Successor of WoW Manager in the works

Bl4ckSh33p · 02-27-12, 04:18 PM

Hello! After a very long break I am back to business and working on a new Tool to replace my old "WoW Manager".

A while ago I started to work on a multi-game manager called "Playbird" but I had to pause it and it will take too much time to complete it any time soon.
So I started a new WoW specific project today and it will be called "WoW Launcher PLUS" or short: "WoWL+" and it is meant to replace the original WoW Launcher.

More Information will be available soon.
Check the new Facebook Page to see an early preview Screenshot of WoWL+.

Please don't forget to "Like" it.

Looks interesting. Also, welcome back.

Thank you!

Instead of creating a completely separate app I try to use the existing launcher and extend it with some useful features this time.

I'm not quite sure if that complies with the terms of use. They state explicitly that you can't modify game files - the launcher might fall under that.

Just a heads up.

He said replace not modify so I'm guessing he's not doing anything to the WoW Launcher itself,
just providing an alternate launcher that can start wow.exe (or launcher.exe itself)

You might want to look at whether you can tie it in to Minion.

Looks interesting. I will be keeping an eye on it.

Will hopefully be able to approve it soon(tm).

But seriously, I know we know you and that you've been a long time member in good standing, but as always, I want to wait until one of the programmers can tear it apart, for everyone's sake.

Thanks. Just ignore my private message asking how to fix the "on hold" status sent a minute ago, please.

No worries.

Dude, this looks AMAZING! Can't wait!

Bl4ckSh33p · 04-11-12, 08:15 AM

Thanks. You can download v0.3 now.

Many features like deleting cache files for rare mob scanner-addons or creating backups of your settings are still missing in the Battle.net Launcher. If you still like WoW Launcher PLUS and want an updated version for Warlords of Draenor let me know, please. Just write a comment.
