03:49.09 | ckknight | it's pretty nifty now |
03:49.15 | ckknight | I reached feature parity with MSBT |
03:49.31 | ckknight | I just need to stick in more animation styles to reach parity with SCT |
03:49.52 | Corrodias | i haven't tried MSBT in-depth. i don't even know just how i want my text to show up. |
03:50.14 | ckknight | well, just try Parrot, see if you like it, it's pretty customizeable |
03:50.25 | ckknight | I won't feel too bad if you decide not to use it |
03:50.58 | Corrodias | i shall try it, but it's hard to say if i'll like it when even i don't know what i want |
03:51.03 | ckknight | lol |
03:51.09 | ckknight | yea, I know how that is |
03:51.13 | Corrodias | all i don't like about my current SCT setup is how spammy it gets, how much space on my screen it usesl |
03:51.48 | ckknight | Parrot is much less spammy than SCT |
03:51.51 | ckknight | due to event merging |
03:52.00 | ckknight | AoEs show up as a single message instead of multiple |
03:52.10 | ckknight | and hots/dots can merge as well |
03:52.15 | ckknight | as well as power gains |
03:52.25 | ckknight | so VT/VE spam is a thing of the past |
03:52.41 | Corrodias | i don't suppose Parrot is configurable via Niagara and i somehow missed it on the list? |
03:52.52 | ckknight | you click the parrot on the minimap to bring up Waterfall |
03:52.59 | ckknight | (which is what Niagara uses) |

03:54.09 | ckknight | btw, if you come up with useful features or bug reports, don't be afraid to tell me |

03:55.44 | JoshBorke | cog|book: hm |
03:55.58 | JoshBorke | cog|book: i just made some widgets using the equivalent of the xml templates |

03:56.30 | JoshBorke | a slider and a checkbox to be exact |
03:56.34 | JoshBorke | and a button is a great idea |
03:58.05 | Corrodias | that beer went straight to my head |
03:59.35 | Corrodias | by default it suppresses the Clearcasting event? that seems odd |

06:12.41 | Guillotine | eh, I don't use HuDs |
06:12.53 | Kirov | I use a "hud" mod on my rogue, an no one else |
06:12.57 | art3mis | i do cuz im too lazy to look at UF's ;) |
06:13.12 | Kirov | It's the only class I really never look away from the center of my screen with. |
06:13.17 | Guillotine | the problem is I'm a feral druid, so I'm in and out of forms alot. So alot of the cool action bar setups have to be reconfigured for each form :/ |
06:13.29 | art3mis | check out sphere |
06:13.35 | art3mis | you might actually like it if you're a clicker |
06:13.42 | art3mis | if yer a keyboard player not so much |
06:13.56 | ScytheBlade1 | ! |
06:13.58 | art3mis | supports forms and circumstance buttons |
06:13.59 | ScytheBlade1 | Spellbinder! |
06:14.23 | ScytheBlade1 | Spellbinder is a microscopic addon which replaces all need for any form of buttons on my screen. |
06:14.34 | ScytheBlade1 | (But I am an obsessive keybinder.) |
06:14.41 | art3mis | heh yeah |
06:14.45 | art3mis | im forgetful |
06:14.55 | art3mis | i like visible buttons ;P |
06:15.04 | Guillotine | Scythe: ya, I use spellbinder :) Definately an addon I'm keeping |
06:15.07 | Guillotine | I'm a heavy keyboarder |
06:15.11 | Guillotine | for most things |
06:15.16 | Guillotine | I use click casting for healing |
06:15.19 | ScytheBlade1 | My bindings-cache is 4.3kb |
06:15.22 | Guillotine | and keyboarding for tanking/dpsing |
06:15.44 | ScytheBlade1 | Yeah, for healing, I'd bind heals to my mouse buttons 4/5 |
06:15.45 | Guillotine | art3mis: have any screenshots of sphere? Can't find any on the official thread and/or wiki page |
06:15.46 | art3mis | heh i use benecast for healing cuz im REALLY lazy |
06:15.52 | art3mis | its a wowace |
06:15.54 | Guillotine | Clique for healing |
06:15.55 | ScytheBlade1 | Then use mouseover raidframes to heal with that |
06:15.56 | ScytheBlade1 | Yup |
06:15.57 | Guillotine | art3mis: I know |
06:15.59 | art3mis | not sure if it got put anywhere else |
06:16.10 | art3mis | its in "beta" sorta |
06:16.12 | Guillotine | ah, found it |
06:16.14 | art3mis | its on files. |
06:16.17 | Guillotine | a screenshot that is |
06:16.18 | Guillotine | I know |
06:16.21 | Guillotine | I knew where the file was |
06:16.26 | Guillotine | just wante dto see what it looked like |
06:16.31 | art3mis | yeah i only just talk to people in #wa |
06:16.34 | art3mis | oh |
06:16.36 | art3mis | thats easy |
06:16.47 | art3mis | its a picture of yer head and 2 circle bars |
06:16.59 | art3mis | and radiant buttons that sprout from it |
06:16.59 | Guillotine | not so much for me. I rarely use icons other than to see if I have enough energy/rage and if the ability is ready |

