00:00.13foxlitHah :)
00:00.24Temfoxlit, oh I see
00:00.31TemI wouldn't worry about that, really
00:00.46Temtravel form, roots and NG, all show "usable" indoors
00:00.56foxlitWhich is silly, unfortunately :(
00:01.00Temfoxlit, was it you working on OneRing?
00:01.06foxlityes
00:01.11TemI saw the video earlier today
00:01.16Temlooks very cool
00:01.28foxlit:)
00:01.46Temdunno what I'd use it for, but eye candy doesn't always need a purpose :)
00:02.03foxlitThere's always that list at http://spirit-dreams.net/or/ :)
00:02.23foxlitI'd guess food and potions apply to anyone
00:02.59TemI click those, but if I could get used to them in a ring, that might be nice
00:03.14Temalso, I'd love to get fire/frost ward off my bars
00:03.17foxlitFinished my three main options so far; so I'm just a name, keybinding storage, and a few more demo rings away from an actual release :)
00:03.22Tembuffs, too
00:03.33Temi can has beta?

00:03.43Temmy druid would like to play with the shapeshift ring
00:03.45foxlitYou can has cake!
00:03.49Temlie
00:03.53foxlit"Features
00:03.53foxlitCake. Lots of cake."
00:04.02TemDelicious cake?
00:04.55foxlitMakes you Very Happy, too.
00:05.01kd3but if the cake is a lie, does that mean the one ring is a lie too?
00:05.04kd3vaporware!
00:05.12foxlitEternal alpha, tbh
00:05.24Temfoxlit, so how does it work?  ring appears on keydown and casts on keyup?
00:05.37MentalPoweryup
00:05.41MentalPowerit uses the pie template
00:05.44TemI'm glad to see someone finally using Iriel's pie template :)
00:06.24foxlitThe pie template is actually pretty clever.
00:06.30Temof course it is
00:06.32TemIriel wrote it
00:06.38foxlitYou could actually do keybind-click rather than keybind-keyup to cast
00:06.58Temso does the entire screen become the menu?
00:07.20foxlitThere's an invisible button of obscene size
00:07.38Tem*nod* that's what I figured
00:07.56TemI really like the finess you put into the animations
00:08.00Temlooks very clean
00:09.31foxlitIt's amazing how far sin() can get you, really

00:31.29foxlitmana shield is blue
00:31.35foxlitice barrier should be blue
00:31.37foxlitice block is blue
00:31.46foxlitHow many shades of blue are there?!
00:33.21Temloads
00:34.38Temfoxlit, it's still useful, though, because you wouldn't put many of those spells on the same ring
00:35.00foxlitWhy not? :)
00:35.11foxlitThey're all, logically, "zomgithurtsgivemesomehpabsorbtion"
00:35.43Temiceblock, mana sheild and ice barrier are spells you need to be able to cast _really_ quickly

00:36.50Temand hitting a keybind, positioning your mouse, and then releasing it-- even if I'm a twich gaming master-- is just too much effort for such important spells
00:37.42foxlitThat's really what MOUSE4/MOUSE5 are for :)
00:37.49foxlitThen again, you need a mouse with those
00:38.02TemMouse4 is autorun for me

00:38.51ScytheBlade1~fauxscrollframe
00:38.54purlextra, extra, read all about it, fauxscrollframe is one of the first Lua/XML systems written by Blizzard for the WoW user interface. Its learning curve resembles an inverted L, and Zootfizzle hates it. Along with cogs, it is in the top five on his "dead to me" list.
00:38.58ScytheBlade1Hmm what was that one that -- haha, that was it
00:39.20ScytheBlade1purl is just a bit laggy
00:39.24TemFSF is evil
00:39.26Tem_very_ evil
00:39.30foxlitFSF works :)
00:39.31Shirikrofl
00:39.38ShirikI totally agree with purl 100% there
00:39.42ScytheBlade1Shirik: ~factinfo it!

00:39.50foxlit"will use again"
00:39.54Shirikha
00:40.11ShirikCidan wanted to use it once
00:40.17ShirikI stabbed him until he agreed not to
00:40.38Temfoxlit, if Zoot hates it, expect it to go away and come back awesome
00:40.50Temfor an example of this, see the InterfaceOptionsFrame
00:41.10foxlitI'm sure zoot has more interesting fish to fry
00:41.43DARKGuythis might seem a stupid question, but what's the best 2-h weapon for a warrior?
00:42.11DARKGuyI decided to go 2-h for a while from dual-wield
00:42.44TemSwords?
00:42.50DARKGuypreferably
00:43.03TemI'm just guessing that a sword will be the "best"
00:43.21DARKGuyI've seen powerful polearms tho :/
00:43.30DARKGuybut warrior with polearm = more pikeman to me

00:45.35laggerare there any other ways a totem can "die" besides UNIT_DIED and SPELL_CAST_SUCCESS (totemic call)?

