Is there a good place to go, maybe the WoW version of LOTROinterface to learn about LUA scripting or tutorials, that sort of thing?

MrJackdaw 07-22-2010 12:38 AM

Not yet, as nobody has seen the syntax yet!

i got a question for you knowledgeable types...

will this lua script make it possible to change the mouse icon??

size...shape..color...etc????

:D

MrJackdaw 07-22-2010 09:49 AM

Maybe... maybe not!

You won't be able to change the mouse icon atm according to Narrel.

I really look forward to this! Although the functionality so far is quite limited, what Narrel said is currently included in the API satisfy a lot of the basic things I would want to modify/fix/unbreak. And it can only improve, probably...

I really love Lua as a language, it has all the good stuff :). I really look forward to start writing addons again.

What I really hope they open up to the API is the combat log. Fine, they don't have to include all the event info WoW has if they don't want us to make boss mods. But, the current state of the combat log is appalling, it's hardly readable, and contains virtually no useful information. With a proper API to it we could clean up the output to actually be useful/readable. And we could make a full HUD.

And we could most likely borrow a lot of code from WoW addons, just replace the proprietary API calls with new ones.

okies...the NDA is lifted....

for those in the Beta...what are you working on???????


:D

MrJackdaw 08-03-2010 02:08 PM

There are a lot of really interesting things going on out there! HUD's and Buff bars and new Vitals... Nice nice nice!

And me? I am beginning to realise how rusty I am with LUA...

I am working on a travel window.

For us who aren't in the closed beta, is there somewhere to check out the apis? Or can any of you in the beta post the patch notes/apis here, without breaking some Turbine rules?

Basically, no. We are not allowed to copy anything from the beta forums to outside, and that includes the API docs and patch notes.
