[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 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.

[Pazza]

Thank you everyone for your patience and bug reports this past 24 hours. This update fixes the errors reported as well as a patched WhoLib (thank you Sylvanaar). Your /who's should be working again as well as your guild frames/management.

For those who watch addon memory, you'll notice that this update has been optimized.

Some have reported the game crashing when minimizing windows. If this happens to you, please confirm that it crashes only when the minimap icon is disabled. To stop the crash temporarily, you can disable window animations in:
/wim    General->Display Options.

I would also like to note to any translators out there, I am sorry. WIM is not ready to be localized yet. Although the localization system is in place, I have not declared all the definitions yet. I will try to get that done in the next day or two. If anyone is interested in translating, please send me a private message.

Any questions, throw them at the forums. Thank you for everyone's help.

Hi

Many thanks for that wonderful jobs.

-
Is it possible to modify (by me) the addon to make its interface more "blizzard" like ?

-
Goodbye.

You should be able to make a skin for it.

Please PLEASE add the Tabbed Whispers back to this addon. I am going nuts without it.

[Pazza]

:-) I'm working on fixing people's bugs atm. Sometime next week you'll have the tab options again.

[dhnht]

How do I put windows in tab mode now with the npdate to 3.0?
I just get 1 window at a time and if I am whispering 3 people at a time how do I change to each one without tabs?

[aeular]

This post explains tabbing as it stands in 3.0.2, its not fully there, but its something for you

[digitalnoise]

FYI WIM crashes the entire WoW Client for me every time I minimize the whisper window - and I am running the newest version that you released 10.23.2008.

The Blizzard crash reporter catches it, but the issue seems to be with the "memory could not be read".

If this is something new, I can get you the exact text of the message - and it's definitely repeatable.

The only other mods I'm running are TitanPanel (default addon's only); full Carbonite, IceHUD, and WIM.

Disabling the window animation seemed to fix the problem.  I'm just reporting it because your note says that it seems to only happen when the mini-map icon is disabled, and that's not the case.  I have the mini-map icon (the little bubble) and it crashed until I turned off animation.

[Pazza]

This is one of those problems that are going to take a while to pinpoint... If I would replicate it on my system it would make things so much easier. It is due to animations, I am working on it. I promise you that.

I can tell you exactly how I do it on my system, but I have a feeling you might've already tried that.

If capturing the debug data from the Blizzard dump would be of any help, I'll be happy to supply it.

[Pazza]

Unfortunately it is a C dump not pertaining to lua so it wont be much help to me.
It can't be a divide by zero error so it has to be something else. What are your normal frame rates. I doubt they are low, I have a feeling it is happening to people with a high frame rate. perhaps throttling it would be helpful.

Let me know what you think. and what yours frame rates are.

I'm at work at the moment, but my frame rate generally stays in the 51-60 range.

If it matters at all, I'm running the game at 24-bit color, 1680x1050, everything on high except for shadow detail (that one stumps my card for some reason).

[Pazza]

The pattern I am seeing is for those with high fps like yours. (thats a good thing not a bad :-))

Anyway. I am going to try throttling the frame update for the animation.

[Araidine]

So ummm...where's the clear history option?