00:46.45artencehow do i totally delete my addons?
00:46.48ScytheBlade1And gives you some mana back
00:46.56ScytheBlade1artence: you remove them from the Interface\Addons folder
00:46.56Shirikgo to your interface/addons folder and delete them?
00:47.03artencethat's the problem
00:47.07ScytheBlade1Vista?
00:47.09artenceunder the interface/addons
00:47.14artencecosmos doesnt show
00:47.22ScytheBlade1Vista?
00:47.26artenceyea
00:47.39ShirikUsers/<your username>/AppData/Locals/VirtualStore/Program Files/World of Warcraft/Interface/Addons
00:47.40ScytheBlade1Quick, someone! Spit out the full proper path! I can't remember it!
00:47.43ScytheBlade1^
00:47.50Shirikafter that, uninstall wow
00:47.51ScytheBlade1What Shirik said. Delete them from there.
00:47.52artenceand i tried installing other mods, under interface/addons, it wont work
00:47.56Shirikreinstall to a better folder
00:48.04ScytheBlade1Don't need to reinstall :P
00:48.15ScytheBlade1"Learn 2 Blizzard game!"
00:48.25ShirikI wrote up a post on this I believe
00:48.43ScytheBlade1artence: your addons are installed in the place that Shirik said above... remove them from there and you're good to go
00:48.54laggerhm if i wanted to see if a shaman dropped a totem thats not grounding should i look at SPELL_SUMMON and then do a search on the spellname to see if it contains totem and grounding

00:49.28artencehow do you install other addons then? i tried extracting them to interface/addons doesnt work. i got cosmos too
00:50.04Shirikread that post
00:50.11ScytheBlade1Take a read at Shirik's link there
00:50.16ScytheBlade1It should explain what you need to know
00:50.27Shirik3 ways to fix your problem
00:51.45ShirikI think option 2 is the easiest for you, though I don't like it
00:52.10artenceso reinstalling the whole WoW to another directory would help? is it worth the time though?
00:52.17ScytheBlade1You don't have to reinstall
00:52.20ScytheBlade1You can just simply move it
00:52.36ScytheBlade1That'll work just as well (though you may have to make new shortcuts to WoW.exe)
00:53.00Shirikthat will have the interesting side effect of losing your addons and settings
00:53.09Shirikwhich you have stated is your desire right now
00:53.19Shirikon my laptop, I installed wow to C:\Games\World of Warcraft
00:53.19artenceyea
00:53.35artencei'll work on it. thanks guys

00:54.18ScytheBlade1Shirik: that's actually a pretty good post (despite your line about it "catching programmers off guard" made me want to stab you)
00:55.07ShirikI could have used the post to yell at stupid programmers
00:55.08foxlitOh wow, they changed how iceblock works

00:55.39artencewell another
00:55.45ScytheBlade1Shirik: fair enough :P
00:55.47ScytheBlade1artence: shoot
00:55.50artencewhat stuff do i move?
00:55.57ScytheBlade1Just the WoW folder and everything in it.
00:56.16artenceopen file location, ctrl a. copy, then paste?
00:56.24ScytheBlade1Nah
00:56.26Shirikno not copy
00:56.27ScytheBlade1Do it to the folder
00:56.31ScytheBlade1Not the contents of the folder
00:56.34artenceo yea drag and drop?
00:56.35Shirikcut or just drag the folder
00:56.40ScytheBlade1And yeah, cut, not copy
00:56.47ScytheBlade1You're /moving/ it to another location, not copying it
00:56.55artenceyea sorry about that
00:57.18ScytheBlade1You can make a new folder and move the contents into the new folder
00:57.25ScytheBlade1Or you can just move the folder to a new place

01:45.55Kasoif its not this ^ could you show the code from whence it came.
01:45.58PsG-1if it's a frame then it's a region
01:46.11Shiriktrue, but p->q does not mean q->p
01:46.16Shirikit needs to be a region, not a frame

01:49.58kd3just got added in 2.4.2... we first saw it in interface diffs of the globalstrings
01:50.10artencewhat mod displays your hp and mana, as well as the targets hp and mana % or #'s beside or on their bars?
01:50.17Kasothats pretty interesting, save a bunch of code i guess
01:50.48kd3artence, the default UI can do that... just about all of the other unitframe mods I'm aware of have an option to display hp/mana info/% on bars
01:51.12artencethe default ui mod displays then ON the bars?
01:51.13Kasowhy |4 though? seems an odd choice
01:51.18artenceor beside
01:51.19Kasois there not |1 |2 |3 ?

02:09.30Shirikso I spent the whole day at work today putting together this complex circuit because my batteries weren't being stable
02:09.42Shirikevery time I hit the "connect" button on the computer, the voltage jumped up 2V
02:10.01Shirikafter like 8 hours I realized it's unstable because I have the serial cable in backwards :(
02:10.07MentalPowerlol!
02:10.13MentalPowerI'm sorry Shirik
02:10.14kd3oops?
02:10.31ShirikI was trying everything
02:10.46ShirikFirst I thought it was because we were using 3x AA batteries which makes 4.5V, but the chips were expecting 5V
02:10.59Shirikthen I thought it was because of the sudden spikes in voltage I needed to add some voltage regulation
02:11.22Shirikso stupid

02:15.35Kasoluasockets downloading at 7.4MB/s thats crazy
02:19.24cogwheelthat's faster than vista copies files....
02:19.30ScytheBlade1lol
02:19.33ScytheBlade1That was a low blow ;)
02:19.42cogwheeli speak from experience :(
02:20.01cogwheeland i'll be the first to defend vista in a lot of areas
02:20.07Kasoheh
02:20.07cogwheeljust so we're clear :P
02:20.10Shirikit's kinda true
02:20.24ScytheBlade1I'll buy vista
02:20.28Kasothat's downloading from bbc iplayer (for iphones) using my lua script
02:20.28ScytheBlade1... once I get money
02:20.30cogwheelbetween my two hard drives i usually get between 4 and 6 MB/s
02:20.31ShirikI'll download vista
02:20.39Shiriklegally!
02:20.50Kasodownloaded a 230 meg video in like half a min
02:20.53Kasoit was awesome
02:20.56ShirikI actually have two licenses of vista now :/ are they transferrable
02:20.57Shirikheh
02:21.10cogwheelonly retail versions afaik
02:21.12Kasomy friend has 10 vista licences, <3 msdnaa
02:21.21ShirikI have a retail copy and msdn
02:21.31cogwheelthen you could give your retail copy away i believe
02:21.42Arrowmasteri dont think ill ever use vista on a home computer
02:21.57Arrowmasterill switch to linux or osx first
02:22.06Shirikdo you have a reason? :)
02:22.24cogwheelbesides "because it's microsoft" :P
02:22.41Shirikerk, critical battery brb
02:22.45Arrowmasterhonestly games are the only thing keeping me on xp
02:22.46ScytheBlade1cogwheel: "because it's linux"? ;)

