Forgot to add the conf.dist.in mods. # PERFORMANCE SETINGS # # AltLib # Used to load a different scripting engine than the default MaNGOSSCripts library # Default: "" # "scripting_library_file_name" DO NOT PUT LIBRARY EXTENTION!!! (.dll/.so) # AltLib = "" I think that's all.

Please bear with me as I haven't programmed in years... Yes... Years (~10). Anyway. I find it quite annoying to have to rename my MaNGOSScript.dll each and every time I build a new version of SD2 etc, so I made a little mod that will look up a new entry in the mangosd.conf called AltLib and will try to load the .dll/.so attached to that tag. I'm thinking this could be very useful for other mods/DBs/scripting used with MaNGOS. It's actually very simple... Feel free to bash my head in if you feel like it or see an easier way to do it! @@ -1131,13 +1131,29 @@ void World::SetInitialWorldSettings() objmgr.LoadSpellScripts(); // must be after load Creature/Gameobject(Template/Data) objmgr.LoadGameObjectScripts(); // must be after load Creature/Gameobject(Template/Data) objmgr.LoadEventScripts(); // must be after load Creature/Gameobject(Template/Data) sLog.outString( "Initializing Scripts..." ); - if(!LoadScriptingModule()) - exit(1); - + // Alternate script engine library loading + std::string AltLib = sConfig.GetStringDefault("AltLib", ""); + char const* sAltName = AltLib.c_str(); + + if(strlen(sAltName)) + { + // Load alternate library + sLog.outString( "Loading script engine library: %s", sAltName ); + if(!LoadScriptingModule(sAltName)) + exit(1); + } + else + { + // bailout w/ default lib + sLog.outString( "Loading default MaNGOS script engine."); + if(!LoadScriptingModule()) + exit(1); + } + ///- Initialize game time and timers sLog.outString( "DEBUG:: Initialize game time and timers" ); m_gameTime = time(NULL); m_startTime=m_gameTime; PS: Before it is to be committed we should talk to SD2's people and kindly ask them to change their library name output to something like: scriptdev2.dll/.so instead of MaNGOSScript... Anyway, that's that. Thank you for your time! LoL

Fixes/changes for the Paladin class was like 3 pages long... And that barely grazes the surface...

Bah! Ice cream is bad! It's COLD and SWEET! *shivers*

Soon could also be resumed as: When it's ready.