06:30.33 | Guillotine | I use grid for raid healing |
06:30.36 | Guillotine | just need one for myself really |
06:30.46 | Guillotine | hmm, guess I could use a HUD for that actually. save space |
06:33.08 | Kirov | x-perl or pitbul |
06:33.54 | Kirov | as pretty as a lot of HUDs are, I find they make me focus on the middle of the screen way too much. |

15:52.10 | Cairenn | Fin: those are everyone's lines :p |
15:52.15 | Fin | it's like me having a conversation with myself where I try and be witty |
15:52.26 | Fin | no! I claim ownership! |
15:52.27 | zenzelezz | in case of a conflict, Cairenn's lines supercedes Fin's |
15:52.30 | Fin | I'll see you in court, buddy! |
15:52.46 | GofG | ANyone in here use Bongos? |
15:52.55 | Kaydeethree | I do |
15:52.59 | GofG | And would be willing to help me troubleshoot my problem? |
15:53.05 | Cairenn | umm, in this case, the line should be "I'll see you in court, chickie!", since I'm female |
15:53.07 | Kaydeethree | ask away |
15:53.28 | zenzelezz | Cairenn: proof plz |
15:53.28 | GofG | So, every time I relog back into my Mage, all my hotbars are reset to page 1 |
15:53.35 | GofG | no matter what I set them to afterward |
15:53.55 | Fin | (Cairenn: yeah, I know, but I don't see people use them often (enough) and for some reason I find them particularly funny so say them all the time - just struck me as coincidental to see them together. (I'm not seriously claiming them) :P) |
15:54.06 | Fin | Cairenn: we can't be buddies? |
15:54.06 | Cairenn | hehehe |
15:54.14 | GofG | and then, this is new, when I try to change the page back to what it is supposed to do, it doesn't change anything. It stays page 1 even though the slider says Page # |
15:54.16 | Cairenn | I suppose ... ;) |
15:54.21 | Fin | aww, shucks |
15:54.25 | Kaydeethree | part of me would say "make sure you've enabled paging from the right-click menu", but why are you paging bars on a non-stance-based class? |
15:54.28 | Fin | want to go shopping? |
15:54.34 | Cairenn | lol |
15:54.35 | Fin | is that what female buddies do? |
15:54.57 | Fin | just got off the phone with my gf, sorry |
15:54.59 | Cairenn | more like go partying |
15:55.06 | Kaydeethree | I'm not sure tuller made sure that works properly for non-rogues/warriors/druids/spriests |
15:55.08 | Fin | we're moving in to a new place... ye gods this is going to be expensive |
15:55.16 | zenzelezz | all female buddies do is hang out and have pillow fights, didn't you know? |
15:55.22 | Fin | oh! yeah that's right |
15:55.24 | Lunessa | Fin there are only two ways in which a male can be buddies with a female if shopping is involved. |
15:55.33 | Fin | Lunessa: she's got my credit card! |
15:55.40 | Lunessa | That's way #1 |
15:55.48 | Kaydeethree | fin; hahaha |
15:55.59 | GofG | Kaydeethree: What do you mean? Maybe I don't fully understand how Bongos works. |
15:56.01 | Cairenn | in sexy little nothings, which get 1/2 torn off, after which we have a female-on-female orgy - duh |
15:56.13 | cog|book | O.O |
15:56.17 | Fin | yeah! and they keep slipping over and stuff |
15:56.20 | Lunessa | ... is it getting hot in here? |
15:56.26 | Fin | because of all the grease on the floor |
15:56.31 | cog|book | I hadn't looked at this window for a while 'till just then... |
15:56.39 | Fin | that reminds me, I'd better start getting that stuff on the floor before she gets here |
15:56.54 | Kaydeethree | unlock the bars "/bob lock", right click on the bar you want to page and play with the settings. I'm not in-game right now so I can't give you line-by-line instructions |
15:56.57 | Fin | Lunessa: go ooooon... |
15:57.04 | Fin | Lunessa: #2? |
15:57.10 | Lunessa | Way #2 is if he's gay. |
15:57.13 | Fin | oh |
15:57.22 | Kaydeethree | I was under the impression that bar paging is tied to the secure state driver and depends on what stance you're in. since mages don't have stances it'll revert to page #1 when you log back in |
15:57.24 | Lunessa | Then he's probably advising her on colors and styles. |
15:57.26 | GofG | Kaydeethree: that's what I'm doing, but what do you mean by why use paging for a non-stance class |
15:57.40 | GofG | Really? I thought bar paging was... much different. |
15:57.47 | GofG | Which is probably why... |
15:57.48 | GofG | bah afk |
15:57.57 | Lunessa | Take shopping out of the equation and things get more ... interesting. |
15:58.11 | Fin | I try to take shopping out the equation at every available opportunity |
15:58.16 | Kaydeethree | e.g. for rogues: getting in to stealth should change the bars, changing stances for warriors/forms for druids/getting into shadowform for priests/etc... |
15:58.39 | The_GoldFish | oh how I loathe stances |
15:58.41 | Fin | OK! I said I was going on my quest about 30 minutes ago and I'm still here |
15:59.10 | Fin | +space |
15:59.10 | zenzelezz | given the choice of questing and listening to Cairenn talk dirty... the choice is obvious |
15:59.21 | Cairenn | heh |
16:00.22 | Lunessa | Why do I concur so easily with zenzelezz 's last staement? |
16:00.28 | Kaydeethree | hm? beer's not in the fridge? |
16:05.12 | Lunessa | ... Never be a guild leader, guild banker, site admin, and only person who understands the macro system all at once. |

