View Full Version : Things not showing up, or showing up wrong

I'm just going to list a few things which either don't get uploaded correctly, or don't display correctly on the character pages. These are specific things I notice with my character, and may or may not be generalized to other cases.

Some quests not visible on character page:
-- 'Uniting the Shattered Amulet' in the Blasted Lands (60 Elite)
-- 'Into the Maw of Madness' in Silithus (62 Elite)
-- 'The Great Fras Siabi' in Stratholme (61 Dungeon)

Onyxia Scale Cloak enchanted with +7FR not showing the base +16FR in the tooltip.

Any +mana/5sec enchant not showing properly in the tooltip.
--On bracers, 'Mana regen 4 per 5 sec.' just shows up as 'Mana'
--On helm/legs, 'Mana regen +4/Stamina +10/Healing Spells +24' shows up as 'Mana' as well.

Thanks,
Kilson

Hi,

Thanks for the reports. If you have any items falling in those categories, could you please post a Screenshot of those Items ingame ToolTip ?

All the item tooltips in the lua file look to be correct. It looks to me like a parsing problem when they are being converted to view on the website, based on certain assumptions made about the tooltips (e.g., that an enchant that begins with 'Mana' must have a +xxx after it).

Here's a link to a screenshot of the tooltips for the mana regeneration enchants:

Here's how they look in the wownetexport.lua file:

["Wrist"] = {
["Item"] = "18263:2565:0:1454849280",
["Color"] = "ffa335ee",
["Tooltip"] = {
[1] = "Flarecore Wraps",
[2] = "Soulbound",
[3] = "Wrist Cloth",
[4] = "43 Armor",
[5] = "+8 Intellect",
[6] = "+7 Fire Resistance",
[7] = "Mana Regen 4 per 5 sec.",
[8] = "Durability 35 / 35",
[9] = "Requires Level 60",
[10] = "Equip: Restores 9 mana every 5 sec.",
[11] = "|cff00ff00<Made by Kumojin>|r",
},
["Name"] = "Flarecore Wraps",
["Texture"] = "Interface\\Icons\\INV_Bracer_09",
},

["Head"] = {
["Item"] = "16921:2590:0:0",
["Color"] = "ffa335ee",
["Tooltip"] = {
[1] = "Halo of Transcendence",
[2] = "Soulbound",
[3] = "Head Cloth",
[4] = "94 Armor",
[5] = "+17 Stamina",
[6] = "+27 Intellect",
[7] = "+22 Spirit",
[8] = "+10 Fire Resistance",
[9] = "+10 Frost Resistance",
[10] = "Mana Regen +4/Stamina +10/Healing Spells +24",
[11] = "Durability 59 / 60",
[12] = "Classes: Priest",
[13] = "Requires Level 60",
[14] = "Equip: Increases healing done by spells and effects by up to 48.",
[15] = " <br>",
[16] = "Vestments of Transcendence (1/8)",
[17] = " Belt of Transcendence",
[18] = " Bindings of Transcendence",
[19] = " Boots of Transcendence",
[20] = " Halo of Transcendence",
},
["Name"] = "Halo of Transcendence",
["Texture"] = "Interface\\Icons\\INV_Helmet_24",
},

["Legs"] = {
["Item"] = "16814:2590:0:0",
["Color"] = "ffa335ee",
["Tooltip"] = {
[1] = "Pants of Prophecy",
[2] = "Soulbound",
[3] = "Legs Cloth",
[4] = "89 Armor",
[5] = "+18 Stamina",
[6] = "+24 Intellect",
[7] = "+20 Spirit",
[8] = "+10 Shadow Resistance",
[9] = "Mana Regen +4/Stamina +10/Healing Spells +24",
[10] = "Durability 74 / 75",
[11] = "Classes: Priest",
[12] = "Requires Level 60",
[13] = "Equip: Restores 6 mana every 5 sec.",
[14] = "Equip: Increases healing done by spells and effects by up to 22.",
[15] = " <br>",
[16] = "Vestments of Prophecy (3/8)",
[17] = " Boots of Prophecy",
[18] = " Circlet of Prophecy",
[19] = " Girdle of Prophecy",
[20] = " Gloves of Prophecy",
},
["Name"] = "Pants of Prophecy",
["Texture"] = "Interface\\Icons\\INV_Pants_08",
},

So it seems that item descriptions are limited to 20 lines, though some set items should have more because of the set-list and set-bonuses at the end.

One of the bad quests from the log:

http://img23.imageshack.us/my.php?image=badquest7ik.jpg

And from the lua file:

[6] = {
["Objectives"] = "Slay Grol the Destroyer, Lady Sevine, and Archmage Allistarj. From their corpses take the Amulet of Grol, the Amulet of Sevine, and the Amulet of Allistarj.\
\
Remember to USE your Enchanted Azsharite Fel Weaponry to weaken the triad. They cannot be killed otherwise - but use them wisely...
\
",
["Title"] = "Uniting the Shattered Amulet",
["QuestType"] = "UNKNOWN",
["QuestFaction"] = "A",
["Level"] = 60,
["Header"] = "Blasted Lands",
["Tag"] = "Elite",
},

It looks like the quests that don't show up on the site are the ones where the objectives end with the closing-quote on its own line.

