Know which Battleground you're entering in Random Battleground Queue

[marscgm]

I did a small search, didn't find anything.

Required: A Logitech Keyboard with display(G15 and G510 both work)

Steps:
1. Queue for a Random Battleground
2. Queue pops
3. Look at Logitech Keyboard Display
4: Leave or Enter depending on preference
5: Never play a battleground you dislike again.

Already known. Now what we need is someone to make an addon or program which finds out where this information is hiding and show us without having to fork out on a different keyboard just to find out with random bg this is.

[Killarena]

But from where is the keyboard getting the information ? Shouldn't you be able to get that info with an addon / program then ?

[marscgm]

The keyboard is able to read directly into the WoW address folders. From what I know it hardly touches the WoW API. Which would be a pretty decent reason why Addons aren't able to do this.

Edit: If correct, an additional outside program may be able to detect it - not an addon. Which may cause detection issues with Warden, ect. 'Fail safe' hack programs may be able to detect it properly with the correct coding. Logitech users are safe from this since apparently, Blizzard helped write the code for the keyboards before the Random Queue was added to the game. Huge oversight with a great bonus.

Can't you emulate the Logitech display as a dialog window or something? lol

[eliasbajen]

sounds interesting, i guess there is already programs people have made for themself doing this, but havent released..!
the first one to release/give away can make alot of money on this anyways, unless he is kind, giving it away!

Isnt this against the rules though? aint logitech commiting a crime?

Hmm have a logitech myself, but never noticed this tho.. WIll check
Thanks +rep

Edit: Works epic, that i never noticed this haha

100th repost....

First off, this has been posted so many times it's not even remotely funny. But, back to the point. In theory, wouldn't it be possible to replicate or forge the digital certificate that the Logitech program uses?.. Wouldn't that be 'why' it isn't like a direct auto-ban from Warden because it's like told to ignore that key?..

[wowgamerxx119]

what works better well i dont know if it still works is have sound on and you can hear people clicking in and you can tell if its a 40 man if you hear a bunch of people clicking in... another thing that could help.

The code that tells us this was supposedly made by Blizzard themselves - but forgot about it when they added Random Battlegrounds to the game. So really, it's just an oversight that Blizzard has never cleaned up.

I did a small search, didn't find anything. Closest thing I found was a one post thread in PvP asking if it was possible to make into an addon. As requested by many-a-moderator - If you claim a repost, please link it.

Very. Imagining everything able to be forged; there wouldn't be much in the way besides locating the pockets of information that it grabs and request it.

I used to use this a lot. In the mean time though, since Mists has came out I no longer hear other players hitting accept. :c

this is not an exploit... since as you said blizzard implemented it then it it working as intended...
your talking yourself in circles here guy


and all you would need to do is get the logitech software emulate a keyboard which should not be hard to do and have it post the display on a box on your screen.
if warden is not detecting that you could literally put the exact same coding from the keyboard into the emulator and it shouldnt do crap to warden since it will be the keyboard detecting the information. which means it would not need to attach to wow what-so-ever

Keyword used: Logitech

There is absolutely no way you searched for this. Sorry but not believing it.

[aamlord]

Blizzard knows and it's not supposed to happen. I'm sure it'd get fixed to not reveal random bg name on Logitech keyboards.

I wish this wasnt only for logitech