16:17.32 | *** join/#wowi-lounge JoshBorke (n=Josh@r54h77.res.gatech.edu) |
16:17.45 | GofG | There's a certain number of "pages" that have a set of buttons on them |
16:18.09 | GofG | Page ONe might be attack, fireball, frostshield,and arcane intellect |
16:18.17 | GofG | YOu can set an action bar to Page One |
16:18.26 | GofG | or Page Two, which would be a different set of buttons |
16:18.53 | GofG | Obviously that's wrong, but I can't find any documentation anywhere |
16:18.56 | Lunessa | Stances is for changing like a warrior, rogue stealth etc. |
16:19.01 | The_GoldFish | yeah I never got the whole, page thing |
16:19.09 | Lunessa | Paging is like hitting Shift+bar number in the default ui |
16:19.31 | Fin | ding! levelled after completing that quest |
16:19.31 | The_GoldFish | so far as I know, you can page to any bar from 1-6 |
16:19.37 | The_GoldFish | and then 7+ etc are reserved for stances |
16:19.40 | Fin | awesome reward also |
16:19.51 | zenzelezz | Fin: grats |
16:20.06 | zenzelezz | I still find it more *reward*ing to listen to Cairenn though |
16:20.20 | Fin | I didn't listen to Cairenn? |
16:20.24 | The_GoldFish | Fairly sure that's one quest reward which won't be getting DEd |
16:20.35 | The_GoldFish | boy would that make a mess... hehe |
16:20.38 | Fin | heh |
16:20.56 | GofG | The_GoldFish: So then, if I wanted two action bars, one with my spells and one with my tradeskills, how would I set that up? |
16:21.06 | Fin | oh, right, got it about the Cairenn listening thing |
16:21.12 | Cairenn | heh |
16:21.30 | zenzelezz | someone wake up TC, I don't want to have wasted that one |
16:21.30 | The_GoldFish | I dunno, I guess it depends what you have |
16:21.57 | The_GoldFish | I know a little about the original UI |
16:22.00 | Lunessa | GofG Just set up two bars to display. You don't need paging at all. |
16:22.26 | Fin | and hey, it's so nice to see that other people are confused by the whole paging thing as well as me |
16:22.29 | GofG | Lunessa: When I do that, when I put an ability on one of the bars, it shows up on the other bar too |
16:22.34 | Fin | it took me fucking months to understand how it worked |
16:22.35 | The_GoldFish | Yeah, I put my trade stuff on the action bars you can turn on in interface options |
16:22.40 | Fin | I get it now though |
16:22.43 | Fin | <-- clevr |
16:23.13 | GofG | Because, I believe, they are both on the same "page" |
16:23.35 | The_GoldFish | basically there are only 120 quickbar icons |
16:23.41 | Lunessa | GofG - Bars 1-6 shouldn't duplicate. Bar 7, 8, 9, & 10 will because they are the hidden "stance" bars in the default UI |
16:23.54 | GofG | Ah |
16:23.55 | GofG | So... |
16:24.00 | GofG | I get it |
16:24.17 | GofG | So what do I set the pages to? |
16:24.35 | Lunessa | IDK - UR BFF JILL? |
16:24.46 | Kaydeethree | you shouldn't have to mess with paging at all |
16:24.52 | Lunessa | Seriously though... You don't need to set ANY pages. |
16:24.54 | GofG | Okay, set them all to 0 then :) |
16:25.07 | The_GoldFish | well, it depends, you must be using some sort of addon, any of the original bar stuff shouldn't duplicate ever |
16:25.27 | Lunessa | Paging just duplicates the default UI's behavior of allowing you to SHIFT+# to get to a specific bar. |
16:25.44 | The_GoldFish | I have to press shift-1 every time I log in |
16:26.01 | The_GoldFish | cause I hate stances! |
16:26.02 | Lunessa | The_GoldFish: In the default UI, Attack and a couple other things are auto-added to the stance bars. |
16:26.33 | The_GoldFish | hmmm, that would make sense, I made a druid the other day and there were all these attacks on my bars |
16:26.39 | The_GoldFish | where as I'd never had that with eg my priest |
16:26.50 | The_GoldFish | but I guess druids have more stances |
16:26.52 | The_GoldFish | and melee |
16:27.01 | Lunessa | Right. |
16:27.51 | The_GoldFish | Either way, I had a right tizwaz with the default UI over stances |
16:29.21 | The_GoldFish | cause the first time I turned shadowform on, my bar full of spells suddenly turned into a bar full of potions - I'd hacked together a bar mod so I could use the other hidden bars (which I had no idea where used for stances) and there was seemingly no way to stop it doing it |
16:30.50 | Lunessa | Haha. That stance change for Shadowform is a relatively recent addition. Would have been handy while I was leveling my priest from 58-60 solo. |
16:31.40 | The_GoldFish | Yeah, well, like I say, I completely wasn't expecting it |
16:31.47 | The_GoldFish | frankly I have no need whatsoever for the stance change |
16:32.15 | The_GoldFish | but I didn't wanna dedicate 2 whole bars to being my default spell bar! |
16:32.30 | The_GoldFish | it pissed me off for at least a day till I worked out how to get around it |
16:33.07 | The_GoldFish | had to recode chunks of a modified bar mod I'd whipped up to jsut give additional bars (not just replace the whole UI, I liked - up until that stupid stance change - the default UI) |
16:33.36 | Thrae | Most Bar Addons give stance changes for Shadowform, so I guess Blizz thought it was a good idea. Most of the newer changes to the UI started out as very popular, fan-made addons. |
16:33.52 | Lunessa | I've been using action bar mods for so long, I occasionally forget what it's like to use the default. |
16:35.08 | The_GoldFish | I just would have appreciated the choice is all |
16:35.09 | The_GoldFish | heh |
16:35.52 | Thrae | The_GoldFish: You could use an Action Bar addon to stop the page swap ;) |
16:36.24 | The_GoldFish | I would if there was one that looked and worked exactly like the original ui in every *other* way :P |
16:36.43 | Kaydeethree | ct_barmod? |
16:36.44 | The_GoldFish | I look at most of the ui mods and think they're hidious! |
16:37.04 | The_GoldFish | I dunno, I might have tried it, I tried a few, gave up and hacked my own |

