01:33.18 | Mike-N-Go | How does the copying work? |
01:33.46 | Tain | Through the Blizzard web site. You can select your characters through a drop down when you're logged in. |

03:51.51 | Cairenn | *nod* |
03:52.16 | [Wobin] | ta =) |
03:52.47 | Cairenn | (since they have standardized it) it's always 00.00.00 (main, major, minor) |
03:54.40 | jaxdahl | not uhh |
03:54.49 | jaxdahl | 200100? |
03:54.55 | jaxdahl | or 200200? |
03:55.08 | jaxdahl | er |
03:55.18 | jaxdahl | <@Cairenn> (since they have standardized it) it's always 00.00.00 (main, major, minor) |
03:55.26 | jaxdahl | 0.00.00 (main, major, minor) |
03:55.27 | Cide | they only update the toc if the changes made warrant it |
03:55.32 | Cairenn | sorry, yeah |
03:55.35 | jaxdahl | so 20200 for tbc |
03:55.38 | Cairenn | extra 0 in there |
03:55.39 | Cide | 20000 |
03:55.45 | Cairenn | nope, not 20200 |
03:55.49 | jaxdahl | hm ok |
03:55.56 | Cide | like I said, they only update the toc if the changes made warrant it |
03:56.01 | jaxdahl | ptr is 20000? |

04:15.18 | Grem | I need to create a 'grid' |
04:15.35 | Grem | A grid im guessing would be tons and tons of textures, or tons and tons of frames |
04:16.01 | Grem | I need to know if that could cause lag |
04:16.03 | Grem | Etc |
04:16.27 | blixem | Grem: what are you trying to do? |
04:16.32 | Grem | Make a big grid |
04:16.42 | blixem | where? |
04:16.46 | blixem | for what purpose? |
04:16.47 | Grem | On a frame |
04:16.52 | Grem | For my mod |
04:17.03 | Grem | So a grid, like 20x20, would have like 400 frames |
04:17.06 | Grem | Would that cause lag? |
04:17.27 | blixem | you need that many frames? or just a 'grid' look |
04:18.20 | Grem | I need a grid look |
04:18.24 | Grem | but the ability to color the grids |
04:18.36 | Grem | There's a tetris mod out there somewhere, I think that accomplishes a 'grid' with colored squares |
04:18.41 | Grem | I just need to know the best way to do it |
04:18.43 | Grem | frames or textures |
04:18.50 | Esamynn | you really only need textures for each "pixel" |
04:18.58 | Grem | Yeah |
04:18.59 | blixem | textures would be my guess, and |
04:19.01 | Esamynn | unless you want them to be clickable |
04:19.05 | blixem | yeah esa filled in the rest |
04:20.17 | [Wobin] | You could... um... look at Grid for inspiration =) |
04:20.22 | Grem | They need to be clickable, yeah |
04:20.24 | Grem | So I assume I need frames |
04:20.26 | Grem | with textures on top |
04:20.31 | Esamynn | yes, use frames then |
04:20.43 | Grem | How many frames with textures can I have before I start having performance issues? =) |
04:20.48 | Esamynn | or if you just need solid colours you could use the frames' backgrounds |
04:20.55 | Grem | Yeah |
04:21.07 | [Wobin] | W0tcher! |
04:21.12 | [Wobin] | >< |
04:21.16 | jaxdahl | Grem, my guess is tens of thousands |
04:21.28 | Esamynn | depends on teh computer, but yah |
04:22.02 | Esamynn | it takes fewer to cause issues if you are changing them constantly (as in many times a second) |
04:22.25 | Grem | Gotcha |
04:23.02 | Esamynn | frames by themselves aren't really a grain on the graphics engine because without a background or a texture they're invisible anyways |
04:23.09 | Esamynn | s/grain/drain/ |

05:21.31 | cladhaire | consumables |
05:21.57 | blixem | mmm 2 pots in one bag, 1 in another. poisons all in one bag, except for one |
05:22.17 | blixem | felcloth and neatherweave in seperate bags |
05:25.05 | [Wobin] | ah, I know why =\ |
05:25.14 | [Wobin] | PEriodicTable doesn't have any of the new itemids |
05:25.31 | [Wobin] | oh, and Blixem, it's treating all your bags as a single large bag |
05:25.45 | [Wobin] | that's why it appears to split them up |
05:26.00 | [Wobin] | I think Bagnon is tbc compatible |
05:26.06 | blixem | mmm, would make sense if they were close to each other |

05:27.13 | blixem | ugh |
05:27.15 | blixem | sorry |
05:27.19 | VoidRaider | Guys, is there any addon available for the BC that gives the GC status, memory, events information and loading time ? |
05:27.23 | blixem | http://img294.imageshack.us/my.php?image=wowscrnshot112506002526yv1.jpg |
05:27.50 | blixem | [Wobin]: that's after 'theworks' |
05:28.24 | ckknight | VoidRaider, PerformanceFu will give memory and cpu usage... |
05:28.31 | ckknight | not event information, though. |
05:28.40 | ckknight | that's easy to rig up, though |
05:28.45 | [Wobin] | blixem: hm, that's pretty much right |
05:28.52 | VoidRaider | Where can I get FuBar then mate ? |
05:29.06 | VoidRaider | I haven't installed it yet |
05:29.13 | [Wobin] | We just need to get more of the new itemIDs into PeriodicTable |
05:29.15 | ckknight | well, you'll need the TBC branch of PerformacneFu and such |
05:29.31 | VoidRaider | Can you redirect me ? :/ |
05:31.19 | blixem | [Wobin]: the elixir of greater agility and the other two pots are no where near each other, the id's change maybe? |

05:35.00 | ckknight | http://wowace.com/files/index.php?path=Ace2/ |
05:35.10 | ckknight | you _need_ the standalone Ace2 TBC addon |
05:35.25 | VoidRaider | oh ok :P |
05:35.26 | ckknight | it won't work quite right without it |
05:35.37 | VoidRaider | I'll get it then :) |
05:35.44 | ckknight | if you want all events to be printed to the console, here's a handy script: |
05:35.46 | ckknight | AceLibrary("AceEvent-2.0"):RegisterAllEvents(function(...) AceLibrary("AceConsole-2.0"):PrintComma(AceLibrary("AceEvent-2.0").currentEvent, ...) end) |
05:36.09 | VoidRaider | ahh great :) |
05:36.24 | ckknight | :-) |
05:36.32 | VoidRaider | Thanks :) |
05:36.35 | ckknight | AceLibrary("AceEvent-2.0"):RegisterAllEvents(function(...) AceLibrary("AceConsole-2.0"):PrintComma(GetTime(), AceLibrary("AceEvent-2.0").currentEvent, ...) end) |
05:36.39 | ckknight | that may suit you better |
05:36.43 | ckknight | (added GetTime()) |
05:37.19 | VoidRaider | yeah I have a function I built for it though already, I just thought there's one addon that do it all :P |
05:38.52 | [Wobin] | hm |
05:39.00 | [Wobin] | any good tbc addon that can show the itemid? |
05:39.11 | ckknight | can't TinyTip? |
05:39.16 | [Wobin] | I'll check |
05:41.47 | VoidRaider | There's more Ace frameworks then Java frameworks haha which one you said again standalone Ace2 TBC addon ? where is it lol |

05:44.03 | Kirkburn | (this is the list of most Ace addons - http://wowace.com/files/index.php) |
05:46.19 | ckknight | anybody know some good techno/trance music that I might like? |
05:47.42 | VoidRaider | Yeah I know, the thing is that there is so much of them there I'm getting lost, I think that they should add a comment field next to each file, it will be handy :) |
05:48.11 | ckknight | VoidRaider, well, what're you looking for? |
05:48.21 | VoidRaider | ah I already got it mate :) |
05:48.39 | VoidRaider | kirk helped me :P |

