Re: Help needed - Auto-loot still always enabled

I had that problem as well, and was unable to fix it without a full reinstall of the game. It's possible something else could have done it, but that's what I ultimately landed on, and it did work.

was anyone able to run it on Linux? I get a memory read error with bottles
I run the game through proton, and I get that same error trying to run vanillafixes, but the stock executable works just fine.

I was hoping for Ironforge, but I'll take Southshore and Chillwind Camp. Thank you! :-)

Re: Hyper spawns in Northwind

Pretty much all of the custom Turtle zones are that way; the spawn timer is extremely fast. I just did the Tower of Lapidis yesterday, and the trash was spawning almost as quickly as we could clear it.

I agree. The spawn timers should slow down a bit.

Colour-changing pets?

Due to a bug, in the early days of WOW, there were some tameable beasts that would randomise their appearance on every load. Blizzard eventually removed that, but it was popular and well-loved. Do we have colour-changing pets in Octo?

Re: Multibox should be forbidden

I'm inclined to agree. I was always neutral on multiboxing, but *far* too many times have I been out in the world just trying to quest, and a set of multibox characters comes steamrolling through the area, AOE grinding everything around. It's incredibly frustrating to play with that sort of nonsense ...

Re: Client Upgrade and 25 Quest Log

It seems like the patching itself may be prone to error -- absolutely nothing worked right after I patched the client, and after fairly heroic troubleshooting I got the game to load, and got into the world, but it was riddled with errors. Reinstalling from scratch, however, worked just fine with no ...

Re: What If The Developers Turned Off Almost All Chat in OctoWoW?

While Mauden is right -- that feeling of newness and mystery is probably not available in a game as old as this, that everybody already knows so well -- I'm four-square in favour of reducing the amount of chat spam. World channels are awful, and the very first thing I do on every character I create ...

Re: Alliance Boat Routes

I support this, if only because Stormwind Harbour is awful and I hate it. Menethil is where it's at, and where it should continue to be at. It's another step toward restoring Ironforge to its rightful place as capital of the Alliance.
