00:00.03 | Tain | OUtside of PVP not a big deal. |
00:00.04 | Mikk | war stomp = more kickass |
00:00.04 | ckknight | alright, I'm gonna be an Orc, I think |
00:00.06 | Mikk | it's another stun |
00:00.20 | Tain | Yeah hard to beat war stomp for an ability though. |
00:00.23 | vhaarr | war stomp rocks, and so does +hp |
00:00.39 | Mikk | of course, war stomp ceases being cool in raids but ... ohewll |
00:00.41 | Tain | But, Tauren town blows. |
00:00.45 | Mikk | hahaha |
00:00.51 | Mikk | as if you stay there for more than 10 levels :-P |

00:00.55 | ckknight | Orc racials don't seem bad |
00:01.03 | Tain | I mean Thunder Bluff. |
00:01.12 | vhaarr | ckknight: they're not useful for leveling |
00:01.12 | ckknight | what's so bad about TB? |
00:01.15 | Tain | I hate it. |
00:01.22 | Tain | That multiple level bridge nonsense. |
00:01.23 | zenzelezz | the 5% stun resist thing is nice |
00:01.26 | ckknight | I think it's great |
00:01.37 | GeoDaMancer | I think he always falls. |
00:01.38 | vhaarr | not many mobs stun you that you need to care about |
00:01.56 | ckknight | vhaarr, I don't really see how Tauren's are better |
00:02.04 | vhaarr | their abilites are always useful |
00:02.08 | vhaarr | +hp and aoe stun |
00:02.21 | vhaarr | orcs abilites are only useful in pvp |
00:02.33 | Mikk | pff |
00:02.50 | Mikk | blood fury is useful in pve too |
00:02.51 | zenzelezz | not quite, but they're not essential either |
00:02.58 | Mikk | not when you're TANKING but ... |
00:03.01 | vhaarr | ;) |
00:03.18 | vhaarr | well in general, I'd much rather level a tauren warrior than an orc one |
00:03.33 | vhaarr | also because they get +herb ^^ |
00:03.46 | zenzelezz | and NR |
00:04.00 | vhaarr | what do orcs get, SR? |
00:04.07 | zenzelezz | don't think they get any |
00:04.07 | vhaarr | no that's UD, I guess |
00:04.12 | vhaarr | o_O |
00:04.18 | Mikk | orcs don't get a +resist |
00:04.20 | Tain | Underwater breathing! |

03:51.43 | Cairenn | hi GremWarsong |
03:51.48 | GeoDaMancer | What do you code for? |
03:51.58 | GeoDaMancer | 'Lo GW. |
03:52.11 | Cairenn | I did some back in EQ |
03:52.30 | GeoDaMancer | Ahhh, so you jus' hang about in 'ere? |
03:52.35 | GremWarsong | Can anyone tell me how much power you have in creating GUI elements in LUA? (That you would normally define in XML) |
03:52.46 | Cairenn | ummm, yeah, I suppose you could say that |
03:53.24 | GeoDaMancer | Well, that, GW is exactly what I am looking at right now. |
03:53.37 | GremWarsong | Convenient question then ;-) |
03:53.40 | GremWarsong | I want to minimize my XML |
03:53.55 | GremWarsong | and still draw complicated forms |
03:53.55 | Gngsk | I heard you could do anything in LUA that you could in XML, aside from templates |
03:54.05 | GeoDaMancer | I don't know that I can actually help, though. I don't even know how to make new frames with it. |
03:54.22 | GremWarsong | I think there is a createframe command |
03:54.27 | Gngsk | yep |
03:54.37 | GremWarsong | CreateFrame("frameType"[ ,"name"][, parent][, "inheritFrame"]) - Create a new frame of the specified type |
03:54.50 | GeoDaMancer | Well, that's great. |
03:54.59 | GeoDaMancer | Like, totally man. |
03:55.03 | GremWarsong | And that returns a pointer to the new frame... |
03:55.07 | GremWarsong | and then you can just store that |
03:55.13 | GremWarsong | I want to eliminate XML =) |
03:55.29 | GeoDaMancer | I wouldn't eliminate it, GW, I'd just eliminate most of it. |
03:55.57 | GremWarsong | Yeah |
03:55.59 | GeoDaMancer | It seems to me, if you use templates it would be simpler just to keep them and referrence them in the inheritFrame portion, rather than reinventing each. |
03:56.29 | GremWarsong | I want to create templates that are shareable in-game by sending them to other players through private channels! |
03:56.52 | GeoDaMancer | I'd have no idea how to do that. |
03:56.57 | GremWarsong | In other words, I want to be able to send a player instructions on how to draw his UI while in-game |
03:57.29 | GremWarsong | I do, I just wanted to know about LUA's limitations regarding UI placement |
03:58.01 | GremWarsong | I want players to be able to draw pictures, and then share them |
03:58.10 | GremWarsong | Theoretically, you can make a 'paint' program inside WoW |
03:58.11 | GeoDaMancer | Anything you can do in xml, you can do in lua. Soo... *Shrugs.* |
03:58.36 | GeoDaMancer | I'm sure you could. |
03:58.37 | GremWarsong | That's such an awesome answer |
03:58.41 | GremWarsong | The answer I was hoping for =) |
03:59.54 | GremWarsong | Is there a way to 'emulate' Bindings.xml definitions with LUA |
04:00.01 | GremWarsong | As in, create definitions in realtime |
04:00.51 | GeoDaMancer | That I couldn't say, but then xml normally goes.. Whoosh! Right over my head. |
04:01.12 | GremWarsong | ah |
04:01.25 | Mr_Rabies2 | is there anything on wowwiki about the new pvp system that's gonna be in TBC? :O |