05:53.43 | Thunder_Child | and theres always Happy Hardcore |
05:53.54 | VoidRaider | :P |
05:54.12 | VoidRaider | Well I don't care as long as it's music, I love music :) |
05:54.18 | Thunder_Child | opera |
05:54.31 | VoidRaider | I hear everything :P |
05:54.44 | Thunder_Child | better man tna i am then, i cant |
05:54.52 | Thunder_Child | then* |
05:55.06 | Thunder_Child | ....er....bad english |
05:55.34 | ckknight | I typically like mellow music or techno |
05:55.39 | VoidRaider | Well there is one style I hate :P |
05:55.45 | Thunder_Child | Enya FTW! |
05:55.50 | VoidRaider | haha :P |
05:55.57 | ckknight | not really Enya |
05:56.07 | zenzelezz | the thing I hate about music is that I'm utterly horrible with genres |
05:56.22 | ckknight | more like um... Iron & Wine |
05:57.00 | Thunder_Child | never heard of them |
05:57.21 | VoidRaider | I hate oriental music I think it's unique to israel :) |
05:57.23 | ckknight | oh, I love them |
05:57.51 | ckknight | it's like super-mellow |
05:58.45 | VoidRaider | all it does is making you pretty much depressed lol |
05:59.09 | blixem | Anyone used Trinity Buttons |
05:59.38 | VoidRaider | Anyway israel sucks :P |
05:59.51 | Cairenn | EXCUSE me? |
06:00.11 | VoidRaider | I'm from israel thats my opinion haha |
06:00.21 | ckknight | VoidRaider, doesn't make me depressed, the songs are happy |
06:00.36 | ckknight | like, about having sex with a black chick, that's a nice, happy song |
06:00.40 | ckknight | despite it being really mellow |
06:00.53 | VoidRaider | haha :) |
06:00.54 | zenzelezz | on the other hand, I like "depressing" music... somehow they cheer me up |
06:01.22 | ckknight | you know what's depressing? watch 2 seasons of Law & Order: SVU in a row. |
06:01.32 | VoidRaider | :P |
06:02.14 | VoidRaider | ckknight the song I gave you isn't depressing I meant to oriental music :P |
06:02.38 | Thunder_Child | is there a mod that keeps track of who you heal and how much? |
06:03.40 | VoidRaider | BTW what do you think about IE7 ? |
06:03.54 | Thunder_Child | tabs nice...lag bad |
06:04.06 | zenzelezz | a step in the nice direction, but still no Firefox/Opera |
06:04.44 | VoidRaider | after 18 months of development they fixed few loopholes and add these tabs shame imo |
06:05.21 | VoidRaider | 5 years with the same engine of IE4 haha :P |
06:05.39 | VoidRaider | Firefox rocks |
06:05.50 | zenzelezz | the trouble is the under-the-hood work, which is hard to spot without the code |
06:06.07 | zenzelezz | now don't get me wrong, I'm no IE fan, but they are improving ;) |
06:06.47 | VoidRaider | yeah well, I was an IE fan but I stopped last year :) |
06:07.46 | ckknight | IE7 was creepily laggy |
06:08.45 | Thunder_Child | yea :( |
06:08.47 | VoidRaider | As well as it fits XHTML 1.0 and 1.1 perfectly in the other hand IE6 and IE7 can be quite painful to work with :( |
06:11.14 | VoidRaider | IE7 has some security features that functions only under vista, I mean what the heck ... :// |

06:30.58 | Thunder_Child | i think you have to open them up and code them |
06:31.12 | Thunder_Child | but ther are already qute a few that are for them |
06:31.19 | Thunder_Child | for it* |
06:31.52 | VoidRaider | what do you meean mate ? :D |
06:32.14 | VoidRaider | I mean my own addons sure I'll have to open them up haha |
06:32.39 | VoidRaider | Whats the API to plug it ? :) |
06:32.52 | VoidRaider | or it uses tables ? |
06:33.04 | Thunder_Child | well take a look at 2 of the ones that are mad for them, compare the code and use the common denomonator |
06:33.16 | VoidRaider | yup I'll do that |
06:33.17 | Thunder_Child | made* |

06:34.36 | Kirkburn | Cop out :P |
06:34.48 | Cairenn | how so? it's a starting point |
06:34.54 | Thunder_Child | ...joke... |
06:34.55 | Cairenn | doesn't mean you have to use it |
06:35.01 | VoidRaider | Thanks Cairenn :) |
06:35.28 | Kirkburn | Reminds me, at some point I should have a look at that and see if I can comprehend it and learn something :) |

06:36.35 | Thunder_Child | informative list of things http://www.worldofraids.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=730 |
06:36.51 | Kirkburn | VoidRaider, the reason why some of the security features of IE7 only work under is because that's the only place they *can* |
06:37.09 | Kirkburn | Unless you would have preferred them to take another 6 months to recode XP, of course :) |
06:37.24 | VoidRaider | Yeah I knew that :) |
06:37.28 | Kirkburn | oops, missed out the word Vista :P |

06:43.20 | VoidRaider | I understand the fact it's a whole new design and such, I heard on a new file allocation table that's unqiue to Vista, I don't know I'm pissed because I'm working in their environment and it's so expensive :( |
06:43.54 | Neuro_Medivh | I just don't like that Vista's primary upgrade involves Digital Rights Management |
06:44.09 | Kirkburn | Lol, just thinking, on PvP servers HFP is going to be crazy for the first week |
06:44.23 | Neuro_Medivh | first month |
06:44.29 | Neuro_Medivh | actually |
06:44.31 | Kirkburn | Year =) |
06:44.37 | Neuro_Medivh | I see it being crazy till next expansion |
06:44.50 | Neuro_Medivh | STV on crack |
06:44.52 | Kirkburn | Vista's primary upgrade is DRM? What on earth are you talking about? |
06:45.29 | Kirkburn | (No new FAT either) |
06:45.37 | VoidRaider | ah are you sure ? |
06:45.54 | Kirkburn | Well, it still runs on NTFS, yes |
06:48.13 | Neuro_Medivh | Kirkburn, can't find the article I saw about it, but it stated that the primary purpose of Vista was to improve security and improve DRM |
06:48.43 | VoidRaider | Yeah they built the Security sytem before they worked on the core of it |
06:48.44 | Neuro_Medivh | and MS doesn't have a great track record involving security |
06:49.02 | Kirkburn | Uh, yeah, wouldn't that be why they were improving it? |
06:49.27 | Neuro_Medivh | Every new system has been an "improvement" |
06:49.41 | Kirkburn | "Yeah they built the Security sytem before they worked on the core of it" <-- source? |
06:49.47 | VoidRaider | I think it mislead me to think they created a new file system a more secured one however NTFS does is job well :) |
06:49.56 | VoidRaider | One sec |
06:50.19 | Neuro_Medivh | Vista isn't built from the Singularity code, I'm sure |
06:50.31 | Neuro_Medivh | I think it's called Singularity |
06:50.32 | Kirkburn | The entire Vista project was restarted in 2004 |
06:51.17 | Neuro_Medivh | there's a special project at MS builting a 100% secure OS, using C# I think |
06:51.53 | Kirkburn | Sounds cool |
06:52.05 | Neuro_Medivh | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singularity_%28operating_system%29 |
06:54.01 | Neuro_Medivh | Whoops, I'm wrong.. when they mean secure, they are talking about cross-app contamination and crashing |
06:56.41 | Kirkburn | Well if anyone thinks that Vista 'isn't much different to XP' - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Features_new_to_Windows_Vista |
06:57.24 | zenzelezz | I'd rather have an MS link; but the OSes are of course different enough |
06:58.25 | Kirkburn | Would an MS link be more trustworthy? |
06:58.33 | zenzelezz | in my opinion, yes |
06:59.15 | Kirkburn | Not sure what's out there |
06:59.26 | Corr[home] | note the addition of several built-in DRM features |
06:59.31 | Kirkburn | Though not actually by MS, http://www.winsupersite.com/ is kinda close |
06:59.58 | Kirkburn | Corr[home], hasn't stopped me playing any of my music collection |

07:01.13 | Kirkburn | I'm not a fan of it anyway, it'll likely only cause more people to get copies off the internet that aren't affected :/ |
07:01.49 | Kirkburn | The DRM section of that article is tiny compared to everything else, at least |
07:02.32 | Tem | As I understand it, Vista will force you to use DRM when you rip a CD |
07:03.18 | zenzelezz | I really don't understand what "activity percentile (last week)" means on SourceForge... projects that haven't seen activity in 4 years still get 80+ scores |
07:03.37 | Kirkburn | Tem, not that I've heard |
07:03.56 | Tem | ah, ok |
07:03.59 | Kirkburn | Nope, it doesn;t :) |
07:04.17 | Kirkburn | Just checked my copy on WMP11, you can untick 'Copy protect music' :) |
07:06.16 | Corr[home] | trying to make these charts with openoffice appears to be hopeless. it just doesn't have enough control. |
07:06.56 | Corr[home] | i'll have to hope i can convert this paper to a Word document later without screwing it up too much so i can pop in some decent charts. |
07:07.42 | Kirkburn | One I've been seriously impressed with is Office 2007 |
07:07.47 | Kirkburn | *one thing |
07:08.46 | Kirkburn | They're licensing out the UI style for free (but obviously with the restriction that whatever uses it cannot compete with Word Excel or Powerpoint .... anything else goes) |
07:09.30 | Kirkburn | It'll be really cool if other apps start taking up the ribbon, it's excellent :) |
07:10.06 | Corr[home] | did they try to restrict the "office style" before? |
07:11.57 | Kirkburn | What do you mean? There was no office style before, tbh, it was just standard windows toolbars |