02:22.57purlexecutes killall -TERM ScytheBlade1
02:23.02cogwheelScytheBlade1: but then he should've switched already :P
02:23.06Shirikhow suitable
02:23.48Arrowmasterthe drm crap is one of the reasons i wont switch to vista, even if it never effects me its still there
02:23.54cogwheelthough if i had read that wrong it would've reminded me of http://xkcd.com/424/
02:24.05cogwheelArrowmaster: that's irrational
02:24.08*** join/#wowuidev SinusPi (n=sinus@aaqn54.neoplus.adsl.tpnet.pl)
02:25.07cogwheelShirik asked for a /reason/ :P
02:25.13Arrowmasteri like having control of my computer, not it having control over what i do
02:25.14XuerianArrowmaster: That's one of the reasons I'm avoiding it. They built DRM so deep that it affects sound and network, which disturbs me. I can't play DX10 games anyway, so there's no reason for me to switch to it.
02:25.45ScytheBlade1No, the DRM doesn't touch the network. The "lul DRM slows my network down" came from optimized playback
02:26.02ScytheBlade1You play a video, it slows other things to keep the framerate
02:26.14Arrowmasterwhat kinda video?
02:26.27XuerianScytheBlade1: Ahh, my bad. Well, that does make sense.
02:26.31ScytheBlade1Heck if I know. I don't have vista ;)
02:26.40ScytheBlade1Xuerian: the internet 'media' is horrible ;)
02:26.43Arrowmasterbecause if you have a decent computer it shouldnt need to
02:26.53ShirikScytheBlade1: The media is horrible, period :P
02:26.56XuerianScytheBlade1: I'd go as far as to say --
02:26.58Xuerianyeah, that
02:27.04XuerianExcept wowi.
02:27.05ScytheBlade1Unless that computer is doing other things!
02:27.08XuerianWowi is pure <3 Cairenn.
02:27.09cogwheeland people with decent computers run vista just fine...
02:27.21Shirikmy laptop is running vista amzingly
02:27.25MentalPowermainly Full HD video that takes serious muscle to render
02:27.28Shirikand I only paid about $1000 for it

02:29.50Shirikmy quit messages don't look anything like something someone can say :)
02:29.52Shirikfor that reason
02:30.00Shirikhowever someone has a quit message that confuses my client to hell
02:30.06Shirikit thinks it's a netsplit
02:30.53Arrowmasteri wonder if trying to install access07 while i still have access03 installed will cause any problems
02:31.04ShirikI wonder if it will let you
02:31.25Arrowmasteri know some of my schools computers have both
02:32.06MentalPowerCorrodias: thats... interesting...
02:32.11cogwheelLUA
02:32.11krkacogwheel: Lua is not an acronym. It is a Portuguese word that means moon.
02:33.57MentalPowerdid someone already tell the folks at #infobot about purl's behavior?
02:34.31cogwheelspeaking of which... how do you get purl to join a channel?
02:34.52MentalPowercogwheel: you ask TimRiker
02:35.04MentalPower~seen TimRiker
02:35.13purltimriker <n=timr@pdpc/supporter/bronze/TimRiker> was last seen on IRC in channel #infobot, 6h 12m 30s ago, saying: 'it's a forker. no reload required.'.
02:35.24cogwheelMentalPower: ty
02:35.51MentalPowernp, anytime
02:36.14MentalPowerI think tim has a rule where only the ops can request purl to join a channel
02:37.18MentalPowersince no one answered my Q about telling #infobot I guess I will
02:39.14cogwheelbotsnack
02:42.14Shirikuh
02:42.19Shirikpurl can be /invited
02:42.33Shirikwell, maybe only after you throw it through him I guess
02:42.53ShirikI only ever had to /invite, but obviously purl's been here before
02:43.10ScytheBlade1purl has to be authed to the channel first
02:43.18ScytheBlade1Then and only then will purl respond to invite requests
02:43.24cogwheelhow to do that?
02:43.31ScytheBlade1ask TimRiker :)
02:43.42cogwheel><
02:45.59MentalPoweryeah, only TimRiker can add purl to a channel
02:46.37MentalPowernote that the one you get will prolly not be "purl", but it will still share the same brain (apt/ibot/infobot/jbot)
02:47.50Arrowmasteroh boo it wants me to reboot to finish installing access07
02:49.00MentalPowermeans you were using something that access2007 updated
02:49.08MentalPowercause it usually does not ask for a reboot
02:50.15Arrowmasteri had the compat pack installed
02:52.28Arrowmasterseems i can only get vista business from msdnaa if i ever did want to try it
02:52.56Shirikget a real msdn subscription :D

03:18.56Shirikoh well the school has a bunch of software titles licenesed in the library for taking
03:18.58MentalPowerArrowmaster: I only see 15 things listed in your page, do you see the same for mine?
03:18.59Arrowmasternot sure if they disable them when not in those classes as ive never tried
03:18.59Shirikbut not msdnaa
03:19.09ArrowmasterMentalPower: try the dropdown
03:19.28Arrowmasteryour page is huge
03:19.36MentalPowerah, granted
03:19.43Arrowmasteri only see like 15 things on mine but its all in the dropdown
03:22.50Arrowmasteri hate how msdnaa gives you windows keys that still need wga activation
03:23.06MentalPowerI think msdn does that too
03:23.19Shirikwgn?
03:23.31MentalPowerwindows genuine advantage
03:23.34Arrowmasterguess they just generate a new one on every request