04:23.52 | zespri_work | how did illidan and kael and otheres got to outland? the dark portal was destroyed from both sides, so how? |
04:24.17 | norgs | magic |
04:25.03 | zespri_work | It's not an answer I'm after, and you know this. |
04:25.14 | zespri_work | Of course it's magic, everything in WoW is magic |
04:26.30 | GremWarsong | maybe demons summoned them there or something |
04:27.00 | GremWarsong | Its been too long since I played war3 |
04:27.25 | zespri_work | same here, that"s why I'm asking =) |
04:28.36 | zespri_work | well, the warden, (whats-her-name) followed them to outlands, and sure the same demons wouldn't summon her |
04:28.49 | zespri_work | so there must be another established way =) |
04:29.56 | GremWarsong | She ran inside a portal that Illidan summoned |
04:29.59 | GremWarsong | I remember that |
04:30.21 | GremWarsong | Either that, or the demon lord opened the portal for Illidan |
04:30.24 | GremWarsong | and then the warden just ran inside |
04:30.47 | GremWarsong | I believe all demons have the power to move to Outland...and Illidan was part demon |
04:33.19 | zespri_work | right. It's jsut those guys who gave their lives distroying the dark portal from the outland side made a such a big deal of it. you know, scarificing themselves and stuff, and then it turns out that everybody and thier cat still can travell back and forth |
04:34.08 | GeoDaMancer | Well... |
04:34.15 | GeoDaMancer | Death and sacrifice don't always work. |
04:38.05 | ckknight_ | death and taxes always do. |
04:38.29 | GeoDaMancer | True. |
04:39.35 | ckknight_ | yea, since Illidan stole the power of that skull thing, he has the power to open and close portals |
04:40.00 | Mr_Rabies2 | <zespri_work> how did illidan and kael and otheres got to outland? the dark portal was destroyed from both sides, so how? |
04:40.11 | Mr_Rabies2 | i'm pretty sure illidan can open temporary portals at will to outland |
04:40.22 | Mr_Rabies2 | either he or kael, if i recall |
04:40.37 | GeoDaMancer | Dark Portal == Permanent. <.< |
04:41.24 | Mr_Rabies2 | i know that kael and vashj, and i think illidan, went into a small circular portal one of them conjured |
04:41.28 | ckknight | right, GeoDaMancer |
04:41.33 | Mr_Rabies2 | i need to replay that thing |
04:41.37 | ckknight | but Illidan can open his own smaller ones |
04:41.40 | ckknight | and close them as well |
04:41.54 | ckknight | and seemingly, a few heroes always come through the side just before they close |
04:41.58 | GeoDaMancer | So, that's the big difference. Dark Portal you could march an army through, Illidan's can't. |
04:42.09 | zespri_work | the main concern with the portal that it can be used to transport armies from an other world to invade azeroth. It doesn't matter is portal permanent or temporart as long as you can transport reuired force through it |
04:42.18 | ckknight | well, Illidan did bring all the Blood Elf refugees through it. |
04:42.19 | Mr_Rabies2 | yeah, his is like a mage portal |
04:42.24 | Mr_Rabies2 | small and open for only a minute or so |
04:42.37 | Mr_Rabies2 | he's probably like |

04:48.45 | Mr_Rabies2 | and we're just kinda helping with his giant waves of undead and stuff :o |
04:48.58 | ckknight | then Arthas defeated Illidan |
04:49.06 | ckknight | but Illidan went crazy and thought he defeated Arthas |
04:49.11 | ckknight | and retreated to Outland |
04:49.15 | Mr_Rabies2 | yeah |
04:49.27 | ckknight | and Arthas is now merged with Nerzhul in Northrend |
04:49.36 | Mr_Rabies2 | but Malfurion and Illidan are kind of psychically connected |

09:15.38 | AnduinLothar | not hard. just can't update it when away from the mailbox |
09:15.54 | AnduinLothar | there's an addon ro two that let you show the mailbox |
09:16.03 | AnduinLothar | none that use the builtin icon |
09:32.15 | Corrodias | holy crap, getting anywhere with AB reb would take months |
09:32.25 | AnduinLothar | wsg is worse |
09:32.43 | Corrodias | we just won my first AB game and got a whole 100 rep (not counting token turnin) |
09:33.11 | AnduinLothar | if you don't cap the flag in wsg you don't get any rep |
09:33.14 | Corrodias | yeah, i've played 20 WSG games, winning 12, and i'm not friendly yet. after 9 AV games, winning 3, i'm just under honored. |
09:33.43 | AnduinLothar | Av is cake to farm now. i hit exalted last week |
09:34.16 | Corrodias | because each game doesn't take hours |
09:34.19 | Corrodias | *usually |
09:34.24 | Elkano | in AV you get a bunch of extra honor from the farm quests |
09:34.52 | Corrodias | honor or rep? |
09:35.37 | AnduinLothar | rep |
09:35.46 | AnduinLothar | but both actually |
09:35.50 | Corrodias | spent another 5 hours in BRD, and actually finished 7 quests |
09:36.04 | AnduinLothar | av is easy to farm rep, especially for warriors and healers |
09:36.16 | AnduinLothar | er |
09:36.18 | AnduinLothar | honor* |
09:36.28 | AnduinLothar | easy for anyone to farm av rep |
09:36.44 | Corrodias | ah. it seems that honor is given based only on how far away from the kill |
09:36.55 | AnduinLothar | wsg is actually fastest honor if you have a good guild that runs it consistantly |
09:37.32 | AnduinLothar | honor is based on how much damage you did to the target or healign you did to the peopel that did the damage |
09:38.21 | AnduinLothar | so if you heal the lowest health around you you get multiple hk's. because anyone you healed who got an hk gives you an hk |
09:38.33 | Corrodias | nice |
09:38.53 | Corrodias | now here's an annoyance: Hurricane cannot stop flag caps |
09:39.01 | Corrodias | my one aoe attack and it's useless for that |
09:39.14 | Corrodias | not wsg style but av/ab style |
09:39.51 | AnduinLothar | so dps classes get the most honor based on damage while they're alive, and the warriro stays alive the longest so it's easiest for the warrior to get honor |
09:40.03 | AnduinLothar | then healers if you heal well and heal multiple targets |