07:13.21 | VoidRaider | well it seems that Symantec found some holes in the kernel of Vista haha |
07:13.34 | VoidRaider | http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,2001381,00.asp |
07:13.36 | Kirkburn | Symantec forced holes to be created |
07:13.53 | Corr[home] | eh? i distinctly remember that the later versions of office had an interesting style of its dropdown menus and such |
07:13.58 | Kirkburn | Oh well done, link to an article from AUGUST when Vista was in beta |
07:14.37 | Kirkburn | Corr[home], the odd way they cut out options you didn't use? That was god-awful, and the team fortunately realised that quickly :P |
07:14.38 | VoidRaider | Still I believe there is nothing prevents a cracker to posion the kernel |
07:14.45 | VoidRaider | poison* |
07:15.13 | Corr[home] | i refer rather to the visual style of the... "menus", that's what i meant, not dropdown anything |
07:15.17 | Corr[home] | context menus and toolbar menus |
07:15.38 | VoidRaider | It doesn't matter, if something is accusable in one way it can be exploitable somehow |
07:15.45 | Kirkburn | Corr[home], afaik there were no restrictions before |
07:15.47 | Corr[home] | in application designers and theme choosers for programs, it was referred to as the "office style" |
07:15.52 | VoidRaider | accusable* |
07:16.03 | zenzelezz | Corr[home]: wasn't that just "flat" menus,? |
07:16.08 | Corr[home] | could be |
07:16.12 | VoidRaider | bah |
07:16.23 | Corr[home] | as far as i can tell, all my menus are flat, though |
07:16.24 | VoidRaider | accessible* |
07:16.45 | Kirkburn | VoidRaider, MS wanted to lock down the kernel completely, but companies like Symantec forced them to provide ways of access |
07:17.19 | Industrial | Does anyone play on US/Dethecus? |
07:17.20 | Kirkburn | Don't go blaming MS for anti-virus' companies incompetence and profiteering |
07:18.15 | VoidRaider | So you believe the kernel can actually be locked permanently ? |
07:18.27 | Corr[home] | symantec "forced" them? |
07:22.20 | VoidRaider | kirk do you buy your Anti-Virus or your OS ? |
07:23.14 | Kirkburn | I buy my OS and get my anti-virus from the Uni |
07:23.32 | Thunder_Child | while the ability for symantec to access the kernal means that viruses cant shut it down, it also means that Icant shut it down |
07:23.33 | Kirkburn | (so a business style version, not an overloaded consumer version) |
07:23.49 | Kirkburn | Corr[home], yes, via the threat of lawsuits |
07:23.49 | VoidRaider | oh :) |
07:24.42 | Kirkburn | Corr[home], , http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Development_of_Windows_Vista#RC2 |
07:26.11 | Kirkburn | Strangely enough, not all anti-virus companies had a problem with it |
07:26.23 | Corr[home] | i don't suppose they're opening it up to visual styles without cracking a dll first, or buying StyleVista or whatever stardock produces? |
07:26.30 | Kirkburn | Windowblinds |
07:26.47 | Corr[home] | is that an answer to the question? |
07:27.06 | Kirkburn | Well it was an answer to the last part :P |
07:27.12 | Kirkburn | Not sure on the first part |
07:27.16 | VoidRaider | exactly, you can't just lock it without getting any access to it, there must be always a bridge between the none safe and safe blocks |
07:27.27 | Corr[home] | oh, yeah. thanks |
07:28.20 | w00tz | hey if i had a TargetUnit("mouseover"); how can I return the target's name? |
07:28.21 | Corr[home] | individual shadow folders sounds useful |
07:28.51 | Kirkburn | I can't find articles about Vista themes that aren't about making XP look like Vista :/ |
07:29.25 | VoidRaider | :P |
07:29.30 | ckknight | UnitName("target") |
07:29.42 | Corr[home] | "The address bar has been modified to present a breadcrumbs view, which shows the entire path to the current location. Clicking any location in the path hierarchy will take the user to that level and allows re-navigation from there, instead of repeatedly pressing the Back button." sounds oddly like you can't edit the bar like text any more? |
07:30.02 | w00tz | yep thanks ckknight just figurdi tout :P |

07:32.15 | Corr[home] | stacks, don't care; metadata, don't care; "Windows Vista will feature a search engine that uses indexing to allow for instant display of results for a given search" (weren't we already SUPPOSED to have this in XP?), sounds fun |
07:32.27 | Kirkburn | heh |
07:32.40 | Kirkburn | It's faster, but they've also made it so you can save searches |
07:32.54 | Kirkburn | Vista keeps those saves searches up to date, too |
07:32.56 | Tem | Kirkburn, I miss the up button |
07:33.06 | Kirkburn | It's odd without it, isn't it |

07:33.20 | Tem | I'm sure I'll get used to it eventually |
07:33.31 | Tem | but for the moment, not having it bothers me |
07:33.35 | Corr[home] | this article could use a little editing for clarity |

07:40.32 | VoidRaider | true :P |
07:40.56 | zenzelezz | I remember how the Microsoft Network was a great success back in Win95 :-p |
07:41.13 | Kirkburn | No Windows Messenger in Vista btw |
07:41.20 | VoidRaider | ah ? |
07:41.26 | VoidRaider | what do you mean haha |
07:41.27 | Corr[home] | "Windows Vista also includes a p2p messenger" |
07:41.33 | VoidRaider | oh |

07:41.54 | Corr[home] | that's the last sentence in the meeting space line |
07:42.13 | Kirkburn | Uh well it certainly doesn't have messenger, so it must be something else |
07:42.26 | Corr[home] | i note that they'll probably manage to lock down updates and addon software enough that, if i want to use Vista, i'll have to pay for all four copies of it |

07:43.33 | zenzelezz | how I miss the days of ICQ98 |
07:44.23 | Corr[home] | the difference here is that i've got several machines. there is a physical reason to have to buy separate pieces of hardware, but no physical reason to buy multiple copies of software. it's entirely metaphysical. |
07:44.30 | zenzelezz | I don't recall my dad's mobile phone number, but I do remember my ICQ UIN, which I haven't used for years upon years |
07:44.32 | Kirkburn | MS' formats are very much open for everyone to use these days (though not open source) |
07:44.58 | Corr[home] | it's obvious enough that microsoft would never use someone else's format for something. they'll make a new one and graciously let everyone else use it. |
07:44.58 | VoidRaider | So one who buyinh Vista and wants to communicate with his friend, M$ indirectly forces his friend to buy it too lol |
07:45.11 | VoidRaider | buying* |
07:45.13 | Kirkburn | No, not in any way at all |
07:45.55 | Corr[home] | task manager is getting an upgrade to a halfway stab at process explorer |
07:45.58 | Kirkburn | Corr[home], that is true to an extent, but that assumes the 'other' format was better in the first place |
07:46.11 | Kirkburn | Yup, task manager is much improved |
07:46.16 | Corr[home] | i never said anything about the quality. whether or not it's better, they wouldn't use it. |
07:47.03 | VoidRaider | Yeah they are self-centered lol |
07:47.07 | Kirkburn | That would be the same for most companies, but I know what you're saying |
07:47.29 | Kirkburn | It's called good business sense, even if not everyone likes it |
07:47.49 | Corr[home] | in some cases it's a great thing that a popular company forces disparate formats to dissipate in favor of one. |
07:47.52 | VoidRaider | yeah I call it self-centered and conquering |

07:48.19 | Kirkburn | IE is a format? |
07:48.25 | Kirkburn | Oh |
07:48.30 | Kirkburn | I see :P |
07:48.42 | VoidRaider | MSSQL ? |
07:48.45 | Corr[home] | well, on that subject, it pretty well was a format ; |

07:51.02 | Corr[home] | i just might -want- to be able to fuck with processes running on my own machine |
07:51.21 | VoidRaider | I believe that whenever you would want to delete a file, it will ask you 10 million times are you sure ? |
07:52.44 | Corr[home] | these security features make the OS sound like a car on which you can't open the hood. i -really- hope they aren't mandatory. |
07:53.01 | VoidRaider | haha |
07:53.41 | cladhaire | night all |
07:53.48 | VoidRaider | night :) |
07:54.35 | Kirkburn | Corr[home], it's really not that restrictive |
07:54.45 | VoidRaider | Vista gonna be a failure just like the millenium was and their IE7 :P |
07:54.48 | Kirkburn | VoidRaider, yeah it does ask a bit too much, but on for protected folders |
07:55.05 | Kirkburn | Doesn't affect User folders, for example |
07:55.05 | VoidRaider | j / k :) |
07:55.37 | VoidRaider | Hmm do you have to run it under NTFS ? |
07:56.02 | Kirkburn | Yes |
07:56.03 | VoidRaider | more like must ? |
07:56.05 | VoidRaider | ahh |
07:56.14 | Kirkburn | Why would you want anything else?? |
07:56.51 | Corr[home] | well... think about this. ambitious little hackers have made it possible to change your visual style or number of TCP connections (the old sp2 hack), against the operating system's desires. those are examples of things that it -sounds- like you could no longer do in Vista. tinkering with your own system is not allowed. |
07:57.24 | Thunder_Child | tinkering with your system is half the fun |
07:57.30 | Corr[home] | protect the user from himself, and all |
07:57.53 | Kirkburn | *Some* things are restricted, but seriously, nearly every thing you could do in XP, you can do in Vista, and more |
07:58.12 | Corr[home] | "Code Integrity (CI) protects Windows Vista by verifying that system binaries haven’t been tampered with by malicious code and by ensuring that there are no unsigned drivers running in kernel mode on the system." |
07:58.34 | VoidRaider | Well NTFS is not that great for gaming I'm no FAT expert but because its file permissions attributes it has some performance issues |
07:58.37 | Corr[home] | "malicious code", eyeroll |
07:58.59 | Kirkburn | First time I've heard of NTFS being not that good for gaming :/ |
07:59.04 | Thunder_Child | they should have a "Dev Vista" for those that like to "fuck over their system" |
07:59.09 | VoidRaider | it's common sense |
07:59.18 | Corr[home] | it's not common sense... |
07:59.31 | VoidRaider | Well I'll explain then |
07:59.43 | Kirkburn | Only on 64-bit Vista are unsigned drivers blocked |
08:00.11 | Corr[home] | what if i write a driver that i want to use, to interact with my own computer? is it going to tell me i can't do that unless i get microsoft to sign it for me? |
08:00.49 | Kirkburn | See my previous line? |
08:00.53 | VoidRaider | Before a file is being written or read from the harddrive the OS must confirm if you have the permissions to do it ... that doesn't slow down performance ? |
08:01.35 | Corr[home] | so the answer, if we're on the context of using the 64-bit version, is yes. |
08:01.41 | Kirkburn | Most of the time in gaming files aren't being written or read (except during loading and saving) |
08:01.52 | Kirkburn | Yes, that would be so |
08:02.00 | Corr[home] | i am displeased |
08:02.08 | Kirkburn | Do you often write your own drivers? |
08:02.19 | Corr[home] | nope |
08:02.31 | Kirkburn | Anyone that manages to write drivers for Vista would have enough to pay for the license |
08:02.52 | Kirkburn | It's to stop hackers from writing something and getting it onto systems |
08:03.14 | sylvanaar | im sure that you can sign your own drivers or something |
08:03.20 | Corr[home] | even if that's true, i don't want to PAY to play with my own drivers. |
08:03.41 | Kirkburn | But that's the thing - pretty much no-one does make their own drivers |
08:03.49 | Kirkburn | Drivers are made by companies |
08:03.51 | Corr[home] | and before you get on me about not writing my own drivers, note that i'm talking about both the concept of it not being possible and about the real situation that i actually use quite a variety of unsigned drivers |
08:04.29 | Kirkburn | I know, I use unsigned gfx drivers |

