Hook Emotes

[Guest] [joshmiller83]: Can we get an Astrolabe fix please? Or has WIM stopped being developed?
[DevTeam] [Astaldo]: You can disable wim2wim for now or visit the forum thread where you originally posted the issue
[DevTeam] [Zeke]: Yay for spam!
[DevTeam] [Zeke]: ....
[DevTeam] [Zeke]: I love that I get emailed when someone reports spam on the boards, but I can't do anything about it.
[DevTeam] [Nachonut]: lol i got you
[DevTeam] [Astaldo]: How about "hide email address from public checked" and it's still visible in all my posts...
[DevTeam] [Astaldo]: I'd delete my account on this site, but by the time I realized the problem half the spambots on the planet had it already
[Developer] [Pazza]: Astaldo if you log out and view your profile with a refresh you'll see that your email is hidden.
[Developer] [Pazza]: Your user level on the forums permit you to see emails even though they are marked hidden.
[DevTeam] [Astaldo]: Ah.. thanks for the clarification and apologies for "crying wolf" in that case :
[DevTeam] [Kaidenn]: PAZZA! i miss you.
[DevTeam] [Nachonut]: Lol, it's funny how it takes spam message reports to get me to come back
[DevTeam] [sylvanaar]: Check out the beta tester forum. Need alpha testers and feedback so I can come up with a maintenance plan.
[Developer] [Pazza]: loaded some new spam prevention modules... lets see if this stops the bastards.
[DevTeam] [Maziel]: Thought I'd check in and say Howdy Doody from Australia
[DevTeam] [Maziel]: Yeah the spam from shoes salesmen was becoming insane
[Guest] [Delakando]: What ever happened to the ability to track friend's location by wim? Other then just showing their general zone location.
Zeke pokes his head around the corner.
[DevTeam] [Zeke]: Anybody home?
[Guest] [Theillur]: I would like to know if it is just me.
[Guest] [Theillur]: http://www.wimaddon.com/forums/index.php/topic,1796.0.html
[Guest] [Nev]: I'm here
[Guest] [Nev]: I don't think anyone else is though
[Guest] [tomasio]: great site [url=http://freeonlinemusicvideos.net].[/url] [url=http://freepeopleclothing.org].[/url]
[Guest] [Theillur]: Nev it is not working for Zeke as well.
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: im here
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: ...

[DevTeam] [lothaer]: sooooooooooooooooo
[Guest] [j3ff]: Hello. It is very quiet. I would love a response to my thread directly below your "Been very quiet" thread!
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: Check out my new post in the Skins forum
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: Posted a new download in the skins forum check it out
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: Zeke, Maziel, Pazza, Nachonut, sylvanaar, Kaidenn, Astaldo where are you?
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: It would be a real shame if WIM was left to die.
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: i think these forums are dead, Sylvanaar dosnt post on them as he only bug fixes when possible. WIMs future isnt very bright
[Guest] [justgiz]: Yea, its rather sad.
[Guest] [silvercola]: I wish it had skype
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: noy possible for a addon to do.
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: ...........
[Guest] [elzershark]: where is the download file?
lothaer beckons everyone over to you.
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: has anyone been able to take WIM to the beta yet?
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: PTR*
[DevTeam] [Maziel]: *sticks head up and looks around*
lothaer cries.
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: who the hell flagged my post as spam?
[Guest] [primalforce]: Hey guys

Pazza,
  Here is the old plugin function for smilies that I am trying to update but couldnt find anything on the new API, please modify it to use the current api for polling WIM emotes or point me in the right direction.
  I have everything working except the WIM plugin function.

Thanks in advance.


peace~


function smiley_plugwim()
  if(packages["WIM"]==nil) then
    if (IsAddOnLoaded("WIM") and WIM.CompareVersion("2.4.9") < 0 and WIM_getEmoteFilePath(":-)")~="") then

--example of how to write a plugin pack. WIM_getEmoteFilePath(theEmote) returns an absolute path to the appropriate texture, you can just provide a string
--wim does it that way because emotes are based on user's current skin
 smiley_registerpackage("WIM",{
 ["Happy"]=WIM_getEmoteFilePath(":-)"),
 ["Biggrin"]=WIM_getEmoteFilePath(""),
 ["Sad"]=WIM_getEmoteFilePath(":-("),
 ["Whoa"]=WIM_getEmoteFilePath(":O"),
 ["Fun"]=WIM_getEmoteFilePath(""),
 ["Wink"]=WIM_getEmoteFilePath(";-)"),
 ["Uhh"]=WIM_getEmoteFilePath(":@"),
 ["Cry"]=WIM_getEmoteFilePath(":'-("),
 });
 end
-- end of example
 end

You are right I did change the API. The old method generated so much garbage that I felt it was due for a change.


WIM.GetEmotes()  returns an unpacked list of all the available emotes (but not their aliases, only the main emoticons). For example it will send  : - ) but not : )

WIM.GetEmoteAlias(emote) returns an unpacked list of all the acceptible aliases for that emote.

and then finally:

WIM.GetEmoteTexture(emote) returns the texture path only, nothing more. as a parameter you can pass either the main emote or any of its aliases, it isn't picky :-).

I've just posted an update for smilies on curse. Stopped trying to use wim's emote list since it actually uses wim's emotes anyway. Still screws up on tradeskill links though
