So... Which is the patch in this thread we should try to use? People have posted several and I have no idea which to use.

Okay nice thank you for all, but another question again... (omg you gonna kill me) how do I apply this :

http://pastebin.ca/1344614

In my DB ? (And this is in mangos too?) I try copy/stick but not sure that good work.

Thx for all !

Khamul~

Since you're on an old revision I'm assuming you're using SVN.

After you have MaNGOS checked out in SVN, go: http://pastebin.ca/raw/1344614 save page as patch.patch or something ending with .patch. Then right click on your SVN MaNGOS folder -- go to SVN > Patch > Apply Patch and select patch.patch and then right click on the box and say "Patch all". Should patch all your files, then compile and you'll have arena in there.

Can you also develop this for mangos-0.12 or is compatible with both?

Nice, glad to always see work still done on mangos-0.12 too!

Great work! I'll be testing soon on mangos-0.12

Just to double check, MAPS only, NOT vmaps, correct?

EDIT: Works fine on mangos-0.12 <3

talent rate = 0 in config?

I probably should have said I only want to disable a few, BC ones to be exact, sorry I didn't make myself clear.

This can be done in the database. Type .near and it'll give you a linked graveyard ID. Go into the MaNGOS database, in the game_graveyard_zone delete that idea, then .near again until you've deleted all the graveyards for that zone. There's around 3 or so in Stranglethorn to clear our for Gurubashi arena.

Yeah I see what you mean how it's an aura now. I'm not sure what I would do to disable it.

I had a friend that said when he was on a server those talents we're greyed out. Like not even selectable, that possible?

I've seen this be possible on MaNGOS servers but I have no idea how. I'm sure this is somewhere in the code but I'm not sure where or what to input. I searched for this and no results relating to what I had came out.

Any ideas?

Yeah sorry, I just found out a recent revision caused this corruption in the quests, I'm not sure which but I was on 7110 then when I went to 7122 it started happening. I suppose it's not this patch, sorry.

What exactly DOES this patch fix?

To be honest I think they worked around this typo. I tried this patch and it caused quests to display incorrectly when interacting with an NPC.

Mail a little buggy still.

Rev. 7072

These should be logged in db that makes it much easier to see if someone is reported multiple times.

I see what you mean, but logging is normally put into files, eg: server logging, GM logging, RA logging, DB error logging, etc.

That's why I asked for it to be done that way. I'll be testing the new one out soon.

But I mean I completely agree database would be better and easier to read. When we submit this to the devs we'll see their opinion on what is best.

O_O. I would hate that. << Just my opinion, hate it as I couldn't play it that hard, not hating your patch.

And I couldn't help but notice,

I have created a modified core

I have not created it yet

this is strange, i tested it multiple times and it worked just fine... did anyone else test this and can report his findings?

It's not working for me either, running on rev. 6985 opposing factions can fight, but the same faction cannot fight in arena locations.

Sorry to keep you waiting so long, Charlie; I'll be testing this out today on rev. 6963 and I'll report back with the details.

Nice job MaNGOS!

Alright I've tested it, it works fine chat wise. A sample report:

2008-12-22 00:19:57 Reported spam:Spamer: Sargarix (Guid 5291) , Message : Type: [1], Channel: [], Player Name: [sargarix], Text: [hwjerwer] , Reporter : Henhouse

So I decided to try Mailbox report spam, this actually logs too! However it's a little different. It returned with:

2008-12-22 00:24:14 Reported spam:Spamer: Henhouse (Guid 2) , Message : , Reporter : Sargarix

Other than that this is really good! Once it's finished I think it'll get added to the source. Great work charlie2025.

Looks great charlie2025! I'm currently compiling MaNGOS now, I'll write back how it works. (Sorry if I double post).

Oh by the way, I had to use $patch -p1 < patch.diff; $git apply gave lots of errors, mostly the white space errors.

Last patching line said: "patch unexpectedly ends in middle of line" I assume that's okay right?

I've often noticed they report spam feature has never worked; I've been wondering... how hard would it be to program one? I could see it save into a file like Spam.log and you can enable it/disable. Then it could record it something like:

2008-12-21 11:03:19 Character: Tester1 Text: Reported Spam goes here. Reported by: Tester2

Any other ideas, suggestions?

Is this why renames are bugged at the moment?

If your referring to video recording programs I would try Fraps for Windows or ScreenFlow for Mac. Other than that, there is no automatic core recorded, if I understood that correctly.

Bravo ChanF07! I haven't tried it, but I'm 95% sure this will work perfectly. Thank you!

Hmm, good idea but no idea where to look for that.