08:04.56 | sylvanaar | drivers arent as complicated as you are making them sound |
08:05.41 | Kirkburn | Perhaps, but that doesn't mean that every man and their dog is suddenly making them |
08:05.51 | VoidRaider | Hmm the textures must be read from the harddrive every once in a while I mean you don't really believe it loads everything to the memory ? |
08:06.07 | Kirkburn | If you have enough RAM |
08:06.09 | Corr[home] | this may be a ridiculous train of thought across a slippery slope, but consider this. microsoft makes you pay for them to review a driver you write to... alter your some aspect of your display. then their execs get a fun idea, and in the next update they demand that you pay them when you want to change your resolution, and then whenever you want to launch an application. |
08:06.31 | Corr[home] | *your some aspect -> some aspect |
08:06.51 | Corr[home] | windows love you long time, launchy launch $5 |
08:07.03 | Kirkburn | Well that just won't happen, will it |
08:07.28 | Kirkburn | They already do get drivers checked by MS |
08:07.40 | Corr[home] | it's the same idea, just on a smaller scale. every time they refuse to let me interact with my computer how i want, i chafe. |
08:07.41 | Kirkburn | WHQL testing |
08:07.49 | VoidRaider | It's not true, mate, even if I have enough RAM, The game loads only the textures that are visible to you into the memory |
08:07.51 | sylvanaar | they can do things which will destabilize your system - thats why MS wants to control them. because ignorant people will install the driver then blame resulting problems on windows |
08:08.22 | Kirkburn | VoidRaider, I don't recall HL2 thrashing away at the hdd whilst playing levels |
08:08.46 | Corr[home] | historically, people have unrightfully blamed windows for instability. however, they haven't stopped buying it. |
08:09.11 | Corr[home] | Aero is enough to placate them |
08:09.14 | Kirkburn | Corr[home], to be honest, anything you could do on XP, you can do on Vista. It's still completely customizable in nearly every way (unlike *cough* OSX *cough*) |

08:11.35 | Kirkburn | (actually more like Win98, which was FAT32) |
08:12.08 | Corr[home] | can i wire together my own Wii controller adapater, write a driver for it, and install it? perhaps. the article mentioned only kernel-mode drivers. let's try this. can i write a driver that will let me... sniff on my network interface? |
08:12.38 | Kirkburn | I wouldn't recommend getting 64-bit Vista for a long while, anyway |
08:13.09 | Kirkburn | Yeah, most drivers shouldn't need low-level access anyway |

10:12.58 | Thunder_Child | i dunno, prey had a really cool storyline |
10:13.44 | Karl | prey is newer |
10:13.53 | Karl | using the same engine |
10:14.12 | Thunder_Child | as fear or deus ex? |
10:14.16 | Karl | fear |
10:14.38 | Karl | but since i haven't played prey i cant just that one yet |

10:15.25 | Thunder_Child | for some reason i could never seem to get fear to work on my system |
10:15.44 | Karl | fear has really high system reqs |
10:16.01 | Karl | but so does prey |
10:16.01 | Thunder_Child | i can play oblivion fine, and it's higher |
10:16.20 | Thunder_Child | and prey worked like a charm at max |
10:16.33 | Karl | haven't played oblivion yet, and prolly wont. i watched my roomie play msot of it |
10:16.35 | Thunder_Child | i could never figure it out |
10:16.44 | Karl | i hear the prey exp reqs are even worse |
10:17.25 | Thunder_Child | worse than oblivion? |
10:17.30 | Karl | and prey |
10:17.44 | Thunder_Child | ...you lost me |
10:18.15 | Karl | the prey expansion is newer than oblivion i believe and obviously newer than prey |
10:18.29 | Karl | i could be wrong tho |
10:18.30 | Thunder_Child | you just said prey twice..twice |
10:18.56 | Karl | wht? |
10:19.05 | Thunder_Child | you said prey twice |
10:19.12 | Thunder_Child | two different times |
10:19.17 | Karl | "prey expansion" |
10:19.21 | Karl | the 2nd one |
10:19.26 | Karl | i dunno what it's called |
10:19.36 | Thunder_Child | oh, i didnt even know there was one |
10:19.51 | Karl | maybe i'm thinkign fear |
10:19.54 | Thunder_Child | i think i am falling behind on my research |
10:20.14 | Karl | i must be thinkign of fear |
10:20.22 | Karl | "F.E.A.R. Extraction Point Expansion Pack" |
10:20.37 | Thunder_Child | ah |
10:20.47 | Thunder_Child | requireing the origonal? |
10:20.56 | Karl | i think so, but im not sure |
10:21.10 | Thunder_Child | huh...odd to upgrade grpahics in the exp |
10:21.19 | Thunder_Child | graphics* |
10:21.47 | Thunder_Child | in a exp* |
10:21.57 | Thunder_Child | ...an* |
10:22.01 | Thunder_Child | i am way to tired |
10:22.35 | [Wobin] | What... like how TBC does? =P |
10:23.21 | Thunder_Child | tbc is upgrading the graphics? |
10:23.26 | Karl | fear came out in 2005, the exp was 10/24/2006 |
10:23.40 | Karl | so a month ago |
10:23.48 | Karl | pretty damn new |
10:25.18 | ckknight | [Wobin], what does TBC update graphics-wise? |
10:25.19 | Karl | "Note: This expansion pack requires the full version of F.E.A.R. to play. " |
10:25.36 | [Wobin] | I'm not sure to be honest, but it runs a whole lot more smoother on my system |
10:25.50 | [Wobin] | and it appears shinier =) |
10:26.00 | Thunder_Child | the only things that changes in the system req's for tbc is 256 --> 512 ram |
10:26.05 | Karl | looks like F.E.A.R. won IGN's best fps in 2005, and it deserved it |
10:26.20 | Thunder_Child | minimum |
10:26.40 | Thunder_Child | http://www.blizzard.com/wow/faq/faq_tech.shtml origional |
10:26.40 | Thunder_Child | http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/burningcrusade/faq.html new |
10:27.10 | Karl | LOL min reqs on the fear official site say: "Pentium? 41.7 GHz or equivalent processor" |
10:27.24 | Karl | ah ok, they missed a space |
10:27.31 | Thunder_Child | 4.17 prolly |
10:27.41 | Karl | no, pentium 4 1.7 |
10:27.42 | Thunder_Child | oh, yea i see what you mean |
10:27.50 | Karl | "Recommended Hardware |
10:27.50 | Karl | Pentium? 4 3.0 GHz or equivalent processor" |
10:28.14 | Karl | they don't even have an official page for the expansion |
10:29.25 | Karl | odd |
10:29.32 | Karl | min reqs on the expansion are the same |
10:29.59 | Karl | but my roommate said fear worked, but the expansion didn't work on his compy |
10:34.36 | Karl | reviews of F.E.A.R. Extraction Point say it's pretty much the same thing. which is good and bad i spose |
10:49.45 | Thunder_Child | anyone know of a mod that tracks who you have healed and how much? |

14:49.58 | Thunder_Child | or do i not want to know |

14:50.41 | Thunder_Child | no one else said anything about a quickie except for you |

14:52.13 | Naurbrannon | Hi people, requesting LUA help....what's the best way to know if a certain index is defined in a table? |
14:53.11 | cladhaire | if tbl[key] then |
14:53.51 | Naurbrannon | I used if table["index"] == nil then....but it seems to create the index |
14:54.04 | cladhaire | nope, that won't create an index. |
14:54.09 | cladhaire | is the key a string? |
14:54.12 | Naurbrannon | yes |
14:54.42 | cladhaire | in lua, if tbl["key"] is sufficient. |
14:54.49 | cladhaire | unless you're using false values. |
14:54.55 | cladhaire | i.e. tbl[key] = false |
14:55.23 | cladhaire | for clarity, what you had (if tbl[key] == nil) is correct |
14:56.14 | Naurbrannon | mmm thanks, gotta search for the problem somewhere else then :p |
14:56.35 | cladhaire | i can help you quickly identify it if you'd like |
14:56.38 | cladhaire | if its a table |
14:56.51 | Tain | The tea leaves will have the answer. |

