.10 | Kirkburn | nice |
17:25.31 | Kirov | It's still voiced by Robin Williams, but it sounds like he forgot how to do the voice, and it's a different volume, so it just kind of pops in there and sounds wrong. |
17:25.42 | Gngsk | yea |
17:25.46 | Rallion | At least they didn't replace it with a horrible line that doesn't fit. |
17:25.53 | Gngsk | I still have the original soundtrack on casette tape |
17:27.00 | Kaso | i still think ragnaros is the coolest moment in all of wow |
17:27.16 | Kirkburn | You're right, it is different! |
17:27.22 | Kaso | though from seeing videos of frostwyrm lair that might be pretty amazing |
17:27.23 | Tem | yay for rag quites |
17:28.21 | Cide | yay for cool timers |
17:28.28 | Tem | cool timers? |
17:28.41 | Cide | been working on some cool timers! |
17:28.49 | End | seeing rag for the first time was definitely awesome |
17:28.50 | Tem | for? |
17:28.55 | Tem | End, indeed |
17:29.04 | Kirov | Cide - boss timers? |
17:29.07 | Kirov | yay! |
17:29.11 | Cide | yes |
17:29.45 | Kaso | cool how? |
17:29.58 | Cide | they look very smooth |
17:30.04 | Cide | fade in, smooth movement and stuff |
17:30.21 | Kirkburn | yay for cool timers! |
17:30.36 | Kirkburn | I've never seen Rag neither. Nor. Niet. |
17:30.47 | Cide | rag's cool |
17:30.52 | Cide | first time anyway |
17:30.56 | zenzelezz | I love Ragnaros... bosses with an attitude are awesome |
17:31.10 | zenzelezz | Nefarian seems fun too, but my guild's yet to take down Razorgore |
17:31.33 | End | I've only gotten -to- Nef so far |
17:31.35 | Cide | nefarian's a more fun fight than ragnaros, but the "oh shit" moment was better for ragnaros |
17:31.46 | Kirkburn | Kel'thuzad's a bit of a dood too, ain't he :P |
17:31.51 | Rallion | The roughest locations I've been to are LBRS and Strat |
17:31.53 | Kirov | Ragnaros has the best opening |
17:31.59 | Cide | best fight in the game right now is either noth or heigan, I'd say |
17:32.07 | zenzelezz | I just love the taunts and stuff |
17:32.19 | Rallion | Oh, man, I've been playing War3 campaigns again, and I think I need to seek out what Kel'Thuzad looks like in WoW |
17:32.28 | zenzelezz | "By fire be purged!" still kills me too often |
17:32.39 | End | Kel'Thuzad looks fairly similarly afaik |
17:32.54 | Cide | pretty similar to how araj / ras look |
17:32.57 | End | yeah |
17:33.09 | Kirov | I haven't made it to Noth |
17:33.24 | Rallion | there are actually a lot of things that look better in War3 than in WoW |
17:33.28 | End | I think Kel'Thuzad might have a slightly different skin, but his model is probably the same |
17:33.28 | zenzelezz | they're all liches, aren't they? Would make sense that they look alike |
17:33.28 | Cide | that fight is simply awesome |
17:33.31 | zenzelezz | also the end-boss in RFD |
17:33.32 | *** join/#wowi-lounge Ratbert_CP (n=KCummins@proxy-ce5.disney.com) |
17:33.42 | End | yeah it would make sense |
17:33.59 | Kirov | Only seen Anub'Rekhan and Instructor Resuvious from Naxx. I quit the guild I was in and we're basically starting from scratch, so we're doing MC this week for the first time. |
17:34.09 | Rallion | My guild has 6 people in it. |
17:34.12 | Kirov | Half the guild in T2 8/8, the other half in blues and greens. |
17:34.48 | Mikk | That's going to cause friction |
17:34.50 | Mikk | A lot |
17:34.57 | End | yeah probably |
17:35.04 | Cide | friction is a myth! |
17:35.27 | Mikk | Anyway.. i need to get some actual coding done and it ain't happening while I'm idling in IRC so... |
17:35.32 | End | my guild is mostly T1/T2 with some blue+few epics, and we have friction |
17:35.32 | Mikk | seeya'll |
17:35.33 | Mikk | =) |

