[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] [Hentaya]: No more wiki?
[Guest] [Hentaya]: All the wiki links seem to bring me to the forums.
[Guest] [menace97]: the latest wim (3.5.9) i download still reads in-game as 3.4.2. ?
[Guest] [Hentaya]: Good thing the shoutbox doesn't have timestamps.
[Guest] [ravensong]: Is WIM going to be updated for the new patch? It gets a LUA error every time people log on bnet or pst me, because "
[Guest] [ravensong]: "surname" is now a nil value.
[Guest] [Dethedrus]: Since WiM is obviously quite dead, is there ANYTHING else out there that even comes close to replicating it's functionality?
[Guest] [Harshmage]: So the "surname" can be removed from the realID detection, in WIM.lua
[Guest] [Harshmage]: but fixing the tutorial popup and other errors is probably not going to happen without a major rework
[Guest] [menace97]: quite dead?
[Guest] [Nytetears]: I am trying out tell track I wish WIM would update I much prefer it but there are too many errors to try and use it now
[Guest] [Erudan]: Wim is being updated on Curse.
[Guest] [Chiaki]: Hello guys! I'm the one who did the German translation of WIM. The translation is somewhat old so tell me where to provide a new version .
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: Check out my new post in the General Discussion. Please report any errors as I can't check them myself.
lothaer pokes Pazza. Hey!
lothaer is overcome with boredom. Oh the drudgery!
lothaer roars with bestial vigor. So fierce!
lothaer cries.
lothaer falls asleep. Zzzzzzz.
lothaer , in quiet contemplation, mourns the loss of the dead.
lothaer tells a joke.
lothaer yawns sleepily.

Ok yesterday's release wasn't perfect. Lets hope that this release fixes everyone's issues. I was able to reproduce all the issues people reported except for the FriendsList problem with BattleNet showing as offline. I modified the code which handles friendlist updates so lets how this resolves it.

Change Log

•     Fixed issue when receiving messages from realID users.
•     Invite & Ignore now work for realID messages from users on the same realm.
•     Fixed bug where items were not linking into WIM windows.
•     Added extra check for realID class colors.
•     Fixed bug with intercepting whisper slash commands.

Thanks.

Still getting this problem.


Edit: NEVERMIIIIND. For some reason the stupid curse client is not updating addons correctly...I had to manual install and now it works!

[Clixzy]

Not sure if this is a WIM issue, but it seems the ability to link items is there, but the ability to link achievements is not. Gets "This achievement is already completed" error on the top of middle of my screen where you get the "this item can't be used" and the such, I am able to link achievements fine in guild, raid...etc.

[Bas]

Same as you Clixzy. I can not link achievements still only in WIM chat window, but not in guild or raid chat. Yesterday's release did break both item and achievement linking for me (worked fine in 3.3.4). Now item linking is fixed in 3.3.6, but achievements still can not be linked. When shift clicking achievement red text at top of screen stating "This achievement has already been completed". Now this is the same error that occurs with WIM not installed and shift-clicking when not in an active chat. In that mode the shift-click is trying to add the achievement to the wow quest/achievement tracking system. My best guess is the bug lies with the focus of the WIM window being cleared when the mouse enters the achievement window, and thus the shift-click registers as trying to add to tracking system rather than our current chat window. As I stated this did not happen in 3.3.4. Hope that helps you get to the bottom of it Pazza. Thanks for all the great work you do on this addon even though you don't play any more.

[Pazza]

There is a better Way for me to do it but it might cause tainting issues. I guess I will have to try it and see...

Hi.
On german servers where wow 3.3.5 is not yet available the new wim-version does not work. you always get four failures and wim is always recognised from the game as version 3.3.5 not 3.3.6!
I updated Wim over the curseclient and by hand.

you need to install the previous version the German (EU) servers have not been updated to 3.3.5 yet (AFAIK) and you will get a error sorry.

[snowboyak08]

well, this was almost perfect, but I managed to find one other minor bug with it: can't link quests, and achievements that have/havent been completed.

are you playing on EU or US?

Same issue as I stated above, I did not try quests though. I am on US.

This is a battle.net issue you CANNOT send links via battle.net you can ONLY send them to players on your server NOT a WIM issue.

I've tried linking quests/achieves through to people that arent on my "battle.net" friends list, and it still shows up an error on achieves of "This achievement has already been completed", and for quests, it wont go through at all.

[Stewart]

Achievement links are only valid on the realm they came from, item links are only valid on realms on which that item is 'out there'. All links are only valid within WoW, so it makes sense that they can't be sent if this is a restriction on battle.net

[Pazza]

Linking will be fixed in a later release