14:57.13 | cladhaire | that will hand you your answer |
14:57.16 | cladhaire | called tealeaves =) |
14:57.19 | cladhaire | but seriously |
14:57.22 | Tain | 285 lines! cladhaire eats that for breakfast! |
14:57.27 | cladhaire | you create the table somewhere with tbl = {}, correct? |
14:57.34 | Naurbrannon | lines of madness? |
14:57.37 | Naurbrannon | yes |
14:57.56 | Tain | (The madness is like sauce, it adds tang.) |
14:58.02 | Naurbrannon | ur better...it's a saved variable |
14:58.02 | Thunder_Child | 285 line for breakfast?....seems kinda dry to me |
14:58.18 | Thunder_Child | s/line/lines/ |
14:59.10 | cladhaire | http://wowi.pastey.net/2721 |
14:59.20 | Naurbrannon | and well I'll never post the code to you, it's the first addon I made like 1 year ago knowing nothing of LUA, now I'm trying to fix it but the code suck so much that I'm kinda ashamed of it ^_^" |
14:59.33 | cladhaire | actually |
14:59.38 | cladhaire | that will only alarm on access |
14:59.42 | cladhaire | you want to alarm when the value is set, |
14:59.47 | cladhaire | that would help you find the problem correct? |
15:00.06 | Thunder_Child | no no, never be ashamed about coding, it's the other things you should be ashamed about.... :) |
15:00.14 | Naurbrannon | oO |
15:00.35 | cladhaire | http://wowi.pastey.net/2722 |
15:00.38 | cladhaire | don't ask what it does |
15:00.39 | cladhaire | we can do that later |
15:00.54 | cladhaire | also if its a SV we can change it so it attaches properly |
15:00.55 | cladhaire | your call |
15:00.56 | Tain | I was just gonna suggest that! |
15:01.53 | cladhaire | metatables solved world hunger, imo |
15:02.18 | Naurbrannon | err...where am i supposed to paste it? :p |
15:02.29 | Thunder_Child | umm...wold hunger still exists..... |
15:02.31 | Naurbrannon | (and wth is the error function? oO) |
15:02.53 | Thunder_Child | s/wold/world/ |
15:03.22 | cladhaire | Naurbrannon: Okay, problem statement. you are testing for existance of a keyed value in a savedvariable. youc an verity that it doesn't exist at some point, and you want to determine when it gets set. Is this accurate? |
15:03.44 | Naurbrannon | yep |
15:04.06 | cladhaire | do you register for ADDON_LOADED, VARIABLES_LOADED or PLAYER_LOGIN/ENTERING_WORLD? |
15:04.15 | cladhaire | i.e. is there an event which you can ensure your variables have been loaded |
15:04.24 | Naurbrannon | yes |
15:04.46 | cladhaire | then use this, in that function somewhere: http://wowi.pastey.net/2723 |
15:04.52 | cladhaire | it adds a metatable to your SV |
15:05.07 | cladhaire | which will error() when something tries to set tbl["yourkey"] |
15:05.12 | cladhaire | so you'll want to edit and change "yourkey" |
15:05.18 | Naurbrannon | ooook |
15:05.39 | Naurbrannon | thanks a lot |
15:05.57 | Naurbrannon | *go to study metatables* |

17:57.03 | Kaso | it seems to only rake Unit, index, [raidfilter] |
17:57.28 | Maldivia | kaso: yeah, from my quick checks on beta and ptr, it's only index.. |
17:57.53 | Maldivia | so was wondering if it was a copy-paste error from GetPlayerBuff*, or something available from next patch |
17:58.16 | Kaso | i dont recall there being any posts about unitbuff other than the returns change, so i guess its a mistake |
17:58.44 | Maldivia | well, it would make sense, since the code was already present in the UnitHasBuff functions |

18:13.14 | cladhaire | Maldivia: Its only taking unit, index, raidfilter |
18:13.40 | cladhaire | Maldivia: Must be copy/paste. UnitHasBuff() was just doing a naive iteration of the buffs, and slouken decided it was better to put that on our side of things, than force it on us on the C side. |
18:13.56 | cladhaire | Maldivia: asking him for name, rank helped clear that up a but. |
18:15.03 | Maldivia | yeah, I know it's simple to implement in lua, especially now that name is returned |
18:15.30 | Maldivia | but figured, it could be a logical extension, since the same behavior was added to player buffs |
18:15.40 | cladhaire | it wasn't, which is what I'm saying |
18:15.55 | cladhaire | player buffs end up being quite different from unit buffs |
18:15.56 | Maldivia | GetPlayerBuff("Arcane Intellect") |
18:16.14 | cladhaire | the implementation is very different between unit buffs, and player buffs, in this case. |
18:16.23 | Maldivia | yes |
18:16.55 | Maldivia | and I know, the reason for the player buff chance, was to allow /cancelaura |
18:17.11 | cladhaire | *nod* |
18:17.28 | Maldivia | and since all the playerbuff functions, probably use the same method to look up the buff, adding name support to one, added it automatically to them all |
18:17.58 | cladhaire | I asked for clarification cause I was concerned, btu it turns out two UnitHasBuff() is twice as expensive as a single naive iteration using UnitBuff().. so its proably good that its not there, since it would be bad practice |
18:19.17 | Maldivia | well, I'll probably keep my existing code on that area anyway |
18:19.44 | cladhaire | *nod* |
18:20.29 | Maldivia | currently caching unit buffs in a table, also makes it alot easier to detect which buff was added/removed. |
18:22.05 | cladhaire | yeah, that definitely makes things nice |
18:26.48 | Maldivia | hmm, no type return on UnitBuff |
18:34.49 | cladhaire | there shouldn't be. |
18:34.53 | cladhaire | its just name,rank,texture,count |
18:39.55 | Thunder_Child | anyone ever head of a gvalleymain timer? |
18:40.03 | VoidRaider | Hhmm haven't checked that, "Crowd Control effects in PvP will last no longer than 12 seconds instead of the full duration, with a chance of a heartbeat resist." I thought that this limit apply only to the Arena and not overall PvP ? |
18:41.19 | grimman | VoidRaider: Easy enough to check though, find a friendly mage and start the sheeping. ;D |
18:41.34 | VoidRaider | haha :P |
18:42.26 | grimman | Got a mail from Blizzard today offering me to bring a new sheep to the fold in exchange for 30 days of play time. |

18:51.35 | Maldivia | cladhaire: yeah, know there shouldn't be according to the API, but it could be nice |
18:51.49 | cladhaire | why? |
18:51.56 | cladhaire | there's never a need to know what type buff you have |
18:52.04 | cladhaire | since they can't be dispelled, they're all "Magic" |
18:52.05 | ScytheBlade1 | VoidRaider, it's true, 12s max with diminishing returns |
18:52.10 | cladhaire | i.e. you can't be Cursed, Poisoned or Diseased. |
18:52.11 | VoidRaider | Well it seems that people barely have PvP activity in the Beta haha |
18:52.19 | VoidRaider | ahh thx :) |
18:52.20 | Maldivia | buffs are either Magic or no type |
18:52.21 | ScytheBlade1 | JUST because of that, I can't beat paladins anymore :( |
18:52.30 | VoidRaider | :P |
18:52.40 | Maldivia | cladhaire: only magic-type buffs can be dispelled, purged or stolen |
18:52.48 | cladhaire | but they're all magic type |
18:52.52 | ScytheBlade1 | Trust me, I tried... third cast of sheep broke pretty much instantly, and on the fourth the guy was immune |
18:52.53 | Maldivia | No |
18:53.13 | cladhaire | where's the distinction? |
18:53.16 | Maldivia | for instance paladin Auras are not specifiec |
18:53.25 | Maldivia | and a lot of trinket buffs |
18:53.27 | Tuller | finally found the unit watch code, hurray :) |
18:53.49 | VoidRaider | With diminishing returns are you sure ? since I need to set the appropriate cap time in a case it's a player :) |
18:54.04 | cladhaire | Maldivia: Maybe its a matter of asking for CanStealBuff(unit, index)? |
18:54.21 | ScytheBlade1 | VoidRaider, I'm 100% sure |
18:54.26 | VoidRaider | ok thx mate :D |
18:54.31 | cladhaire | unless ALL magic buffs can be stolen, bar none. |
18:54.36 | Maldivia | well, buffs have a type associates (as seen on the buff tooltip), so why not return that aswell |
18:54.45 | Maldivia | eventhough it's for 90% of all buffs are "Magic" |
18:54.50 | cladhaire | might not hurt to ask for it =) |

19:49.32 | Maldivia | because it's shows/hidefs the target of target frame - a secure frame |
19:50.02 | Maldivia | or some other feature of the ToT |
19:51.30 | ckknight_ | but it's never being called by the blocked addon. |
19:51.47 | Maldivia | dont always trust which addon it blames :) |

19:52.16 | ckknight_ | but still, it's weird. |
19:52.38 | cladhaire | why? something tainted the frame, or some value in that table, most likely |
19:52.58 | cladhaire | do you have a reproducible condition? |
19:53.37 | Maldivia | ckknight: tried using the Taint map addon, to see what is tainted? |
19:54.03 | ckknight_ | no, not yet (it's not even my error anyway) |
19:54.48 | cladhaire | if you can reproduce it you should be able to trace it back pretty easily |

19:58.01 | |FF|Im2good4u | oke thanks ill go look up sme documentation on it :P |
19:58.28 | cladhaire | its just standard bitwise operations, i.e. bit.and(33, 1) returns 1 |