09:41.29 | AnduinLothar | and hk's isn't directly perpotionate to honor, but it's a better estimate than killing blows |
09:42.17 | AnduinLothar | today in wsg alone i got 13000 honor and 53 hks |
09:43.12 | Corrodias | i love a good defensive team in AV, by the way. in 2 of the 3 games we've won, of the 9 i've played, i was on a strong defensive team that actually slowed them down. allies usually give up on beating galv after 2 or 3 tries. |
09:43.48 | AnduinLothar | you need both to win in ym experience |
09:44.13 | Corrodias | people don't seem to like to play D very much. at most we get 5 people. |
09:44.30 | Corrodias | in one place, that is. i suppose other areas have more defenders/recappers |
09:44.59 | AnduinLothar | i like to play offense till we get the last graveyard, then play d |

15:56.51 | malreth | ah... ok. saw someone with your name in the x-realm BGs over the weekend on my cluster |
15:57.01 | Cide | nah |
15:57.06 | Cide | I go under the name "Swede" anyway |
15:57.16 | malreth | ah. understood |
15:57.28 | Cide | (finally managed to switch my name when transfers came, thank god) |
15:57.41 | malreth | well, i totally pwned him and i wanted to rub it in your face. :p |

15:58.52 | |FF|Im2good4u | did any1 else realise uactionner uses a weird chat hyperlink system.. |
15:59.13 | |FF|Im2good4u | my addon and auctioneer keep beeying bugged :( |
15:59.17 | malreth | how do you mean? |
15:59.48 | |FF|Im2good4u | wel basicly when u clikc on a chat link auctionner wont dispaly the sub tooltip or displays the wrng item in the sub tooltip |
15:59.55 | malreth | ah |
16:00.09 | zenzelezz | I haven't seen that problem |
16:00.30 | malreth | haven't noticed it either... but i also don't let auctioneer run very often |
16:00.39 | Kirkburn | I'm running a test via ATI's site to see if I can run Vista - it says my gfx card can't run Vista at recommended settings. Strangely enough, my card is an nVidia card ... hmm |
16:00.40 | malreth | only on my AH mule, really |
16:01.29 | Kirkburn | It says only an X700 or better can run it, I have a 6800 which is better than an X700 afaik. Grr @ ATI |
16:01.35 | malreth | gotta change loc... agents have a track running on me... brb |
16:01.47 | |FF|Im2good4u | basicly auctioner check the left text of the tooltip whit current item if its different then it try's to build a new one.. |
16:01.55 | zenzelezz | what's so wrong about that Kirk? |
16:02.10 | zenzelezz | when nVidia can slap their stupid "The way it's meant to be played" sticker on anything |
16:02.11 | Kirkburn | ATI are effectively lying about my gfx card's abilities |
16:02.24 | Cide | Kirkburn: and you think the same wouldn't happen at nvidia.com? ;) |
16:02.40 | Kirkburn | Heh, but the difference is, nVidia haven't :P |
16:02.50 | Cide | so ATI sucks? :) |
16:03.02 | Kirkburn | hehe |
16:03.06 | zenzelezz | anyone who expectes an objective view from a vendor deserves nothing better |
16:03.11 | zenzelezz | *expects |

16:03.20 | Cide | I don't think he expected it, but yeah I agree otherwise |

16:05.38 | Kirkburn | What FPS do you get in WoW on that? |
16:05.44 | Industrial | wich is less then half of my minimum wage per month |
16:05.46 | Industrial | 64 |
16:05.59 | Industrial | so thats like a year of work's worth of money ;) |
16:06.04 | Kirkburn | Ah, V-synced |
16:06.10 | Industrial | yeah cant get it off |
16:06.15 | Industrial | turned it off on my card |
16:06.23 | zenzelezz | 64 with vsync? That's an odd refresh rate |
16:06.25 | Kirkburn | Really? It doesn't turn off? Weird |
16:06.39 | Industrial | dunno if wow controls vsync but its off on my nvidia settings |
16:06.45 | Kirkburn | zenzelezz, it's quite normal actually. No idea why though |
16:06.45 | zenzelezz | I don't see why everyone speaks of flashy videocards for WoW though... my 9800 runs it perfectly |
16:07.02 | Industrial | zenzelezz, I have all settings high :P |
16:07.11 | Kirkburn | Industrial, what drivers do you use? |
16:07.16 | zenzelezz | Kirkburn: I'll take your word for it, but my monitors always used 60-70-72-75 as options |
16:07.19 | zenzelezz | Industrial: so do I |
16:07.21 | Industrial | first time I ran it - not on my laptop - with this card I was like WOW i can see the otehr side of WSG |
16:07.36 | Kirkburn | zenzelezz, oh yes, it seems to choose 64 frequently despite that |
16:07.39 | Industrial | Kirkburn, lemme see |
16:08.31 | Kirkburn | zenzelezz, I've never actually found out why, but it might be some software or hardware limitations that makes it choose 64 all the time |
16:09.27 | Kirkburn | Industrial, just found out, the fix will be in 1.12.1 |
16:09.51 | Industrial | where do I see my nvidia driver version >_> |

16:12.29 | Kirkburn | If you have a Dual Core CPU and have vsync on, it crashes WoW atm |
16:12.39 | Kirkburn | Industrial, "Forceware Version" |
16:12.45 | Kirkburn | 84.21 you have |
16:12.48 | Industrial | oh k |
16:13.16 | Kirkburn | Not too old, but there are newer ones - I'm on 91.47 |
16:13.26 | Industrial | oh ill update |
16:13.27 | Industrial | :> |
16:13.35 | Kirkburn | Since you have such a new card, it will probably make quite a difference |
16:14.05 | Kirkburn | Industrial, I would suggest using ones from here personally: http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/ |
16:14.43 | Industrial | Hmm I never had much interest in versions and though that everything will be allright |
16:14.55 | Industrial | but now I have a high end system maybe I can try to get more out of it :o |
16:15.07 | Kirkburn | Since you'd be going form the 80 series to 90 series it should give you quite a boost |
16:15.51 | Kirkburn | I have to use that website because I have a laptop card (6800 Go) which isn't normally supported by nVidia |
16:15.57 | Industrial | whats this enhancer? |
16:16.16 | Industrial | I have a 5650go on my laptop |
16:16.17 | Kirkburn | Don't worry about that, just get 91.47 from the drivers section |

