Legion Interface Files

Resike · 05-13-16, 02:37 PM

I couldn't found any updated interface files online, so here is my git:

https://github.com/Resike/BlizzardIn...Code/tree/beta

Ketho · 05-13-16, 02:55 PM

Gethe's mirror has been updated for a while though

https://github.com/Gethe/wow-ui-source/tree/beta

Resike · 05-13-16, 03:14 PM

Oh i did'nt checked the beta branch.

Should also be up to date.

Holy shit i checked that too, maybe my chrome cache tricked me.

Man. Can you tell me the console trick again? The console key is not working for me on the german version. I think I knew a workaround for that some day but I forgot.

I started the client with -console.

Do I need to chance my keyboard layout to US? Not sure how to do that under Win10.

*edit* I found it hidden under a rock. I have the console now.

You can drag the console down with the mouse btw.

This is probably helpful if you want to extract the BLP files: http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=48375

Thanks for the cvar dump, it helped immensely
The tutorial video is very informative

Does anyone know why Foxlit's framexml browser does have the GlobalStrings file?
I thought it was removed into a db file or something..

https://www.townlong-yak.com/framexm...balStrings.lua

He's just being sneaky and creating a fake Lua file by extracting the contents of GlobalStrings.db2 from the 7.0 client. The comment at the top of his GlobalStrings.lua has changed from Blizzard's:

Code:

-- AUTOMATICALLY GENERATED -- DO NOT EDIT!

to the message:

Code:

-- AUTOMATICALLY GENERATED -- Your benefactors send their regards.

and his FrameXML.toc contains:

Code:

# this cake is a lie
GlobalStrings.lua

A fresh export of the interface files does not contain GlobalStrings.lua, nor that section of FrameXML.toc. I find it a bit annoying that the site no longer reflects a "vanilla" FrameXML, but if we're going that route, maybe we should get compat.lua in there too.

Ketho · 05-18-16, 06:36 PM

compat.lua?

You mean Lua 5.3 code compatible with Lua 5.1 or something?

Predicate · 05-18-16, 06:52 PM

compat.lua is a file Blizzard loads before it gets to GlueXML/FrameXML, containing stuff like aliases (strfind = string.find), wrappers (trig functions that take degrees), and a few other custom functions (like string.split). You can't export it from the console, but knowing it's there makes it easier to understand why these functions are being called that would otherwise not exist.

How can you access this file than without memory sniffing?

It can be extracted from the client .exe without even running the game, but I can't elaborate further as the forum rules prohibit discussion of EULA-breaking activities (which, sadly, includes reverse engineering).

You can pm me or simply just send me the file.

Ketho · 05-19-16, 09:20 AM

I remember I made a thread once that also was about getting aliases: http://forums.wowace.com/showthread.php?t=19736
The mentioned Wowpedia page for reference: http://wow.gamepedia.com/Lua_functions

Code:

local t = {}

for _, v1 in pairs( {math, string, table} ) do
	for k, v2 in pairs(v1)do
		t[v2] = k
	end
end

for k, v in pairs(_G) do
	if type(v) == "function" and t[v] then
		print(k, t[v])
	end
end

I think these are most of the aliases
There don't seem to be aliases for the bit functions

Lua Code:

abs == math.abs
ceil == math.ceil
deg == math.deg
exp == math.exp
floor == math.floor
frexp == math.frexp
ldexp == math.ldexp

log10 == math.log10
max == math.max

Just verifying that Ketho's listing is complete as far as compat.lua's effects, so the original file is unnecessary for developer reference.

All other non-standard stuff is implemented in C, but that Wowpedia page documents them well enough.

Well it does not cointain the PI variable at all.

Predicate · 05-19-16, 10:56 AM

The listing he posted contains the PI alias on line 17. The Wowpedia page is specifically about functions, but as PI is an odd one out, I don't know where else it would go. You can always update the wiki if you feel it's notable enough.

Well, that finally explains why the trigonometry functions are not the same

It was well known tha the global un-prefixed ones work in degrees while the others work in radians.
Why they choose do offer these however... legacy reasons probably.