20:15.29 | Cide | 2 & 1 = 0 |

20:19.22 | Kirkburn | Someone's response to the fact that Tempest Keep is having problems: "No need to restart the server, it's only Outland that's down." |
20:19.32 | Kirkburn | Uh, yeah, so we'll all just sit in Ironforge then =) |
20:19.35 | Kaso | ha |
20:20.21 | Kaso | i was actually patrolling around netherstorm trying to find you when it went down kirk :> |

20:31.20 | Kaso | thats a bit harsh |
20:31.22 | Kaso | why? |
20:31.41 | Kirkburn | <Kaso> just flying ... mount ... |
20:31.48 | Kaso | haha |
20:31.51 | Kaso | <3 lvl 70 |
20:31.52 | Kirkburn | argh :) |
20:32.06 | Kirkburn | What happens if you log out mid flight? |
20:32.11 | Kirkburn | (also, you can hover, right?) |
20:32.16 | Cide | doesn't matter in most cases as long as it doesn't overflow, |FF|Im2good4u |
20:32.20 | Kaso | you can hover, and you log in hovering |
20:32.57 | Kirkburn | Cool |
20:33.12 | Kaso | there seems a rather large potential for roof camping though |
20:33.18 | Kirkburn | So I hear |
20:33.49 | Kaso | mobs deaggro as soon as you fly up yard or two |
20:34.04 | Kirkburn | Oh, PvE roof camping too? |
20:34.27 | Kaso | well, it woudlnt work in pve, the mobs would just evade |
20:34.40 | Kaso | but that big stone in the centre of HH is awesome for ganking on |
20:34.50 | Kaso | ... not that i'd know or anything |
20:35.02 | Kirkburn | I can understand the mobs deaggroing I think - I mean, who would keep trying to jump and hit a flying object? |
20:35.10 | Kirkburn | heh |
20:35.28 | grimman | Elite kangarogues? ;P |

20:35.53 | Kaso | I think druids are a little too imba, they can go flight form while falling |
20:36.08 | Kaso | so they can go caster - moonfire - flying |
20:36.12 | Kaso | and gank mid air |
20:36.27 | |FF|Im2good4u | i just dont understand why u cant use the flying mounts in the normal world |
20:36.29 | ckknight | can you use flight form in Azeroth? |
20:36.35 | Kirkburn | I thought they couldn't go flight form in combat? |
20:36.36 | Kaso | nope |
20:36.37 | Kirkburn | No, ckknight |
20:36.42 | ckknight | ... |
20:36.43 | ckknight | why not? |
20:36.44 | grimman | I envision swarms of druids doing airstrikes. |
20:36.45 | Kirkburn | The world was never designed for it :( |
20:36.51 | ckknight | they should fix that. |
20:36.56 | ckknight | I mean, srsly. |
20:36.59 | Kaso | it be tonnes of work though |
20:37.00 | Kirkburn | They'd have to finish off a HUGE amount of areas |
20:37.08 | Cide | that'd be another expansion in itself, just to enable one, small feature? I think no |
20:37.10 | Cide | t |
20:37.11 | Kirkburn | Seriously massive amounts of work |
20:37.17 | ckknight | yea, I suppose. |
20:37.17 | End | yeah |
20:37.18 | ckknight | :-P |
20:37.21 | Kirkburn | As Cide says, next expansion =) |
20:37.24 | ckknight | I still think it'd be cool |
20:37.28 | Kirkburn | Hell yeah |
20:37.29 | Cide | it would be cool, sure |
20:37.30 | End | there are a lot of areas that depend on the player being at ground location |
20:37.31 | grimman | ckknight: The border between Searing Gorge and Badlands alone looks like utter shite. ;P |
20:37.39 | ckknight | so what's the next expansion gonna be? ;-) |
20:37.45 | Cide | emerald dream! |
20:37.45 | End | as well as flat areas :P |
20:37.48 | Cide | (my guess) |
20:37.53 | grimman | Northrend? |
20:37.59 | Cide | northrend's too early |
20:38.01 | Teomyr | northrend! i hope ^^ |
20:38.03 | ckknight | not Northrend |
20:38.10 | ckknight | my guess is Sunken Kalimdor + Undermine |
20:38.16 | Kirkburn | Good old, green block, red block, green block, red block, giant gulf without land, random mountain, blue block, tree ... |
20:38.40 | Kirkburn | I would say so too |
20:39.10 | grimman | But hey... Kaso, how far out from the main Outlands continent can you fly on the mount? And can you fly down past the invisible border without "falling"? |
20:39.23 | Kaso | i havent dared fligh down |
20:39.27 | grimman | I've only launched my pet down a couple of times so I know nothing about it. |
20:39.37 | Kirkburn | I'd love to see Nazjatar and Undermine, totally new areas |
20:39.39 | Kaso | but after about 2 min of flight in any direction away from land you hit a wall |
20:39.43 | Kaso | up aswell |
20:39.49 | grimman | ok |
20:40.03 | End | I think they should make it fatigue instead of a wall for outwards |
20:40.08 | Kirkburn | It saddens me that you can't do loop-the-loops though :) |
20:40.17 | Tuller | hrm, is it possible to set a secure frame's parent in combat? |
20:40.18 | Kaso | but you can fligh like between netherstorm and hellfire and stuff |
20:40.19 | Kirkburn | If only WoW used that type of control method :P |
20:40.24 | grimman | Makes sense to have a limited skybox, I just thought blizzard killed you or something. |
20:40.51 | Kirkburn | Well they do if you just jump off randomly ;) |
20:41.00 | Kaso | i think youd die from flying down, but i dont wanna lose dura from trying :< |
20:41.09 | grimman | So undress... nubbie. |
20:41.17 | Kirkburn | Unless you're on a flying mount, in which case you just run off the world into space and start flying |
20:41.22 | Kaso | you'd have to spirit ress |
20:41.34 | Kaso | 10min is also a long time of doing nothing |
20:41.38 | axxo | so get nakid, put stuff in bank |
20:41.53 | Kirkburn | Kaso, you sure? When you fall off normally the body is placed back on the side of the continent |
20:41.53 | grimman | As for fatigue... it's a bit wasteful in the end, the current live continents have massive ocean margins to serve a very small purpose. |
20:42.07 | Kaso | whatwhat?! |
20:42.11 | Kaso | noone told me about that |
20:42.21 | Kirkburn | Apparently so |
20:42.26 | Kaso | hmm |
20:42.29 | grimman | Right, so there you have it. |
20:42.30 | Kaso | ill give it a test |
20:42.34 | grimman | Get Fraps and get busy. |
20:42.38 | Kirkburn | (muahahahaha ;) |
20:42.55 | Kaso | fatigue is broken, if you get a low level priest geared properly you can outheal it |
20:42.55 | End | the first thing I did when I got to outland was jump off of a cliff |
20:42.59 | Kirkburn | But seriously, that's how it's supposed to work now |
20:43.17 | grimman | Kaso: No need for "geared properly"... I did it once when Kalimdor was crashed. |
20:43.33 | Kaso | well thats cheating |
20:43.41 | Kirkburn | Also, I want to know what's going on in Gilneas |
20:43.43 | grimman | Just make a char and run up from the UD starting area in my case, avoiding murlocs and healing in fatigue waters. |
20:44.00 | Kirkburn | And what is Alexstrazsa hiding in Grim Batol? |
20:44.09 | End | maybe herself |
20:44.13 | grimman | Gilneas? |
20:44.25 | Kirkburn | SW Lordaeron, grimman |
20:44.44 | grimman | I see. |
20:44.44 | Kirkburn | And what's the bit of land between IF and SW |
20:44.48 | End | anyways, gileans is small enough where it might just be a content patch...but who knows |
20:45.00 | Kirkburn | That sticky-out bit with the giant wall, that's Gilneas :) |
20:45.39 | Kirkburn | Oh and what about Kul'Tiras (a big island that should be off the coast of the wetlands) |
20:45.52 | Kirkburn | Another human nation there |
20:46.12 | Kirkburn | (note the Kul'Tiras sailors in Durotar) |
20:46.38 | Kirkburn | Basically, there's a loot to come |
20:46.43 | Kirkburn | Oh and Tirisfal Glades |
20:46.57 | grimman | Grim Batol gates hold nothing, it's just mountain behind them... if you were wondering. ;) |

20:48.46 | Kirkburn | Hmm, I should go visit the site of the battle in Day of the Dragon again |
20:48.56 | Kirkburn | Haven't been back there since I read the book |
20:49.06 | grimman | >_< |
20:49.20 | grimman | I need to buy those books. *sigh* |
20:49.32 | grimman | As well as the new Halo book. :P |
20:49.46 | Kirkburn | To most people it's just a broken-up caravan in the Wetlands, but it's actually the site of one of the most important battles in Warcraft |
20:50.35 | Kirkburn | (where Deathwing was once defeated, and Alexstrazsa was freed - in WC2 her dragonflight was controlled by the horde) |
20:50.44 | grimman | That I know. |
20:50.48 | Kirkburn | grimman, buy them! |
20:50.54 | grimman | There are so many. ;( |
20:51.04 | End | Alexstrazsa's flight was controlled by the dragonmaw clan |
20:51.05 | Kirkburn | I got them all last week =) |

20:54.59 | Kirkburn | There's a new compilation out called "Warcraft Archive" with 4 of them |
20:55.28 | Kirkburn | I got them all from Amazon |
20:55.50 | Kirkburn | Apart from one of the War of the Ancients books which Amazon didn't stock for some reason, so got thru the Amazon marketplace |
20:56.02 | Kirkburn | (this being Amazon.co.uk, of course) |
20:56.11 | grimman | Hm, I can get the Archive one for cheap. Amazing. |
20:56.22 | grimman | 613 pages? |
20:56.31 | Kirkburn | That's it |