03:23.54Shirikyes they do

03:24.56MentalPoweryes it will
03:24.56Arrowmasteri dont know

03:25.18MentalPowerah, true dat
03:25.20MentalPowerits not vista :)
03:25.38Arrowmasterso im using a VLK that still works with WGA
03:25.48MentalPowery did you use a VLK to begin with anyways
03:26.02Arrowmasterbecause i didnt want to deal with the activations
03:26.32MentalPowerthats not a reason
03:26.38MentalPowerit takes all of 300ms to activate
03:26.57DARKGuypiracy checks are absurd anyways.
03:27.09Arrowmasterpff i have 2 other xp computers using msdnaa keys anyway
03:27.38MentalPowerDARKGuy: they work tho
03:27.46Arrowmasterno they dont

03:28.18Tem|AFKMentalPower, DRM is a giant failure as it stands right now
03:28.24DARKGuyEw, DRM.
03:28.26Arrowmasterthe VLK key im using has zero downsides over using a non VLK key
03:28.27Tem|AFKThe only people it hurts are the honest customers
03:28.30MentalPowerArrowmaster: just cause you use a VLK that hasn't been blacklisted yet
03:28.44Tem|AFKa pirate can _always_ get around it someway or somehow
03:28.54DARKGuyya
03:28.57Arrowmasteri dont think this key will ever be blacklisted

