Some things cleared up by reading it all again. But I just can't understand how you can be so sure that the Scan.dll.new doesn't do anything until it becomes Scan.dll. Or am I thinking crazy here?

Okay, so... you have Scan.dll
If you delete it or change something in it, WoW makes Scan.dll.new when you boot up WoW.
Then the next time you boot up WoW, it turns Scan.dll.new into the new Scan.dll and Scan.dll.new disappears.
What I've done here is modify Scan.dll and Scan.dll.new and set them as Read Only.
So WoW can't make a new file.
And it won't use those 2 files since they have been altered.
Do you understand?
Yes, thank you.
+Rep, works great for now.
Why not just make blank scan.dll and scan.dll.new files and mark them as read only?
I know it accomplishes the same thing as what you did by altering the code to make it unreadable by wow but I'm sure it would get rid of a lot of the questions being asked in this thread.
Fine, just so it clears things up, here are blank files.

Blank scan.dll and scan.dll.new are in my post, check first page please
None of the above methods work for me. I don't know what the problem is. -_- Any other suggestions? Here is the error message I am getting--

It doesn't matter what I do, I get this damned error. I've tried every fix listed and nothing works.

That's what happens when you don't press F8 or use an old version of WoWME iirc.
Thanks, now Im out of questions since Im pretty sure those won't scan at all.
Now the only thing is to check dates at those files so they don't get changed, if Blizzards make a trick and replaces these files anyway.
But that would be overkill from Blizzards side, wouldn't it?
Thanks again for the fix!

Your edits are great, but its in real little improved solution wrote by me, step 2. Just look to first page, and You will see... anyway, my files were blank, Yours have the Scan code inside, but clean, so its much better. +Rep for you, but i am not sure if you need more rep, but i would appreciate +Rep for me for showing you right way or just for insipration... :wave:![]()
Lmao !
Not only you provide evidence about how limited your knowledge of wow gamefiles is, but you also speak loudly, delete posts that actually gave a valid work-around, and repost the whole without even giving any kind of credits, just to get the final word?Originally Posted by Demonkunga
Great moderator really.
Then you finally do, but now claim it's your own research job, and mock others, when you actually did nothing but took someone else files and type two useless lines?
Nice job Demonkunga. I'm not surprised to see you stick with your pathetic behaviour you had before, and i'm not expecting you to wake up cleverer.
Poor.
@Azo: Wtf are you still doing with such an ignorant attention whore ?
Wake up and leave it for goodYou know there are way smarter places & people to work with.
P.S: Oh snap, i'm flaming! Have fun banning me again dK, I coudln't care less.
while i am sure this works, i am kinda paranoid of losing my account right now if they do another sleath nerf, so i am just going to wait for the next WoWME.
Dude, you just sounded like an ingame boss.
And, this doesn't seem relevant in this topic actually, does it?
On topic: I've tried this out since cleaned the two files etc. And it seems to work for now, as I've said. Though, I'm not completely sure, but have we accepted this kind of "scanfiles" in Terms of Use, or just Warden?
Obviously, flaming a Moderator is rather silly, and rude, which you are. Demonkunga had the power to sticky this post, and to make a post, so he did both, and people are replying to it, so what's the problem? He could have banned you, but he didn't, that was nice, considering you flamed him.