20:58.37 | Amro | Hi! |
20:58.44 | Kirkburn | uh, hi :) |
20:59.17 | Kirkburn | (Ah wait, Nek'rosh not Nekros, it's his son, that makes more sense) |
20:59.20 | Amro | I'm trying to filter spam from the default chat frame. I don't wnt to parse each and every single message. Any ideas? |
20:59.25 | *** join/#wowi-lounge ckknight (n=ckknight@cpe-75-80-218-54.hawaii.res.rr.com) |
21:00.00 | Kaso | how can you work out if its what you want to filter or now without parsing all the messages? |
21:00.48 | Amro | its only a channel message that im looking for, which fires a different event. |
21:00.57 | Amro | problem is, would my addon get the message first? |
21:01.01 | Amro | er, the event |
21:01.46 | Kaso | if you want to block things showing up on the ChatFrame you need to hook it's addmessage or onevent rather than registering the event yourself |
21:01.49 | |FF|Im2good4u | is there maxuim size to a variable name in lua ? |
21:02.47 | |FF|Im2good4u | since i always write everything fully i get names lile "RaidLeaderAssist_Interface_Event_Variables_Loaded" lol |
21:03.08 | Amro | Right Kaso, but at that point I'd be parsing all messages |
21:03.23 | Kirkburn | grimman, oh, one other bit of DB-related news - 'VoM' (I think the server switchers) got into the beta :P |
21:03.28 | Amro | does the default chat frame have a way to remove the last line? |
21:04.06 | Kaso | Nope, youre stuck with hooking |
21:04.07 | Amro | oh but nevermind, that wouldn't be good |
21:04.19 | grimman | Kirkburn: I seem to recall hearing about such a thing, yes. |
21:04.22 | Kaso | but parsing it all isnt a huge problem |
21:04.29 | Kaso | check out http://www.wowwiki.com/HOWTO:_Hook_chat_frames_to_modify_or_suppress_messages |
21:04.42 | Amro | I know, but unecessary cycles are... unnecessary :) |
21:04.47 | Amro | I like to optimize |
21:04.50 | Amro | thanks for the link |
21:05.24 | Kaso | what exactly are you supressing |
21:06.51 | Amro | that's prettty much what im doing. I'm suppressing Darkshore World Defense spam. It's useless for Horde, there's a troll village there without anything but trolls that don't talk, and some pally has taken a liking to killing them. |
21:07.05 | Amro | usually we send a guy over to kill him, but we'd like to suppress the spam |
21:09.06 | VoidRaider | Does LUA supports the ternary operator the way C++, C# does ? I know it does for values e.g. done = (value == true) etc ... |
21:09.57 | Kaso | you'd want to hook ChatFrame_OnEvent, and you can put a simple if statement to check if its a local defense message then a quick "^Somewhere is under attack" string find, it'd barely be any impact |
21:10.09 | Maldivia | VoidRaider: what are you trying to do ? |
21:10.50 | Maldivia | VoidRaider: in some sense x = (a > b) and (yes) or (no); |
21:10.55 | Amro | ah, forgot about the OnEvent handlers. thanks Kaso :) |
21:14.43 | VoidRaider | yeah Maldivia, would it work ? also x = (n1 or n2) ? |
21:15.41 | Maldivia | yeah |
21:16.06 | Maldivia | x = n1 or n2; would result in n1 (if n1 is not null and not false), n2 otherwise |
21:16.08 | VoidRaider | ah ok thx |
21:16.28 | VoidRaider | ah great :) |
21:17.37 | Maldivia | x and y; returns x, if x is false or null, y otherwise |
21:18.22 | VoidRaider | yeah got it :D |
21:20.03 | Maldivia | also remember, lua doesn't do a full boolean evaluation, so: x() and y(); <-- if x() returns false/nil, y() is never executed |
21:21.00 | VoidRaider | ohh |
21:21.47 | VoidRaider | thanks mate :) |
21:23.02 | |FF|Im2good4u | i like that system since i can avoid errors whit it like if x and y[x] then wont make an error if x is nil |
21:23.59 | VoidRaider | yeah true, it has some sense :) |
21:24.51 | VoidRaider | what bothers me a bit in LUA is the VB syntax haha |
21:25.55 | VoidRaider | I like to use semantics more, it makes it easier :P |
21:26.57 | VoidRaider | but generally it's great language :) |
21:33.03 | Kaso | i find my productivity on writing addons goes up 10000% when the beta servers are down |
21:33.21 | |FF|Im2good4u | \ |
21:33.29 | |FF|Im2good4u | lol kaso |
21:33.45 | |FF|Im2good4u | iv been at beta but i dont wana know everything of ourland yet so i kinda stoppped it ;P |
21:34.49 | |FF|Im2good4u | VoidRaider: wut do u mean whit semantics? |
21:35.10 | Teomyr | and i'm still waiting for my key :/ |
21:36.11 | |FF|Im2good4u | some guy was selling a BC key ingame for gold :P |
21:36.23 | Teomyr | lol |
21:36.24 | VoidRaider | semantics means like if(x) { } the brackets syntax is much more easier for me |
21:36.46 | |FF|Im2good4u | ah that way |
21:36.48 | VoidRaider | then using if() then end etc |
21:37.06 | |FF|Im2good4u | yeh i had to get used to it aswel when i left from C :P |
21:37.42 | VoidRaider | :) |
21:38.53 | |FF|Im2good4u | also the thing that u do not need to decleare a variable bothered me at the beginning since i can easly miss-spell one name and lua would accept it. |
21:39.06 | VoidRaider | yup |
21:39.37 | grimman | Hehe, VB has an option to turn on such functionality. ;D |
21:39.45 | Mery | I think it's a good exercise for you (|FF|Im2good4u) to learn to type with more care! |
21:39.56 | |FF|Im2good4u | Mery it isnt |
21:40.18 | |FF|Im2good4u | im used to copy pasting every varriable name its not efficient but its safe :p |
21:40.30 | Mery | (it is meant kinda ironic) |
21:40.41 | Mery | oh I usually copy paste alot of names too |
21:40.52 | VoidRaider | Yeah Strict Options however VB also has alot of things you can't control that can result alot of mistakes |
21:41.00 | VoidRaider | Option* |
21:41.00 | Mery | the problem is if I got a typo and then actually type the name somehwere else |

21:43.42 | |FF|Im2good4u | i searched it all out :P |
21:43.48 | Maldivia | there are textures in the tooltip |
21:43.50 | Maldivia | that are set |
21:43.51 | grimman | Oh my, a new Steven Seagal movie. The moviesphere is crumbling. ;P |
21:44.10 | Kaso | is there anywhere i can read up about how it works? |
21:44.21 | |FF|Im2good4u | i gues not yet :P |
21:44.37 | Kaso | or can you tell me, how i'd go about making a line with a gem on it |
21:44.49 | |FF|Im2good4u | but just like u can add lines to a tooltip u can also add 4 textures to it |
21:45.13 | Kaso | how? |
21:45.26 | Maldivia | GameTooltipTexture1:SetTexture(...) GameTooltipTexture1:Show() GameTooltipTexture1:SetPoint("LEFT", GameTooltipTextLeft8, "LEFT") |
21:45.43 | Kaso | sweet |
21:45.49 | Maldivia | well, that would probably work :) |
21:45.52 | Kaso | and you say there are 4 textures? |
21:45.59 | Maldivia | 8 textuyres |
21:46.06 | Kaso | hokay |
21:46.08 | |FF|Im2good4u | there is a simpel GameTooltip:AddTexture aswel but its called different |
21:46.09 | Kaso | cool ty muchly |
21:46.26 | Maldivia | ok, the add texture method might be better :) |
21:46.41 | Kaso | AddTexture(texture,line) is it? |
21:46.55 | Maldivia | try a /run GameTooltip:AddTexture() |
21:47.01 | Maldivia | and see if you get a syntax |

21:47.25 | Cide | well |
21:47.29 | Cide | silently succeeds I suppose |
21:47.38 | Cide | it shifts the text to the right |

21:47.59 | Maldivia | AddTextures sets the texture for the last line you added |
21:48.00 | Cide | but :Show() doesn't make the tooltip wider |
21:48.09 | Kaso | t9u8r0n8i1p |
21:48.13 | VoidRaider | Do creation of frames dynamically using CreateFrame have any issues nor limits I need to know about ? |
21:48.26 | Kaso | they cant be removed |
21:48.34 | Cide | nor can frames created in xml |
21:48.49 | Kaso | well, true. |
21:48.51 | VoidRaider | true, but thats reasonable |
21:49.02 | |FF|Im2good4u | isnt the onl prob that dynamicly created frames use more cpu at the time of creation ? |
21:49.03 | Cide | VoidRaider: 1) you can't set an OnLoad handler and expect it to run, 2) you can't create virtual frames |
21:49.22 | VoidRaider | oh ok great :) |
21:49.55 | |FF|Im2good4u | i personaly sux at xml so i use CreateFrame a lot :P |
21:50.03 | VoidRaider | haha :D |
21:50.15 | Maldivia | frames created with CreateFrame, inherits it's security-settings from it's parent |
21:50.15 | Cide | sucksing at XML must... suck |
21:50.35 | Cide | Maldivia: isn't that also true with xml? |
21:50.41 | |FF|Im2good4u | well i use WoW UI Desinger to make the basic ui :p |
21:51.04 | Maldivia | Cide: yeah |
21:51.17 | Cide | thought so |
21:51.26 | Maldivia | but it can be used, in conjunction with the SecureRaidHeader etc, to make child frames, that can also be altered |
21:52.26 | VoidRaider | So where can I safely initialize it after onload ? would it be safe to do the creation inside the event VARIABLES_LOADED ? |
21:52.30 | Kirkburn | I find Tempest Keep's lack of Outland disturbing ... |
21:52.58 | Maldivia | it was just to point out the difference between f=CreateFrame("Frame", nil, nil, "SecureFrameTemplate") f:SetParent(parent) and f=CreateFrame("Frame", nil, parent, "SecureFrameTemplate") |
21:53.01 | |FF|Im2good4u | VoidRaider: after creation :P |
21:53.28 | VoidRaider | :P |
21:53.29 | |FF|Im2good4u | u create it and after that u can do stuff whit it in the same function |
21:53.39 | VoidRaider | ah ok :) |

