There is no longer any reason to delete the creature cache, as it is no longer possible (since patch 6.0.2) for addons to detect rare spawns (or anything else) by scanning the cache.

Sure ok, but still, this might be usefull for something else later.

So, yeah, is it possible to replace \enUS\ by some kind of wildcard ?

Sorry for digging this post up but i have a question similar to this.

Here's what i use

@echo off
echo.

REM Variable block below.  Change to match your settings if you get an error.

set wowdir="D:\World of Warcraft\
set wow_process64="Wow-64.exe"
set wow_process32="Wow.exe"

set launcher_file=%wowdir%World of Warcraft Launcher.exe"

set creature_file=%wowdir%Cache\WDB\enUS\creaturecache.wdb"
set error_files=%wowdir%Errors\*"
set archive_files=%wowdir%Logs\archive\*"

set wow_mfil=%wowdir%WoW.mfil"
set wow_pfil=%wowdir%WoW.pfil"
set wow_tfil=%wowdir%WoW.tfil"


REM End variable block.  You should not need to change anything below this line.

Now, what do i have to do so that it deletes creaturecache in every language because i have enUS but also frFR

Quote from jerry

adding a limit will probably fix your issue.

s = s:gsub("%[([^]]*)%]", "%1", 1)

Just noticed an issue, when someone link at least 2 items in the same line, his name is correctly formatted, but the first item gets formatted aswell, the [] are removed from the first item, the second items is fine, with []

Quote from Arrowmaster

s = s:gsub("|Hplayer:(.-)|h%[(.-)%]|h", "|Hplayer:%1|h%2|h")

That one doesn't work Arrow :|

Yes ! apparently it did :)

Or hmm actually what you suggest remove everything between any [] even if i type [test] in chat it won't appear. Any way to only remove the [] from players name ?

Thanks ! omg finally, had almost no hair left to pull :)

Allright, i've been trying for about 3 hours before asking here, and http://lua-users.org/wiki/StringLibraryTutorial didn't help me much so

I'm using gsub like this to reformat my chat gsub('%[Guild%]', '(g)') and it works just fine, but there's one thing i really can't manage to do.

In my chat, every names are formatted like this [Name], i'm trying to remove the [] no matter what chat they're tying in

for example, someone typing in raid looks like (rl) [misterx]: test, and i want to have it like this (rl) misterx: test. Same goes for whispers, guild etc etc, anyone good with this ?

Quote from Seerah

Anyone who has scripts set up for their frames gets that. If you are no longer using a layout that uses scripts, then you can delete the old layout(s) you still have saved.

Ok well it's only a print line anyway, so i've simply removed it. Thanks.

Well, apparently it's only going wrong on a newly created character, if i don't put that line in, the combat log stays docked to the ChatFrame1, if i put it in, it's being moved where i want it but gives that error.

I've tried :SetUserPlaced(true) instead but that didn't do anything :|

Edit: oh and it only does it "once". if i move the frame manually then reload ui, it's correctly placed and gives no error anymore on that character. So basically not a big deal, just weird. (for me)

Thanks that helped, for the second point, it was KgPanels, that's weird.

Anyway, there's something weird i've noticed aswell. it's the ChatFrame2 (the combat log)

if i don't put the following line, it doesn't care of my positionning.

ChatFrame2.SetPoint = function() end

but if i put it in, it's being positionned correctly but gives this error

Any ideas ?

Didn't find anything about this nor anyone reporting it so i'm afraid it's only me, anyway, whenever i login into the game or reload ui, i'm getting this in my chatframe

Is there anything i can do to stop this from displaying every time ?

I'm setting up some default for my chat frames, like this for example

cTweaks:RegisterEvent('PLAYER_LOGIN')
function cTweaks:PLAYER_LOGIN()
 ChatFrame1:ClearAllPoints()
 ChatFrame1:SetPoint('TOPLEFT', UIParent, 'CENTER', 245, -312)
 ChatFrame1:SetHeight(116.5)
 ChatFrame1:SetWidth(312)
 ChatFrame1.SetPoint = function() end
 
 ChatFrame2:ClearAllPoints()
 ChatFrame2:SetPoint('TOPRIGHT', UIParent, 'CENTER', -245, -336.5)
 ChatFrame2:SetHeight(92)
 ChatFrame2:SetWidth(312)
 ChatFrame2:SetJustifyH'RIGHT'
 ChatFrame2.SetPoint = function() end
 
 for i = 1, 4 do
  SetChatWindowAlpha(i, 0)
  SetChatWindowLocked(i, 1)
  SetChatWindowSize(i, 9)
 end
 
 for i = 3, 4 do
  SetChatWindowDocked(i, 1)
 end
end

As i have 4 chatframes it works just fine, but when i log in on a new character for example it forces it to create chatframe3 and 4, how could i do it so it affect 3 and 4 only if they exists ?

Second question, i've had this for a while in my chat when i login, does anyone have a clue where it comes from ?

Setting up scripts for LOAD
Setting up scripts for EVENT
Setting up scripts for LOAD
Setting up scripts for SHOW
Setting up scripts for EVENT
Setting up scripts for UPDATE

Anyway, thanks all, everything works now :)

Well, i don't understand, everything works now thanks for that, just not the loot function
No matter if i write it with a . or a : it doesn't autoroll greed like it's supposed to, it doesn't do anymore errors though.

local cTweaks = CreateFrame('Frame', nil, UIParent)
cTweaks:SetScript('OnEvent', function(self, event, ...) self[event](self, ...) end)
cTweaks:RegisterEvent('START_LOOT_ROLL')
function cTweaks:START_LOOT_ROLL(_, _, id) (OR WITH .)
 if id
  and (select(4, GetLootRollItemInfo(id)) == 2)
  and not (select(5, GetLootRollItemInfo(id))) then
   RollOnLoot(id, 2)
 end
end

The only way i've found to have it work is to put it in a separate file with this format

local cTweaks = CreateFrame('Frame', nil, UIParent)
cTweaks:RegisterEvent('START_LOOT_ROLL')
cTweaks:SetScript('OnEvent', function(_, _, id)
 if id
  and (select(4, GetLootRollItemInfo(id)) == 2)
  and not (select(5, GetLootRollItemInfo(id))) then
   RollOnLoot(id, 2)
 end

Do you know why it doesn't work when i put it in the main file and how to fix it ?
