[Release] Spurious WoW Emulator Binaries

[CoolManBob]

Spurious is written in VB.Net and has been worked on since the end of March 2008

I bring to you a Pre-Release Binary Release, this is just so people can see our current progress that we have made within the last 3 months.

Spurious at this moment is in no way to be a playable emulator but it can be tested locally and has the ability to be tested on a server wide scale.

We do plan on going open-source within the next two months, and plan on opening up an official test server within the next two weeks.

The Spurious team consists of 6 coders:
CoolManBob
gaddas
UniX
W@Wadict
Clain
Trippy
SectorSeven is our DB man

The current state of the Spurious Emulator is as follows:

Spurious currently supports Client version 2.4.3 Build 8606

Character Creation works for all classes and races.

You can login to the world with all classes and races

Character movement works such as walking around and jumping.

The NPC Gossip System currently works.

The spawner now works, so creatures and gameobjects are spawned, at the moment Spurious only supports 1 map, and only map 1 (Kalimdor) is spawned.

The quest system is being worked on, until the combat system is fixed, it is hard to test if the quest system rewrite fully works yet.

Combat works.

Graveyards works, you are placed in the correct graveyard when you release your spirit

Now supports Multi-Player logins.

The spell system needs some work.

Spell auras are now working, a problem with it though is that you can't cast anything else while having a aura but that's being worked on.

Item usage is working now

Items do add stats to your character correctly, and equip spells are casted on the character successfully and removed successfully when the item is removed. 

Mounts are now working perfectly.

Pet System is being worked on

Chat and Channels work 100%

Party works, but you currently cannot convert to raid

Friends list and ignore list are working

Trade works 100%

Um.... If its not playable just release change logs .

[CoolManBob]

It is playable, just not to ascent or mangos standard playable

[Ickybad]

Ah. few questions does it support LUA or any other type of language scripting.

[CoolManBob]

no it doesnt support LUA, it uses a built-in script compiler called CodeDom, it supports VB.Net scripts, we are thinking of incorportaing more scripting languages but at this time we see no need to until we get farther along

[Ickybad]

Mind if i MSN for a second to talk to you about it?

[CoolManBob]

not at all go ahead

[Trippy000]

wahooo nice release

[Hellgawd]

wahooo useless core
Rep for the effort though.

[Ickybad]

Thats mean hellgawd geif them credit were credit is do they are trying.

[CoolManBob]

wahooo useless core

Why do you say that hellgawd? i don't see you doing shit

[Trippy000]

HellGawd I wouldn't be talking your core failed quicker then Mexican jumping the border....
Maybe that's why you called it FrozenAscent cause thats all it did, just freeze!!

[Clain]

Stop flaming please. Its a playable emulator written in VB.NET which is...the only one of its kind?

-- Back on subject, We have made a TON of work on Spurious.

[Hellgawd]

I never said mine didn't fail.
I'm just saying that in my opinion there's no point to release a core that barely has combat working. A discussion thread about the project, that would be great. And I support the project completely, you know that. -.- It's a great project, coding a new emulator in vb.net.
Just releasing a core that does not have all of the basic wow mechanics nailed it a little bit useless for the general emulation community. That's my opinion. Not a flame, an opinion. Don't razz me for it.
Again, to repeat and get you guys off my case since normally when I post people don'[t even read it correctly, I will repeat myself. It's a great project, but a release thats not completely functional is purposeless for the generic server-based community.

Hellgawd I have an idea i will edit this post in a sec. Hellgawd has officially been hit!