21:53.58 | VoidRaider | thx :D |
21:54.12 | Maldivia | VoidRaider: depends what you're making... if the frames needs to be created depending on some saved variables, it would be logical to postpone the initialization of the frames till after the variuables had been loadedr |
21:55.20 | |FF|Im2good4u | hmm tru but if u create the frame later on while playing ingame that event never fires again |
21:55.54 | VoidRaider | hmm |
21:55.55 | Cide | if you do it after, your variables are already loaded so the point is void |

21:56.56 | Mery | no |
21:57.38 | VoidRaider | sure the event will never fire again but I need to create the frames only once :P |
21:58.01 | Mery | the only thing with creating it in reaction to SAVED_VARIABLES is that saved variables gets only fired once at startup, in the case you make your addon Load on Demand you won't get a VARIABLES_LOADED |
21:58.17 | Mery | so you could move it into ADDON_LOADED and arg1 == "AddonName" |

22:32.09 | Cide | think so |
22:32.31 | Cide | I wish there were more stats though |
22:32.46 | Cide | right now, it feels like healer progression = more +healing |
22:33.00 | Cide | sure it helps, but it's boring |
22:33.33 | Maldivia | well, 1handers has always been low stats, but high dmg/healing |
22:33.47 | Maldivia | and staves have been high stats, and lower dmg/healing |
22:34.21 | Cide | yeah, but most healing staves are just +15-30 int, +15-40 stamina, +X healing |
22:35.05 | Maldivia | Staff of Infinite Mysteries, 55 stam, 46 int, 18 hit, 159 dmg |
22:35.21 | Cide | that's a dps caster staff |
22:35.30 | Cide | spell hit is useless for healers |
22:35.34 | Maldivia | I know |
22:35.46 | Maldivia | haven't foind a single epic healer staff yet |
22:35.49 | Maldivia | lvl 70 |
22:35.54 | Cide | unrelated, that's a pretty awesome staff |
22:36.11 | Gello | <PROTECTED> |
22:36.35 | Maldivia | well, you have hit so you can MC better... hehe |
22:37.04 | Cide | well, how I see it |
22:37.44 | Cide | caster stats: spell hit, spell crit, spell penetration, mana regen(spi/mp5), +dmg, +healing, int, sta |
22:37.54 | Maldivia | spr |
22:38.00 | Cide | that's under mana regen |
22:38.04 | Maldivia | yeah, noticed :) |
22:38.24 | Cide | all but +healing are useful for dps casters, whereas +healing, int, sta & mana regen are the only useful ones for healers |
22:38.36 | Cide | leaving 4 totally useless stats in most cases |
22:38.52 | Maldivia | yeah, crits are useless for healing.. |
22:39.09 | Cide | they are, in current content :) |
22:39.25 | Maldivia | well, I'd rather have consistant healing, that spiky healing |
22:40.09 | Maldivia | but then again, what would you use spell hit and spell penetration for, when healing? |
22:40.46 | Cide | you wouldn't |
22:40.52 | Cide | I'm just ranting about the lack of unique healer stats |
22:41.06 | Cide | dps casters have 4, healers have one |
22:41.07 | Maldivia | they should just add more healer procs |
22:41.44 | Cide | as long as they're not called Holy Concentration (worst talent ever) |
22:41.49 | Maldivia | hehe |
22:42.09 | Maldivia | I love Clearcasting on my mage :) |
22:48.54 | Tem | Clearcasting is HUGE in raids |
22:49.06 | Cide | what's the proc rate? |
22:49.09 | Tem | 10% |
22:49.26 | Cide | roughly twice that of holy concentration |
22:49.44 | Tem | you get a proc and cast arcane missiles |
22:50.03 | Cide | holy concentration comes down to a ~8-10% mana reduction on two spells |
22:50.23 | Tem | ah, clearcast is 100% reduction on 10% of spells |
22:50.35 | Tem | but you can get better than 10% if you use it well |
22:51.01 | Cide | it'd be a 6% reduction if it'd be exact |
22:51.08 | Cide | but a bit more factoring in mana regen |
22:51.17 | Cide | improved healing, two tiers above (that is, a "weaker" talent), is 15% |
22:51.35 | Cide | and it's reliable |
22:55.25 | Maldivia | Tem: Clearcasting is useless with arcane missiles in beta :| |
22:55.34 | Tem | why's that? |
22:55.44 | Maldivia | well, if you spec deep arcane anyway |
22:55.54 | Maldivia | the talent that gives you +30% crit from clearcasting |
22:56.22 | Maldivia | but since Arcane Missiles is a channeled spell, the mana is lost when you begin the cast, thus you loose the +30% crit before the first bolt is fired |
22:56.58 | Maldivia | so well, clearcasting ins't useless, but it's improved talent is, |
22:58.44 | Tem | Maldivia, hah, I hadn't thought of that |
22:59.04 | Maldivia | really bad design from Blizzard |
22:59.08 | Tem | I tried a deep arcane spec and hated every moment of it |
22:59.42 | Maldivia | a 40,18,3 or 40,21,0 build can be really deadly |
23:01.13 | Maldivia | +25% dmg from int (with talents, 4.6 int = 1 dmg), +3% post-dmg, +3% crit, +30% crit on |
23:01.31 | Maldivia | on clearcasting, +50% crit damage, and ignite on top of that |
23:01.52 | Maldivia | ehh, not 4.6 :) |
23:02.25 | Maldivia | 3.5 :) |
23:02.39 | Maldivia | or something like that |
23:03.46 | Maldivia | if you're a gnome, Arcane Intellect (+31) adds 10 damage |

23:07.32 | Tem | Maldivia, the extra spell damage is nice, but I found thta 5/5 Fire Power gave me the same bonus |
23:07.50 | Tem | now, my crits were a few hundred damage more |
23:08.07 | Maldivia | the problem with fire power, is that's it's pre-dmg |
23:08.11 | Maldivia | so it doesnt scale |
23:08.13 | Tem | no it's not |
23:08.18 | Tem | it *does* scale :) |
23:08.25 | Maldivia | when did they change that? |
23:08.31 | Tem | it's always been that way |
23:08.50 | Tem | same way that Peircing ice is after damage |
23:08.53 | Cide | they changed all healing spells to be post-+healing |
23:08.58 | Maldivia | piercing ice is pre-damage |
23:09.03 | Tem | nope |
23:09.11 | Maldivia | YES |
23:09.11 | Cide | and most (all?) damage spells have been post-+damage |
23:09.20 | Cide | did something change in expansion? |
23:09.33 | Tem | the frostbolt multiplier is 3/3.5*.95*1.06 |
23:09.39 | Maldivia | Arcane Instability is post now, used to be pre aswell |
23:09.48 | Tem | no idea about that one |
23:10.06 | Maldivia | the +6% frost is pre on live |
23:10.14 | Tem | 3/3.5 (cast time) * .95 (snare penalty) * 1.06 (3/3 peicing ice) |
23:10.16 | Tem | no it's not! |
23:11.00 | Maldivia | Noticed how your tooltip update when you put points in it? |
23:11.25 | Maldivia | meaning, it alters the BASE damage - meaning it's before dmg gear and other modifiers |
23:11.47 | Cide | are you sure? :) |
23:11.56 | Tem | why then does the formula I just posted acrruately describe how much bonus from spell damage frostbolt gets? |
23:12.25 | Maldivia | I have no idea why it does for you, because it doesn't for me |
23:12.33 | Tem | have you tested? |
23:12.41 | Maldivia | yes, a lot |
23:12.42 | Cide | Maldivia: if you have (base + dmg*coefficient) * bonus, the bonus would apply to both base and dmg*coeffient obviously, so it'd make sense to update the base value in the tooltip to me |
23:12.44 | Tem | because I have |
23:12.54 | Cide | I don't know which is true though, I'll let you sort that out! |
23:13.13 | Maldivia | Cide: there's a difference on base*1.06 + dmgmod vs (base + dmgmod)*1.06 |
23:13.25 | Cide | yes |
23:13.42 | Cide | but it would increase the base value in both cases, so it'd make sense to update the tooltip in both cases as well |
23:13.56 | Tem | hmm, I wonder |
23:14.10 | Cide | no idea if it *does* that in practice, that's just how I would do it as a designer |
23:15.32 | Tem | Maldivia, If you trust Theorycraft, his forumla agrees with me |
