Wall Hopping macro, in 2.3!

[Jomal]

Hey, I know no questions/requests shall be posted here, but I think many want an update of this so;

Anyone got working "blizzard-built in-compass" macro for current patch?


Old one ain't working; /run local p,f,m,t=Minimap,CreateFrame"Frame"m,t=({p:GetChildren()})[9],p:CreateFontString(0,0,"SystemFont")t:SetPoint("TOP",0,-9)f:SetScript("OnUpdate",function()_=mod(m:GetFacing()/PI,.5)t:SetFormattedText((_<.002 and"\124cff11ff11"or"").."%.3f",_)end)

[Zing!]

Yeah, I'm annoyed it isn't working anymore.

And I thought you were gonna post the new macro! :O

[Uncontrolable]

Like this?:
/run local p,f,m,t=Minimap,CreateFrame"Frame"m,t=({p:GetChildren()})[49],p:CreateFontString(0,0,"SystemFont")t:SetPoint("TOP",0,-9)f:SetScript("OnUpdate",function()p=m:GetFacing()/PI&#37;.5;t:SetText(format("\124cff%02xbb00%.3f",255*(1-abs(4*p-1)^92),p))end)
Sorry if its not the right thing. I tried

If you face yourself perfectly north south east or west it will (should) change to green. When you are in these facings you can easily use the Jump+Forward wall climbing method. It becomes trivial to climb up a while in a few seconds.

[Raged]

Great macro. Didn't knew these where around. Wall climbing is so easy now.

[Eepi]

I dont get that how that would help in wall climbing. :S When I look straight to north, east, south, west it will change to green but I dont get that what I should do then... I might be a little stupid but could someone tell?

[thielinis]

can you get banned from this?

[parallax]

@thielinis: No, it's a local script for one thing (/run local) and also the fact that they "fixed" it so that the old one is no longer working means they might disapprove of it but no one has been banned for it.

How can I tell? Because people are requesting the NEW macro.. the same people that used the old one.. thus, they haven't been banned.

Dunno if you're supposed to give +rep for just a macro, but +rep Pedman! Works like a charm and makes wall-jumping so much easier.

[zabuu]

woot +rep if i could

Thanks for the new macro <3

[Phoen!x]

Yep, nice one :q

The macro wasn't intentionally broken by the patch. Blizzard just moved some parts of the default UI around, and so my macro had to be "updated" like normal WoW AddOns do.


By the way, I'll be maintaining a working version of the macro at http://www.mmowned.com/forums/wow-ex...per-macro.html if it ever needs another update.
