so i was having problems again with the mumble overlay last night.

although i got it working earlier int he day, it failed to load into wow when i actually wanted to play in the evenining.

i noticed the overlay was showing up in wlm11 so i thought that might be the problem, and put wlm11 on the blacklist by creating a nooverlay file in the wlm folder. which did remove the overlay from wlm11 but did not make it work in wow.

i'm not sure what's causing the problem, and i don't see any tickets on the mumble sites related to it or how to fix it. google brings up nothing.

i tried disabling dx11 in wow again but that didn't work, and it was working in dx11 mode earlier yesterday.

if anyone has any ideas on how to get mumble to work with wow consistently let me know. :)

I've got it on all my characters by accident, just by questing :D

when i help people level i go out of my way and waste their time making them get it.

i forget the details of how to do it or which zone you get it from now though unfortunately.

i also have my staff of the archmage vargoth for RP which is the 1337est quest/vainity item in the game imho. my bro went and did the quests on his 80 preists to get it last night just for the staff. i noticed they nerfed all the similar quest items in wotlk to only work in certain zones which is a shame because i would've collected them for RPz.

man blizzard are taking their time removing the authenticator from my account, got a new phone and forgot to copy the pin or remove the auth before i got new phone :(

I emailed them and they took over a month without reply, re-emailed them, had it removed in 24 hours.

THEN they flagged my account as suspicious and made me reset my password 24 hours later :rofl:

Ahh, the great staff ^^

For robot chicken: Kill mobs in Feralas, Tanaris (or Zul'Farrak) and The Hinterlands. In each zone there is one green-quality "This item starts a quest", OOXSomething Distress Beacon. When you've done those three escort quests, you can go pick your chicken up in Booty Bay, the quest is called "An OOX of your own". Enjoy!

Also, the pet is NOT soulbound, so if you get it on alts where you don't really care about pets, you can sell it for usually a nice amount of gold!

ahh right on.

i'm starting to wonder what's going on with these recruits. they don't jump in mumble or say much in /g and then /gquit the next day, like why even bother asking for an invite in the first place?

You can't expect everyone to chat in guild. in my raiding guild there can be 50+ people on and no one may say anything or an hour or 2. Maybe people join to check it out and if your guild seems like its not worth saying in they people leave. Thats the joys of having a guild people come and people go.

I still haven't decided hunter or druid as my main.

Advantages :

Hunter-

Rolls during raids are uncontested in my guild because we don't have any hunters.. and very VERY few enhancement shamans..

Pet to level with while I'm leveling.

I enjoy 'the hunt' and having something with me at all times.. in the form of a pet.

Druid-

I love transforming and having alt forms.. flight form will be amazing.

I like the versatility of the class.

I enjoy druid immensely, just as much as I enjoy hunter.

Disadvantages:

Hunter-

People always complain that hunters are to blame for extra pulls during runs..

No 'travel' forms, so extra expenditures on mounts, other than my initial mount because I'll be a worgen.

Having to fight for the pets I want and .. hunting them down.

Druid-

Contested roles during guild runs because we have other people who use the same stats as druids..

... that's.. it I think?

:| Argh. This is a tough choice.

Either way, I'll be a worgen and a leather worker and skinner.

^ I'd go for Druid (well my main is a druid so ...), I've played a hunter and while I love the class mechanics and overall "feeling" I HATE having to feed my pet all the time. Plus, if you like AOE damage like I do, Druid is just awesome : Barkskin + Starfall, wait for mobs to gather around you then Hurricane to death, it's just too much fun when you're farming leather.

I can't wait for tomorrow. New content will be welcomed. Going to be leveling my Warrior with the wife and then probably a Worgen Druid with her as well. Will eventually level the Shaman an the Mage.

    • Zed 1.7.2 has landed with updated OpenCode models, bug fixes and other improvements by David Uzondu Zed 1.7.2 recently landed on the stable release channel, bringing a host of AI-related features including automatic context compaction and settings-based skill management, along with other things like better Markdown preview rendering and custom git commands in the graph view. Starting with the AI stuff, the developers introduced "/compact", a command that basically summarizes your conversation history on demand. This tool prevents your active chat window from hitting token limits by compressing older parts of the dialogue into a brief overview. In addition to that, the team relocated skill management to the settings UI, improving how the application communicates errors regarding those skills, and updated the OpenCode model roster to support DeepSeek V4 Flash, MiniMax M3, Qwen 3.7 Plus, and Nemotron 3 Ultra Free. External agent users can also monitor context window cost metrics and delete individual sessions directly from their history. Right-clicking ref labels in the git graph now opens a context menu that runs different actions against selected targets, kind of how VS Code does it. Here are some of the bug fixes this new release brings: The active agent fails to auto-select when creating a new git worktree. A scrollbar unexpectedly appears on wrapped code blocks in the agent chat. Collapse indicators for project headers appear when performing sidebar searches. Bracketed ellipsis title prefixes fail to show the ellipsis icon properly. Project icons render incorrectly in the recent projects picker. Diff hunk controls appear inside non-editable commit view multibuffers. The software update button hangs indefinitely on the downloading stage. Restoring an agent terminal in a remote project triggers a sudden crash. Splitting a pane that contains an active commit view causes a crash. Linux Wayland freezes when trying to read the clipboard from laggy external apps. Zed is a "newish" code editor trying to break the massive stronghold VS Code has on the developer community. Funny enough, the editor was created by former GitHub employees who worked on the Atom text editor (which Microsoft killed in 2022, several years after it bought GitHub). The project officially hit version 1.0 back in April, introducing platform parity for Windows and Linux alongside deep support for DeepSeek-V4-Pro.
    • 26H2 absolutely will support ARM Windows just not on devices that came with 26H1. This is evident by the fact I am running 26H2, which on my MacBook Neo and Surface Pro 12 (inch), within a VM.

    • The FIFA World Cup is not US centric.
    • It’s amusing how Microsoft is pushing IT admins as if this was a major, game-changing update. In reality, it’s just an enablement package that bumps the build number, which is disappointing compared to the more substantial 22H2 and 24H2 releases. Technically, 25H2, 26H1, and the upcoming 26H2 are essentially the same, differing only in support schedules. They could have included the Windows K2 improvements here, but chose not to. The era of Windows being in the backburner continues, and this 26H2 release feels like an afterthought. Shame, Nadella, shame.
