Since the update, I can't make the game update, I have already disable all the modds, clean all the files concerning the game and even if i try to reinstall it, I can't even choose where I want the new files to go, it just install it and then don't want to update bacause of an error that I can't act on

In case you are real Balake, could you add a way to disable the enforced nameplates distance option? I do not use 2.x versions cause of that
Just to keep those 200 yard nameplates for BGs huh
How much advantage is too much advantage
The jinn is out of the bottle for long, what's your point? If another team can have it, I will have it too

Like what the fuck. It practically bricked my game - I was playing perfectly fine with stable 180 FPS without ANY Mod whatsoever. After forcefully installing that against my will with todays updates you bricked my game to 60-90 FPS at best. I have a backup folder of the whole directory and when I start the old version I still have my 180FPS. You basically lost me as a player here and I will make sure that when my RL Friends stop playing on Ascension that they don´t come here to a server where such shady practices are at play.
>bricked
>60 GPS
Choose one. You're a moron if you think you need 180fps in a game optimized for 60 and regularly played at 30. Wtf is wrong with you.

I have emailed OctoWoW about that and talked to Kistrel (though you guys stopped replying to my emails 3 days ago)
I do NOT give permission to have my mod SuperWoW redistributed by OctoWoW. I am not affiliated with them and don't endorse any private servers.

I could understand the first time being an oversight by an engineer who didn't realize the license as explained by Kistrel, but to not abide by my wishes for the 2nd time is disappointing and sad.
I urge you to take this into serious consideration. Remove SuperWoW from the launcher, from the torrent link, and from the direct download ZIP.

Really sorry about this Balake. A dev accidentally included the dll in the repacked client they created and nobody noticed.
We have since removed the mod from the client and apologies for the mistake.

I always see a lot of TWoW dev mockery here from the staff, "We fixed all the bugs that TWoW could never!"... I don't recall TWOW bricking people's clients or stealing other people's work. ;)
Its like every time the server is starting to see some growth you shoot yourselves in the foot. Maybe it's 5D chutes and ladders. Pigs get fat hogs get slaughtered.

VanillaFixes included through launcher update contains trojan lol

oh nice my whole game is bricked now... launcher reports error message when trying to start and starting manually doesn't do nothing lol

why did you include vanilla fixes that brick the whole fucking game? everything worked just perfectly without them... T_T

needed to delete that d3 file since cant get vulkan support to work lol launcher says game is already running but doesn't start it at all, but got it to work from manual wow.exe for now at least :S

Ya we have fixed a million Twow bugs. We also transitioned to a bittorent only launcher which is difficult to get software working on 40k+ machines. We also had to repack the client because there was no room left to make MPQ patches without interfering with client mods.

you could always just download the torrent that works perfectly if the WIP launcher is giving you trouble. Twow didnt have a launcher for 5+years.
Also stealing other peoples work... really?

My Game works Fine before the Update. Dont know what happen.

I just wanted to say how grateful I am that you’re doing this. After all, the server and the gameplay are free. What you’ve built there is tremendous, and I’m happy to be a part of it, even if things don’t always run perfectly. To anyone complaining: view it as an opportunity for growth. You aren’t dogs waiting to be fed by a master; these are creative people making their project available for free, and I think they’re doing a fantastic job. I’ve already enjoyed so many hours of fun. Thank you for that!

See ya ingame

Noone tell this guy how Shenna got the core for TWOW - "I don't recall TWOW bricking people's clients or stealing other people's work. ;) "
