Setting your on breaking news

[RyeRye]

kind of useless but you can have the client display the breaking news window with whatever you decide to type up...

first add this line your hosts file, need to redirect a url.
replace the loopback with whatever ip you want...

127.0.0.1	   launcher.worldofwarcraft.com

if you have a webserver setup create a /alert/ dir

create a text file with SERVERALERT: at the top, like...

SERVERALERT:
August 25th, 2008 7:32PM PDT

The Dev realm will be offline for scheduled maintenance.

* Date:  August 26th, 2008
* Time:  3:00am - 11:00am PDT

For more information, please check our realm status forum.

Thank you,
Some Server.

toss it in your /alert/ dir and name it index.html
next time you start the client it will look like..


it will mess with the launcher because the launcher uses the url
but now you can use the launcher to display whatever html you want..

I do not take credit.