16:25.45 | tyroney | I use a laptop (not mine) that had it's battery replaced. Really a quick an painless process. No fires. |
16:26.03 | cogwheel | Mine wasn't in the recall so i'm not too worried |
16:26.06 | Beladona | I bet the new AMD <- ATI buyout will introduce some AMD chips with ATI acceleration intruction sets. Adding fuel to the fire that is "ATI vs Nvidia" |
16:26.15 | tyroney | Yikes. |
16:26.16 | |FF|Im2good4u | if u use hooking of a function .. like me then is there any way to know witch hook get called first ? when multiple addons hook it ? |
16:26.17 | malreth | i gotta go get mine replaced. my battery is on the recall list |
16:26.40 | Kirkburn | I don't think it will be possible for Intel to buy nVidia, but you never know ... |
16:26.47 | Beladona | not really FF, its whoever came first |
16:27.06 | cogwheel | I've always been an AMD fan and an nVidia fan... Now that Intel has better cpus and amd bought ati, i'm very confused |
16:27.17 | Kirkburn | cogwheel, hehe |
16:27.29 | tyroney | |FF|Im2good4u: You can add some kind of extra argument that only you send, that way you can tell if someone else is calling you. If that helps. Otherwise it's like Beladona said |
16:27.31 | Beladona | I have always been intel + nvidia, so I am good |
16:27.51 | Kirkburn | We're all nVidiots here :P |
16:28.06 | TS|Skrom | ati4lyfe |
16:28.09 | |FF|Im2good4u | so if addon a hooked it and then addon b, a get called first ? |
16:28.17 | tyroney | I remember my roomie with an nvidia back in the day, with all those built in fancy effects. |
16:28.26 | Beladona | |FF|Im2good4u: be aware that hooking may be harder after the expansion |

16:28.43 | |FF|Im2good4u | realy why ? |

16:28.56 | jaxdahl | i've been amd+nvidia for a long time |
16:29.06 | |FF|Im2good4u | that will break like 90% of the addons.. |

16:29.41 | Beladona | there will lieklybe a way to do it, but technically speaking they are preventing addons from "destroying" or otherwise "trashing" default functions |

16:30.11 | TS|Skrom | Absent-Minded Fairy |
16:30.26 | |FF|Im2good4u | oke well a simpel way is to laod addons in there own memory space :P but then u cant hook it /o\ |

16:32.18 | Beladona | without hooking a default function |
16:32.26 | JoshBorke | what about spellcasting? |
16:32.36 | |FF|Im2good4u | well in most cases u like only have to parse the data and not rewrite entire functions |
16:32.42 | |FF|Im2good4u | like addmessage for example |
16:32.49 | Beladona | well yeah, but I can see why they would want to rpevent you from hooking things that get fired in the engine |
16:33.05 | cogwheel | Beladona: I hook BuyMerchantItem when I'm testing BuyEmAll and BuyDropper so i don't actually buy anything. It would be devastating if that kind of thing were no longer possible |
16:33.09 | JoshBorke | there's no way to get target information without hooking SpellTargetUnit etc |
16:33.25 | JoshBorke | but I agree, aggressive hooking can be quite a bane |
16:33.31 | kergoth | wonder if we could get them to include newproxy |
16:33.34 | |FF|Im2good4u | i jknow the prob of hooking |
16:33.41 | kergoth | in 5.1 it becomes even more useful, since __len doesnt work on tables |

16:34.11 | JoshBorke | hooking your hooked functions is BAD |

16:34.59 | cogwheel | ~botslap |
16:35.07 | purl | OUCH! That hurt, cogwheel! |
16:35.09 | kergoth | itd be amusing if they flagged all of that as unhookable, but forgot to disable the ability to setfenv() 0 |

16:35.52 | malreth | gah, i always cry when people hook chatframe_onevent |
16:35.59 | |FF|Im2good4u | but wut if they just run every addon in its own memory space then u cant hook sh*t |
16:36.10 | Cide | malreth: why? |
16:36.10 | Beladona | there is a term they used |
16:36.13 | |FF|Im2good4u | malreth: why ? |
16:36.15 | Beladona | can't remember what it is, gah |
16:36.54 | Beladona | ahh, function tainting |
16:37.05 | zenzelezz | nice expression |
16:37.16 | |FF|Im2good4u | oke that sounds nice :p ofc no1 understnads it :p |
16:37.20 | TS|Skrom | that's what she called it last night anyway ^.^ |
16:37.33 | malreth | |FF|Im2good4u: usually, there's a better way to go about what you're trying to do or a different function that can be hooked to achieve the same effect |
16:38.13 | |FF|Im2good4u | well besaicly i wanted to modifiy the |H |h |h links :p but on the addmessage it kept overflowing :p |
16:38.16 | malreth | |FF|Im2good4u: plus, it gets called a lot so if your code isn't efficient, you can really bog down someone's framerate or generate a lot of garbage |
16:38.19 | kergoth | thats a good term for it. |
16:38.33 | |FF|Im2good4u | ofc my code is efficient :p |
16:39.11 | malreth | |FF|Im2good4u: if you get stack overflows, it means you did something wrong in your hook |
16:39.33 | malreth | usually it happens if you call the function that you hooked inside your hook |
16:39.41 | malreth | or something like that |
16:40.05 | |FF|Im2good4u | yes but u tryed to fix for a long time but it didnt help |