["Objectives"] = "Find Fras Siabi's smoke shop in Stratholme and recover a box of Siabi's Premium Tobacco. Return to Smokey LaRue when the job is done.
\
",

The other quest that doesn't show up is one that actually appears twice in the lua file.

[9] = {
["QuestFaction"] = "A",
["Rewards"] = {
["20724:Corrupted Blackwood Staff"] = "R",
},
["QuestType"] = "UNKNOWN",
["Header"] = "Silithus",
["Objectives"] = "Commander Mar'alith at Cenarion (cut)
["Level"] = 62,
["Title"] = "Into The Maw of Madness",
["Tag"] = "Elite",
},

[16] = {
["QuestFaction"] = "A",
["Rewards"] = {
["20724:Corrupted Blackwood Staff"] = "R",
},
["QuestType"] = "UNKNOWN",
["Header"] = "Silithus",
["Title"] = "Into The Maw of Madness",
["Level"] = 62,
["Tag"] = "Elite",
["Objectives"] = "Commander Mar'alith at Cenarion (cut)
},


And lastly, the Onyxia Scale Cloak:

[3] = {
["Quantity"] = 1,
["Name"] = "Onyxia Scale Cloak",
["Color"] = "ff0070dd",
["Tooltip"] = {
[1] = "Onyxia Scale Cloak",
[2] = "Soulbound",
[3] = "Back",
[4] = "43 Armor",
[5] = "+7 Stamina",
[6] = "+16 Fire Resistance",
[7] = "+7 Fire Resistance",
[8] = "Requires Level 55",
[9] = "Equip: Protects the wearer from being fully engulfed by Shadow Flame.",
[10] = "|cff00ff00<Made by Amirah>|r",
},
["Item"] = "15138:2463:0:1249272960",
["Texture"] = "Interface\\Icons\\INV_Misc_Cape_05",
},

One interesting thing is that the 'Uniting the Shattered Amulet' quest that doesn't show up on my own character quest page DOES show up on my 'First Seen By' page and I can link to it, where it shows up correctly.

Kilson,

Ah, I love users who give detailed info on bug reports. This stuff will allow me to detect what is going wrong ( I hope ).

I believe you are correct to assume that it will probably be a parser related thing. We assume that an Enchantment consists of :

<EnchantType> + or - <Amount>

Where EnchantType can be :

Intellect, Health, Agility, Armor, Strength, Stamina, Spirit, Weapon_Damage, Mana, ReinforcedArmor

So probably the enchant you noticed doesn't fit that description for enchants and we will have to modify our parser.

Regards,


Annunaki

I have a minor issue:

Magician Staff of the Owl

This is what is being uploaded into my equipment, however the staff i have is

Magician Staff of Stamina

I have had the staff through three or four uploads. When i change to a mace the item updates correctly. I noticed that the staff is not listed in the items search either, could this explain it?

Hi,

That is all becuase we currently do not store Item Variations :-( The explanation about Item Variations might be a bit complex, but I'll give it a shot.

An Item in WoW has an ID ( a number ) which uniquely identifies a Base Item. So the Magician Staff has an ID of 4999. But sadly there are variations of that staff, like an 'of the Owl' and 'of the Bear' variation. Currently our DB is set up so that items are identified by their WoW Item ID, which results in only storing one version of a base item, where normally we should be able to store different versions of that base item.

I also have an item that doesn't show up at all. Neither when I'm wearing it nor when it's in my bags:

Zanzil's Band
Binds when picked up
Unique
Finger
+13 Intellect
Requires Level 60
Equip: Improves your chance to hit with spells by 1%.
Equip: Restores 4 mana every 5 sec.

This is what Parser.dmp says:

["Finger0"] = {
["Item"] = "19905:0:0:0",
["Color"] = "ff0070dd",
["Tooltip"] = {
[1] = "Zanzil's Band",
[2] = "Soulbound",
[3] = "Unique",
[4] = "Finger",
[5] = "+13 Intellect",
[6] = "Requires Level 60",
[7] = "Equip: Improves your chance to hit with spells by 1%.",
[8] = "Equip: Restores 4 mana every 5 sec.",
[9] = " <br>",
[10] = "Zanzil's Concentration (1/2)",
[11] = " Zanzil's Band",
[12] = " Zanzil's Seal",
},
["Name"] = "Zanzil's Band",
["Texture"] = "Interface\\Icons\\INV_Jewelry_Ring_46",
},


And I noticed that some boss drops aren't recorded properly. I looted Seafury leggings (http://wwndata.worldofwar.net/item.php?id=20260) myself but it didn't record the drop location.

Hi,

I'm gonna have to look at that one. I guess some info is missing somewhere :-(
