Itemeffects DB actual data 8.3 33073 partially missing

Hi! Was checking for new items from patch 8.3 other day and found that for some reason existing itemeffects DB stated as 8.3.0.33073 do not have information on new items
for example:
https://wow.tools/dbc/?dbc=itemeffect&build=8.3.0.33073#search=173403&page=1

However it exist in wowhead, so it should be in database (It was added in patch 33062):
https://www.wowhead.com/item=173403/black-empire-mail-helm&bonus=0

So my question is it possible not full database was parsed or something got broken?

3.3.5 DBCs broken

Possibly more older versions too

obj1.adt marked as wdt

Hi, obj1.adt marked as wdt file type:
https://wow.tools/files/#search=type%3Awdl&page=1&sort=0&desc=desc

Want to go with GPLv3 to allow for changes and such but requiring copyright to stay and source to be disclosed. Y'all 3 (@xPaw, @barncastle and @justMaku) have contributed code in the past so want to ask you for opinions regarding this.

DBC sorting by column

Proper DBC capitals

Multiple file downloading via POST instead of GET

Bypasses URL size limits

Don't make mv screenshot if modifier keys held down

Is it possible to download only build.info? [Question]

Is it possible to download only build.info for wow particular build (for example retail)?

I do get new wow.exe from CASCExplorer when new build comes, but there is no build.info so i can't use local storage for CASC, which works much faster then online obviously, as it take build info information from wow folder.

Thank you!

p.s. i do not use battle.net launcher

Store/display file sizes per contenthash

Needs figuring out DB wise. Add col to wow_rootfiles_chashes?

File queue issues

Sorry I think I broke the file queue 😢
Attached are all the map related files might be better to just bulk db upload or something - unshipped.txt

Better version transitions

Make sure all (applicable!) maps are centered around world coordinates 0,0 so the transition between version is better (and allows for viewing changes more easily). Maps that don't have tiles at 32_32 need a different solution.

Coordinates bugged on some older maps

For example on Eastern Kingdoms 5.4.7.18019 shows 85_83 tile for middle of EK

Same thing happens for Kalimdor, 8.1.5.28938

Doesn't happen for every map of the same build number; coordinates are fine on Azeroth 4.0.1.11927 but bugged on Kalimdor 4.0.1.11927

Config diffs in monitor

DBC filtering by column

Builds Diffing 2.0

Left issues

• : Server Side Filtering/Paging
• : Side By Side Image Diffing
• : Pixel-to-Pixel BLP diffing.
• : Changed files stats

Inline sounds for soundkit browser

Move minimap backend to wow.tools

Still on old server :(

• Extraction
• Compilation
• Tile cutting
• Processing
• DB update

Process builds before downloading full archives

Needs support in BuildBackup to first download minimal things (configs, root, encoding) then processing builds and THEN downloading archives/file indices/patches etc.

Also needs support in CASCToolHost because it is very likely files aren't available locally yet, needs to fall back to retrieving files online without saving locally to make sure there's no conflicts with things still being downloaded.

Side-by-side DBC diffs

Feature request from Discord. Should be doable with the current diff API already. One table showing only the original rows as is and one showing the rows with diffs applied. Just need to figure out how to handle added/removed.

Error 1005 Access denied

I'm receiving this message when I'm trying to browse wow.tools since today:

I'm using Mullvad VPN, so it must be because of the VPN.

Are you blocking some VPN providers? If so, why? Can you consider unblocking it?

Encrypted DB2 section support

Reader is currently ignoring them during reading if tactkey is set even if it is decrypted on disk. Can we somehow detect DBs still being encrypted or not? (Check for 00 00 00 bytes?)

8.2.5 31961 ItemSparse - Item Quality

Can you please check if parsing of ItemSparse working correctly on last release build 31961?

I found that quality in this table got broken, for example:

https://wow.tools/dbc/?dbc=itemsparse&build=8.2.5.31961#search=167012&page=1
this item Uncommon quality (green), but in table it have value 110, while wow quality are from 0 to 8

similar for anchor weed for example:
https://wow.tools/dbc/?dbc=itemsparse&build=8.2.5.31961#search=152510&page=1
quality from DB is 0, while should be 2 (Uncommon)

Thanks!