16:44.36 | TS|Skrom | it don't know me :p |
16:44.36 | Beladona | I think the discussion right now is how to allow you to do something after a function executes, without hooking |
16:44.48 | |FF|Im2good4u | oO so u got axxes to teh secret docs :p |
16:44.53 | malreth | as long as neither ItemLinkRecolor_Moneyrize nor ItemLinkRecolor_Colorize call ChatFrameN:AddMessage() you can do all of that in an AddMessage hook... but it works just as well in an OnEvent hook too |
16:44.58 | Beladona | my solution was to make protected functions fire an event like FUNCTION_EXECUTED or something, and pass the function name as an arg |
16:45.17 | Beladona | that way you can register for that event, and just fire your code afterwards |
16:45.30 | malreth | Beladona: sounds like Notifications from OS X Cocoa programming api |
16:45.35 | Beladona | right |
16:46.27 | |FF|Im2good4u | malreth: i didnt have any addmessage or any print it was pure moddifing the chat message but still it kept overflowning and i had no idea why. |
16:47.22 | |FF|Im2good4u | Beladona: the idea isnt bad but i can image there be a lot of FUNCTION_EXECUTD events and every addon would havetodo if arg1 == "myfunction" then |
16:50.00 | malreth | well, i'd hope they'd do something like where you call RegisterNotification(CastSpellByName, MyFunctionToBeCalled) |
16:50.17 | malreth | if you wanted to be notified on a CastSpellByName call |
16:51.17 | malreth | that way, your frame (or whatever notification watcher mechanism they set up) is notified only on the functions that you're interested in |
16:51.42 | malreth | with that being said, it'd be nice if we could have something more lightweight for event handling than an entire frame |
16:52.27 | sancus | ui in the expansion is.. kindof... unfinished.. lol |
16:52.52 | malreth | nearly every single addon has to have a hidden anonymous frame just to receive events... there's really no need for that |

16:57.49 | |FF|Im2good4u | malreth: wall u can ofc recieve them on your visable frame.. |
16:58.07 | malreth | what if i have no UI? |
16:58.52 | malreth | for instance in Ensemble, all it does is just auto-accepts group invites from friends and guildmates... no ui needed. I have to create a hidden frame to get the party_request events |
17:00.39 | malreth | it'd be nice if I could do a RegisterEvent("PARTY_INVITE_REQUEST", MyEventWatcherObject) and the game would call MyEventWatcherObject:PARTY_INVITE_REQUEST() automatically |
17:01.29 | malreth | and even better, it would send arg1-arg9 as actual function arguments instead of having to check global variables |
17:01.43 | |FF|Im2good4u | actualy if u only want to accepnt those invites then hook away :p |
17:02.00 | malreth | but i shouldn't have to hook. :) |
17:02.08 | |FF|Im2good4u | yeh indeed :p |
17:02.21 | malreth | an event is exactly the way this should be done from a design standpoint |
17:02.40 | malreth | a software design standpoint, that is |
17:03.54 | malreth | plus, hooks are fragile. granted, someone is probably not going to go and hook the same function or method that I do and screw things up... but it could happen and that means i'm inherently relying on something that is potentially unreliable |
17:04.32 | zenzelezz | someone will hook the same funcion(s), but people usually don't use conflicting mods |
17:04.40 | malreth | that... and it makes baby Dijkstra cry |

17:27.00 | TS|Skrom | jaxdahl *whistle* 15% crit to heals and 100% mana back on a crit |
17:27.04 | TS|Skrom | talk about longevity |
17:27.17 | TS|Skrom | sorry 17% |
17:27.29 | TS|Skrom | almost 18 hehe |
17:27.40 | Industrial | howmuch percent mana does 1 heal cost? =) |
17:28.05 | Industrial | thats like endless mana |
17:28.13 | Industrial | nukenukenukenuke |
17:28.35 | TS|Skrom | sorry... 100% of the COST of the heal back on a crit :p |
17:28.44 | Industrial | ah |
17:28.45 | Industrial | :p |
17:28.53 | Industrial | brb |
17:29.23 | jaxdahl | TS|Skrom |
17:29.24 | jaxdahl | uh |
17:29.28 | jaxdahl | more like 40% crit heals |
17:29.48 | TS|Skrom | Crit with spells 12.85 + 5% from the talent? |
17:29.50 | TS|Skrom | what did I miss? |
17:29.58 | jaxdahl | crit with spells 37.41% |
17:30.13 | TS|Skrom | oh lol |
17:30.13 | jaxdahl | are you looking at the spell crit sandbox profile? |
17:30.16 | TS|Skrom | I was lookinga t the main >< |
17:30.19 | TS|Skrom | newb <-- |
17:30.28 | jaxdahl | 32.41 + 5 talent |
17:30.34 | jaxdahl | +2.5% or so with AI+kings |
17:30.47 | tyroney | That's kinda scary. I mean, gosh. |
17:31.04 | jaxdahl | i went for the best +crit and +int |
17:31.07 | TS|Skrom | even more longevity! |
17:31.11 | jaxdahl | for example, check the robes |
17:31.15 | jaxdahl | 2% crit, +15 int |
17:31.28 | jaxdahl | obviously redemption tunic is a m uch better item overall |
17:31.32 | jaxdahl | 1% crit +31 int |
17:31.40 | jaxdahl | but 16 int doesn't match 1% crit |
17:31.46 | jaxdahl | it's more like 29.5 int or so |
17:32.05 | jaxdahl | and for added bonus |
17:32.12 | jaxdahl | moonkin in your group |
17:32.15 | jaxdahl | for 43% crit |
17:32.16 | jaxdahl | hot |
17:32.29 | jaxdahl | my current paladin has 22% or so crit |
17:32.31 | TS|Skrom | muh..moo...moonkin? |

