  1. @ DiSlord - Do you think this will have any impact on mage blink spell on hills and some areas. There has been various tests done near the road going up to Ironforge, near Ring of Trials at nagrand and other hill places. Also on orgrimmar on some parts and same for Stormwind. Sometimes mage falls under map. Just asking if by the change in accuracy maybe this can be avoided.
  2. Well for me, server freezes, wheni type acc on (short for account onlinelist) it stays there and does not show anything else, not even the mangos prompt. Players outside the server reported they cant join. This is all with last versions up to now.
  3. Well that was weird. Vladimir is right, dont know how i did not see this.

    Hardcore Server

    Come to the "Dark Side" If you are alliance and get killed by a horde player, your player turns into a horde player and vice versa. Of course that is a lot of work to do regarding spells/talents/reputation and such but it would be like a tag team thing. Prison break Get killed, get send to a jail of some kind, like Gm island place for X period of time. Steal the gold Player gets killed, he/she looses X amount of gold and it just so happens it lands inside the killers pockets. Dude where's my item Same as gold but a random non BoP/BoE found on the bag of the dead player falls off and lands on the hands of the killer. Brazilian Dance Get killed, get permanent /follow command on the killer. You actually don't die but stay and 1 hp and are always following the killer until somebody else kills the killer, which releases you from the killers grasp. If killer kills another player, this player follows the first player that was killed, making a funny /follow line. Alien Invasion Get killed, killer takes hold of your player or the model for it. This is to confuse other players into thinking he/she is still a friend. IQ TKO Get killed, killer learns something you know that he/she does not. For example a flight path, more reputation with a common faction, explored zones, etc. Buff me up scotty Get killed, Killer either gets a buff you had on, or he/she gets a random buff that your character can do. Open Sesame Get killed, Killer gets a special buff for X amount of time. This could be invisibility, Stealth, faster speed, faster regen, flight, etc... This is Sparta! Get killed, all stats for the killer get buffed X amount of times for Y amount of time. Sorry for making some of this up, it is 4:30 AM here, need to finish some C++ programs for today and am just calming myself off with this. Hope some of this ideas somebody will like.
  5. Will like to clarify some of the stuff here. I am a linux user for about 7 years (Caldera) and an ONLY linux user for about 4. Already know Mandriva, Debian, Red Hat, OpenSuSE, Knoppix, Backtrack, Gentoo and others. The one am using right now is Ubuntu, first because i like more how debian manages packages and second because Ubuntu enhances a lot every day. Am a KDE user but KDE 4.1.3 i dont really like it. Waiting for 4.2 . Anyway, first, what i will say was tested on a Pentium 3 1000mhz, with 1GB Ram, a Pentium 4 2.4Ghz with 2 GB RAM and a Pentium Core 2 Duo 8500 with 4GB Ram. All with the same adsl 1024Kbit connection. Running Mangos on, either a console based (Server edition) or gui based (Desktop edition) will give same results for client performance. The only difference you will see, and its obvious, its that having a guid will consume about 300Mbs more. Depending on what stuff you load on the gui, it will grow or shrink 100mb more. For the rest, the network connection, the cpu usage, memory managemente, everything will be 100% ok. You wont have any problems running it in either way. For the "What linux distro should i use", well since linux is the same as Alternatives, choices, multiple selections, then you need to choose wisely. For example, if you want to start off i always recommend my students Ubuntu, Mandriva or OpenSuSE. Although you get more help for Ubuntu because of its popularity and about all 99% problems you encounter will have a solution. I dont recommend staying on one distro since each one has something different to offer, at least the main stream ones like Red Hat, Slackware and Debian. So my advice to you would be, type in google the name of the distro, whichever you found the most, that is the one which probably has more help. Second look for problems that the distro has with your hardware, for example, if you choose ubuntu and you have a nvidia 7200 or something like that type, ubuntu nvidia 7200 bugs or errors. So you know what you are getting youserlf into. You probably wont have any problem whatsoever if you use a pc older than october 2008. and most network devices are "ready for the hud". Hope this helps. You can find me sometimes in the irc channels of ubuntu since that is the main distro in my country.
  6. Am a codeblocks dev. http://www.codeblocks.org/
  7. 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.
  8. http://blogs.gnome.org/newren/2008/03/31/many-different-kinds-of-revision-specifiers/ Interesting blog about VCS Also will this help, at least to be User-Friendly for the eyes to see what changes or revision changes have been made: http://github.com/mangos/mangos/network Or maybe this: http://github.com/mangos/mangos/commits/master/ BTW: To comment on some of the Pros with SVN and Cons with Git, i find it very difficult to see some people have forgotten already how slow and hard it was to get into the svn part of mangos, even more in the last couple of months. As any can see git is amazingly fast, it may not have revision numbering like svn (maybe it will or maybe we have not study enough about it to know how to script/config it) but i rather have a very fast dependable system than one that falls short when it get a lot of people, slow to check all for just wanting to have a numbering. Ideally of course the numbering is very need it since it gives us an idea of what version each and everyone has but maybe we can also find some way of doing this with git. Am still studying it but i do think that it has some kind of way of dealing with this problem.
