comparing behaviour in several places
May 19, 2026 · 19:41
Magmatusk for example
May 19, 2026 · 19:41
Cause I know that Defier Draghar in Ruby Life Pools has this for his charge, but I assume this is why he isn't going anywhere when casting it
May 19, 2026 · 19:41
Really?
May 19, 2026 · 19:41
Data as in sniffs then?
May 19, 2026 · 19:42
xD
May 19, 2026 · 19:42
Things like that cannot be reversed either afaik, there is no spell effect handling in the client (do correct me if I am wrong)
May 19, 2026 · 19:42
Sniffs, db2, etc.

May 19, 2026 · 19:42
Interesting 🤔
May 19, 2026 · 19:42
Okay uh
May 19, 2026 · 19:42
Huh
May 19, 2026 · 19:42
😅
May 19, 2026 · 19:42
Thanks bois ❤️
May 19, 2026 · 19:43
(although I am lost, but yeah)
May 19, 2026 · 19:43
xD
May 19, 2026 · 20:15
are you sure that's the correct spell being used?
May 19, 2026 · 20:17
asking if you saw it being used in sniff
May 19, 2026 · 20:20 (edited)
cause I see 384430 (selector), which triggers 372087 (charge towards dest derived from selector target), which most likely triggers 373114 (attached at) upon cast, which triggers 372088 (direct damage) and 372796 (periodic) on people detected, upon reaching dest it casts 373114 (removes attached at)
May 20, 2026 · 13:54
sniff crash while login, what can i do
May 20, 2026 · 14:42
Start sniffer as admin, retry
May 20, 2026 · 14:52
same issue, and same with mop_5.5.3.67509
May 27, 2026 · 15:04
Would it be a bad idea to take the current master branch and start a legion xpac fork ? Did the message protocol for basic logic, like movement, spells changed that much ?
May 27, 2026 · 16:21
Yes, it did
May 27, 2026 · 16:37
yes and no, individual packet structures have changed
May 27, 2026 · 16:38 (edited)
but the overall protocol (what gets responded with what opcode, like all the ACK stuff) is basically unchanged even compared to 3.3.5
May 27, 2026 · 16:38
Other than uint32 opcode and updatefields
May 27, 2026 · 16:38
i meant on a high level
May 27, 2026 · 16:38
not that
May 27, 2026 · 16:40
Fair enough

Mkay boys rude of me to not introduce myself, 36 old dog freshly out of enterprise software rat race and a lot of boring ass questions.
Started off with some lads, building a local fun server for us to play on, then I realized I am more interested in the actual coding than playing the game (surprise, NOT xD)

Whats the idea behind smart_scripts table having the fat table structure with eventparam0, eventparam1, …
Why not slap a json field ?
Is the schema too loose for ur taste ?
May 28, 2026 · 07:12
Because parsing json is slower than what we’re doing for smart_scripts?
May 28, 2026 · 07:12
:fry:
May 28, 2026 · 07:13
And I am sure there are more reasons as well :lul:
May 28, 2026 · 07:14
I wouldn’t call it a valid reason, since you are only parsing them once on init
May 28, 2026 · 07:14
It’s also not user friendly where you can just alter/add new rows if you just write the sql manually 😛
May 28, 2026 · 08:14
Since we usually don't write raw SAI entries by hand and use dev tools, the format really doesn't matter in the end. And since TC and SAI existed long before json became cool, that's one more reason why it is as it is.
May 28, 2026 · 08:15
I mean.. I know people that actually write it by hand 😄
May 28, 2026 · 08:15
And the fancy tool didn't exist 😛
May 28, 2026 · 08:16
json in c++ was never cool
May 28, 2026 · 08:16
My point prevails :dracthyr_yay:
May 28, 2026 · 08:16
Fking psychopaths
May 28, 2026 · 08:17
😄
May 28, 2026 · 08:21
Was expecting a bigger fight and hostile arguments. Dissapointed

