Igonre my last post, I've reinstalled and cramped everything I could on my poor little C: Drive and it seems to be ok for now.

Hmm.. strange... I'll check back later with a possible sollution, assuming I can find a way around it.

I'm experimenting with a custom wotlk 3.3.5a server based on the, at the time, latest version of ArcEmu.
The idea so far is to have a character with both Mana, Energy and Rage.
Mana and energy regenerates flawlessly. Rage Generates aswell. (The extra powerbars you can see on the attatched picture, is a modification of the Druid shapeshift extra bars, and they also work perfectly.)

So, I have two questions to anybody experienced with the ArcEmu source or likewise:

1. How do I get rage to degenerate?
 Here's my current code on Rage degeneration, and I can't see anything wrong with it. Perhaps a fresh set of eyes could spot flaws in my poor programming skills..

In "Unit.cpp" under the "void Unit::Update(uint32 p_time)" function:
  if(p_time >= m_R_degenTimer)
TO< Player* >(this)->DegenerateRage();
else
m_R_degenTimer -= static_cast<uint16>(p_time);
In "Player.cpp"
 void Player::DegenerateRage()
// Handles the Rage Degeneration and sends info further on to LooseRage.
{
if(!isAlive()) // Don't do anything if the player is dead
return; // just skip it all.

m_R_degenTimer = 1500; // Set the Rage Degen Timer just in case.
if(!CombatStatus.IsInCombat())
{
if(HasAura(12296))
LooseRage(20);
else
LooseRage(30);
}
else
{
if(HasAura(12296))
{
m_R_degenTimer = 1500;
TO< Player* >(this)->LooseRage(-10);
}
}
}
void Player::LooseRage(uint32 decayValue)
// Further handles the Degeneration of Rage.
{
uint32 cur = GetPower(POWER_TYPE_RAGE);
uint32 newrage = ((int)cur <= decayValue) ? 0 : cur - decayValue;
if( cur <= decayValue )
newrage = 0;
else
newrage = cur - decayValue;
if(newrage > 1000)
newrage = 1000;
SetPower(POWER_TYPE_RAGE, newrage);
}


2. How do I enable combopoints for classes other than Rogue and Druid?
I have no idea where this code is located... -.-

Anybody has any ideas?
Thanks, cheers! =D

The plan is to make a little more options in customizing the controls. I agree this type of control-style should be optional.
To be honest, that add-on I linked to pretty much has everything I was trying to do, except the option for inverted mouse when useing mouselook. Looking at the coding helped me out allot.
Theese kind of controls should be toggled and customized from the game options-menu.

I think I'll be working with recoding this add-on instead, now that I have a fairly good base layed out to build upon. Saves some time.

By the way, once I'm done with it - does anyone have an idea on how to include my final "addon" in the clientside "Patch-x.MPQ" and how to *Not have it listed as an add-on but rather concidered part of the client-side UI?

Hi!
I'd like to re-map the controls of wow to get more of an "FPS"-feeling but I'm having some problems with this. This might be a little long since the material in the Spoiler is basically a log of my investigation around this. I have a mouselook-macro there that I find useful. Read if you are interrested, otherwise you can just scroll pass it.

[spoiler:yjrvu1eq]So...By opening the keybinding options in-game, one would notice a few of the basic bindings missing.
The missing binding in context is the right mousebutton which activates a "mouselook", or attacks/loots if something close is targeted.
The function bound to the second mouse button is called "TURNORACTION".

As I said earlier, this function is not present for custom keybing via the Keybindings-menu. In addition, it is not present in the file: "..//World of Warcraft//WTF//Account//accountname//bindings-cache.WTF".
This binding can be added to "binings-cache.WTF" and the line for it would be:
bind BUTTON2 TURNORACTION(This way, one can map the function from BUTTON2 to a different key if that is of interrest.)

However, by default, the TURNORACTION function is off untill the right mousebutton, or BUTTON2, is pressed. Without the button being pressed, the "mouselook" function is inactive, which means that by moving the mouse, I'm moving the cursor on the screen.
I would rather have it the other way around, so that "mouselook" is active by default, and only while holding down a modifyer like SHIFT or something, the cursor becomes active.

