3.0.x support - when will we support it?

[Auntie Mangos]

Thanks for the post. I followed some of the guides for GIT and was able to download the stable branch pretty easily. I would like to download the 303willcrashforsure branch into another folder - can someone tell me the steps ? I attempted a clone and the checkout in this thread, but it didn't work.

Maybe I'm missing something, maybe I just don't GIT it Any help is appreciated.

EDIT : Found this http://getmangos.eu/community/viewtopic.php?id=4360 after I posted - trying the steps in that post now...

Since the question frequently appears, we would like to inform you that MaNGOS currently still supports client 2.4.3 in our stable branch of the sources.

We do have a preliminary development branch for supporting client 3.0.3, which lives in the development branch. In case you want to try out client 3.0.3 or the current WotLK beta client, this is the branch to use.

Please note that until 13th November 2008, the 3.0.3 branch is unsupported, and we will only accept patch contributions, but no bug reports. That's why the branch is named 303-willcrashforsure.

We do not guarantee that the code in this branch will work out of the box, or that your computer will survive running the code.

With kind regards,

[MadJack]

Nice post TheLuda.

Hopefully this will stop the madness!

[marcelomax]

If my computer do not support this branch, it ll explode? The branch is more dangerous to use than windows?

I'm waiting for new patches and i thiks MaNGOS sill the best

$ git checkout -b 303-willcrashforsure

damn I'm getting better at understanding git

[cyrex]

I am learning GIT also. Ever since i started with Mangos and its community i have learned C, C++, PHP, MySQL, SVN and now GIT. This is like a school for me and the best thing is that i can transmit this knowledge to others in my real life community. To think that 3 school management programs made with php/mysql and 1 in the works for my university is all thanks to the knowledge from Mangos.

One can say, the power of open source, the power to learn, to teach, to transmit. Again thank you Mangos Devs for been my teachers all of this years.

But it looks that you guarantee it will crash for sure

Anyway thanks for sharing.

Thats just a name, proves that devs have a sense of humor aswell

The name is intended to signal the taste of code being under development. Works well, I'd guess by the replies.

[vdesai]

Ya, I know but it is a bit humorous

$ git checkout -b 303-willcrashforsure

damn I'm getting better at understanding git

That would make local branch named "303-willcrashforsure" from your current branch. Better use

git branch 303-willcrashforsure origin/303-willcrashforsure

You can then switch between master and 303-willcrashforsure using "git checkout <branchname>" and pull "inside" it as usual.

so am i right in thinking you will be going for patch 3.0.3 support without Northrend be accessable?

or are you going for the full caboodle wotlk so when mangos supports patch 3.0.3 and we have udb that supports it too we can access the expansion content?

keep up the good work guys!

[plunkis]

hello how it takes to download

the branch with git because I tried it and did not market

3.0.3 is NOT WoTLK.

3.0.3 is (hopefully) the last content patch before WoTLK and does not allow access to new classes and continents.

try read the 2 posts above yours......

Patch 3.0.3 Contains 90% of the major changes in WoTLK, if we really supported it ( i mean with most of the changes ), then what would be missing for WoTLK support?

[alexluana]

wow guys u really are fast...

so I understood that mangos will support soon 3.0.3 ... or above...

awesome ...canțt wait to see the changes and all the other cool stuff...

Great work...

Cheers

Can't we still have a clue of when the serveur will support 3.0.x ?

To say that it will be unsupported till 13th November doesn't guarantee that it will be supported at this date...

It will be supported on 42nd of December for sure!

[TheLuda]

3.0.3 will also be the first WotLK patch on release day. After installing the 3.0.1 WotLK client, it will be forced to update to the 3.0.3 client patch.

What features will be supported can be seen from the 303-willcrashforsure commit history.

[charlie2025]

Please note that until 13th November 2008, the 3.0.3 branch is unsupported,

What do you mean by this ? mangos will be at 3.0.3 at this date ? or in this date 303Dev branch will be more supported or what ?

[higi]
