We fully admit that there is more work to do with the CC. I've never denied that.
And actually the release strategy on the new site IS a major step forward.
Doing what we where doing before was BAD, VERY BAD. No its not as easy, and no its not as painless.
These changes overall, had to happen, and in the end we'll all be better for it.
Kaelten.. it's not about the site itself, it's about the client. The yoinking of WAU out from under us and foisting the curse client on us.
Yes the site(wowace.com) is a step forward in aesthetics and possibly behind the scenes functionality but that's not in question. Unless I am missing something..
I am guessing everyone that has issue with the client sees it as a major step backward from what we were used to, myself included. Why couldn't WAU run parallel with CC until CC was on it's feet? Then you could phase out WAU. You've read the complaints and they are beginning to show a pattern. Please step back, take relaxing breath, grab your favorite beverage of choice, get a massage, take a nap, go out and eat, then come back and look at this with fresh eyes.

I didn't intend to make this a "witch hunt", as you said. I was simply replying to everyone in descending order as I read the thread. Apologies for going overboard.
I wouldn't say overboard.. thorough maybe but not overboard :p
man this reminds me of my days playing Tribes renegades.. so much entertainment lol
Well I have turned everything and anything off that refers to "Auto/Reinstall"
I have also deleted my add-ons and re-selected/installed them via CC, so far everything runs ok.
IMHO this shouldn't be happening to begin with. We shouldn't be doing this to get it to work "as intended". It shouldn't have been foisted upon us like it has.
coulda woulda shoulda.. I am really losing patience with this "change for the better" and really want things back they way they were.. if it aint broke don't fix it.. was WAU broke? Not for me as it did the job i needed it to do.. is CC broke? I would say yes..
For now, while it's still accessible, the only option is to point your browser to files.wowace.com and manually download the addons. These aren't the latest versions - they are what existed before the official merger - but they're only a couple of days old.
Yeah that's what I did.. pain in the ass to do but did it.. not happy about this issue but hey what can you do.. it's not like we can use another updater
now I need to figure out why tradeskill info no longer works.. ugh :mad:
Well I am not liking the fact that my addons directory got hosed after running the new client for the first time tonight.
Add to that the addons it detected and "updated" or should I say downgraded is only half of the list I had using WAU..
As it stands now I would like to get my addons back on track with WAU as I did not use externals in WAU.. an option curse client doesn't even offer that I have seen
can you get WAU back up for those that need it at this time?
I am missing (ie curse client doesn't see) roughly 18 addons that WAU saw with no issue.
... Also can't seem to get locationfu grabbed properly, so many things i miss from t when using the awailable broker stuff.
I use Navigator and The Traveller's reference. I was using statblock coords for the coord but I am trying out tomtom and it has it's own coord display. The only thing I miss from locationFu is the fishing skill for the zone.
Well here is a real odd one.. I was able to get spf working again only after deleting my skillplusfu.lua(s). But there is a still the trigger event error coming from fubarplugin 2.0. This happens on ALL my toons except one.. my lowbie undead rogue. so I am still scratching my head on this..

I guess more info should be shared on this issue.. Mousing over bugsack or skillsplusFu results in no dropdown box at all.
I tried to see how this would do using Fortress/SBC and F2B.. well Bugsack gave no errors and mousing over it was not an issue. SkillsPlusFu still had issue.. so i am at a loss on why this is happening..
Also when these errors happen the bugsack doesn't turn red nor does it "Fatality" so unless you open the sack you won't know this is happening.
When mousing over skillsplusFu and bugsack i am getting these errors:

well is short the new revision did not download libcrayon-3.0 as a dependency and that was the reason for the errors. All fixed and no worries as no other problems have crept up like this one downloading updates with WAU.. all dependencies are dl'ing fine.. hrmm I wonder why this one mod has/had a problem?

If you are talking about the Updater, then I am in the same boat as you but this is a specific issue with Ace2/Fubar/SkillsPlusFu/Bugsack