06:09.38MentalPower~irc
06:09.39purl"Welcome to IRC: where the men are men, the women are men, and the little girls are FBI agents."
06:11.18Zurikthanks for the warm welcome.
06:11.18purlZurik: no problem
06:11.28Guillotinewow
06:11.31Guillotinedidn't know that one existed
06:11.40Zuriki was putting together a pastebin.com doc.. so i can get my issue out in the open.
06:11.58Guillotineooo, someone that already knows about pastebin
06:12.25Zurikso I've created an Addon, and the issue i'm having is.. that i created a dropdown. (LOL: Guillotine) and cannot populate it with the datatable.
06:12.31Zuriki get no errors in wow.
06:12.36Zurikhttp://pastebin.com/d15f23f80   this is my code.
06:12.45Zurikhow do i make that a link in IRC?
06:13.22Guillotineour clients do it themselves :)
06:13.25Guillotineor we copy+paste
06:13.36Zurikawh cool.
06:13.47GuillotineSo, what are you used to? looks like python style coding to me
06:13.59Guillotinehmm, maybe not
06:14.05Zurikactually this is my first day programming LUA
06:14.05krkaZurik: Lua is not an acronym. It is a Portuguese word that means moon.
06:14.13Guillotinehahahaha
06:14.16Zurikhaha.
06:14.21Guillotineyou actually made a script for that?
06:14.30Guillotinekrka++
06:14.35Zurikwho is krka?
06:14.37cogwheelyep he did :)
06:14.38Zuriklol
06:14.56Zurikis that a bot?
06:14.58GuillotineZurik: Yah, was just commenting on your use of _ before variable names
06:14.59Guillotinenah
06:15.00Zurikthat said that.
06:15.02Guillotinepurl is our bot
06:15.15Guillotinekrka just set up a script in his irc client
06:15.23Zurikawh.. nifty
06:15.43ZurikGuill: Na, i hired an addon developer to do my addon for me and he bailed from the project.
06:15.56Zurikso now i'm stuck figuring out how to do it myself.
06:16.07Zuriki'm a coldfusion & web developer.
06:16.14Zurikso lua is new to me.
06:16.48ZurikI followed by his example from some of the other functions and i'm pretty good with JS..
06:16.50GuillotineSo I assume somewhere in your file you are initiating the tables? e.g. WC5={}
06:17.19GuillotineZurik: doesn't matter at all, I just find it fascinating. Don't see many people use that coding style with Lua
06:17.35ZurikGuill: yeah i am.
06:17.50ZurikGuill: :)
06:18.19Zurikif not WC5 then
06:18.20ZurikWC5 = {}
06:18.20Zurikend
06:18.20ZurikWC5.LFG = {}
06:18.21GuillotineSo the addon is actually loading? (Just want to check all the common mistakes before I thoroughly read through the code)
06:18.43Zurikyeah everything works perfectly..
06:18.57Zuriki'm trying to get this dropdown to work.. no errors.. just no data.
06:19.03GuillotineAnd you have Lua errors showing?
06:19.09Zurikno errors
06:19.25Guillotinebut have you enabled the option to show the errors?
06:19.40GuillotineBy default errors are hidden
06:19.49Zurikhrm.. well i have bugsack
06:19.55Zurikthat catches errors.
06:19.58Guillotineyup
06:20.01Zurikother than that .. no.
06:20.27GuillotineNah, if you have bugsack enabled, thats ok
06:20.32Zurikkk.
06:20.54GuillotineWhat does WC5.LFG._GroupBuilder:Inherit(...) do?
06:21.50Zurikum.. i can paste it in pastebin.com for you, sec.
06:22.02Zurikalso.. i've been referencing this page.
06:22.03Zurikhttp://www.wowwiki.com/HOWTO:_Use_UIDropDownMenu
06:23.14Zurikhttp://pastebin.com/d2e92b199
06:23.38Zurikguill: that is my entire WC5_Debug.lua file.
06:24.48Zuriklooks like it does just what the function name says it does.. inherits a parent object and it's properties.
06:25.35Guillotinebtw, you can get rid of DeepCloneTable. There is a built-in function now called CopyTable that does the same thing
06:25.50Zurikheh.. cool!
06:26.08Zurikdo you know what groupcalendar is?
06:26.18Zurikthe Addon for WOW.
06:26.50Guillotineof course :)
06:26.59ZurikThe developer of that Addon wrote most of what i have now.
06:27.20ZurikI had hired him. and for whatever reason.. he didn't want to do it anymore..
06:27.35GuillotineInteresting
06:27.55GuillotineDo you have an xml file or are you using Lua created frames?
06:28.03Zuriklua created frames
06:28.07Zurikactually you might like this.
06:28.11Zurikor might not.
06:28.31Zurikhe has a few functions in here.
06:28.51Zurikfunction WC5.UI._Frame:_New(pParent)
06:28.51Zurikreturn CreateFrame("FRAME", nil, pParent)
06:28.51Zurikend
06:28.55Zuriklike that one.
06:29.02Guillotineo.O
06:29.19GuillotineThat just causes an extra function call as well as more ambiguity in the coding
06:29.31Zurikthen he has this StackChild function
06:29.42Zurikfunction WC5.UI._Frame:StackChild(pFrame, pEdge)
06:30.12Zurikso if you look at the pastebin page i sent you.. look for the groupbuild.lua part
06:30.29Zurikyou can see.. how i'm creating frames. and then stacking them within each other.
06:30.47Zuriknow granted .. i'm a total noob .. but i know how to read code.. no matter what kind it is.
06:31.01ZurikBut it's interesting how he put all of it together.
06:31.35Zurikmy contribution thus far.. is the WC5_Groupbuilder.lua file & the function from the UIElements for the dropdown.
06:31.51Zurikso you think you could help me?
06:32.11GuillotineThe problem is, seeing only some of the code, I don't really know if, perhaps, the function to populate the dropdown is just not called when the dropdown is shown
06:32.42Zuriki can send you the entire code if need be.. I have to get this working.
06:32.51Zurikso i can keep building the addon..
06:32.58Zurikit's for my website  http://wowcorefive.com
06:33.10Zurikit's a crutial part of our project.
06:33.54Zurikand i have a long road a head of me.
06:33.59GuillotineI definitely like your format better than the one I was working on :P
06:34.10Zurikheh
06:34.13GuillotineMy suggestion would be to insert a lot of debug text
06:34.14Zurikyou mean the site?
06:34.18GuillotineChances are a function just isn't being called
06:34.21GuillotineFor the addon
06:34.30Zurikit is.. i already tested to that part
06:35.09Zurikfor example..  by the time this like is executed.
06:35.09*** join/#wowuidev Vilkku (n=Vilkku@86-60-157-18-dyn-dsl.ssp.fi)
06:35.11Zurik<PROTECTED>
06:35.23Zurikthe dropdown is already there..
06:35.36GuillotineThen it should populate it
06:35.56Zurikthe data .. get's loaded.. as i did a "Say" with this string as it built the Info.
06:36.14Zurikinfo.text = string.format(instFormat, data[i].startdate, data[i].shorthand)
06:36.41Zurikso everytime it set that .. i put a "say" into the chat window.. (more or less because i don't know how to send it to the debug window)
06:36.52Zurikand it did it 1 time for each record in the datatable.
06:36.59Zurikbut still no data in the dropdown.
06:37.05Zurikhrm.. so frustraiting.!
06:37.52Zurikif you look at the wowwiki document i pasted earlier.. it says something about initializing .. but i could not get that to work at all.
06:38.35Zurikso i am thinking it's some sort of loading order.. or initialization.. or maybe the data is going into a different instance of the same object..
06:39.00Zurikwho effin knows.. all i know is i'm getting angry.. and i'm about to bust a cap in my monitor yo!
06:39.13Guillotine1) Your dropdown frame is inheriting UIDropDownMenuTemplate (NOT through your inherit function)
06:39.20Guillotine?
06:40.04Zurikum.. i pleed.. knot knowing what the hell i'm doing.
06:40.09Zuriknot*
06:40.24Zuriki got that from the example.
06:40.40Zurikso that's why i was doing it that way.. so i should do it thought the inherit function?
06:40.54Guillotineno
06:41.18Zurikk.  but i'm followin ya.
06:41.27GuillotineWhen you create the frame, use CreateFrame ( http://www.wowwiki.com/API_CreateFrame )
06:41.44Guillotinein parameter #4, use "UIDropDownMenuTemplate"
06:42.10Zurikok.. how is it different? i'll check it out now.

06:43.41Zurikyeah,  i'll take a look at that too.
06:43.56Zurikunfortunately.. i'm thowin into the lions den on this one.
06:44.10Zurikso i have not had a chance to go thought the proper steps of learing.
06:44.55ZurikGuillotine.. where are you located?  Feel like making some extra mula.. ROFL!
06:45.12GuillotineI would, but I am way too busy :(

06:47.30SixenOh, hm. Alright.
06:47.30Fisker-then you don't get pwn'd :D
06:47.38GuillotineFisker- :P

06:48.21Fisker-it's older
06:48.22Fisker-also
06:48.36SixenHm. Does the new one include the same stuff?
06:48.37Zurikwell seriously.. i need help with this tho.. i'm even willing to pay for the help.
06:48.42Fisker-i'd guess
06:48.44Sixen:/
06:48.47GuillotineThe new one is COMPLETELY different and utterly superior
06:48.56Fisker-also
06:48.58SixenAh, alright. So, would you recommend buying both, or will the new one suffice?
06:49.04GuillotineJust the new one
06:49.05Fisker-it doesn't reference hacking and getting pwn'd
06:49.08Fisker-i'd get the new one
06:49.10SixenI know, =P.
06:49.12SixenMmmm, alright.
06:49.23IrielMy $0.02 - Just the new one
06:49.34SixenMmmm, thanks Iriel.
06:49.50Guillotinethe older one is mostly just a list of what addons exist and is somewhat out-of-date. For programming, the new one is the way to go. For using addons, the old one is great
06:50.10SixenI've got the internet for that, :D.
06:50.22SixenWell technically, I can use the internet for learning too.. But meh.