17:36.18 | End | erm I mean mostly T1/T2 people and then some -other- are blue people |
17:36.28 | Kirov | Well, my old guild, the 5 main hunters from it left when I did and joined the same guild, so they were left guildless. Then they and another guild (who most of my old guild hates, and they hate us) merged in to one ... at which point all of their hunters quit too. |
17:36.37 | Kirov | So, they're still fucked. |
17:36.41 | End | lol |
17:36.43 | Kirov | They have 1 hunter. |
17:36.53 | Kirov | Down from 12 or so |
17:37.57 | End | hmm, my guild is probably one of the oldest on my server |
17:38.55 | Tem | Agreed, the "Oh Shit!" moment for Rag is awesome |
17:39.32 | Kirov | End how old? |
17:40.07 | Tem | mine too, I think |
17:40.20 | Tem | we formed up in the begining of december 04 |
17:40.24 | Kirov | End - my old guild was one of the first to down Rag on my server, first to kill Nefarian, first to kill 3 out of 4 of the green dragons, and the only one to finish the AQ opening quest chain. |
17:40.56 | Kirov | And then we entered AQ40 and half the main raiding team quit the game out of boredom |
17:41.00 | Tem | we didn't start raiding until a year in though |
17:41.02 | End | well, no original guild on my server retains the same name since start |
17:41.28 | Tem | there are only 2 guilds that I know of that retains the orignal name |
17:41.32 | Tem | mine and one other |
17:41.45 | End | actually, I can think of a couple on alliance side |
17:41.49 | End | none on horde side |
17:42.26 | End | my guild "started" out as underground knights, but the guild leader stopped playing so it pretty much reformed |
17:42.42 | End | we didn't start raiding til about 10 months ago though |
17:43.15 | End | most horde guilds (my faction) have reformed several times in the last year, if not more |
17:43.44 | End | one guild has mostly retained the same name, but has gone through about 6 or 7 name changes in the last year |
17:43.52 | End | erm, same members I mean |
17:44.34 | Kirov | One of the oldest horde guilds on my server still exists, but they changed names once, then split in to two guilds, then merged again under a new name. |
17:45.28 | Kirov | Their GM keeps quitting the game then coming back. |

18:06.20 | Abenadi | if a hunter uses PetAttack(), and then himself selects another creature with the same name and level, can I check if they're different using UnitIsUnit("playertarget","playerpettarget")? |
18:06.38 | Abenadi | or do pets not have targets persay? |
18:06.40 | cogwheel | "pettarget" should work |
18:06.51 | cogwheel | and plain target |
18:06.56 | Abenadi | oh yeah, sorry |
18:06.59 | Kirov | playertarget works |
18:07.10 | Kirov | but I believe it queries the server |
18:07.15 | Kirov | which is bad |
18:07.39 | Abenadi | My main question was can the petattack feature be used to distinguish mobs |
18:07.42 | krka | you dont have to write "player" before "target" you know |
18:07.48 | Abenadi | I KNOW |
18:07.49 | Abenadi | thanks : ) |
18:07.56 | Abenadi | missing the point!!! |
18:08.01 | End | lol |
18:08.03 | krka | :P |
18:08.06 | cogwheel | Once you call PetAttack() your pet is on his own |

18:19.48 | Abenadi | scripting-wise i mean |
18:22.27 | wereHamster | watching for "Player has picked up the flag" ? |
18:22.50 | Abenadi | yeah, i'm just wondering for when I come into a BG and someone already has the flag |
18:22.56 | Mery | uhm for your own team you could check whos in the same position as the flag but watching the events it prolly better... |