19:30.28 | Bam__ | tem: yes I do and are you saying my question is answeredd? |
19:30.52 | Tem | so there's nothing stopping you from just pulling the old ones if you still need them |
19:31.08 | Tem | however, I'm pretty confident they were replaced with C functions which are mentioned in Iriel's thread |
19:31.25 | Tem | (that being said, I haven't looked myself) |
19:31.33 | Iriel | They are/have been |
19:31.36 | Iriel | The PTR is up |
19:32.47 | Bam__ | hmm... I used them to implement visual feedback for SecureActionButtons... I don't see how I can get that information now if Blizzard does not provide a "hook" into their C implementation |
19:34.12 | Iriel | You can still call them |
19:34.30 | Iriel | They're just not written in lua any more |
19:34.41 | Iriel | Or are you saying they're gone completely? |
19:34.46 | Bam__ | yes they are |
19:34.51 | Iriel | I'll admit I wasn't paying quite as much attention as I could've been |
19:35.08 | Bam__ | I scanned the global environment for changes.. those function no longer exist |
19:35.27 | Iriel | SecureCmdOptionParse is the new one, I think |
19:35.49 | Iriel | The macro text one, however, may be gone |
19:36.00 | Iriel | You can post on the 2.0 changes thread requested it be retained |
19:36.07 | Iriel | 2.2 changes, even |
19:36.30 | Bam__ | EU account sadly |
19:36.45 | Bam__ | hence why I ask here :) |
19:38.36 | Bam__ | but basically what I would like to know is if Blizzard wants to support addons providing visual feedback for macros and macrotext... obviously they don't need it themselves now since they only use SecureActionButton for type="action" |
19:38.58 | *** join/#wowi-lounge Kaydeethree (n=kd3@host-69-59-74-241.nctv.com) |
19:45.41 | Iriel | I think blizzard's approach is that they want to provide highly optimized C++ implementations of visual feedback for macros |
19:45.54 | Iriel | 2.2 is substantially improved both in terms of functionality AND performance from 2.1 |
19:47.20 | Bam__ | yes, that's also a great idea for their own UI... but it sort of cuts off our ability to code addons that provide this for buttons that don't have type="action" |
19:47.47 | Industrial | Can I drag/resize chat frames to fit my layout with lua with setpoint? |
19:48.06 | Industrial | or will it reset |
19:48.29 | zenzelezz | I did it to mine anyhow |
19:48.43 | zenzelezz | but I don't know if it sticks across sessions |
19:48.50 | zenzelezz | I put it in an OnLoad |
19:48.59 | Tem | Bam__, I think you'll run into more serious barriers to making buttons that fake being action buttons than macro feedback |
19:49.27 | Tem | plus it's a whole lot of effort for _very_ little payoff |
19:49.40 | Bam__ | Tem: I have it working pretty well though... only the visual feedback is an issue |
19:49.45 | Tem | what do you gain from not using type="action"? |

19:50.28 | Tem | there are other problems, like showing cooldowns |
19:50.30 | Bam__ | much more customizability in terms of state changes and not being limited to the 120 action slots |
19:50.42 | Tem | how do you figure? |
19:50.55 | Tem | any customizability you have for actions you have for spells |
19:50.57 | Bam__ | cooldown is not an issue if I can just know what action is "pending" |

19:53.24 | Tem | (especially dragging off of your button) |
19:53.26 | Bam__ | drag and drop is problematic yes... but doable... at least when not in combat |
19:53.34 | Tem | additionally, they wouldn't changable in combat |
19:53.39 | Tem | yeah... |