I'd like to switch place between the states of "default mouse-function" and the TURNORACTION function. The problem is, I do not know how to do this. There probably isn't a function to bind, equavilent of this "default mouse-function", sice TURNORACTION is only active while the button is pressed down, hence, the function deactivates and reverts back to "default mouse-function" once the right mouse button is released.


At: http://www.wowwiki.com/World_of_Warcraft_API - I stumbeled upon a few WoW API functions of interrest.
Take a look at theese:

IsMouselooking() - Returns 1 if mouselook is currently active, nil otherwise.
MouselookStart() - Enters mouse look mode; mouse movement is used to adjust movement/facing direction.
MouselookStop() - Exits mouse look mode; mouse movement is used to move the mouse cursor.

I tested theese API's simply by creating a macro in wow that consisted of the following:
/run if IsMouselooking() then MouselookStop() else MouselookStart() endBy activating this macro, I found the somewhat desired effect: Wow in mouselook mode, independent of holding the activator (BUTTON2) pressed down. In other words, the macro toggles Mouselook on/off.

//////////////////////////// NOTE ON MACRO ////////////////////////////
If you found the previous macro interresting, try this instead:
Create a Macro, call it "Mouselook" without the ".
/script SetBindingMacro("SHIFT-BUTTON2","Mouselook");
/run if IsMouselooking() then MouselookStop() else MouselookStart() endThis macro sets shift+right mousebutton to toggle mouselook on/off, however you will be unable to interract with things, like looting, attacking, talking to npc's etc while holding the shift-key. If you wish to use this, then you will need to click this macro once, only once and then no more. Do this: You can drag your newly created "Mouselook" macro out to your actionbar, click it, right click anywhere (to get out of mouselook mode), and then remove it from your actionbar (you won't need it there anymore since it's bound to trigger by holding shift and clicking the right mousebutton).
I use this when playing on the real, blizzard WoW servers.

Anyway, so far so good.[/spoiler:yjrvu1eq]


Again, at: http://www.wowwiki.com/World_of_Warcraft_API - I stumbeled upon a few WoW API functions of interrest.
Take a look at theese:
IsMouselooking() - Returns 1 if mouselook is currently active, nil otherwise.
MouselookStart() - Enters mouse look mode; mouse movement is used to adjust movement/facing direction.
MouselookStop() - Exits mouse look mode; mouse movement is used to move the mouse cursor.

I seriously don't want to use a macro for this function, just for the sake of it being a macro.
I suppose that "MouselookStart()" can be set to launch via "..//World of Warcraft//WTF//config.WTF", though, haven't tested that yet. Because, theoretically, there's probably a CVar related to this API somewhere to set mouselook to be activated by default when loading wow.

Anyway, to My Question :
How can I have Mouselook always ON by default, but by useing a modifyer like holding SHIFT or CTRL to disable mouselook, thus enabeling the cursor for interaction? I'm not looking for a "toggle"-solution, in fact, I'd like to have an "OnKeyDown"-kinda function for this.

The concept-model is just about done for the male model.
It turned out great imo!

Since I like the forsaken very much I want to point out that this model isn't intended to replace the undead in anyway, but to be added as an additional race in a larger project.

Done:
Bones and stuff was already removed on the korean-version of the model (which saved me some time).
Other than that: the muscles has been tweaked and the stomage/hip is completely reshaped. The face is also reshaped, but not particulary much. Claws on toes and hands has been removed. The skin is completely retextured.

All that's left is some minor adjustments but for now it looks pretty much the way I intended it to.

To do:
There's a barely noticable gap between the upper and lower body, plus by reshaping the Jaw (which was three seperate geosets) made it look akward in some lights, as you can see on the third image in the second picture. I'd love to get some inputs on how to fix that.

I'm thrilled to hear some opinions and suggestions!

I totally see your point.
The disturbing thing about wow-armor is that it's stretched over the chest/legs like spandex, regardless of wether it's cloth or platemail.
The spandex effect cannot make any armor look it's part, thus in wow, you add shoulders to make your character look bulky, which leads to totally oversized shoulders and wierd shaped helemts, since that's about the only thing that makes the character stand out. Plus it's too much pink/violet.

;P

I saw this first on youtube and I honestly want to say that I think this is truely amazing!