18:23.50 | Abenadi | and i mean for the other team |
18:30.01 | Mery | i don't think so |
19:07.47 | Shadowed | Abenadi: Watching CHAT_MSG_BG_SYSTEM_HORDE and CHAT_MSG_BG_SYSTEM_ALLIANCE are the only way to get the flag carriers, if you're already in a game you can only get friendly carrier from comparing all the teammates positions with the flag ( as mikk said ), and if it's the enemy carrier you can't do anything about it |
19:08.04 | Shadowed | *if you join a game mid way in |
19:09.45 | Abenadi | right, thanks |
19:11.18 | Shadowed | if the server is lagging then sometimes the map isn't updated after a couple of seconds for the friendly carrier, so i wouldn't suggest relying on only that for getting it |
19:21.05 | zenzelezz | three bosses so far in ZG, every one has dropped Band of Servitude |
19:21.49 | Shadowed | nice |

19:39.14 | Kaso | ok, random question but proberly someone can anwser it, howcome thottbott has various crafting recipes on it for items that dont exist, eg holy protection potion etc, are they attually spells havested from ingame or are they from somewhere |

19:47.09 | AnduinLothar | so there are spells that are in the game and availible via console commands, but unaccessable by normal players |
19:48.02 | AnduinLothar | blizz designed holy prot from day 1 but decided not to impliment it |
19:48.55 | Kirov | There's stuff in the API for holy resistence |
19:49.08 | Kirov | But it appears to just share the same return as arcane |
19:50.00 | Thrae | Prob. realized there's not enough Holy damage-dealing spells that aren't only vs Undead to require a separate Holy resistance |
19:50.01 | Kirov | http://www.wowwiki.com/API_TYPE_ItemString - farmed from in-game btw |
19:50.27 | AnduinLothar | well, all paladin spell damage is holy |
19:50.28 | Kirov | which I haven't updated for this patch |
19:50.36 | Kirov | paladin, priest |
19:50.44 | Kirov | Priest does shadow and holy |
19:50.48 | AnduinLothar | which is one of the only reason paladins are viable in melee |
19:51.00 | AnduinLothar | because their spells can't be resisted |
19:51.06 | Kirov | They can |
19:51.12 | Thrae | Who would ever gear vs Paladins? |
19:51.15 | Shadowed | I though they can still be resisted by level check, but you can't stack resists? |
19:51.15 | AnduinLothar | well, there's a general resistance |
19:51.25 | AnduinLothar | right |
19:51.26 | Kirov | holy spell resistances still obey the level difference |
19:51.49 | Shadowed | the wiki is slow |
19:51.52 | AnduinLothar | there's no partial resistance is what i meant |
19:52.08 | AnduinLothar | you can all out block any spell |
19:52.15 | AnduinLothar | same % chance |
19:53.12 | AnduinLothar | but since pallies don't have multiple spell types if you had holy gear you would be immune to all of their non-white damage |
19:53.30 | AnduinLothar | where as any other class with spell damage could jsut pick a diff type of magic |
19:53.43 | Kirov | shadowed - that ItemString page is around 500kb |

20:03.02 | purl | netcurse <n=net@dslb-088-064-179-084.pools.arcor-ip.net> was last seen on IRC in channel #wowi-lounge, 18d 16h 55m 25s ago, saying: 'i think i can do this lego .p'. |
20:03.23 | Shadowed | he didn't listen to lego, that's why he hasn't been back in two weeks |
20:03.28 | Mikk | hehe |
20:03.41 | Kirov | who ever listens to lego? |
20:04.01 | AnduinLothar | i do, smart guy |
20:04.01 | Shadowed | I think the fact that he hasn't been back in 18 days is proof that listening to him is a good idea |

