Epic I just can't seem to find out what the purpose at the C++ is.

scripts done in c++ are more accuarate and less buggy

Not always true.. It depends on the quality of the script All can be equally good.
What is true is that in C++ far more can be done and there is more controll over each event. There is no limit to C++ at the end of the day while in other languages in emulation you are limited to the commands you are given till you make custom ones.

People generally prefer lua over C++ since lua is much easier to script and understand. C++ takes more time and effort to learn. Lua is great! But once you master Lua, you should move on to C++. If you find C++ hard try going for C,C+. Choose one of those first.

You should say 'are' if your speaking in the plural so it should be:
Our Emulation Experts are doing monthly updates

who the **** cares?

Btw, to say C+++ scripts are best so you can try learning it after C++!

Patch 3.1 - The Race to the Finish!
This time, the 'up and coming' Emulator, AspireDev's very own Hearthstone Emulator, managed to crank out 3.1 support before anyone else, which satiated many appetites.

Wrong. MaNGOS had 3.1 support when it still was in PTR, way before Hearthstone had, that crew just copy&pasted whole 3.1 changes from mangos to their emulator, so this statement is not true.

You can check all the 3.1 changes and compare them against mangos 310 git branch, the git branch had them way before.

edited ur reply as i didnt write it We dont want any emu bashing in this thread, it will result in deletion -> infractions -> Ban

Im not here to bash any emulators, but to keep them equal. Since currently the subpart
"Patch 3.1 - The Race to the Finish!"
Is pretty much hearthstone/arcemu fanboy writing, where most parts arent even true.
Like
"however their 3.0.9 core could possibly be said to be the best 3.0.9 open sourced emulator available at the moment."

Big amount of people would rank it to be the worst 3.0.9 supporting os emulator.

And offcourse that 3.1 part, which is not true in any case.

I understand that it's hard to write an objective writing about wow emulation, or anything where you have many choices, and are a user yourself. Just like comparing windows and linux. If your a linux user, it rocks socks, windows sucks. But if your windows user, its the opposite.

This is where most of the "Wow emulation history, ascent vs mangos, etc" threads here in mmowned fail, the writer is a fanboy / user of one of them, and the whole writing is based on that fact. So it ends up being a opinion writing of some, and if an outsider reads it, he gets the way wrong impression on how the things really are.

Oki, oh btw to all that C+ thing is for me irony, ':Nightmare:', there is no such thing as 'C+'.

[mager1794]

There is too!!!!!!!!

you just gotta be more openminded AxolexX just let your imagination wonder and you'll find it lol =D

[AzolexX]

Actually thing of C+- or C+ is not programing lang....go google it and find out what it is(Yes it is something related to C/C++...but what?

Henkke, it was more of an explanation as to why your post from earlier was deleted, it was in a mess of fanboibashing posts.

[Henkke]

KuRIoS: Yea kinda suspected that, it was in middle of 5 totally offtopic posts.

Now we just got to wait for hellagawd to check this thread and hopefully he'l rewrite that 3.1 post a bit to make it more correct.
