Birthday Money, WoW and Guild Wars

As anyone who knows me will attest, I dabble in programming quite a bit. Normally not actually finishing anything but dabbling non-the-less.
For my birthday I got a little bit of money, with that money I’ve bought myself “World of Warcraft Programming: A Guide and Reference for Creating WoW Addons“. It’s a well recieved book that [...]

Addon Corner - Opie

Rather later than originally intended, here is the 2nd video Addon Corner. Better late than never, eh!
This time covering the Ring-based Shortcut mod, Opie. Again, I apologise for my voiceover… It’ll get better… eventually.

Hope you enjoy it.

Addon Corner: Carbonite Quest

Edit: The version I used is 1.251. For some reason 1.26 wasn’t working for me.
And so, it arrives. Welcome to the return of Addon Corner, this time with video.
In this edition of Addon Corner I cover Carbonite Quest, a world map/quest tracker replacement.
I apologise beforehand about the voice-over, hopefully I’ll get better at it as [...]

About Addon Corner

You may have noticed I haven’t done an Addon Corner for awhile, I’m currently planning on bringing it back in a new video podcast style so you can actually see the addons in use. This will kind of be a trial run for me to see how feasible doing a full on podcast is.

Addon Corner: MrPlow

We all know the feeling, you’ve been questing and grinding, you open your bags to find that quest item you need to use and… there is no way on Azeroth you can find it amongst all that crap. Between vendor trash, cloth and consumables, an individual item just gets lost.
MrPlow (presumably named after the Simpson’s [...]

Addon Corner: Atlasloot

I’ve mentioned Atlas in a previous Addon Corner, so this week I’m going to give a brief overview of Atlasloot.
Atlasloot is a loot browser, it allows you to view various loot tables including Faction and Reputation rewards, PVP gear and instance drops. It can be used on it’s own or attached to a map addon. [...]

Addon Corner: WoW Armory (Guild Bank Features)

The WoW Armory isn’t an in-game addon but with it’s new-fangled guild bank features it’s a really useful tool.
Blizzard introduced the Guild Bank concept in patch 2.3, a shared space for guild members to share items and cash for the greater good. It’s quite versatile in that you can have up to 6 tabs holding [...]

Addon Corner: Talented

Now that patch 2.3 is out you might need to freshen up your addons folder. Patch 2.3 makes a couple of addons I used prior to it obsolete by including either some or all of their functionality available in the default interface. Those two addons were CT_MailMod (which I used for mass mailing) and GFW_TrackMenu [...]

Addon Corner: Cartographer

Cartographer is an addon that replaces the default world map. The default map has the main disadvantage of taking over the entire screen, Cartographer allows it to show in a scalable window as well as having the ability to hide the map frame.

Cartographer also comes with a whole bunch of other useful features, like [...]