20:04.46 | Mikk | if you cba to look, #3 is the one to vote for :-P |
20:05.06 | AnduinLothar | are there any interesting latency bar mods? |
20:05.18 | AnduinLothar | all i've seen is an old minimap one |
20:05.26 | Mikk | The latency meter is bleh anyway |
20:05.42 | Mikk | Be better to measure latency yourself |
20:05.56 | Mikk | Like... how long does it take for a spell to start casting after you tell it to start |
20:06.00 | AnduinLothar | yeah, are there any interesting ways to display it or stats over time? |
20:06.02 | Shadowed | I don't really like #3 |
20:06.03 | Kirov | Mikk - actually, I was curious how one goes about that |
20:06.34 | Mikk | Myeah.. I was starting to think about that too |
20:06.35 | AnduinLothar | what might be interesting is a bar graph over time the overlays the minimap and can be toggled.. |
20:06.54 | Shadowed | but then again |
20:07.00 | Shadowed | 1 and 2 are worst |
20:07.01 | Kirov | specifically attempting to more accurately sync combat events across multiple clients |
20:07.08 | Mikk | Shadowed: keeping the current one is a valid option too =) |
20:07.18 | AnduinLothar | #3 is crap on widescreen |
20:07.27 | Mikk | how so? |
20:07.33 | AnduinLothar | it's centered |
20:07.40 | Kirov | it's tiny |
20:07.42 | AnduinLothar | with like 4in blank space on each side |
20:07.49 | Kirov | #1 is almost too big |
20:07.50 | Shadowed | The color scheme seems kind of odd |
20:08.18 | Kirov | Shadowed - especially considering the rather consistant lack of color in the rest of the site |
20:08.23 | Shadowed | yeah |
20:08.41 | AnduinLothar | i'm looking at it and it all looks super spread out on my resolution |
20:08.55 | AnduinLothar | tons of whitespace |
20:09.07 | Shadowed | I'd vote but then i'd have to do actual math to figure out the timezone in EDT |
20:09.16 | AnduinLothar | -- |
20:09.38 | AnduinLothar | that's the timestamped signature, no? |
20:09.54 | Shadowed | That'd require me to know what the timestamp signature is |
20:10.06 | AnduinLothar | -- i thought |
20:10.14 | Shadowed | ah |

20:11.50 | AnduinLothar | anyway. i like the text formatting of #3, just not the layout |
20:12.24 | Mikk | it's easy to remove the max-width statement |
20:12.26 | Shadowed | agreed with AL, the color scheme is odd considering the wiki doesn't have much color in general |
20:12.39 | AnduinLothar | like the only good thing it has going in layout is that you can make the window 5in wide and still read it |
20:12.49 | Mikk | but making it flow to max width looks shit since there's so little text |
20:13.13 | AnduinLothar | right, can we make more collumns? |
20:13.22 | AnduinLothar | or collumns or collumns |
20:13.25 | AnduinLothar | of* |
20:13.54 | Mikk | how wide is your screen? |
20:14.01 | AnduinLothar | 20" wide |
20:14.02 | Mikk | i'm at 1280 and it looks good to me o.O |
20:14.06 | Mikk | pixels |
20:14.14 | AnduinLothar | 1680 i htink |
20:14.41 | AnduinLothar | 1680x1050 |
20:15.10 | Mikk | making a lot more columns kind of breaks down in lower resultions ya know |
20:15.10 | AnduinLothar | granted i dont usually strethc pages that wide |
20:15.27 | Shadowed | i'm at 1600x1200 and I don't think it looks that bad at maximum width, just don't like the color scheme |
20:15.28 | End | I don't like 3 because I have to scroll down to get to the API link :P |
20:15.38 | AnduinLothar | ya end same |
20:15.48 | Shadowed | go vote then! |
20:16.00 | AnduinLothar | nah, i'm trying to think of improvement |
20:16.20 | AnduinLothar | i prefer the current for accessability |
20:16.23 | End | well, I don't like 1, and 2 is pretty meh |
20:16.25 | Gryphen | Boo Cosmos libs ganked |
20:16.39 | AnduinLothar | mikk's been trying to do that for ages |
20:16.45 | Mikk | eh? |
20:16.47 | Mikk | ganked? |
20:16.58 | cogwheel | 2 looked nice until i got past the first box... all the other boxes below it gave me a headache |
20:17.04 | Gryphen | no one click access |
20:17.14 | Shadowed | I'd probably remove the "welcome to wiki" and such info since it's explained at the bottom anyway, and use less colors. |
20:17.35 | Shadowed | would use #3 then |
20:21.20 | Mikk | well.. it's not like i'm trying to twist anyone's arm.. vote for something if you like it, or don't vote at all if you could care less :-P |
20:22.14 | Gryphen | I vote for whatever gives the first project on the wiki top billing ;p |
20:22.27 | Gryphen | <3 |
20:22.30 | Mikk | haha |
20:23.58 | Hexarobi | move what is wiki? below the links is an excellent idea |
20:24.04 | Hexarobi | s/move/moving/ |
20:24.29 | Shadowed | not the what is wiki the "welcome to the wiki" at the top of the mage |
20:28.55 | Shadowed | anyway, AFK! |
20:32.19 | Mikk | I don't see what's wrong with having "welcome" at the top. Putting "welcome" below a wall of text is kinda silly imo :-P |
20:32.25 | Mikk | But that's just my opinion =) |
20:32.42 | Hexarobi | ya, i like the welcome at the top, then the links, then the what is wiki |
20:33.15 | Tain | I vote no welcome at all. |