19:02.22 | Industrial | :s |
19:02.27 | Beladona | http://www.100fps.com/how_many_frames_can_humans_see.htm |
19:02.31 | Beladona | read that |
19:02.42 | Beladona | all the info you need on human eye recognition of fps |
19:02.53 | Industrial | "No wonder because Tom Wieland has gained the reputation of an expert for this region and especially Hungary where he goes several times a year both to play and to chase rare records." |
19:02.55 | Industrial | oooookey |
19:04.38 | Beladona | a perfect example of the fps issue is a game called Star Wars Battlefront. It uses movie slight blurring effects, which actually hides a lot of jaggies and fps slowdowns, because your eye doesn't pick up the stutter at all. its an extremely effective technique |
19:04.53 | Kirkburn | Beladona, thanks for that link |
19:05.01 | Beladona | thats why computer games tend to show fps changes so much, due to sharpness |
19:05.20 | Kirkburn | My comment was far too general |
19:05.59 | TS|Skrom | what part of "lots of ketchup" mysteriously sounds like "four packets of ketchup" to the drive thru lady? |

19:13.26 | Beladona | here is a perfect example |
19:13.29 | Beladona | The next time you are in the cinema do the following: Look up to the ceiling while the movie is playing. Especially during bright/white scenes you will clearly notice that the movie flickers. |
19:14.02 | Beladona | the sides of your vision are more sensitive to brightness and flickering |
19:15.58 | Kirkburn | Ooh, I'd better try that out |
19:16.12 | Kirkburn | Check this illusion out: http://www.michaelbach.de/ot/col_equilu/index.html |
19:16.26 | Kirkburn | See if you can make it switch directions in your mind |
19:16.28 | malreth | i have trouble watching DLPs because of the color flickering |
19:17.49 | Kirkburn | (if you have flickering problems with that illusion press up or down to change the background) |
19:18.01 | Kirkburn | malreth, sounds like you need better DLPs :P |
19:18.30 | Beladona | it depends on the angle too |
19:18.43 | Beladona | may ened to reposition the tv slightly |
19:18.48 | Beladona | need* |
19:18.53 | cogwheel | malreth: they make 3-chip DLPs as well as single-chip ones with faster color wheels (mine spins at 3x speed plus has red, green, blue, yellow and white for better color & brightness) |
19:19.07 | malreth | hmm... interesting |
19:19.30 | Beladona | was just looking at one last night from Samsung. can't remember the model |
19:19.34 | malreth | well, i have a direct-view tv at home anyways... it's old and cheap and i like it just fine |
19:19.46 | Beladona | no flicker that I can tell, and sharpest, best color repro of any DLP I have seen |

19:43.31 | KevICG | if I may ask, I'm a bit noobish on the whole addon creation thingy, is somebody here willing to take a few minutes to answer some basic questions on messaging? |
19:44.43 | malreth | Greetings, citizen. What's your boggle? |
19:45.18 | zenzelezz | what he means is ask in the channel and you'll have a better chance of getting an answer |
19:45.40 | JoshBorke | i thought he was talking about a game called boggle... |
19:45.43 | JoshBorke | way to dash my hopes :-( |
19:45.44 | KevICG | I'm just curious, I'm working on a design for an addon that can have some potential deadlock conditions, I'm wondering how well messaging works as people zone and do various other activities which consume lots of processing |
19:46.00 | JoshBorke | events are que'ed while zoning |
19:46.22 | KevICG | so you never lose them completely :) wee, one fear conquered |
19:46.23 | JoshBorke | well, not really. the best bet is to disable while zoning and re-enable after zoning |
19:46.37 | JoshBorke | you'll still get tells while zoning |
19:46.47 | JoshBorke | but i don't think you can send them until you finish zoning |
19:47.00 | KevICG | fair enough, this isn't something that needs to occur in realtime |
19:47.31 | KevICG | just trying to figure out some syncronization issues and various instances of my addon becoming out of date |
19:47.48 | JoshBorke | what are you doing? if i may be curious |
19:48.06 | KevICG | working on something that does some scheduling of events. Like GEM but without all the spam |
19:49.13 | KevICG | I've got a system that can easily validate snapshots of the events scheduled, but my problem is how I go about updating when folks may be zoning, crashing etc while I'm trying to syncronize |
19:49.25 | JoshBorke | cool :-) |
19:50.06 | KevICG | heh, not cool yet, just working on a rough draft of it |
19:50.48 | JoshBorke | it's an interesting problem :-) there's an Ace addon called Combine being written by Kaelten, you should check it out. |
19:50.59 | KevICG | I shall |
19:51.07 | JoshBorke | one sec |
19:51.09 | Maldivia | hmm, priest spells and tanlents are up |
19:51.22 | JoshBorke | http://www.wowace.com/forums/index.php/topic,1828.0.html |
19:51.22 | KevICG | wewt, about time |
19:51.33 | JoshBorke | SW: Death seems interesting |
19:51.39 | JoshBorke | and i'm super stoaked about the new holy spells |
19:52.16 | JoshBorke | Prayer of Mending |
19:52.50 | Cide | SW: Death seems really crappy, but PoM seems nice |
19:53.26 | Maldivia | Reactive Shield talent (disc 30) is very interesting |
19:53.35 | Kirkburn1 | zomg, death is crappy? |
19:53.37 | Maldivia | and improved divine spirit |
19:53.53 | Kirkburn1 | There was me thinking "woo, Death" |
19:53.55 | Cide | very crappy damage/mana ratio |
19:54.04 | Cide | and it deals damage to you if it doesn't die |
19:54.08 | Maldivia | hmm. improved shadow weaving - interesting |