Include install diffs in build diffs

Build filters

Move datatables stuff to a C# backend or find out how to do it well in PHP/MySQL.

API design

Required endpoints, etc. Read-only stuff first, please.

https://petstore.swagger.io/#/ seems like a good base.

Add all files from MID and other DBCs

MID sometimes has unshipped files, should just add these to db instead of only naming files from root.

WDT in Map.db2 can be added too

Automate soundkit ogg community filenames (+ incremental ones)

Incremental ones still need to be done, others need to be verified a few times before automating.

Hook up DBC previews on files page

Tables for non-English locales

Can you add tables for non-English locales, particularly the ItemSparse table?

Only compile changed minimaps

Use diff API to check for differences between 2 builds?

Users should be able to filter the listfile depending on the build version.

db2 viewer filtering behavior

Clicking inside inputs to write filter value triggers sort

Auto update WoWDBDefs(Raw) from wow.tools

Move from old server to new one, integrate with site?

Salvage as much stuff as possible from 18125 local install copy

Encounter journal browser

Beginning is there but needs way more work.

ADT v26

Need to add v26 to the type checker

0 string REVM\4\0\0\0\x1A\0\0\0KNCA .adt.dat

wow.tools/files/index.php

Line 383 in 141ad2f

$('#files').ajax.url("/casc/filetable/files?buildConfig=" + build).draw(false);

I think this should be referencing DataTable:

$('#files').DataTable().ajax.url("/casc/filetable/files?buildConfig=" + build).draw(false); 

Files page search filter issue

I've got a great bug here!

On the files page if you filter by unnamed,type:m2 you get x of 286 entries but if you swap it to type:m2,unnamed you get x of 755 entries (this one is wrong).

As far as I can tell this only happens when these two filters - no other filter/type combination seems to do this.

M2/WMO diffs in build diffs

Proper minimap offset generation

Needs to deal with 8.2 WDT changes

Hook Ribbit Monitor up to monitoring instead of ye olde http monitor

Show encrypted file locks in build diffs

Requires either reading espec in CASCToolHost or retrieving encrypted file list in JS and using that when rendering table.

Redo DBC list building

Make some DB tables tracking what version of a DBC is in what build. Save contenthash for optionally only showing changed DBCs and store whether or not definitions are available to optionally hide those.

Community driven development

Concept for a community driven development

I had a conversation with Marlamin in Discord, we briefly written about the architecture and the position of the community in this project. He asked me to write an issue that brings the key aspect to the front.

Please notice, this is just a draft nothing is finished here. So please post anything related in here, no matter if positive or negative (just keep one thing in mind, be nice to each other).

Architecture

The problem:

Form my personal perspective, there is no clear structured architecture. It exists no clear definition between the view and the logic level. Some HTML is written hard coded into the logical layer of the application. For maintenance purposes it's a bad practice.

Possible solution:

Adopt a modern MVC framework such as Laravel this will allow us to have a structured MVC architecture.

Positive aspects: The application could divided into standalone modules, the View stands alone, parts like the self written login cloud be dropped (secure authentication is provided), adoption of JWT, good documentation (see more below), ...

Negative aspects: Before restructuring the whole application, there should be a clearly vision and a plan with a detailed description what we want to achieve and how exactly (Time consuming). Most parts need to be rewritten is will results into a very time intensive task.

Community

The community plays a huge part in the project. It should be the number one goal to interact with them and discuss things which are good or not.

The contribution to the project should be easy, a good documentation, coding standards and a development setup should exists. There should also be a structured way in organization issues, tasks and maybe plans.

What about creating an organization like the wowdev group? Tools and library's could also provided there (for example DBC2CSV).

Wiki

A clear structured point with all information which are necessary to contribute back to the community.
This could be a getting started guide to setup a development environment, the coding standards or a description and the purpose of this project.

The Wiki should be the number one information source for the community.

As mention above this is only a draft so please let us discuss.
If I missed something or you want to add something please comment it, I will include it.

Some 4.0.1.12911 dbcs showing Russian data.

Noticed on worldsafelocs and map.dbc for 4.0.1.12911.

Utilise DBs for File Types

It's probably worth adding TextureFileData.db2 and ModelFileData.db2 to the updateTypes script. This'll help with the mass of encrypted files and possibly speed up new build analysis.