20:46.28 | Hexarobi | they should code that in ;) |
20:46.49 | Abenadi | How do I break out early from a "for index,value in pairs(table) do" loop? |
20:47.03 | Abenadi | can I use "break"? |
20:47.37 | cogwheel | that's what break is for |
20:47.41 | cogwheel | no pun intended ;) |
20:48.22 | Abenadi | I wasn't sure if you could use break in a for loop, i knew you could use it in a while loop |
20:51.09 | Kaso | if you're learning lua abenadi its good to have lua standalone installed on your computer then you quicky test stuff like that out |
20:51.15 | cogwheel | technically it has nothing to do with the "for".... it's merely the do...end pair. (you can actually put do...end without for or while if you wanted) |
20:53.16 | cogwheel | at least that's what the manual seems to say ... |

21:31.09 | Kirkburn | Also, I just fixed max-width to work on IE7 :D |
21:31.21 | Kirkburn | Mikk, it only works for divs, so it seems |
21:32.29 | Mikk | IE sux |
21:32.33 | Mikk | 80em not 50em? |
21:32.37 | Gryphen | FF sux |
21:32.39 | Kirkburn | AnduinLothar complained |
21:32.46 | Kirkburn | 50em was pushing it rather |
21:32.51 | Mikk | Now I'm complaining. It looks retarted with all that space |
21:32.52 | Mikk | =) |
21:32.59 | Hexarobee | html sucks |
21:33.19 | Kirkburn | You can't please everyone :) |
21:33.25 | Kirov | yes you can |
21:33.34 | Hexarobee | let apple do it |
21:33.40 | Shadowed | it's called "telling everyone who disagrees to shut up and deal" |
21:33.40 | Mikk | AL shouldn't run his bloody browser full screen wide on his 1680 pixel wide screen. end of story :-P |
21:33.45 | Kirov | kill those who don't like it, and the remaining people will be "everyone" |
21:33.59 | Gryphen | I dont see any problem in IE with the version before your latest edit Kirkburn |
21:34.12 | Kirkburn | The max-width didn't work |
21:34.23 | Shadowed | I always run my browser at full screen, don't really like all the empty space in it |
21:34.25 | AnduinLothar | is there a page for non-addon develement tools? |
21:35.15 | Kirkburn | How do you mean? |
21:35.38 | Mikk | Do you want the width like it was or like it's now? (wider) |
21:35.39 | AnduinLothar | like blp2 converters and the xml creator app |
21:35.49 | Gryphen | i liked it as it was before in IE7 |
21:35.49 | Mikk | i think its in there AL |
21:35.51 | Mikk | somewhere |
21:35.57 | AnduinLothar | find a link for me |
21:36.23 | Gryphen | It may not have been what it was supposed to be, but i liked the look. |
21:36.27 | Cairenn | http://www.wowwiki.com/UI_FAQ/AddOn_Author_Resources |
21:36.32 | AnduinLothar | and why'd the widget link get nuked from the front page candidates? |
21:36.32 | Mikk | http://www.wowwiki.com/Interface_Customization "Development Tools" box |
