Server Info

Revision 10403

Using script library: ScriptDev2 (No revision shown )

Using World DB: UDB 0.12.0 (392)

Using creature EventAI: ACID 3.0.4

Problem

Mobs seem to randomly show as green in the client, still if they are normally hostile to the player they will still attack and you'll be left to their mercy while you can't do anything back

I have checked DB entry info, and not all mobs of the same type are affected just a few, so some still appear correctly. Yet their DB data is exactly the same

Reproduction

Tricky as it is seemingly random, it seems to affect a certain type of mob at a time, wasn't able to pinpoint anoything

Custom Patches

AHBot, GM Mail, Auto Broadcaster. I have carefully investigated these patches and am 100% sure that they aren't causing this.

I wrote an async server and async client using the boost library primarily the asio component, I have to warn you networking in general is tricky to wrap your head around.

I'm leaving to eventually hopefully come back with better understanding of WoWd's, I've found someone that is willing to help me learn how "Some Other WoWd" works and by learning that I hope I will be able to learn more about MaNGOS.

Cyber I wish you the best of luck with AHBot if you are willing to open up a new thread I will modify my main post to redirect players to it.

I'm possibly switching to Arc, so if I do I won't be updating this, so Cyber the stage is yours

Cyber are you just busy the entire day and only coding at night or ? Because I want to get us working together on this and it's a bit hard if we can't discuss things.

Edit: I looked at the added functions and it seems redundant, can't we modify the current functions with an extra argument for the AHBot ?

The last thing you posted shows the Anti-Freeze kicking in, weird though that it errors out after that

Hmm ok, I'm currently kind of busy with business projects so I'll delay this for a bit, good idea to keep discussion for this in 1 topic though

I recompile this morning with today's xeros155 repo and I have these strange errors

strange isn't it ?

Yeah, I did encounter them too, and they went away after a while, yet I have no clue why they are occurring because I removed all code that called that function.

@Cyberium: Have you encountered this during development of your branch ?

Update

Linux compilation errors should be fixed now.

I'll take a look at the linux compile errors tomorrow.

Don't understaind what you are refering. mangosd.conf? I only forget to set correct default value for general use in place of my test value...

For example http://github.com/cyberium/mangos/commit/34d36578dd44697bfda23bc074d669e284e02951#diff-8 why did you modify genrevision ?

The SQL table was a good idea, today we begin to have :

mangods.conf

scriptdev.conf

realmd.conf

playerbot.conf

and another one for ahbot ?

SQL is your friends

That might indeed be a good idea, however we should check if there's a way to use the already made config libraries/tools as to avoid a lot of rewriting

I have now in xeross155 ah these debug output

I was wondering how to remove them please ?

I think I added them as normal output I'll degrade them to debug output or something

Cyber slow down dude, I can't keep up with porting all the changes you're making ^^

Also check what you commit Cyber, I've checked 2 commits of you so far and you've commited changes to files that shouldn't be changed in the first place.

I also understand some of the config variables in the DB should be in the config file, but can we reload them if they are. And also for the per-item modifications I think for that using the DB would be best.

I have tryed to create a patch but it seems I received a lot of more code thant expected (more thant 10 times the size of an "auctionhouse.patch")

Did I make a mistake ?

Updated the first post, copy the new command to make a patch and it should work again.

I am currently implementing cyber's changes for the non-character ahbot into mine, making some decent progress, will look at the buyer

Edit

Guess what I did

Repository updated and need for a character removed, both buyer and seller are tested on both ally and horde.

Credits added for cyberium and version bumped to x004

................

Hmm my AHBot indeed only populates the alliance AH, back to the drawing board, I might as well start porting over cyber's changes.

Can anyone confirm that my branch only populates the Alliance AH ?

The only thing my branch is behind on is the fact it still uses a character instead of an NPC, however I do have some optimizations in my code, I should take a look at it and take over some stuff from cyberium basically merging the branches.

I can think of 2 things:

1. Their DB guy is lazy/unavailable

2. They did this to reduce the load of a DDoS

Well guys, enjoy, you need Visual Studio 2010 with C# installed.

(Url in main post)

Guess I can share the source code as I'm gonna rewrite it in python anyways, will see what I can do.

Try cloning the git repository again from scratch.

I have a lot of projects, so this isn't really top priority, though I do plan on finishing it someday.

the error says faild to load one or more projects. and im talking about when i go to compile mangos

What version of Visual Studio are you using, and what file are you trying to open, and no you're not talking about compiling you're talking about opening the visual studio solution

I assume you mean Visual Studio, and how do you mean cannot load all the projects, are you getting any errors ?

Perhaps use cross-faction grouping patch, however you do need to form a party for that.

What Forusim means is that friends can just keep killing eachother over and over again, for what is basically free gold.