That discussion is just too old. Before that, people wanted lua support
May 28, 2026 · 08:22
Imagine lua support
May 28, 2026 · 08:23
When?
May 28, 2026 · 08:23
After garrisons and housing?
May 28, 2026 · 08:23
Never?
May 28, 2026 · 08:23
:Pepega:
May 28, 2026 · 08:23
Liar
May 28, 2026 · 08:23
Lua ? My brain already went to v8 isolates
May 28, 2026 · 08:34
well about lua, at some point i will need to add it to tc
1
May 28, 2026 · 08:34
:What:
May 28, 2026 · 08:34
Why
May 28, 2026 · 08:34
for areatrigger movement scripts
May 28, 2026 · 08:34
:Weird:
May 28, 2026 · 08:34
Imagine
May 28, 2026 · 08:34
yeah, that thing
May 28, 2026 · 10:06
we dont know her
May 28, 2026 · 10:08
only place i recall that thing is torghast pendulum axes
May 28, 2026 · 10:16
funny enough, cause thats the only spellscripts they ship
May 28, 2026 · 14:33
i remember extracting scene actors from lua because some spawns remained invisible to the client after the scene, pain and agony
May 29, 2026 · 00:48
JSON in database is a horrible idea
May 29, 2026 · 02:07
What are you talking about, they've got a whole column type for it /s
1
May 29, 2026 · 04:54
Postgres agrees
May 29, 2026 · 06:44
Well that's just because half of the world moved to NoSQL
May 29, 2026 · 07:13
I guess it (like most things) comes down to tradeoffs. At work, we use both SQL and NoSQL, but for different purposes, and don't ever really mix them. Typically the API will just pull from both places and present the final combined resource.
May 29, 2026 · 07:26
both have their up and downsides 🤷
May 29, 2026 · 07:28
I used NoSQL for a migration with 90k rows, it was very easy to add and remove fields without having to do any schema upgrade
May 29, 2026 · 08:25
Isnt nosql just a fancy term for unorganized data dumping grounds?
May 29, 2026 · 08:59
NoSQL is the term for non relational databases. Document based pretty much
1
May 29, 2026 · 10:24
You could have 5 unrelated tables with columns (which is just json formatted as grid view), or you can manually have relationships by arbitrary fields without any schema constraint
May 29, 2026 · 10:24
A guild bank could fit as NoSQL, just a big json with all items
May 29, 2026 · 10:25
You usually modify it with transactions anyway, which is a lot easier in NoSQL

Lads question: does anyone uses CLion ? Did you switch cmake toolchain from mingw to vscode? Cmake have trouble finding my prebuilt boost, even though has boost_root.
May 29, 2026 · 10:46
mingw does not work with TC
May 29, 2026 · 10:47
I asked the same question a few months ago, I am using the vs toolset
May 29, 2026 · 10:47
Yeye i had the feeling, switched to vscode toolchain and again Find_Cmake does not work propery
May 29, 2026 · 10:47
Does it also need boost_librarydir ?
May 29, 2026 · 10:48
If you've set BOOST_ROOT then it should not matter at all 😄
May 29, 2026 · 10:48
vscode? Dont think that toolchain exists?
May 29, 2026 · 10:49
Visual studio toolchain sorry
May 29, 2026 · 10:49
For confusion
May 29, 2026 · 10:50
I do not remember having to change anything in the settings 😄
May 29, 2026 · 10:51
I use VS toolchain with ninja generator
May 29, 2026 · 10:51
Ye ill delete the old cmake build cache that was done with mingw toolchain, might be the issue
May 29, 2026 · 10:53
if you use that it is simply 1:1 env variables like you do on windows
May 29, 2026 · 10:54
I mean VS toolchain with ninja as generator. Since internal VS uses exactly the same it works in clion without additional changes
May 29, 2026 · 10:57
clang should also work on windows but i havent tried it for a very long time
May 29, 2026 · 11:00
but its not going to be very convenient if you wanted to avoid installing vs toolchain
May 30, 2026 · 12:03
Is there any chance to check how many ShaderEffects is supported in 4.4.2 client?
Jun 01, 2026 · 12:41
How does aggro range work? Feels to me, like they should aggro from further away?
https://i.imgur.com/Dk4gpEG.gif
Jun 01, 2026 · 12:41
Since they are elites, they should aggro from further away? No?
Jun 01, 2026 · 12:41
this is most likely caused by level scaling
Jun 01, 2026 · 12:42
Huh okay, cause they are level 71 and I am 70
Jun 01, 2026 · 12:42
So the scaling or something on how it works, isn't working then?
