[BETA] PQRotation - an automated ability priority queue.

[Kaolla]

Okay. So. I just earlier today while servers were down that i could download a 64 bit version wow client via the site. Here is the link ---> World of Warcraft *4.3.3* 64 bit client - Forums - World of Warcraft while using this client everything went faster (load times and frame rate) but the problem is, is that PQR wont detect the 64 bit process client. What file do i have to edit to let PQR detect this? It would be very nice since this x64 bit client runs twice as fast as the x86. (that is if you have a x64 bit OS) Thank you for your help guys :]

*bangs head on table*

Xelper has repeatedly (I cannot stress this enough) stated that he has no intention of making an x64 version of PQR in the foreseeable future.

While the 64-bit WoW client is nice, the actual performance gains from it are extremely minimal; you won't ever see a two-fold increase in speed unless there was something seriously wrong with how your computer allocated memory. Given that WoW was made Large Address Aware prior to the release of the 64-bit client, the difference should be practically unnoticeable.

Making PQR compatible with 64-bit clients involves substantially more than editing a couple of files. While x64 PQR would be nice, it's too much work for too little gain.

Just looking for some quick help out there. I know there are plenty of hunter profiles out there, but I figured the best practice for creating them would be to use a class I was familiar with and create my own. The profile works great as long as I don't have my Wing Clip/Raptor strike ability in the rotation. When I add the ability my framerate drops to 4fps and the rotation stops working completely.

Here are the two code snippets used.

if MeleeRange == 1 then
  local slows = { 45524, 16979, 2974, 13809, 116, 120, 11113, 31589, 15407, 3408, 26679, 8056, 3600, 18223, 12323 }
  local freedom = { 1044, 53271 }
  local HasSlow == nil

  for i=1,#slows do
    if UnitDebuffID( "target", slows[i] ) then
  	  HasSlow = 1
    end
  end

  for i=1,#freedom do
    if UnitBuffID( "target", freedom[i] ) then
  	  HasFreedom = 1 
    end
  end
  
  if HasSlow ~= 1 and HasFreedom ~=1 then
    return true
  else
    CastSpellById(2974, "target")
  end
end

and to calculate melee range

MeleeRange  		= IsSpellInRange(tostring(GetSpellInfo(2974)), "target")

Ironically, x64 version of wow actually slowed mine down, by a lot. I'm sure it was probably some setting on my end, but 5 minutes of it turned me back to the x86.

Case in point. I have guildmates who tried playing with only 4GB of RAM, which the 64-bit WoW client essentially gobbled up on its own.

Xelper, could you please help me, pretty please? I'm using 32bit wow and essentially it won't detect that I'm in game. I have updated offsets, yes I'm on a retail server, yes I'm in game. If you have skype I can stream to you. I have tried running it as admin without antivirus software and allowed everything through my firewall. This is driving me nuts.

unless I miss what wing clip and raptor strike do

wouldnt a simple

if IsSpellInRange("raptor strike", "target") == 1 then
return true
end

work? I think you are checking if its slowed already or has a trinket? no idea as both don't cost you anything

I remember the days when I didn't know how to use the search function.....

Yeah, that would work, but I was also going to use similar code for concussive shot. If the target is already slowed or immune to slows I don't want to waste globals firing a shot that does nothing.

For the code I posted, I wanted to smack them with a raptor strike if they were already slowed. If they weren't slowed I wanted to wing clip so I could get away. Both situations would be followed by a disengage.

woot sarcasm ftw i wasnt looking for a old profile genius just asking kaolla in a round about way for a new pve profile

[farnumdizzle]

i wasn't talking about you davey, that's fine....i'd like kaolla to make pve ones too....i was talking about the people asking for the auto-de and ret pally profiles and other stuff like that

[daveyboyuk]

my appologies i take it back sometimes i forget im not in /2

@Everyone

Sheuron posted that the SKIP UNKNOWN feature was somehow inverted, so if you're attempting to use some of the profiles for leveling and they aren't working, do this:

1. Go into Ability Editor
2. Look for the SKIP UNKNOWN feature of each ability in whatever profile you're testing
3. Change TRUE to FALSE
4. Hit Save
5. Move onto next ability and rinse, repeat.

After doing this, I was able to use Sheuron's Frost PVP profile in Lvl 70 BGs, which wouldn't work before. It works flawlessly. It should work for other profiles as well, as Xelper accidentally inverted the feature. Try it out.

What about -- initialize --, special events and stuff like that keep that true or change it to

Going to do my best, Davey Class is cancelled tomorrow, so I'll see what I can do.