08:47.21fropi mean, does RBM's bars "overwrite" BigWigs' bars?
08:47.35fropor you get both?
08:54.03XuerianTechnically neither should interfere with the other
08:54.41fropso i should get both
08:54.43Xuerianno
08:55.02fropisn't RBM intercepting them?
08:55.45XuerianGenerally it's best to go with what your raid is using
08:55.45fropi mean...BigWigs create a bar...RBM intercept and shows it
08:56.16fropmy raid is using DBM...but it bugs...so some are asked to run alternative boss mods
08:56.48Kyahxif your using alt-mods becuase DMB bugs, why not just have everoyne switch to something that works?
08:56.50XuerianWell that's a little different :P. Run bigwigs then
08:56.51frop...and tbh...never liked dbm so much
08:57.13fropKyahx don't ask me ^^
08:57.22Kyahxseems silly :P
08:57.49Kyahx"i really like DBM for no reason, but it dosen't work.  You should run something else so I can get spammed by your timers when mine blow up"
08:57.53fropXuerian it's what i'm doing...but as i've understood it, RBM is intercepting bigwigs' bars
08:58.39fropaye, it get bars from bigwigs and display them, with its skin
08:59.04frop(it's not bad i guess, just asking)
08:59.09XuerianWell, so long as you don't care well let it diddle itself. Otherwise, just disable it
08:59.27XuerianFrom what you're saying it's purely preference
08:59.36fropaye
08:59.50fropbut i'm not still sure how it works :)
09:00.13fropit's enought to "filter out" BigWigs bars i guess
09:00.38XuerianIf you don't need DBM running (You're running bigwigs, after all), just disable dbm so there's no confusion
09:00.54fropDBM isn't even installed here :)
09:01.35XuerianNo problem then :p

12:28.03NomWell
12:28.05NomAt least
12:28.07Nom1. I know what it is
12:28.17Nom2. The parts are 4 hours old, so I can get them replaced under warranty :P
12:28.38NomI've been pulling my hair out for the last couple of hours trying to get Ubuntu 8.04 Server to install
12:28.44NomKept kernel panicking and I couldn't work out why
12:28.55foxlitHow do you actuall know the ram stick is dead? :)
12:29.11NomI put it in on it's own, ran a memory test using the tool on the Ubuntu setup CD
12:29.18Nomupon beginning the test, my computer reset itself
12:29.31NomI repeated the same thing with the second stick of memory, and it progressed through all the test
12:29.32Nom:P
12:29.56foxlitHad a similar problem when I built my current PC
12:30.22nevcairielmemtest86 wins for debugging ram
12:30.33foxlitmemtest86: "the results were inconclusive"
12:30.41NomThis is corsair memory too
12:30.47foxlitSo was mine :)
12:30.56foxlitI mean, it can crash, or it can pass, or it can freeze things, but you're never too sure what's actually at fault
12:31.17nevcairielwell if you have a second one of the same brand, and it works flawlessly
12:31.21nevcairieli would blame the RAM
12:31.28Nomwell
12:31.36Nomsince the two sticks of memory are identical
12:31.45Nomone progressed through allt he memory tests and the other reset the computer
12:31.55Nomit's a pretty safe bet that there's a DOA stick :P
12:32.02foxlittesting at as good stick vs bad stick, or good+bad stick vs good stick?
12:32.19foxlitThe problem was that motherboard firmware couldn't properly identify the sticks, used stored JEDEC timings and overall failed - adjust BIOS settings to match the stick specification, worked flawlessly since
12:32.46nevcairielshouldnt the stick provide a standard config in the SPD ?
12:34.09foxlitIt provides some config through SPD, but not the one you'd expect
12:34.23nevcairielgenerally its a slow but safe config
12:34.40nevcairieli have to increase the RAM voltage if i want the performance settings for my corsair
12:34.59foxlit^ same
12:35.04nevcairielthe SPD cannot set the voltage
12:35.05foxlitEnds up crashing randomly if you don't.
12:35.09nevcairielso it uses a slow setting
12:35.13nevcairielthat doesnt require it .)
12:35.18foxlit(and still crashes randomly, for me)
12:35.40nevcairielHm dunno, havent had any errors for ever
12:35.48foxlitThat is, slow+standard voltage == instability
12:35.54foxlitfast+increased voltage == works
12:36.12nevcairielwho knows, i think i bumped the config before installing anything on it
12:36.40nevcairielI had to get a different motherboard to make it work, though