19:57.15 | Tem|AFK | Bam__, good luck. I hope the headaches this project causes you are less than I anticipate |
19:57.33 | sag_ich_nicht | depending on who has PvP flags enabled/disabled, the aura does not afflict other players, basicially someone with pvp flag can have his aura afflict other players, but someone with it off can not afflict people with it on |
19:57.34 | sag_ich_nicht | now |
19:57.35 | Bam__ | Tem|AFK: lol thanks |
19:57.39 | sag_ich_nicht | this is not a bug in itself |
19:57.43 | sag_ich_nicht | BUT |
19:57.49 | sag_ich_nicht | this shouldn't be happening on pvp servers |
19:57.52 | sag_ich_nicht | because that's just dumb |
19:57.53 | sag_ich_nicht | :O |
19:58.02 | sag_ich_nicht | (might as well be a flaw in the pvp flag system, not in the aura system) |
19:58.05 | sag_ich_nicht | same problem tho |
19:58.05 | sag_ich_nicht | :P |
19:58.17 | Tem|AFK | people that aren't flagged won't aoe buff people that are |

19:59.17 | Iriel | Yeah, I can't understand why that's wrong |
19:59.23 | sag_ich_nicht | Tem|AFK: yes |
19:59.28 | sag_ich_nicht | but on a pvp server, the pvp flag is pointless |
19:59.31 | Iriel | A "PvP server" just controls how much effect you have on your flag |
19:59.35 | Iriel | Not really |
19:59.39 | Iriel | Orgrimmar, for example |
19:59.46 | Iriel | I'm not flagged there |

20:02.46 | Cowgra | what fun is it when lvl 70 jerkoff mage hangs out in hillsbrad? |

20:03.52 | Cowgra | technically you have a choice about what starting area you level in although admittedly it does take some work to go to another one. |

20:04.40 | Cowgra | i'm just playing the antagonist. i do and always have played on pvp servers |
20:04.50 | Iriel | I play on both types |
20:04.51 | zenzelezz | to be fair, WoW has a fairly robust PvP system |
20:05.27 | deltron | pvp was extremely boring when WoW first came out |
20:05.28 | Bam__ | I like to control when my heart rate goes berzerk :D |
20:05.35 | sag_ich_nicht | zenzelezz: except pvp servers are pve servers with forceflagging in some areas. |
20:05.47 | zenzelezz | sag_ich_nicht: and they don't claim to be anything else |
20:06.18 | sag_ich_nicht | you should be flagged everywhere, the guards are enough already imho |
20:06.44 | zenzelezz | if you want to be flagged, just flag yourself |
20:06.47 | sag_ich_nicht | maybe move guards in green areas then ;) |
20:06.52 | sag_ich_nicht | zenzelezz i am |
20:07.01 | Cowgra | imagine having everyone flagged in shattrath |
20:07.08 | zenzelezz | I can't quite picture guards all through Barrens |
20:07.14 | sag_ich_nicht | shat is sanctuary |
20:07.17 | zenzelezz | just to let the lowbies get a grasp of the game |
20:07.20 | sag_ich_nicht | zenzelezz: i am talking about spawning guards |
20:07.42 | deltron | barrens is so open compared to alliance towns |
20:07.57 | zenzelezz | comparing Barrens to a town is a bit misrepresenting |
20:08.03 | deltron | ok |
20:08.10 | deltron | then any alliance controlled zone |
20:08.36 | The_GoldFish | you can walk straight into UC through the sewer the bats fly in |
20:08.47 | sag_ich_nicht | having guards spawn when you attack a player in a "protected" zone would also fit the reason for the protection better imho |
20:08.53 | sag_ich_nicht | then just being unable to attack |
20:09.13 | zenzelezz | would be pretty silly after a while |
20:09.24 | zenzelezz | "hey, there's those magic guards that follow this guy in stealth" |
20:10.07 | sag_ich_nicht | no |
20:10.50 | sag_ich_nicht | it's just "hey this area is protected by the [faction] and under it's control if you attack that guy he yells for help and you are crushed by the combined force of the [faction]" |
20:11.31 | zenzelezz | I'd still find it stupid :-) |
20:11.32 | The_GoldFish | I think they expect other high level players to do it or something |
20:11.40 | The_GoldFish | but who'd go to the barrens |
20:11.49 | sag_ich_nicht | The_GoldFish that's exactly what should happen |
20:11.52 | sag_ich_nicht | but what isn't happening |
20:12.19 | sag_ich_nicht | because, except for servers like dark iron where you can find "real" gamers, there are too many casual, lazy people |
20:12.20 | sag_ich_nicht | >< |
20:12.41 | The_GoldFish | some hunter and warrior ran into silvermoon the other day, they were exploiting the east side AH's side steps to avoid all the guards |
20:12.59 | zenzelezz | there's nothing I hate more than the people that whine about those of us that don't care about PvP... "zomg horde at <...> !!! were r u 70s???" |
20:13.13 | sag_ich_nicht | no |

