since zeeg is no longer involved with wowguru who is taking over. it has been a few months now and seems like alot of the coding, ranks, and mods are not working as expected. i love wowguru as an upload site because it seems to give the best data, and i love the sig. if anyone has info please let us know.

I applied the fix, and I updated the version so it didn't list it as Out Of Date. But it doesn't seem to be writing the LUA file in the:

/%WoW Install Path%/WTF/Account/ACCOUNTNAME/SavedVariables/WoWGuru.lua

Is there a newer version that might work, or it this service not working atm?

Well I just downloaded the 2.83 version above.. And i get that error "Index is nil" on line 2506. First version I have ever seen that error on... It's not even generating the Saved Variables fole for me.

I might try deleting it all and re-installing from scratch.


EDIT::

Ok re-installing didnt seem to work for me, but I have had a look at the code and I believe I have found out why it's showing that error every time a zone switch is made.

I deleted my previous suggestion because i found it to be totally incorrect.


EDIT Again::

I managed to fix my mod, it no longer triggers the error for me. It may not be the best fix but it certainly works from what I can see.

I firstly tried a few methods to fix it, I managed to fix the error that made it report table index is nil in 1 function, but then i found out something. That table is only nil when no instance identifier is passed to the function. When you are going into or exiting an instance there is a zone identifier passed, but when switching from zone to zone it is not passed. Because the variable relies on that value that is passed in order to create or reference a table if nothing is passed a variable of that name is created and it's contents is nil (Booleon False).

So I traced back further and found that there is one condition on where there will be nothing passed but a blank nill value and added a test into the code to make sure that if you are not in an instance (which either can be or cant be in one at that section of the code) it will skip trying to record the end-time of the instance. This means it will never call the function that needs a a non-nil value when you change map zones, but it will if you zone into an instance or zone out of an instance.

Ok, to cut a long story short find 2 lines of code that looks like this in the file %WoW%/Interface/Addons/WoWGuru/WoWGuru.lua:

WoWGuru_LeaveInstance();
wg_InInstance = nil;


There might be multiple sections of code that look identical, this one is closer to the bottom of the script.. This call I'm refering to is inside a function declared on line 2360 with the line of code function WoWGuru_OnZoneChangedNewArea().

The line number of the code itself is line 2385 or something close to that. The line before the call is if (find ~= "ins") then.

Replace the code on line 2385 and the line under it that reads wg_InInstance = nil; with the following code.

if( wg_InInstance ) then
WoWGuru_LeaveInstance();
wg_InInstance = nil;
end;

Basically what that modification does is make it test to see if you are in an instance before automatically assuming that you are in an instance. By making that change you should no longer get the error everytime you switch zones and the mod will still record all the data it normally records when entering or exiting instances or battlegrounds.

If you are having trouble finding the line of code to edit and wish to narrow down the search, use CTRL+F or whatever the shortcut is to find a text string, then paste the line of the function declaration i bolded above (Line 2360) then search down the page (there will only be 1 match). Once you find it the line you need to look for is some 20 lines further down... if you hit the next row of ************** then you have gone too far.

Hope that helps.

I am having the same problem. Everytime I switch zones, I get some kind of error. I thought I placed the file in the wrong place but at least I am not the only one having that annoying error.

Wishing I was into Lua at this moment. I'm tempted to tinker and make sure the variable passed in has a value....

This is actually a work-in-progress thing. It doesn't collect it from in-game, but rather we calculate the stats on the website when you update your profile.

I have the addon installed correctly, and do the /wg and it submits the data. I have tried this a couple times, but it still doesn't bring my character up on this site. Am I don't something else wrong?

One thing I forgot, this is more patcher related but can you have some option to not upload all the files in WDB. Logging off in IF on a server with a queue every night after having those files get deleted is suicide. It also seems to report my crit% wrong, says 7% should be 28.98%.

Will see about running the census when afk, we do plan to remove the data reset once the patcher is finalized

Thehermit

December 24, 2005 - 7:35 pm [ Reply ]

A few suggestions. I noticed it resets all data when you login. I normally login to several characters or reload my ui when I play so most data I collected was lost. I'm not sure why it does this, but maybe have 2 versions, or if you use the patcher have it use a version that does not reset the data. An option to run the census when you are AFK would also help.

Ah, fixed it, I was looking in the SavedVariables directory for the individual character, not just the account... should have looked at the instructions a bit more carefully. =)

As far as what shows up on the profile page, how do you update your honor and PVP rank info? I uploaded all the files it said I could upload.

So, how do you get the .lua file? I'm checking in:

C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\WTF\Account\AIRATH\Tenos\SavedVariables

... and there's no .lua files there other than some Blizzard ones. I have WG installed and it runs fine (via /wg) but for some reason it's not generating a file, even after logging out / exiting. What's the deal?

heh, im gettin the same error i got in ver 2.3 (not in 2.31)

error text
/interface/addons/wowguru/wowguru/lua:191: attempt to index "wg_main" (a nil value)
end error text

this pops up when i try /wg or /wowguru to bring up the interface or try any other /wg commands

any advice or quick fix?
thanks, this mod rocks as do your character sigs ;-)
cheers

edit:
hooray for the quick xml fix ;)
2.41 is perfect, no errors

zeeg

December 3, 2005 - 5:21 am [ Reply ]

Paulisel that error seems to be from uploading the wrong .lua (the script vs the one in your SavedVariables)

Can you confirm you're uploading the right one.

And if you type /wg and it's not working I'm assuming it's not installed into the right location

Check for Interface/Addons/WoWGuru/WoWGuru.toc

I'm getting this error when I try to upload the wowguru.lua file.

Parse error: parse error, unexpected '[', expecting ')' in /home/wowguru.com/public_html/scripts/parse.inc.php(179) : eval()'d code on line 22


Also, typing /wg does nothing when I am in game. The mod is installed and does create the lua file

The LUA will only appear once you've logged out and the variables have saved, have you tried that?

Fogg, it sounds like you're uploading the wrong .LUA file. Make sure you're uploading the SavedVariables rather than the script

There is something i miss from this addon and thats an individual auction digging system that checks for average auction value on stuff :) atleast on blue/epix. greens might not be a good idea since i would like to have SOME space left in my harddrive ;D

We'll be adding the auction price stuff soon. It'll stay small no worries about that, the data is cleaned each time you login right now. I think the plan is to only grab the price when you win an auction or buyout an auction and record that.

One more question though:
would it be possible, to not delete the gathered data each time the addon gets initialized? Or at least have a command in the addon the disable/enable this? Because I rather prefer to gather data over the week and then upload it, instead of having to upload that often or loose data.


This will be done as soon as our patcher is completed. The patcher will auto wipe the data.

I'll get that bug fixed ASAP

Bug found in 1.87:
when selling items to a vendor and clicking on items with no sell price or trying to move them around in my bags, the AddOn will bring up an error in line 883 of WowGuru.lua: stack overflow.

Hi,

version 1.87 fixed the crash for me. Thanks for the fast update.

You might want to check the data collecting addon. I have installed it on a WoW 1.8.2 enGB installation and since it's installed, my game will always freeze whenever I attack any mobs. Only happens when the addon is active.

Forgot to mention: using version 1.86 of the addon.

Is anyone else having this problem? I'm on the enUS (1.8.1 client) and haven't noticed this.

Is this not working? I installed the data collector AddOn and ran the patcher/updater 3.51 but can't find my character's profile after loggin him on and afterward running patcher/updater. Is a 1.8 update for the data collector needed before it will work any more?
