IMPORTANT: Upcoming tests will be announced on twitter.com/corecraft_shiro. | |
Realmlist will be given out in #corecraft during the test period, | |
just read the topic during an ongoing test and you'll get | |
connectivity info. | |
IMPORTANT2: One of the most important parts of testing the server is making it | |
crash, to identify crash points and patch them up. If you don't like | |
the instability that comes along with that and sometimes being stuck | |
for an hour doing nothing, then testing is probably not for you! | |
You can read more about crashes and their purpose at our blog: | |
https://www.worldofcorecraft.com/content/crash-course-crashes | |
1. What we want you to test | |
Generally speaking the intent of upcoming tests are to try things, watch them | |
break, and then report found issues to us. Anything you want to test (given it | |
doesn't break the terms) is fair game. Just remember that you have to report | |
found issues as well, or they will remain issues! | |
Some tests we have further directives or requests with things that need extra | |
attention. They will appear in the irc channel's topic during the test. | |
2. How to report bugs | |
There are two type of reports: | |
1. Things that are indisputable bugs. | |
This includes content that has broken, spells that don't do what they should, | |
and so on. In other words, things that are explicitly stated to work one way, | |
yet doesn't. | |
These issues can simply be reported with the guidelines listed below. | |
2. Things that seem incorrect. | |
This might be mobs in a heroic doing more damage than you seem to recall they | |
should, or a mechanic working opposite to what you think is correct. | |
Basically, the implementation is working without flaws, yet it does not do | |
what you anticipated it to. | |
When you report these kind of issues, you need some form of evidential basis. | |
Our implementations are based on research, and re-researching it for each | |
report that claims they remember it differently is not viable. For that | |
reason we require the person reporting it to provide basic evidence of | |
his/her claim. | |
Good claims are videos or screenshots of retail TBC, decent claims are | |
well-discussed topics from reputable forums at the time, and poor claims | |
are for example wowwiki articles not citing resources. | |
Report guidelines: | |
When reporting issues, make sure you clearly state how to reproduce the | |
issue, as well as any circumstances or states your character was in. | |
For example, the following is a poor report: | |
"Mark of the Wild doesn't work for me." (DON'T) | |
A better report could be: | |
"Mark of the Wild does not give me its advertised resistance. I have no other | |
buff or debuff on me except for cat form. I'm wearing full PvP gear. This is | |
fully reproducable by creating a night elf druid, getting PvP gear and | |
switching to cat form." (DO) | |
To submit a report, please visit our bugtracker at | |
https://github.com/ccshiro/cc-buglist/issues | |
If you don't have an account make one. After you've made sure no one else has | |
reported the same issue, press New issue and type your issue out. Please | |
consider revisiting your issue until it has been marked as solved as further | |
input might be required. Thanks! | |
3. Terms, dos and don'ts | |
== Don't try to intentionally sabotage for the server or other testers. We're | |
here to make corecraft the best server we can. Be nice and respectful to | |
fellow participants. | |
== Don't gank or grief people trying leveling content. During the test there | |
are options to roll a low-level character to help test the leveling | |
experience. Griefing these players will get you banned from testing. | |
== Don't use cheats, hacks or exploits. Our anti-cheat system is disabled to | |
make it impossible for people to gauge its workings pre-release. If you have | |
some exploit or cheat that you wish to share with us, so that we can protect | |
against it, please contact shiro in a PM instead of just trying it on the | |
server. | |
4. How to get your account | |
If you've not yet typed !account in #corecraft, do so now. You'll be messaged | |
privately by ccbot. To him you need to (in private chat) type the following: | |
"I have read and accept the content of the paste." He will then give you your | |
account. Please note that you can only get one account, and that we cannot help | |
you recover lost information (so save the account details somewhere). | |
5. Tips and useful tricks | |
== Macro to learn all spells from any trainer (not sure where this one | |
originates from, so can't give proper credits): | |
/run LoadAddOn"Blizzard_TrainerUI" f=ClassTrainerTrainButton f.e = 0 if f:GetScript"OnUpdate" then f:SetScript("OnUpdate", nil)else f:SetScript("OnUpdate", function(f,e) f.e=f.e+e if f.e>.01 then f.e=0 f:Click() end end)end | |
== In-game command to level up weapon skills and such: | |
(NOTE: You need to target yourself first) | |
.maxskill | |
== In-game commands to manage your pet: | |
(NOTE: You need to target your pet first) | |
.pet loyalty 6 | |
.pet tp 350 | |
.pet maxhappy |
NOTE: Please read the "seen a movement bug?" below. | |
## Seen a movement bug? | |
Please target the NPC that is bugging, and while the bug is happening, type | |
".movegens --verbose" in chat (without quotation marks) and take a print screen | |
of the output and the broken NPC visible in the screenshot. Any movement bug not | |
including this will be ignored (as we can't really debug them)! | |
## Goals of the test | |
1) Test whatever you like. If we're looking for something extra to be tested, we'll write | |
about it in the #corecraft topic. | |
2) Issues we need help with are listed here: | |
https://github.com/ccshiro/cc-buglist/issues?q=milestone%3A%22Needs+Testing%22 | |
3) We've also added material vendors if you want to test professions (they can | |
be found in the middle of Shattrath). | |
4) As always, crashing the server and finding bugs in general is welcome! So, | |
anything you want to test is fine (within the rule-set). | |
## How to report a bug | |
# Step 1 | |
Make sure you've read the ccbot's paste ( http://pastebin.com/QDjQBrU0 ) so you | |
know what constitutes a bug and what needs to appear in your report. | |
# Step 2 | |
Make sure your report is actually a bug and if evidence needs to be included | |
(e.g. you're claiming something to be true) please provide it. Or your issue | |
will most likely be closed. | |
# Step 3 | |
Visit our issue tracker https://github.com/ccshiro/cc-buglist/issues and use the | |
search functionality to make sure no one has reported your issue already. | |
Duplicate reports make it really annoying to organize and work with the issue | |
tracker. Please help us out by putting some time into using the search | |
functionality. | |
# Step 4 | |
Now you need to log in or create an account. | |
# Step 5 | |
Press the "New issue" button and submit your issue, describing the steps to | |
reproduce it thoroughly. Make sure your instructions to reproduce the bug are a | |
valid way to trigger it. If having screenshots or videos help explaining the | |
issue, please provide that. | |
## Connection issues? | |
Check the WoC's FAQ for details (Q21). | |
## Lost your password? | |
A lost password, like the bot told you when you got the account, cannot be | |
retrieved or reset. We can give you a new account, however. Preferably you ask | |
us for a new account outside the test period as we are generally busy during. If | |
it's during the test period it doesn't hurt to ask, but we might not respond (or | |
it might take a while until we respond) if we're preoccupied. | |
## What devs are present? | |
If you check the topic of #corecraft you can see what devs are currently | |
present. | |
## Other issues? | |
Ask for help in #corecraft, maybe someone can help you. If you PM a developer | |
expect a delay in response as we're most likely busy during tests. You can also see | |
which developers are present in the topic of #corecraft. | |
