It's very useful that you share the information from Wowpedia here, and even info from the exe strings
This makes me think it's amazing that Blizzard still actively develops this game and user interface after almost 10 years

Keep up the good work p3lim =)

Unfortunately, UnitDistanceSquared only works on group members (party and raid). It does exactly what you would expect - returns the square of the distance to the unit in yards. Its second return is false if the unit cannot be checked.

UnitPosition has the same restrictions. It returns exact x, y, z, mapID coordinates for any group members (and yourself). For example, right now in Ashran I'm getting (4000.6, -4066.8, 1047687, 1191) as the return values.

These do have quite the interesting implications, even if they don't work on hostiles, pets, or ungrouped players.

I'd be pretty surprised if it were any other way, as Blizzard has made it abundantly clear over the years that they don't want addons having access to the locations of mobs or enemy players. With an accurate distance, you could easily triangulate the position.

z value returned by UnitPosition is bugged sometimes. I made a few steps around in horde garrison and value changed from 7000 to 13000.

There's what's going on internally: http://paste2.org/8jBAmI65

Same restrictions as GetPlayerMapPosition() and real coordinates could've already been calculated with GetCurrentMapZone(). The only difference is we have access to the Z coordinate now.

Code:

y = (float)(signed int)sub_48AA75(pos2.Y * 10.0) * 0.1;

_z = 7 * ((signed int)ffloor(pos2.X) ^ ((signed int)ffloor(y) + 3));

pos2.Z = (float)(_z & 0xFFFFF);

Looks like the Z coordinate is still being worked on and they're throwing out a garbage value for now.

I have a feeling that Z coordinate is soo gonna get disabled for addons.

Anyway how did you get that C code?

It was linked to in the post I quoted. It looks like they ran it through a decompiler.

Yep, Hex-Rays. I was wondering why z value was wrong and decided to check that out.

It seems that GetItemQualityColor(itemId) will return 1,1,1,ffffffff for everything
For example:

Code:

print(GetItemQualityColor(56104))

print(GetItemQualityColor(115744))

will return

Code:

1,1,1,ffffffff

1,1,1,ffffffff

So it's a bug or a new feature?

GetAddOnInfo is removed? How are we supposed to get information about addons? o_O

no, it just takes the index now instead of index and name.

Ah, okay, the color highlighting did not make that clear. That still seems like a bad change, though. Now if we want to check for the presence of an addon we have to loop over all addons to find it, instead of being able to query it by name...

This is usage documentation that is in the game (error reporting telling you how to use the api properly).

For removed/added api, see my other thread.

I'm pretty sure that was always meant to be used with a quality index rather than item ID. That's how I've always used it, anyway.

http://wowpedia.org/API_GetItemQualityColor

It doesn't take itemID, it takes quality (0-7).

It might use continent coordinates, try that.

GetWorldLocFromMapPos is not a new function, it took the output from GetPlayerMapPosition and converted it to instance coordinates (and wasn't reliable enough to use).

Is IS new function, but it doesn't work properly.

No, it's not a new function. It's been in the game since at least the time they added the timeless isles.

Go try it on live.

This topic doesn't document new APIs, but rather the official documentation of APIs (the ones you would get in an error when using the API incorrectly).

For new APIs see this topic: http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=49499

Doesn't want to create a topic for this, so just asking here:
Console command "ExportInterfaceFiles art" is dumping all files in the same directory instead of separate among more than 90 folders like on MoP, any one knows what's going on?