20:14.04 | The_GoldFish | they were only like, 60ish we think |
20:14.07 | Iriel | The only real problem I have with WoW PvP is there's no enforcement of honor |
20:14.08 | zenzelezz | my first 60 was on PvP because of friends there, and I didn't give a damn about PvP |
20:14.20 | The_GoldFish | we (group of 41s) took them down a few times |
20:14.25 | Iriel | so 3 L70's can happily take out my L40 with impunity, again and again |
20:14.34 | Iriel | Sure, it's war, but there's no honor in that kind of encounter |
20:14.42 | sag_ich_nicht | Iriel war has no honor. |
20:14.47 | The_GoldFish | and there literally isn't any honour in it |
20:14.48 | The_GoldFish | heh |
20:14.53 | sag_ich_nicht | it's a brutal, inhuman action |

20:16.36 | sag_ich_nicht | correct zenzelezz |
20:16.48 | sag_ich_nicht | the honor was AFTER the battle |
20:17.08 | zenzelezz | but people don't play games like WoW for realism; if they wanted that they'd play something like Armed Assault |
20:17.09 | Iriel | But there was also who was involved in the battle |
20:17.33 | Iriel | (Differentiating 'battles' from 'pillaging') |
20:17.48 | sag_ich_nicht | when you were found to have acted dishonorable by your shogun |

20:18.44 | sag_ich_nicht | (that's not completely accurate, i know, but i cba to go into the details) |
20:18.47 | Iriel | The point made by zenz is a good one though |
20:18.55 | Iriel | The 'war' is simply a justification of conflict |
20:19.06 | Iriel | Within which we hopefully get challenge, excitement, etc |

20:21.42 | sag_ich_nicht | anyone who disagrees that UO PvP was godly, was a bad player :P |

20:22.18 | Iriel | (Actually there's D&DO and LOTRO as well, but those dont really count given time played) |
20:22.52 | Iriel | I have no sense for the UO community, was it as broadly popular in terms of demographic as WoW |
20:22.58 | Iriel | As I think that's a large part of the problem |
20:23.04 | Iriel | or 'problem' |
20:23.10 | Iriel | depending on how recently i've been ganked |
20:23.51 | sag_ich_nicht | Iriel: considering UO was the "first" MMO |
20:24.03 | sag_ich_nicht | it had a pretty big community for the time back then |
20:24.13 | Iriel | Im talking breadth tho, not size |
20:24.47 | sag_ich_nicht | it had :) |
20:24.56 | Iriel | As the 'first' MMO, I suspect there were a much larger percentage of folks from traditional RPG backgrounds with a much greater sense of what was 'right' |
20:24.59 | sag_ich_nicht | you had a lot more hardcore gamers back then of course |
20:25.13 | Iriel | beyond simply 'whatever I want to do is right' obviously |
20:25.19 | sag_ich_nicht | there were a lot of dicks |
20:25.21 | sag_ich_nicht | trust me |
20:25.21 | sag_ich_nicht | :D |
20:26.03 | sag_ich_nicht | in UO you had safezones too |
20:26.25 | sag_ich_nicht | you had guards, and you could actually yell for them |
20:27.02 | zenzelezz | I wonder how many new AO players I saw get tricked into attacking friendly guards |
20:27.03 | The_GoldFish | great so people could run 2 accounts and call them away from their attack, hehe |
20:27.36 | sag_ich_nicht | Iriel: UO had a full player loot system, so the economy was a bit different :) |
20:27.45 | sag_ich_nicht | which affected PvP quite a bit |

20:31.36 | sag_ich_nicht | because he might call all his friends and you'd lose all your items :) |
20:31.40 | The_GoldFish | I suppose it was more of a standoff |
20:32.29 | sag_ich_nicht | well |
20:32.43 | sag_ich_nicht | yes, it was a motivation and a demotivation at the same time |
20:32.52 | sag_ich_nicht | it made you think before you attacked someone :) |
20:35.45 | Iriel | That's the tricky tradeoff in wow |
20:35.48 | The_GoldFish | and to be clear, there are no 'rules' as such with PvP, you just attack someone or you don't - it's the players who do the ganking etc, the idea that "hey, wait, I'm really just being a dick" doesn't cross their mind |
20:35.56 | Iriel | the lack of 'death severity' makes it a much more approachable and pleasant game |
20:36.18 | Iriel | but it also leads to griefing being much more tolerated |
20:36.44 | sag_ich_nicht | correct |
20:38.01 | The_GoldFish | so far as I can tell, on PvE servers, the majority of any half decent PvP happens in the instanced PvP areas, and everywhere else is gank city |

