    Shortcut to delete creaturecache.wdb for npcscan addon

    Hey,

    i found a user on Youtube who has 2 videos, 1 of em is a tutorial and the other is a fun video
    This really helped me out :P check it out
    the tutorial is basicly about that you have to delete your creaturecache.wdb every single time before you launch wow
    This guy has found a way to delete it from your desktop with the click of a button instantly :P i found it quite handy

    i have a really solid bat file i use for this, i'll upload it when i get home so you can copypasta it

    Hey! home now, heres my bat file


    echo off
    del "D:\Wold of Warcraft\Cache\WDB\enUS\creaturecache.wdb"
    start /D "D:\Wold of Warcraft" /B Launcher.exe
    exit

    Change the directory structure to point to your world of warcraft directory.

    A tip:

    Put the .bat file in the start folder... that way the cache is cleared every time you restart your computer, and you dont have to do anyting manually

    Everybody doesn't switch computer off everytime they turns of their WoW. Atleast I don't. Haven't reseted it for 1 month now.

    It is useful only for those who are using the NPC Scan addon, that addon scans for rare mobs, once a rare mob is found, it becomes cached and the addon will stop searching for it and the only way to make the addon search for it again is to delete the cache.

    This guide is very useful as it makes the process of deleting cache 10 times easier.
