[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] [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.

With the Diablo 3 beta coming soon (hopefully announced at BlizzCon) maybe we should look into getting WIM ready for it and i think it should start with the Icon

I was looking at the Battle.net website and i noticed this



i did some editing and manged to get this



added it to class_icons.tga (the image here is png)

Edit i know the image is very rough if someone with better GIMP (photoshop) skillz can make it look better please do



then added the codes for the image to work in the skins.lua

Code:

               druid = {0, 0, 0, .25, .25, 0, .25, .25},
                hunter = {.25, 0, .25, .25, .5, 0, .5, .25},
                mage = {.5, 0, .5, .25, .75, 0, .75, .25},
                paladin = {.75, 0, .75, .25, 1, 0, 1, .25},
                priest = {0, .25, 0, .5, .25, .25, .25, .5},
                rogue = {.25, .25, .25, .5, .5, .25, .5, .5},
                shaman = {.5, .25, .5, .5, .75, .25, .75, .5},
                warlock = {.75, .25, .75, .5, 1, .25, 1, .5},
                warrior = {0, .5, 0, .75, .25, .5, .25, .75},
gm = {.25, .5, .25, .75, .5, .5, .5, .75},
blank = {.5, .5, .5, .75, .75, .5, .75, .75},
                deathknight = {.75, .5, .75, .75, 1, .5, 1, .75},
-- blank = {0, .75, 0, 1, .25, .75, .25, 1},
-- blank = {.25, .25, .25, 1, .5, .75, .5, 1},
d3 = {.5, .75, .5, 1, .75, .75, .75, 1},
                sc2 = {.75, .75, .75, 1, 1, .75, 1, 1}

as you can see with the above code i organized it to match the image location and added in the placement of the last 2 icons (not needed though)

Edit: updated with cleaner DIII image view new post for comparison.

Looks good. I'll keep this post in mind when Diablo is released. The quality is sufficient for the class icon. As you can see form your image you posted, there is no white clipping edges so its perfect.

[lothaer]

glad you like them.

[lothaer]

Here's the comparison from the original image i used to the new one

             Original                        New



as you can see the new image is much cleaner.

[lothaer]

with the Diablo 3 in beta and the new name feature being added to bnet i think WIM is going to need some serious TLC.