21:36.47 | Mikk | Because of the nice interface customization menu that's actually useful now |
21:36.52 | Mikk | the one you're not looking at :-P |
21:37.23 | Kirkburn | Gryphen, the difference should only be that in IE7 it'll now limit the width rather than looking stupidly large on a widescreen monitor |
21:40.53 | Mikk | on a side note.. the lower half doesn't do that still :-P |
21:43.23 | Kirkburn | wha? |
21:43.40 | Kirkburn | The div encloses the entire table |
21:43.59 | Kirkburn | aha |
21:44.04 | AnduinLothar | 2 tables |
21:44.17 | Kirkburn | Sorted |
21:44.28 | Kirkburn | The other table still had a max-width defined |
21:44.45 | Kirkburn | (Okay the div enclosed both tables ;) |
21:44.54 | Kirkburn | And I notice you've reduced it to 60em now :/ |
21:45.46 | Kirkburn | It might be fine at 1280, but it starting to look odd at 1440 |
21:45.50 | AnduinLothar | 80 imo |
21:45.54 | Mikk | Everything looks shit about 1280 |
21:46.01 | Mikk | above* |
21:46.11 | AnduinLothar | er |
21:46.14 | Mikk | Either there'll be lots of space, or the lines will be too long to read |
21:46.17 | AnduinLothar | nm 60 is good for your vers |
21:46.25 | AnduinLothar | i added a collomn to mine and am using 80 |
21:47.22 | AnduinLothar | http://www.wowwiki.com/WoWWiki:Main_Page_Dev_4 |
21:48.01 | Mikk | add it to the vote then =) |
21:48.12 | AnduinLothar | still thinking |
21:48.23 | Kirkburn | ewww |
21:48.30 | AnduinLothar | not sure i like the two font sizes on the top line |
21:48.49 | AnduinLothar | but i think 'welcome' is silly |
21:49.01 | Kirkburn | You have to remember that not everyone has a large monitor AnduinLothar |
21:49.16 | Kirkburn | We have to be able to support those at 1024 |
21:49.25 | AnduinLothar | ya, it's a little bunched up if i only use half my screen |
21:49.45 | Kirkburn | Don't let it stop you testing stuff though :D |
21:50.04 | AnduinLothar | doesn't look too bad on 1024 imo |
21:50.21 | Kirkburn | And 800x600 |
21:50.25 | Kirkburn | =) |
21:50.38 | AnduinLothar | nah, i dont support 800 |
21:50.55 | AnduinLothar | if you have a pda use a pda format |
21:51.08 | AnduinLothar | otherwise even 10" laptops have 1024 |
21:51.19 | Kirkburn | I know the welcome bit seems odd for frequent visitors, but there's always new people coming to the wiki, so they need something to welcome them |
21:51.27 | AnduinLothar | i dissagree |
21:51.51 | AnduinLothar | you dont put welcome in a header to a technical paper |
21:52.00 | AnduinLothar | and you dont put a welcome on a toc |
21:52.06 | Mikk | it's a front page |
21:52.06 | Kirkburn | This is a website though, not a technical paper :/ |
21:52.11 | AnduinLothar | why should you put one on a website |
21:52.12 | Mikk | we can move the toc to another page if you like |
21:52.33 | AnduinLothar | and increase page traffic needlessly? no thanks |