20:38.46 | The_GoldFish | mainly because no one cares |
20:40.32 | The_GoldFish | and afterall, why should they |
20:40.43 | Bam__ | Iriel: I think the "saving" function for me is QueryCastSequence... it still exists and is not called at all by Blizzard's code... so I wonder if it is intended for addons to use of if it's an oversight that it's still there :) |
20:41.08 | Iriel | It could just be a nod to the community from slouken |
20:41.14 | Iriel | he leaves useful things exposed often |
20:44.43 | Bam__ | I do wonder a bit though.. if the entire visual feedback computation has been implemented in C, then there is actually two versions of it now... the C one and the Lua one that is used for controlling sequences when actually casting |
20:44.53 | Bam__ | that's a code smell if nothing else :P |
20:46.34 | Iriel | most of the lua one is gone, IIRC |
20:47.31 | Bam__ | ExecuteCastSequence still remains and is the one that actually determines what is to be cast based on the CastSequenceManager |
20:48.14 | Bam__ | so I guess there must be some duplicated logic in the C code |
20:49.09 | sag_ich_nicht | Bam__ have you checked on the PTR too? :P |
20:49.23 | Bam__ | yea it's the PTR code I am talking about |
20:49.57 | Bam__ | which I suppose may not be finished yet |
20:50.38 | sag_ich_nicht | oic |
20:51.16 | Bam__ | I've really had my head up the arse of the part of the Lua code lol |
20:51.32 | Bam__ | excuse my French :P |
20:52.07 | Iriel | If you can summarize your questions around duplication and extension, email them to iriel@iriel.org, and ping me here to remind me when you have, I can post them in the forum for yuo |
20:52.15 | Iriel | or possibly answer what I can via email first 8-) |
20:52.23 | Bam__ | ok :) |
20:54.47 | Bam__ | I cannot be 100% sure of course... since I don't know the C code :P |
20:55.00 | Iriel | Of course -- that's why we ask slouken stuff 8-) |
20:55.29 | Bam__ | Slouken: send me the C code and I will debug it for you :D |

20:57.31 | Bam__ | yea well... part of what I would like to know is also how far they want to extend the support for non-actionslot buttons really |
20:58.50 | Iriel | I suspect a practical solution to full support for all of their types would be encouraged |
20:59.21 | ckknight | why won't he give me what I want, though? *whimper* |
20:59.35 | Bam__ | I would love to see then implement a button like ActionBarButton that supports all types |

21:04.35 | Kaso | Ooh i like some of the lua codes snippits at iriel.org |
21:04.37 | Iriel | The event ones are tricky because they're soo 'established' |
21:04.41 | Kaso | like the subframe cache thingy |
21:04.59 | Iriel | Kaso: They need to be updated, the ace folks had a couple of good ideas for improvements. |
21:05.02 | ckknight | Iriel: so what about the other two? |
21:05.05 | Iriel | Kaso: but thanks. |
21:05.09 | ckknight | I at least want reverse status bars |
21:05.24 | ckknight | currently I have to use massive hacks to accomplish it |
21:05.26 | Iriel | ckknight: The SetTexCoord one likely depends heavily on the underlying graphics libraries, it may not be that easy, I dunno |
21:05.33 | ckknight | yea, I figured |
21:05.42 | Iriel | ckknight: As for the status bars, I suspect that's just purely a time/effort thing.. I can't think of a reason beyond that for not doing it. |
21:05.53 | ckknight | reverse status bars seems the easiest |
21:05.58 | ckknight | *sigh* |
21:06.00 | ckknight | I wantses it |
21:06.18 | Iriel | The trick there is probably to make a really cool UI using the hack version, so cool that blizzard implement it themselves, and thus need the functionality |
21:07.26 | ckknight | it's been done! |

22:43.04 | ScytheBlade1 | Okay, dead honest question |
22:43.11 | ScytheBlade1 | I ask thinking I know the right answer, but correct me |
22:43.13 | |Jelly| | I'm a guy iRL. |
22:43.22 | ScytheBlade1 | Does addon memory usage have anything to do with actual performance? |
22:43.40 | Iriel | Not directly no. |
22:43.41 | |Jelly| | As I understand it, not unless you have a horribly low amount of ram. |
22:43.48 | ScytheBlade1 | Didn't think so |
22:43.59 | Iriel | There's really two things that are significant, and they boil down to the same one |
22:44.24 | Iriel | WHEN garbage collection has to run a full sweep, it takes longer if you have more memory in use. |
22:44.35 | ScytheBlade1 | Right |
22:44.49 | ScytheBlade1 | But didn't the incremental GC largely fix that? |
22:44.50 | Iriel | The volume of memory allocation drives how often GC has to happen |
22:44.57 | ScytheBlade1 | I understand that it can be bad regardless |
22:45.05 | Iriel | So really it all boils down to not allocating lots of memory you dont need |
22:45.11 | ScytheBlade1 | Hmm |
22:45.17 | ScytheBlade1 | That's... really weird. |
22:45.22 | Iriel | Incremental GC offsets most of the problem of large amounts of in use memory as long as you dont allocate too much |
22:45.28 | ScytheBlade1 | Nothing I didn't know, just... odd. |
22:45.30 | Iriel | That's why GC churn is bad |
22:45.35 | ScytheBlade1 | Yeah |
22:45.38 | Iriel | But memory use is kind of neutral |
22:45.49 | |Jelly| | Iriel: Could you elaborate on "not allocating lots of memory you don't use" ? I've never fully understoof GC process but I didn't think you could pick and choose memory allocation anymore. |
22:46.09 | Iriel | Jelly: Suppose you have a function that runs every frame and needs a temporary table |
22:46.20 | ScytheBlade1 | |Jelly|, think of allocating 2MB in a variable and setting it to nil. Often. |
22:46.27 | Iriel | Jelly: You could allocate a new temporary table every time it's called, that'll create lots of objects |
22:46.37 | |Jelly| | And own your computer. Roger. |
22:46.38 | Iriel | Jelly: Or you could use one temporary table and re-use it between calls, that wont |
22:47.09 | Iriel | Jelly: All of those throw-away tables are memory you dont use, once you're done with it |