13:05.59Gilial'Prolly not much help but.. I think it'd be possible to override the textures used for the mouse with transparent ones in your own MPQs or something of that nature. Of course, then you couldn't toggle it..Something of that nature is all I can think of, sorry.
13:08.20foxlitThere's SetCursor(), so you can actually change the cursor without messing with MPQs
13:09.42GilialOh hey -- You found it, good!
13:10.11foxlitI'm just not sure if that's what I should be looking for
13:12.00foxlitAh, I see
13:12.07foxlitTime to update the wiki page a bit
13:14.28GilialIt looks like you'd have to supply your own image for it...Yey -- Updates! Moar to learn. Mind mentioning when you do? Curious to see what's different.
13:19.27SnagoAnyone have a suggestion for a good group roll frame replacement?
13:20.08Cidewhy do you have to replace it?
13:20.35nevcairielwhy do you replace anything in the stock UI?
13:20.49Cideexactly
13:21.06foxlitBecause that particular part isn't very good
13:21.15foxlitWhile it functions, there is probably a better way to handle it
13:21.32foxlit(in particular, there's no reason for the arbitrary 4-items limit on the number of rolls displayed at the same time)
13:21.40CideI asked him, not you
13:21.48foxlitI replied to nev, not you.
13:21.48Cideif he wants a replacement, he should probably state whta he wants changed
13:22.11nevcairielfoxlit: my question was more ironical :P
13:22.35SnagoIt looks pretty crap and it's in a bad place. And what foxlit said, 4 item limit sucks
13:22.47Cideyou wouldn't have said that had he not mentioned it
13:22.57foxlitnev: foiled by irony! :(
13:23.10Cideand 4 item limit isn't exactly game breaking
13:23.39SnagoCide: If you don't know any it's ok
13:23.51nevcairieldid you try XLoot?
13:24.13nevcairielthats the only one i know :)
13:24.16nevcairieli use the defaults
13:24.24foxlitSame, really.
13:24.26nevcairielXLootGroup in particular
13:25.17foxlitwonder if the looting api lends itself to some tracking
13:25.29foxlitWouldn't mind seeing who/how many selected N/G without it cluttering the chat
13:25.53nevcairielprobably only with event tracking of your own
13:26.09nevcairiel(and detailed loot enabled <.<)
13:26.57foxlitI'd have to look up those events - they could get away with just passing an item link, player name, and N/G selection
13:27.05foxlitIn which case you're out of luck tracking multiple similar items

18:26.49Zurikhello everyone.
18:27.46ZurikI have some WoW UI questions.. and i need some help with this addon that i'm making for my website.
18:27.51Zurikthe website is http://wowcorefive.com
18:30.06Cideyou don't make addons for websites
18:30.16Dumanheh
18:30.29CideZurik: so what's the question?

18:30.32purlThis is IRC. Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question and if someone's around, they'll be glad to help.
18:31.02Cidealso
18:31.09Cideplease please please please
18:31.21Cidego for a regular design and not the whole gradient thing
18:31.52Zuriksorry dog went haywire.. and phone was ringing
18:32.01Zuriki didn't get a chance to type the entire question
18:32.23Zurikanyways.. i'm having an issue with populating a dropdown with data.
18:32.43Zuriki see the dropdown .. and i don't get any errors.. just no data is populating into the data table.
18:33.00Cideugh
18:33.15Zurikwait.. not into the data table.. i mean from the datatable.
18:33.28Cidewowwiki should have some tutorials on it
18:33.30Zurikdon't worry Cide  i have pastebin.com to show you my issue.
18:33.40Zuriki am using the tutorials.. it's not working.
18:33.57Zurikgive me a sec.. i'll have full code for you to view.. if you don't mind taking a look at it.
18:34.07CideI may or may not
18:34.49Cidedepending on how good looking it is
18:34.49Zuriklol.. k.
18:34.49Cideand also I haven't dealt with dropdowns in forever
18:34.49CideI have a wrapper for it
18:38.56Zurikyeah that's kinda what i'm making .. is a wrapper for it.. so that i can reuse the component over and over.
18:39.04Zurikfew more mins.. and i'll have paste bin up.

18:44.10Zuriklet me know if you need to see anything else to help you help me.
18:44.10Cidebut that's not much from the default ui
18:44.19Cideit's almost all your own code/wrappers
18:44.48Zurikwell this is the situation i'm in.. I hired a developer.. the guy that created GroupCalendar.
18:45.04Zurikhe wrote most of the framework for the Addon.. then left my project ..
18:45.22Zuriki don't know lua or how to addon develop.. but i'm well versed programmer
18:45.34Zurikin various other languages.. and i can read code pretty easy.
18:45.40Zurikso i understand what's happening.
18:45.56Zurikbut i didn't want to start all over .. so i've been working with what he has got.
18:46.07ZurikI've been lua programming all of 3 days.
18:46.27Zurikbut i know how to read the API and i understand the syntax
18:47.00Zurikbut what i don't know.. is why the data is not populating when i call the _loadData function.

19:16.46Zurikhow do i get the _onClick method to fire if the element is created on the fly.
19:16.56Zurikthis is a dynamic function
19:17.12Zurikcan i do function drop:_OnClick()  ?
19:17.17Zurikcuz i tried that and it didn't work.
19:17.57Xuerian0_o.... For one, what element isnt' registering clicks? You probably have to RegisterForClicks(..) (look it up)
19:18.20Zuriki also tried dropButton_OnCLick()  and UIDropdownMenuButton_OnClick()
19:18.24Zuriknothing seems to fire.
19:18.33XuerianThose aren't magic functions
19:19.05XuerianDo you see the XML? It's registering those functions to be callbacks. You have to register your callbacks with frame:SetScript(...) (Look it up, again)
19:19.09ZurikRegisterForClicks..hrm.. i'm not sure what that means... where do i look it up? do you have a link somewhere?
19:19.22Zurikthere is no XML, this is all built in lua
19:19.29Xuerianhttp://wowwiki.com/World_of_Warcraft_API http://wowwiki.com/Widget_API
19:19.36XuerianYes, I write my addons in pure lua
19:19.52bleetahI write my addons in crayon
19:19.53XuerianBut since you're not following the xml part of the example you have to setup your callbacks in lua with SetScript
19:19.58bleetahtho I haven't had any published yet
19:20.10bleetahso I better warn you, I'm in a meeeeannnn mood
19:20.18Zurikoh.. oh.. i think your on to something Xuerian...
19:20.27XuerianI know you're just starting, but if you're going to follow wowwiki tutorials you have to translate what they do in xml into lua too
19:20.29Zuriki have not tried this yet.
19:20.38Zurikgotcha.
19:20.47XuerianSo if you see you're not doing something they're doing, either look it up in teh widget api page or ask here