23:04.56 | cladhaire | AnduinLothar: Ah no, that wasn't me =) |
23:05.00 | AnduinLothar | hmmm |
23:05.03 | cladhaire | I think ckknight looked at it |
23:05.05 | cladhaire | but don't quote me on it =) |
23:06.26 | AnduinLothar | what don't you like about it? |
23:06.42 | Shadowed | It doesn't match the wiki at all |
23:07.06 | AnduinLothar | the wiki's completely uncolored |
23:07.15 | AnduinLothar | color takes time |
23:07.25 | Shadowed | Having every page uncolored and then only one colored looks odd in general |
23:07.32 | AnduinLothar | most pages dont need to be visually appealing |
23:07.58 | AnduinLothar | well, the main page WAS uncolored, that was the standard set |
23:08.14 | AnduinLothar | if you want to color things you have to make a prominent example |
23:09.00 | Shadowed | If you want to start coloring things then you should probably discuss how you're going to do it, and not just update one page |
23:09.05 | AnduinLothar | needs to bee a wiki shortcut for those header bars |

23:11.46 | Seracht | hi |
23:11.54 | Seracht | if I have a question about a mod where would I ask it? |
23:12.05 | Seracht | it says not to ask in replies about the mod |
23:12.44 | ckknight | hey all, back |
23:14.04 | Cairenn | wb |
23:14.52 | Kirkburn | Y'know I hadn't realised that it's only 2 months until Vista is supposed to be finished |
23:15.19 | AnduinLothar | where's gello... |
23:15.24 | AnduinLothar | ~seen gello |
23:15.43 | purl | gello <n=chatzill@pool-71-241-204-241.port.east.verizon.net> was last seen on IRC in channel #wowi-lounge, 15d 7h 46m 5s ago, saying: 'DressUpModel:SetUnit takes eons on 1.12. If any of you have a mod that uses models I'd make sure you use PlayerModel instead.'. |
23:15.51 | Hexarobee | sera, i think the idea is every mod gets a thread in the forums for asking questions |
23:15.54 | Kirkburn | Shadowed, it's the main page - it's not as if all of wikipedia's pages look like their front page |
23:16.05 | ckknight | Kirkburn, you really think Vista will come in 2 months? |
23:16.08 | ckknight | I don't |
23:16.20 | ckknight | and I see Vista as a good thing |
23:17.33 | Kirkburn | Interesting article on it: http://www.winsupersite.com/showcase/winvista_ready.asp |
23:20.37 | Kirkburn | A rather humourous article :P |
23:21.02 | cogwheel | hehe.... "And then there are the online pundits, many of whom are barely old enough to legally buy alcohol. These guys are classic. Let's just say that a lack of experience and a strongly worded opinion don't result in the most coherent of arguments and leave it at that." |
23:22.01 | Seracht | Hexarobee alright |
23:22.02 | Seracht | thanks |
23:22.07 | Seracht | kirk problem with clearfont lol |
23:22.29 | Kirkburn | Hello to you too :) |
23:22.36 | Seracht | hi |
23:22.49 | Kirkburn | sorry ... seracht dood, hi, lolz |
23:22.52 | Seracht | I tried changing the font (by changing font in the /fonts folder) but clearfont overrides it to its normal font |
23:22.53 | Kirkburn | =) |
23:23.04 | Seracht | so I deleted clear font :( |
23:23.10 | *** part/#wowi-lounge Mery (i=metelman@p54AEE6F5.dip.t-dialin.net) |
23:23.42 | Kirkburn | Confused |
23:23.56 | Seracht | ok |
23:24.17 | Seracht | I downloaded clearfont (the newest ones) and it has 2 folders, one that is in addons and one in the main WoW folder (this is the /Fonts folder) |
23:24.30 | Seracht | I tried to change fonts, (to calibiri) so I changed it in the fonts folder |
23:24.43 | Seracht | but when I load the UI, clearfont switches it over to the clearfont font you have |
23:25.15 | Kirkburn | You have to replace all the font files |
23:25.51 | Kirkburn | (going back to Vista ... I hope that for the next version, Vienna, they'll just say it'll be done when it's done) |
23:26.43 | Kirkburn | The WoW/Fonts folder does the basic work, the AddOn...\Fonts folder does all the different styles |