23:08.55 | Corrodias | sunfury bow, right? |
23:09.10 | Guillotine | oh, MM |
23:09.13 | [dRaCo] | oh, sorry |
23:09.14 | Guillotine | I read BM for some reason |
23:09.14 | Guillotine | nm |
23:09.25 | [dRaCo] | weapon as in axe or polearm or something |
23:09.26 | Corrodias | |Jelly|: if i don't target anything, it says "you have no target", so it's not trying to cast it on myself |
23:09.48 | Shirik | because |
23:09.53 | Shirik | you need [target=player] before reset |
23:09.55 | |Jelly| | *shrug* I can't explain it but I can tell you that's the problem. |
23:09.55 | Corrodias | and it STILL doesn't reset, even after the 3 seconds |
23:10.12 | Corrodias | okay, i'll give shirik's thing a whirl |
23:10.49 | |Jelly| | Shirik: How would that help? In the end, he's still wanting to heal himself and tap something else in the same sequence. Unless I missed something in the RTFPN. |
23:10.51 | Corrodias | okay, that works as expected, and yeah, it resets the timer even if the macro doesn't -do- anything |
23:11.07 | Corrodias | that's rather disappointing |
23:11.11 | Shirik | it doesn't do what he wants |
23:11.17 | |Jelly| | Oh, ok. |
23:11.17 | Shirik | but it corrects the problem that he was referring to |
23:11.18 | Guillotine | [dRaCo] legacy I think |
23:11.25 | |Jelly| | lol. ok. |
23:11.45 | Corrodias | so my bubble macro is impractical, if not completely impossible |
23:11.55 | [dRaCo] | Guillotine: hm, thanks, was the only one I could think of, too. |
23:12.16 | Bam__ | Corrodias: what do you want it to do exactly? |
23:12.18 | Corrodias | i didn't want to put Divine Protection and Blessing of Protection on different buttons. i REALLY hate doing that. |
23:12.45 | Corrodias | thus, i wanted to be able to hold alt to cast it on myself as usual, but i want it to use DP instead of BoP if it's available, which apparently is not possible. |
23:12.46 | |Jelly| | Modifier or Right/Left Button |
23:12.54 | Corrodias | clicking on bubbles = bad paladin |
23:13.12 | Corrodias | or rather, i don't click on time-sensitive abilities |
23:13.20 | Corrodias | i'd feel like a klutz doing that |
23:13.21 | Bam__ | yes, you cannot make any logic that "tests" availability of spells |
23:13.28 | |Jelly| | So you completely didn't see the beginning of that? "***MODIFIER*** or..." |
23:13.41 | Corrodias | that was my original idea, |Jelly|. that's what the macro is trying to do. |
23:14.14 | Corrodias | hold alt for self-cast, use DP then use BoP unless 5 minutes pass without the spell being successfully cast. |
23:14.30 | |Jelly| | Which you can't do. |
23:14.38 | |Jelly| | [18:13]<Bam__>yes, you cannot make any logic that "tests" availability of spells |
23:14.44 | Corrodias | exactly |
23:14.59 | Corrodias | so the modifier idea isn't going to work as i had hoped |
23:15.34 | *** part/#wowi-lounge Cowgra (n=Cowgra@c-69-242-237-189.hsd1.ar.comcast.net) |
23:15.52 | Bam__ | no, but you can still get two spells on one button if you want |
23:16.07 | Corrodias | yeah, if i never want to BoP myself >_< |
23:16.38 | Bam__ | well I mean without any castsequence... just using modifiers |
23:17.00 | Guillotine | you could have something like clicking button=BoP, alt clicking=DP self, shift clicking=BoP self |
23:17.05 | Bam__ | it's not what you wanted exactly... but at least it's only one button |
23:18.14 | Bam__ | personally I just don't find it any easier to remember all those modifier combinations :P |
23:19.11 | Bam__ | let me see... was this spell ALT-SHIFT or was it ALT-CTRL-SHIFT or .... ? :P |
23:19.17 | Guillotine | eh, I have a couple like that |
23:19.24 | Guillotine | all healing spells are alt-clicking someone |
23:19.28 | Guillotine | curing debuffs is shift clicking |
23:19.30 | Guillotine | pretty easy to remember |
23:19.40 | Guillotine | e.g. alt-left=regrowth |
23:19.49 | Bam__ | if you can group it like that, I guess it is |
23:20.03 | Guillotine | just make all self casts be alt+spell |
23:20.11 | Guillotine | and secondary self casts be shift+spell |
23:20.42 | Corrodias | unfortunately, shift+key is assigned to another bar entirely |
23:20.54 | Corrodias | but no matter, i'll just have to click on my character after hitting that key if i want to cast BoP on myself |
23:21.17 | Bam__ | and in patch 2.2 you can extend it to LEFT-SHIFT-LEFT-ALT-RIGHT-CTRL :D |
23:36.11 | bleeter | lol some idiot sold his account on ebay, then used his name in a newspaper article about selling wow accounts |
