Hi there, I have a little problem on my server. It may be due to custom code, but I'm not sure where to start looking (or if its a mangos problem) Rogues work fine out of an instance but as soon as they are in an instanced map, they dont build any combo points except for [Multilate] I cant switch spec within an instance either. (no class/race can) Please advise, T Edit: This is with latest core btw.

Hi there. I basically want to duplicate a single map and make the server use it as two seperate maps. I know what you are thinking - spawn objects and creatures in two different phases... that is not what I would like to do - Any pointers?? Any help would be much appreciated! Reason for this: I would like to make use of world maps as custom battleground maps.

You have to use command line svn and manually type the commands

Hi there. I basically want to duplicate a single map and make the server use it as two seperate maps. I know what you are thinking - spawn objects and creatures in two different phases... that is not what I would like to do. Any pointers?? What DBC's will require custom data? Where will I have to change code? Any help would be much appreciated! Reason for this: I would like to make use of world maps as custom battleground maps.

Do you compile in x64 or 32 bit mode?

They have custom implementation of SVN server with incorrect replies to standard SVN requests.

Thanks for translation in first post!! I'll test this patch some time - does it require db support?

The "patched effects" is as these spells are on my realm at the moment. Im not sure about the formulas, but if the report seems accurate enough I'll post the code I have for those spells.

Death-Knight investigation: Over the course of a few hours I tested out every talent, talent upgrade and ability available to Deekay both in PVP and PVE scenarios. Most if not all of the attribute-increasing talents worked as expected and incremented properly for each talent point invested in them – as such, they have not been included in the report. The same can be said about many of the basic abilities such as plague-strike, blood strike, death-coil etc. What is included in the report is a short name and description of every ‘broken’ ability and talent that I could detect, and my observations surrounding summoned minions and pets (it was unclear as to how they were supposed to behave). Broken Abilities: -Death Grip: The visual *grip* effect is absent. -Death and Decay: The tooltip is incorrect as it claims to do 65 damage per second but instead does 256 damage per second with a spell-power of 0 – otherwise it works fine. -Obliterate: Does not consume disease effects on the target as per the description. It is also uncertain whether it is doing the appropriate damage or not, and, as a side-effect, it is impossible to test whether the frost-talent ‘Annihilation’ works or not. -Raise Ally: When the ability is used the cool down is activated yet the spell has no effect. -Rune Strike: Does not activate for use as it should after a successful dodge or parry by the Death Knight. Broken Talents/ Talent-Given-Abilities: -Corpse Explosion: Ability activates and consumes rune power but has no effect. -Hysteria: Appears as a buff but does not decrease the health of the target by 1% per second nor does it actually seem to give a 20% damage increment. -Hungering Cold: Freezes target for 10-seconds as per the tooltip, however, the effect does not apply a frost disease and any disease damage will break the effect, contrary to the tooltip. -Icy Talons & Improved Icy Talons: These do not appear to have any actual effect – even when the buff appears on party or raid members – requires some investigation. -Rune Weapon: The weapon appears but does 82 damage approximately every 2 seconds without performing any abilities instead of mimicking the Death Knight’s attacks at 50% damage as per the tooltip. Observations Surrounding Summoned Minions and Pets: -Raise Dead(patched effect!): Summons an uncontrollable minion with 12k HP that does approximately 250 damage per strike and occasionally uses an ability akin to rend which does an additional 200 damage. The ghoul disappears after the ascribed time-period. If points have been invested in the appropriate Unholy talents then the minion becomes a permanent, controllable pet with several abilities as per the tooltips, however, it is possible with duel-specialization to summon the ghoul and then switch to another talent-build whilst keeping the improved ghoul without any of the proper talents. -Summon Gargoyle(patched effect!): Summons an uncontrollable minion that has approximately 11k HP and does approximately 750 damage per hit to other players – taking into account different resilience ratings and resistances etc. -Summon Bloodworms(patched effect!): Spawns 2-4 worms. The worms each do approximately 82 damage per second whilst healing the Death Knight for 140 HP per second. It is unclear however whether the chance for them to be summoned on each weapon hit is correct or not. Closing Comments: The talents and abilities were tested quite thoroughly and appeared fine with the exception of the aforementioned cases. It is worth noting however that the DK at level 80 only had 67 talent points available to him instead of 71, and that it is unclear if the Death Knight Trainers trained all the abilities to their maximum rank: the ‘legendary’ damage output of the Death Knights seemed somewhat disappointing even when taking inexperience into account. There was also a glitch where the trainer offered to train Frost Horn rank 1 even though the DK had trained to rank two of the skill. Finally it should be mentioned that the Death Knight Profession, Rune-Forging received little testing. Hopefully this report will aid in bringing Death Knights one-step closer to being a playable class!

Patch description??? What does this do??? Why post russian in the english forum??? http://translate.google.com/

I can confirm this.

Hi again, DB is running in 64bit mode. Let me explain the graph. The green flatline areas indicate 0 activity - green and yellow is blended DOWNLOAD bandwidth, which means the server is receiving a ton of requests from the clients but it isnt sending anything back (red)... the spikes of bw is what happens when the server regains.... consciousness so to speak, it floods upload to clients to respond to the amount of requests received. :<

Update: Compiled in Win32 mode and spiking problem dissapeared COMPLETELY. =| Obviously not a solution to the problem, especially because of the memory limitations, but it the spikes seem to be gone.

Above didnt change anything. Should I remove above changes? Any idea how I could diagnose/test/debug these spikes?

Im not saying its the camera system, just saw those functions and thought it could maybe be attributed to camera system. How would I diagnose intermittent spikes? Take a look at my bw graph: Clearly massive spikes, core freezes every now and then =|