19:54.59 | Maldivia | mending is such an EQ reactive healing rip off :) |

19:56.25 | JoshBorke | yea, shadow doesn't seem to get much |
19:56.30 | JoshBorke | and Mass Dispel just seems lame |
19:57.26 | KevICG | josh: the combine looks interesting, but seems about as advanced as we are at the moment. They're still talking sync channels though, we're planning on running MD5 checksums on individual events and a master checksum on the event list, syncing will be a simple matter of checking the checksums against the list. |
19:58.45 | JoshBorke | i'd say try to work with him and see if you can come up with anything. i know he's been really busy with the ace stuff lately so he hasn't worked on it much |
19:58.53 | JoshBorke | why not a simpler crc checksum? |
19:59.15 | KevICG | it's not out of the question |
19:59.24 | JoshBorke | just cuts down on data and processing time |
19:59.36 | KevICG | true, although checksums aren't difficult to compute |
19:59.41 | KevICG | either way :) |
19:59.45 | JoshBorke | true :-) |
20:00.31 | JoshBorke | hm, so will you have timestamps or something inside the data format to determine who has the most accurate information? |
20:01.19 | KevICG | heh, well things get... interesting.. (in the Chinese curse meaning) there. accuracy is impossible, we'll just have to have some rules for who gets bumped when |
20:01.44 | KevICG | but yes, timestamps |
20:02.13 | KevICG | the lack of data store kills the ability to be truly accurate |
20:04.27 | KevICG | I guess the central idea is that after somebody logs in, they syncronize if needed (which with checksums of some variety will be relatively simple) and then everybody online is at the same state until somebody else logs in or somebody modifies an event. |
20:05.31 | JoshBorke | are you going to tie the information changes to the guild authority? ie someone who is an 'initiate' can't go changing things but the GM can? |
20:05.58 | KevICG | default options will be of that variety, GL will be able to grant permission to various ranks |
20:06.19 | KevICG | we'd like it to be nicely configurable |
20:07.16 | KevICG | the part that's killing me mentally, is that when you want to sync events, you have to put a temporary lock on folks trying to sync. I'm just wondering how I'm going to work the timeouts for cases when somebody starts a sync, then crashes. |
20:11.03 | JoshBorke | hm |
20:11.09 | JoshBorke | but shouldn't more than one person be able to sync? |
20:11.20 | KevICG | sure, just not at the same time :) |
20:11.43 | JoshBorke | as long as the events are distinct they could, couldn't they? |
20:12.05 | KevICG | they could, but there's no guarantee that they would be distinct events |
20:12.12 | Kirkburn1 | Wow, I'm sitting here slack-jawed at the BC races dances |
20:12.17 | Kirkburn1 | They're amazing! |
20:12.24 | KevICG | there's a very real possibility they may be both on the same event |
20:12.25 | Kirkburn1 | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AH55ThivSAQ |
20:12.51 | KevICG | My webmonkey is going to drool on phpRaid, I don't think he knew that existed |
20:13.00 | JoshBorke | KevICG: as long as only one person talks and announces what event they are broadcasting and when they are don |
20:13.05 | JoshBorke | s/don$/done/ |
20:14.39 | yacoob | Kirkburn1: noooo! |
20:14.43 | yacoob | Kirkburn1: it's all wrong!!! |
20:14.51 | yacoob | Kirkburn1: the male draenei dance is NOT this song! |
20:15.14 | Kirkburn | Yeah, he obviously didn't know which song it came from :( |
20:15.15 | yacoob | it's THIS one! http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1602696831935447819&q=daler+mehndi |

20:15.55 | KevICG | josh: thinking about it, bear with me, too little sleep, not enough caffeine |
20:16.07 | yacoob | exactly :D |
20:16.22 | JoshBorke | KevICG: np, i'm not very good at this stuff :-) just trying to help you out :-) |
20:17.14 | KevICG | no worries, you bring up a valid point, I'm trying to determine if my method had any innate advantage |
20:17.35 | KevICG | avoiding locking states is a good thing |
20:19.56 | KevICG | actually I think your idea is the better one. I'd go to great lengths to avoid trying to lock updates |
20:21.36 | KevICG | another question on a vaguely related theme. Do you know if anybody has a substitute/modification for uniuploader that will upload and download saved variable data during the login/logoff process? |
20:22.54 | Shadowed | That'd be impossible without having some sort of 3rd party programming check, which i believe is against one of those big legal thingys |
20:23.12 | KevICG | I don't want to modify it during gameplay |
20:23.34 | KevICG | just prior to login and after closing out wow |
20:24.43 | Shadowed | Not sure how far the modifying stuff extends, someone else would have to confirm. But I don't think checking when the client is opened/close is allowed |
20:25.20 | malreth | it's fine |
20:25.24 | malreth | relax |
20:25.49 | KevICG | I'm more thinking like the way Uni does it. It checks for updates prior to starting wow, starts wow, when it closes it can optionally update roster data |
20:26.23 | KevICG | I'm just looking for something a little more configurable |
20:26.34 | KevICG | and I'd rather not have to learn C# |
20:28.10 | KevICG | ideally we want to load the data from our server, update the saved variable data with any web scheduled/modified events, and when the person logs out, upload the data back to the server so we can sync it with our online schedule |

20:47.03 | cogwheel | hmm... at 8 seconds with 5 min cooldown, i don't know if i'd really call shades of darkness a "pet".... |
20:47.28 | cogwheel | it looks like it would have the same effect on combat as a DOT |

20:47.48 | JoshBorke | yea, but variable attacks means it disrupts casting time |
20:49.00 | cogwheel | malreth: i don't really think so... it says "to attakc the enemy target" which is very different than "to fight for the caster" |

21:05.53 | Codayus | Mending....yeah, I guess. |
21:06.24 | Codayus | But I'm totally not seeing the point of the new 41 point talents. |
21:06.49 | cogwheel | I think part of the problem is that they did such a good job with the last priest overhaul that the changes aren't as spectacular as they are for other classes |
21:06.49 | Codayus | Or a clearcasting smite talent thingie in holy? ....eah. |
21:06.58 | Codayus | that's true... :-) |
21:07.39 | Codayus | I did think lightwell could stand being fixed. or holy could get a 41 point talent that was compelling... |

22:06.37 | Qzot | Targeting counts as a hardware event, tho. |
22:06.52 | Qzot | That is, clicking with the mouse. |
22:07.56 | cogwheel | Would TargetNearestFriend() target prairie dogs? |

