Can someone help me out here?

You can't just change the spellid if a spell is replaced, you need to use castspellbyname. if you use the thread search to search this thread for castspellbyname you'll find lots of examples. This is a known bug with wow/pqr.

in short, instead of returning true, use castspellbyname, then return true, with a spellid of 0 in the pqr spell description.

Something like this ?

if PQR_SpellAvailable(85673) then
CastSpellByName(GetSpellInfo(114163), "target")
return true
if members[1].HP < 85
--and UnitPower("player", 9) > 2
then
PQR_CustomTarget = members[1].Unit
return true
end

or


if members[1].HP < 85
--and UnitPower("player", 9) > 2
then
PQR_CustomTarget = members[1].Unit
if PQR_SpellAvailable(85673)
then
CastSpellByName(GetSpellInfo(114163))
return true
end

Hello everyone, since I see a lot of ppl here talking about "elite" profiles of call them what you like I'd like to share something with all. Although I have been following Ownedcore forums for a loong time, first "meeting" with PQR was in Cataclysm and it was about second or third nerf of Deathwing, so basically it was in near end of expansion. I stumbled upon it by pure accident since I was searching data about affliction locks since I rerolled my char. I found guess what....ofc Valma (thank you Valma btw if you're reading this). I tried it and found it incredible what it can do, the mouseover, the button clicking on ultraxion, soul swapping, absolutely AMAZING WORK. Then last patch came, think it was 4.3 or smthn and something died. Or maybe it was 5.0. I honestly can't remember. So since there was no profile update, Valma seemd inactive I started to checkout forums and stuff on how to fix things. I managed to do it shortly but MoP prepatch came and they completely changed locks so I became truly sad. I had 2 options, either to wait till someone makes a good profile or to heat up my chair and learn to do it myself. So it all started from looking at other profiles (since when I look at Valmas it like a TONS of code and was at that time very hard to connect it all ). I started to ask questions here on forum and I released ofc my first profile that does basic single target rotation, full of bugs etc. I got very nice feedback from people since it was the best affliction profile available. Because of that nice feedback I started to work more on it, added all sort of things, mouseover, focus target, I simcrafted every possible scenario, added tons of stuff. When I asked people to give me their reports on how much dps they make with profile, feedbacks, suggestions etc, do you know how much PM's I got? 3....in letters " THREE". So I thought something is wrong, people don't like it. But when I checked downloads, over 100 downloads!!!!! and only 3 people send me FEEDBACK!!. Everyone likes it, they come on forum just to download and then who cares about Nilrem and feedback.
That was the moment I decided that there will be 2 versions. For those who wanna help and for leechers. All of those who were helping me, giving me bug reports, suggestions, pieces of code to put in profile get the "better" version. Although as I said many times my public profile has full functionality and rotation based on Simulationcraft and as such is hitting WoL ranks easily.
Those leechers who do not wish to contribute, do not wish to give feedback, they get other option to compensate for time and effort put into this profile. People say that profiles should be free, I totally agree, and I sure wouldn't have do it the other way if atleast from those 100+ people who downloaded the profile I had atleast 15-20 feedbacks. And my profiles are totally free, both of them, the only difference is, first one (available to everyone anytime) is purely based on Simcraft. Second one is based on my own simulations, improvements and perks not needed to effectively use it in raid environment. Simming an addition for a profile, and variations takes a lot of time (one sim approx 15-20 minutes) and testing witch is done by people clearing HEROIC raids in their own time and giving me feedback on profile performance and needed additions. So my second profile version only asks for compensation regarding all the extra time spent doing it for those who don't contribute anything to it. My beta testers, friends who post me feedback, coders who help me with code get everything free, leechers don't. Also I won't even start to say anything about rep, it's ridiculous to compare rep to amount my profiles have been downloaded. Tho I don't care about rep so much as I do that people have a stable and good affliction profile out there.
I think it would be a good time that discussion about all sorts of versions of profiles should stop and I go work on my Wind Lord code so people can have automatic spear refresh on time.
If I offended anyone with this I'm sorry, didn't mean to. I also won't be reacting to any reactions this post may do. My opinion is stated here and won't be changing, simple.....

Thank you, sincerely Nilrem

yeap. don't forget to set the spellid to 0 in the description (the box on the lower left of the ability editor) or you'll still get the bug. you should be good to go

you might also want to update the spellid in the pqr_spellavailable check just before the cast too, since that seems to be still on the old id.

Double post for added drama!

if you are required to pay for a product, it's a sale.

if you are given a product for free, but offer payment even though it's not reqiured, that's a donation.

sure, sell profiles all you want, but call it what it is, it's a sold profile, not a donation.

now, how about we all shut up and get back to the code.

Xelp should make pqr paid per month, select the best profile developers and pay them a cut to keep the profiles updated, and package them with pqr updates.. pvp and pve versions of every class. There would be no searching around for profiles this way by noobs to PQR. It would just very easily be plug and play.. it would even be called a "sale" so people don't get butt hurt about terminology.

Now this would also cut out the leechers, ~14 year olds and everything like that from using it.. which I also find a plus.

The quality of profiles would be top notch 100% of the time since the profile devs would be actually paid for the work and it would help the community the most.

So if its really about the quality of the work, that would be the solution. Good day.

@Fail That's great and all but then blizzard would most likely take notice of it and shut it down. They tend to go after ppl who are making a decent profit off of 3rd party programs. So really no he shouldn't just keep it as it is and ask for donations.

@nil that's understandable how you feel. Putting all that time and effort into the work to get Lill feedback. But that's what happens everywhere from ppl putting samples out to try at the store to here. And I'm willing to bet nova team has a log of how many down loads they get and I only see maybe a few posts of what's going on with the profile every release unless something major happened. But also a lot of ppl don't know what to look for when they try use it. I know half the time ppl are pointing out stuff I don't see and try to test who's I can. But also ppl may get to it before me and I do t want to double post it. Forum page is big as it is and stuff gets lost. For exp the guy who's asking for help few posts back

Im kinda having trouble with this. I just got eternal flames which replaces World of glory SO all i did was change spell id's(Which i thought would work) but it isnt using eternal flame.

don't know if someone gave you an answer due to the flame war
if the id morphed
set spellid to 0 and add 'CastSpellByName(GetSpellInfo(newspellid), "unitid or nil") above the return true

Some of the things posted by the Profile sellers really made me facepalm and left me sort of speechless but even tho it is itching in my fingers to comment things, I am not doing it for the sake of this thread.

Just wanted to say one thing, I really hope that the ones selling profiles and making profit off it at least made some nice donations to Xelper and whatever other developer they chose to use code from.

Not going to post anything else on this topic, never wanted to start a flamewar with this since this topic deserves better.

I completely disagree with this, I personally could care less if someone sells their profiles that they take time to make. But thinking that just because the product becomes paid for it will be 100% perfect and better is just wrong. The best thing about PQR in my opinion is the openess and community the profile writers release great profiles that work. Asking for donations is fine. As is selling if you wish to you write the profile its up to you to share it sell it or do with it as you wish. Also saying getting rid of the 14 yr olds is silly, as while I am old now, alot of those 14 yr olds know tons more about this stuff than me and can code this stuff, they sometimes make the best profiles.

A link to your if its a paid product it is 100% would be Honorbuddy, that is a paid product, and has paid staff that write profiles and other parts and it is far from 100% its quite buggy on many things, and some of best stuff from it comes from the community support not from the pain devs.
