MobMap updated for patch 2.3

Tuesday, November 13. 2007
Patch 2.3 is being rolled out on the US realms right now and bound to be published on the EU realms in half a day - time for an updated version of MobMap and the MobMapUpdater.

MobMap v1.56 contains a few changes and improvements besides being compatible with 2.3, the biggest change being an update to the database format. So whether you're downloading 1.56 via the MobMapUpdater or updating manually, make sure to grab a new database copy right afterwards.

Updating the database a little bit more frequently during the next days might be a good idea anyway, since patch 2.3 brings new content to the table that's to be inserted in the MobMap database. And of course: please keep uploading your data to make this possible in the first place!


changelog v1.56:
- changed: slight database format changes to compensate for growing amounts of data and growing ID ranges. You will need to get an updated database copy!
- fixed: an error in the mob name search that prevented some specific mob names from being found
- added: a new zone filtering textbox for the mob positions
- added: item names in the drop rate database can now be linked in chat
- changed: toc version number updated for patch 2.3
- changed: the standard MobMap button placement on the world map has been changed to make room for a new dropdown menu added by Blizzard in patch 2.3

[update] Another quick update of the MobMapUpdater has been released, fixing an error that prevented the balloon tooltip settings in automatic mode from being used correctly