22:10.15 | tyroney | Right. That's why I was thinking I'd do that. |
22:10.18 | tyroney | Just how simple? |
22:11.14 | Qzot | Create a frame, set on OnUpdate script for the frame which checks UnitName('mouseover'), and if so, does a TargetWhateverTheAPINameIsReallyCalled('mouseover') |
22:11.46 | tyroney | TargetUnit("mouseover") |
22:12.00 | Qzot | Yeah. That one. |
22:12.08 | tyroney | but every update? That sounds so... un-elegant. |
22:12.36 | tyroney | I suppose if I were activating it it wouldn't be too painful for my sensibilities. |
22:12.39 | Qzot | If you have space in the macro, don't call TargetUnit if UnitExists('target'), so you avoid rapid-fire target. |
22:12.48 | Kirov | erm |
22:13.06 | tyroney | Good thought. |
22:13.16 | tyroney | And there's always room in a macro. Well, almost. |

22:13.56 | Qzot | Perfectly reasonable option. |
22:14.08 | Qzot | But might take more space, mebbe? |
22:14.11 | Kirov | By reasonable you mean not dumb! |

22:15.36 | tyroney | Hmm... I think I'll make a skull. Click it, and it lights up. Mouseover a critter, and the eyes glow red. Click it while glowing, and BLAM! |
22:15.53 | Qzot | Let's just say ... I see enough flakiness with WoW events, that too often I just trigger stuff off OnUpdate and try to prune brutally how much code gets run in the standard case. Bad habit, but there are reasons. |
22:17.06 | tyroney | Interesting. |
22:18.04 | Kirov | <PROTECTED> |
22:18.53 | Kirov | Problem is of course the names. |
22:19.48 | Kirov | And you probably want to add some sort of key modifier like if IsShiftKeyDown() and IsAltKeyDown() and AutoTargets[UnitName(m) or ""] then |
22:20.10 | Kirov | Of course, this might be easier |
22:20.23 | cogwheel | does AttackTarget() take an event? |
22:20.34 | Kirov | <PROTECTED> |
22:20.34 | Kirov | <PROTECTED> |
22:20.51 | cogwheel | s/take an/require a hardware/ |
22:21.00 | Kirov | Yes |
22:21.30 | tyroney | and a UnitCanAttack("player","mouseover") to let the name list be a little more generic. |
22:22.02 | Kirov | <PROTECTED> |
22:22.26 | Kirov | hmm |
22:22.34 | Kirov | you'd have to see if the target is yellow first too |
22:22.37 | tyroney | wait, so you'd have to hover over something? |
22:22.40 | Kirov | though, I can see that being bad |
22:22.56 | Qzot | Kirov: TargetByName sucks when there are possible corpses about. |
22:22.58 | JoshBorke | lol |
22:22.59 | jaxdahl | is it desirable to have all epics from naxxramas added to the wiki? |
22:23.20 | jaxdahl | maul of the redeemed crusader, death's bargain aren't on the wiki for example |
22:23.25 | tyroney | Oh, and a UnitCreatureType("mouseover")=="critter" while we're at it. |
22:24.07 | Qzot | Hmm. This is giving me an idea. |
22:24.25 | cogwheel | ARGHAGARGRHARGARHARGRGRHRH |
22:24.26 | Qzot | As a tanking durid, it would be nice to auto-target critters when in bear form and out of combat. |
22:24.41 | cogwheel | <PROTECTED> |
22:24.45 | Qzot | cogwheel: Please speak English. I hate using the murloc translator. |
22:25.00 | cogwheel | Man... i wish i could go all murloc on the forums right now... |
22:25.27 | jaxdahl | which? |
22:25.29 | Qzot | *sigh* I wish I could get my baby murloc moved from one toon to another. |

22:26.13 | cogwheel | jaxdahl: the wow forums. Constant "server is busy" messages that eat posts... I really think it was better when they just let the login server die. |
22:29.36 | jaxdahl | i think they failed to optimize for what would happen as the database got bigger and bigger |
22:29.40 | Qzot | cogwheel: oh, gawd. |
22:29.45 | jaxdahl | they should've done an import of the old forums and tested withthose |
22:30.28 | Qzot | cogwheel: Not to mention throwing the baby out with the both: There were times I was in a generous mood and would go through the UI forum handing out answers. Can't now. |

23:38.49 | Kirov | It's amazing how slow the wow forums are |
23:40.02 | Qzot | I'm sure they'll speed up over time, as the database gets fuller. |
23:40.52 | TS|Skrom | Oo |
23:41.28 | Qzot | Um. It's called "sarcasm". Some consider a kind of word play. |
23:42.53 | Kirkburn | Lowest form of wit :P |
23:42.59 | Gryphen | sarcasm in text is a bit ambiguous |
23:43.00 | *** part/#wowi-lounge JoshBorke (n=Josh@r35h14.res.gatech.edu) |
23:43.03 | Kirkburn | Amazingly popular with the British :P |
23:43.13 | Qzot | Gryphen: Very. |
23:44.43 | Qzot | Gryphen: Moreover, research shows that people think their own sarcasm is clear, and receivers think it's clear, even when both sender and receiver are guessing incorrectly (whether sarcasm or no) much of the time. (*pertains to email, but I'm assuming it applies to IRC, etc.) |
23:44.54 | Industrial | can anyone fill this in to 60? http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=rxMhoZZEMGuczot |
23:45.12 | Qzot | Kirkburn: The British just rose a notch in my estimation. |

23:47.22 | Qzot | pvp or raiding? |
23:47.40 | Industrial | pvp |
23:47.43 | Industrial | raiding sucks |
23:47.54 | Qzot | I'm not the one to ask then. |
23:47.57 | Industrial | unless theres good items I can use in pvp |
23:48.03 | Industrial | ;) |
23:48.16 | Qzot | I hate pvp. Not so much because it sucks, but because I suck. |
23:48.17 | Kirkburn | Awesome, I just got a Vista RC1 key even though they're not supposed to be available yet :D |