20:17.43MentalPowernevcairiel: WoW's debugstack has extra parameters that vanilla debug.traceback lacks
20:17.49nevcairieloh well
20:17.55nevcairielso they improved it too!
20:18.37MentalPowerand up to 2.4 WoW's debugstack did not work with coroutines
20:25.33ScytheBlade1Hmm, they're supposedly starting the F&F alpha
20:26.18TemScytheBlade1, where'd you hear that?
20:26.43AdysAnyone remembers the css property to add text to a node?
20:26.45AdysTem, mmo champion
20:26.46ScytheBlade1Tem: mmo-champ - emphasis "supposedly"
20:26.46bleetahmmo-champion.com front page maybe
20:26.53Temeh
20:26.58bleetahI heard it was on mmowned as well
20:27.48ScytheBlade1The thread about it on general was just nuked
20:28.06nevcairielthats because the alpha is under a strict NDA
20:28.12ScytheBlade1Yup
20:28.17nevcairielany discussion on the official forums will be moderated/nuked
20:28.57nevcairielbut the next week will be fun
20:29.09nevcairieldaily new screenshots of fake talents

21:04.25kd3good to see that mmo-c at least put the note about F&F being under a strict NDA...
21:05.07Fisker-blizzard dropped the ball
21:05.09Fisker-as usual :D
21:06.06foxlitThat note is dubious
21:06.58CideFisker-: as usual?
21:06.59Zurikwhat does this mean?
21:07.00ZurikMyDropDownMenu doesn't have a "OnClick" script
21:07.16Fisker-yeah Cide
21:07.19Fisker-what do you mean foxlit ?
21:07.20foxlitYou're trying to bind OnClick on a frame
21:07.22Kalrothomg, 450 first aid, maybe I'll get a 4k bandage for my 25k health warrior
21:07.33Zurikyeah i'm using self:SetScript("OnClick", function () drop:_ToggleDropdown() end)
21:07.33Cideqq
21:07.47foxlitThere's no OnClick handler for frames
21:08.00Zurikok.
21:08.12foxlitNor should you need to call ToggleDropdown directly
21:08.17nevcairielmake that frame a button
21:08.22nevcairieland you have a OnClick :P

21:09.46Zurikfoxlit: so i don't have to call ToggleDropdown?
21:09.49foxlitIf you're making an actual dropdown list box, you shouldn't need to - UIDropDownMenu_Initialize handles everything you have to care about
21:10.03foxlitToggleDropdown is for menus that you'd pop up on right clicks on frames and stuff
21:10.18Zurikbut how to i get that to fire when i don't have any XML everything is lua
21:10.28foxlit[GetSpellInfo((GetSpellInfo(e.id))); vs GetSpellInfo(GetSpellInfo(e.id)); -- such a difference () makes]
21:11.01[Liquidor]Has anyone noticed that newlines in the chat is indented?
21:11.07foxlitYes, it's nice
21:11.10Zurikoh.. didn't realize that.
21:11.30foxlitThere's no more [Mallory]            [Bob]: Alice sucks!
21:11.36Zurikwell all i'm trying to do is populate a dropdown with some data..

21:12.06foxlitpastey your code somewhere, if you want to
21:12.07Fisker-blizzard doesn't care about european people!
21:12.15foxlitdropdowns are generally mean like that
21:12.17[Liquidor]Zurik, I suggest you read some docus on it

21:15.06Fisker-btw
21:15.06Fisker-i wonder why it allow people to login and make characters :D
21:15.06kd3heh
21:15.06kd3they move the client download? seems like it's in a different spot from the BC F&F alpha
21:15.07Fisker-i don't think it's up yet
21:15.07Fisker-Since everyone can run around make characters and what not
21:15.07ScytheBlade1Wait what?
21:15.07foxlitZurik: you need to call UIDropDownMenu_Initialize at some point during that
21:15.07foxlitSee UIDropDownMenu.lua for how that works
21:15.07Fisker-they probably prepped it for yesterday but didn't make, so they're probably launching next week
21:15.07Zurikwould i put that in my constructor?
21:15.07Fisker-make it*
21:15.07foxlitGenerally, multiple levels of abstraction make baby llamas cry
21:15.38Zuriklol
21:15.43foxlitafter CreateFrame, I suspect
21:15.48Zurikfoxlit: ok, let me try something.. i think you gave me an idea.
21:15.54foxlitThat OO approach is difficult to read :/
21:16.32Zurikyeah i'm use to it.. Java / javascript
21:17.46foxlitYou'll end up more code to bridge the paradigm difference between your approach and Blizzard's, but whatever floats your boat;
21:19.17Fisker-hmm
21:19.21Fisker-$spell is refreshed
21:19.37Zurikfoxlit: can i call UIDropDownMenu_Initialize(frame, initFunction, displayMode, level, menuList) with a nil initFunction?
21:19.50foxlitI wouldn't.
21:20.07Zuriki should put my loadData there then huh.
21:20.12foxlitIt may not crash on you, but it's certainly required for the dropdown to function properly
21:20.32foxlitinitFunction is called by the dropdown whenever it needs to look up what it should be displaying.
