What files do I need to edit to fix spell bugs?


Recommended Posts

^ The topic is my question ^^

I already know of Spell.cpp, but what other files contain pertinent info for fixing spell/talent bugs?

Thanks ahead of time :)

Edit:

Also, what files would contain pertinent info for fixing item/item effects and NPC bugs?

Sorry, very new to the core. Any help is much, much appreciated.

"spell/talent bugs", "item/item effects" and "NPC bugs" could mean anything in any file, including scripts and database stuff. You have to be more specific. And a lot of fixing these bugs involves investigation. We can't really say how to fix something without a specific example and some investigation, otherwise they would all be fixed by now.

I would recommend you either provide a specific example of something you would like fixed or look at previous examples of spell/talent/item effect/whatever fixes, or simply start exploring on your own.

Ah, alright. For example of one of my Spell bugs...

Penance -

This spell is working, but you need to have a specific target,

even if you enable "auto selfcast" you still need to target yourself.

If not, the spell will just be casted straight in the air... (won't heal anyone)

A couple item examples...

Althor's Abacus (HEROIC & NORMAL) -

"Equip: Each time your spells heal a target you

have a chance to cause another nearby friendly

target to be instantly healed for 6280 to 7298."

This effect is bugged, its not healing ONE

nearby friendly target, its healing EVERY

nearby friendly targets/players/npcs.

Priest t10 (Sancitified) itemset bonus -

"Your flash heal has a 33% chanse to cause

the target to heal for 33% of the healed amount

over 9 sec"¨

This effect is not applying on a/the target.

NPC bug...

Horace Hunderland <Plate Armor Merchant> and

Dubin Clay <Plate Armor Merchant> -

In Dalaran, they are not selling gear for "Emblem of Triumph"

Can't even talk to them

(same with many other Emblem of Triumph sellers)

Emblem of Frost Quartermaster is not selling gear for the frost emblems

Nor are the vendors in ICC (supposed to sell the minor t10 set for frost emblems.

-------

Apologies for not being more specific before. I hope this will help my cause ^^

I don't need to know exactly how to fix these bugs(unless you really want to lol) I just need to know the general file(s) to look for them in.

Once again, any help is much, much appreciated.

you can pretty much figure it out from file names example SpellAuras.cpp is in relation with auras, SpellEffects.cpp is where spell effects are implemented.

For this(maybe) there is somewhere something like maxtargets = .. (Search files for wrath of the plaguebringer)
